- Two puzzles similar solution. Another mind boggling, impossible looking eye-catcher made by Jean Claude Constantin. Can you imagine how to get the spark plug out of the frame? One is always wiser after seeing the solution but in reality, it's tricky even if you have the right intention. In this video, I explain you why.

I hate this type... it's not really a puzzle so much as it's just a trick lock.
It seems like all the impossible looking puzzles just need a good smack to solve them. Great video by the way!
+Joselina Bueno 😂
Joselina Bueno where thoughtful contemplation fails, brute force will prevail.
I'm gay..
Brings sense into why they used to be so violent
Small schmek
So I found out that if you throw it across the room a couple times it uhhhhhh unlocks, well that's the puzzle.
I think you misunderstood 😁
wow hilarious!
no man, you just said to break it lmao
that's not a puzzle that's just breaking shit
But hey it works! XD
dude... You should have millions of subscribers man.... I cant stop watching!
I love how you explain and show every detail! Very interesting!
I have had the one with the bolt for maybe 15 or more years. :) I saw when the spark plug version came out but I never picked it up since it's basically the same puzzle.

Wow just look at your views and subscribers Mr Puzzle, i remember i found you when you had only maybe a few thousand subs. Amazing Christmas gift for you.
I do enjoy watching you work on your puzzles
Glad to hear that!
just want to say mr puzzle thanks it's always.fun to watch you do your thing cheers
I've watched these for quite a while, and I go back to them occasionally. I only noticed just now that I wasn't subscribed.
♫♫ now I'll just break my Rubick's puzzle and rearrange the color as I want it to be, well thank you for an inspirational video, captain!!! ♫♫
Man how can all these people dislike these vids? This guy is the man and more clever than 99.99% in this braindead society. Give the guy some love.
so you took it apart.....genius pure genius....WOW...
I really enjoy watching your videos. 😊
Thanks!
Thanks! my dad gave this puzzle to my boyfriend 3 years back, took me finding this video to solve it haha
Me too. I haven't been getting notifications for the channel, I was wondering what had happened. Will need to re click the bell and catch up.
Click! Click! Click!
You are not the only one having this problem. :-/
I un-subbed then re-subbed and put notifications back on. Will let you know if it worked.
Yes, that would be very interesting.
Just comment below the next video, I will see it!
Thanks!
Hmm, strange i am getting them just so you know it is not happening to everyone
Draeas Talonsbane Do you watch this a lot and isn't subscribed ?.
CZcams kinda "subs" you to the channel giving you notifications.
Thanks for the help!
Interesting puzzles !
I think i love your job
@MrPuzzle What do you do of all these puzzles that you buy? Do you have a puzzle shop or plan on opening one or do you give it away to your friends/family?
So far I just keep them in my room.
Ok
When is the Mr. Puzzle × Fleb Collab Mixtape supposed to drop, bruh?
Mixtape!?
Mr.Puzzle yeah, man! Bring them bars on, we wanna listen to your banging flow on a Young Metro beat!
Or do you two got beef?!?! Someone get Complex on the phone!
I'm super late but i'm definitely here for that collab!
That's a good and fun puzzle!
It is!
Nice channel, keep going!
Puzzle Me A Jigsaw I subbed keep it up
I'm still before the reveal. My guess on this puzzle is that they both feature an additional threaded section (in the head for the bolt and center body for spark plug). This seems the only logical conclusion if we take the puzzles at face value and assume that we truly can't open the frame or displace the guide bars.
EDIT: Having watched further I was disappointed that the solution was to displace the guide bars using a hidden latch. Really not my type of puzzle, but an excellent design for those that are into hidden latches.
your videos are great
I'm not big o puzzles but as soon as I saw them I new you could remove one of the bars to remove the screw and spark plug
Best nap I've had this year. How did it end?
Hello I was wondering have u ever tried the Excalibur puzzle
I really like to see the the solutions of the different puzzles. But what I really like to see, is your proces of solving. So make a video of you trying to solve the puzzles, and then explain it as well. The proces is even more likely to see. Like Chris Ramsay on his channel.
I used to tear my Rubix Cube apart and put it back together...that's not the same as "solving" it. This puzzle can't be solved.
Yet, somehow he figured out the solution. Therefor he solved it. So you're wrong.
Yes It Is Because You Have To Figure Out How To Take It Apart A Rubix Cube Is Easy You Just Rip It Apart
I love the way German folk say Fleshlight... I mean flashlight! ^_^
Hahahaha, just trying to imagine how a fleshlight might look like. 😂
Give it a google... hahaha ^_^
please don't
The power of Google compels you!
It’s a sex toy 😂😂
Some one should buy multiple spark plug variation puzzles and take them to a mechanic and hand them to them for their engine tune up and video tape their reactions...also a good way to test the mechanic abilities of the mechanic!
The bolt one I guessed by looking at it. Kinda easy but the spark plug one got me
So, Any one here want some Popcorn and coffee while watching this AMAZING Puzzle video?
Better solution:
Boil the whole assembly, let the wood expand, and the pins will spread far enough to allow the head of the bolt to escape.
If needed, put the assembly in a hydraulic press while still malleable, and skew the frame to remove the bolt. This process can be used for the spark plug as well.
If I missed it sorry, but where do you buy them?
helloo mr puzzle, i'm from indonesia
Hi,
from Germany!
very good channel 👍
Thanks!
They're all sold out on the links provided in the description..anyone know where this is in stock?
I still hate when you have these kind of things in these videos. This is essentially what happens when someone wants to make a puzzle but is incapable of coming up with something challenging so they have to put the entire mechanism 'behind the curtain', so to speak. It's more like a lame magic trick than a puzzle.
+SgtSupaman Exactly. It bugs me when people call these puzzles. There's no logical course of thought that would lead you to the solution. A puzzle means you have all the pieces, and it's up to you to figure out what to do with them. In this, there's no logical reason for anything in it. I always think these are going to be clever, but they're just pointless. It looks like something some kid would show his parents to try and prove he's smarter than they are.
Yes, but in order to appreciate a really complex well constructed puzzle and give it a high rating , it must be weighed against its opposite.
If ALL puzzles were a 5 on a 5 scale they would lose their loftiness with nothing of lesser quality to compare them to.
A good puzzle is made even better when it is compared to one of lesser quality.
And again...reading some bright comments really makes me LMAO. Good hints on solving Mr.Puzzle, thumbs up! :-)
hello welcome to mr pasel !!! :D
That was very unique I enjoyed that. Things that make you go duhhh
Wow, Mr. Puzzle is getting 2+ million views on his vids now!
amazing dude :D
Mr. Puzzle, where did you get the spark plug version you have? The ones in the links appear to be a lot cheaper in quality.
Amazon has it
These puzzles are just like the "Escape from Alcatraz" Puzzle with the ball bearing and four metal rods.
That would be a great item for customers to use while they wait for auto repair
I notice someone has already called those out as not really puzzles, but not done well explaining why.
A puzzle is solvable, with available information and logic.
These are more like magic tricks, that are easily operated by anyone who knows the hidden details, but which trickery is in no way visible or obvious under normal observation or motions.
In effect, these are akin to a magician's "7 solid welded steel rings", that are actually a pair of 2 permanently joined rings, a set of 3, and two rings with openings. With proper sleight of hand, a theatrical trickery routine can present the appearance of 7 solid welded joined rings, and let audience test they are that so long as the audience buys only being allowed to test 2 or 3 joined rings at once. In this case the wood frame hides the movable magnet, whereas with the steel rings, it's the actor's hands hiding the secret trick.
Build the same parts from milled lucite, such that the lock magnet sliders and the channel for them are visible but not obvious, and this magic trick becomes fuzzier as to having traits closer to also being a puzzle.
The only non-destructive way to open these bolt or spark plug tricks requires guessing the secret and trying to hit in different directions (as the magnet might slide several different ways, or there could be a screw mechanism on the end of a rod, or a metal piece or magnet that relies on a ring the actor has and others do not to move the hidden lock), just as some people can outguess some stage magician tricks. A lock could also mimic some retail store theft deterrent systems, and require being moved close to a strong electromagnet to toggle lock positions. IOW, it's practical to build several variants that would not be as easy to operate by people who'd seen this video, but would appear identical outwardly.
Finally got out the spark plug, can finally mow my lawn
😁
if you unscrew the terminal on the spark plug will it not come out without removing the bars?
I found out how to do the bolt before the spoiler break 😁👍
does the sparkplug work?
No, it's just a lazy spark plug that lies around the house mooching off MrPuzzle.
very well
I just ran the inside nut up towards the head of the bolt a little bit then used a wrench to tighten the outside nut until it pulled the bolt through the pins,then the bolt was free.
I want to see how it was made...
Angle grinder
Yes, that is not a puzzle...
And you are not an intelligent person. 'Cause, yes. It IS a puzzle.
Its not really a good puzzle. Its almost like cheating.
Peter Griffin Ok, then maybe you can Explain what you Think a puzzle really is.
Noobs
A puzzle worthy of the name requires no hidden information from the eye for its solution. For example, in the 'Tricky Dick' puzzle, one could theoretically map out the topology directly from the video without actually handling the object.
The word 'impossible' is also misleading in that it entails that the geometry of its arrangement hides some exceptional configuration that escapes ordinary visual logic which, if escaped, allows its solution. In other words, it's 'impossible if you think in an ordinary geometric fashion'. The tetrahedron-in-a-cage puzzle is a proper puzzle in that respect.
it's not a fair puzzle at the very least...
there's no good indicator that you have to smack it like that...
i don't think any of you thought..ok...let's gently tap it like that and a pin would come out...no
you can be as smart as you want...there's no manual stating the rules...there's no clue that if you tap it one will come off
Ju häv ä värri obwius akzent... ;) I like it....
That spark plugs ground electrode must be way out of spec with all that banging around. It might be time for a replacement soon, it looks a little tired anyways. At least just check the puzzles user manual for their recommended gap measurement just to be sure. Keep it running smooth ya know?
Mais um inscrito meu like 💎🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒💖😁
I wonder if yo screw it from the middle outwards so it pushes the wood or maybe the bars bend or move! I think the wood or bars move and then can come back!
EDIT: I was wrong :(
They must have glued the top and bottom part of the wooden frame.. clever..
The REAL 'trick' to the puzzle is HOW the original assembler, cut,milled, drilled etc. to disguise the workings. A working piece of artwork, imho !
I instantly knew how to open the one on the left just by looking at it
Rly? I thought the pins had to stay in place. Weak.
My first instinct wasn't that far off from what you did... Minus the bar jiggling. Basically, my idea was to tighten both parts of the bolt/nut around the bars, and then SLAM the bottom part so it forces it to take the bars with it in the short movement upwards... A bit brute, yes... But I have this weird glee at solving puzzles in manners not unlike the Gordian knot.
nice
This is an everyday thing for a mechanic.
So I imagine someone's gotten angry at that first puzzle and just threw it across the room then it opened and their like oh shit
I'm curious to know if you're actually narrating while solving these puzzles or do you go back after you've recorded and then dub. Just curious.
I worked out that there was a magnet inside before you mentioned it =)
Why does it hurt when I pee? Now that’s a puzzle
This is silly. I thought in the rules you could not disassemble the metal retainers or the wooden frame but had to figure out how to maneuver the bolt or spark plug around them. You could just as easily loosen the inside nut off until the head pushed the end piece of the frame off. Or better yet just take a hammer and beat the crap out of the thing.
Interesting... I hadn't seen any instructions that describe things you are allowed to do or things you shouldn't do. Of course, it goes without saying that you shouldn't break anything in order to solve the puzzle, but these puzzle solutions do not involve any breakage.
Do you have access to the instructions for these puzzles?
To be clear, I think these are a little bit on the "lame" side, but some puzzles have to be easier than others... they can't all be at the same level of complexity.
I bet a cheap company put in the false rules to make it unsolvable or to weed out novices etc
No.
Nut hehe
Hi
Dafuq?! That first one's definitely no puzzle. You'd think it has a way to solve by unscrewing bolts certain way or sumthin, but noooo there's a tricky pin u need to smack. Fkn lame. It's a trick, not a puzzle.
T. N. If You Examinine It You Learn The Solution Hence A Puzzle
I agree, pretty stupid.
Michael Schemmel
Essays have a solution if you examine the directions thoroughly. Does that mean that essays are puzzles?
It’s a fools puzzle(trick puzzle)[FAKE] lol
Agreed , not really a puzzle imo. Puzzles to me require thought and logic to crack. A faulty or trick pin is neither of those, basically is like me breaking it with a hammer and saying there puzzle solved.
Yes it can.
Bloody funking puzzle
Zeig bitte mal deine Puzzle Sammlung :)
The trick to get it out - fucking smack it
I'M BAMBOOZLED BY THIS PUZZLE
Can you please have a little window showing your face in your videos while solving the puzzles? :3
Interesting idea
Mr.Puzzle yaayyy got my 1st reply from you... i love your vids btw 👍
+Little Bunny - Great idea!
+Mr.Puzzle - If done right, it has a very nice effect. You can see an example here: czcams.com/video/YcpSvHpbHQ4/video.html He uses this in many of the videos on his channel.
The one thing to watch out for is to position things (puzzle, cameras) so that the little window of you, does not block any parts of the puzzle as you're manipulating the puzzle and talking about it.
I agree. It's really hard to masturbate watching them otherwise.
Little Bunny shnpokeryuer
the trick was 1 move- how does that equate with a 3/5 on your personal scale?
I'm buying this just for the free spark plug.
Link in the description. ;)
But if you buy it, you aren't getting a free spark plug. That's kind of what "buying" means.
cooles Video
The point is, the wood cube made people think it’s solid. Rarely will people think of a mechanism inside a wood. That’s a mind trick. People who disliked this must have underestimated the mind trick.
Are you interested in cars? I see you said the one with the spark plug was your favorite.
Even if I work in the automotive industry, I have to admit not too much. 😅
But a little 😉
Mr.Puzzle what do you do in the car industry?
I am working as a development engineer for a company that is developing and producing panoramic roofs.
Mr.Puzzle oh, interesting.
1:46 "Keep in mind that knowing the solution cannot be reversed!" This bottle of roofies I have begs to differ!
Forget Me Now's czcams.com/video/dIgmblf_Ufs/video.html
Now guys what we learned?
If you cant solve a problem or a puzzle just try to break it !!!
7:34 go to the best part!
You know, some people get a real kick out of this kind of stuff.
Those things can drive you insane, so easy when you know but impossible when you don't.
would be more clever if the top of the nut was a cap threaded or the bottom bolt was magnetic to release a latch holding the pin .
Also works on some people too, just smack them upside the head.
The bolt is a good option because it has red herrings, or at least, the perception of them.
Tnx my friend, I found out if you are boring and getting angry just throw it, and thats it solved hahahaha....
These are in my opinion NOT puzzles.
Well, what should I say.
In my opinion, they are. ;)
All about the fun right! :)
I understand that it doesn't feel like your regular puzzle because once you know how to do it there is nothing really puzzling about it (as with all puzzles) but if you give that to someone, especially the one with the bolt where there are things to screw they will be "puzzled" as what to do with it so it is a puzzle, it's just that the method to actually do it is not as exciting as most.
These are hidden trick devices. They are the new age fake puzzles.
If You solve only one puzzle of this kind, you have idea how to solve every similar puzzle.
Technically speaking I guess they are "puzzles" but lets not play semantics, I think we all know what I meant. And as a kid when someone would give me these types of "puzzles" after I found out the trick I felt NO sense of accomplishment but rather a disgust and sense of the puzzle being a total bullshit trick. I still resent these devices with extreme anger and disappointment.
simple
A carpenter next door just SAWED thru the boxes
.... Honestly it's puzzles like these that I don't like at all, not even trying to solve, solve, or otherwise. Because this puzzle, to figure it out, literally REQUIRES you to be frustrated and it also requires you to supposedly 'give up' on it. You have to apply shock force to it to open it, that's just as similar as trying to break the damn thing. Which isn't fair. Puzzles aren't meant to be broken to solve, or even tried to break to solve. They're meant for optical tricks that play on you, that show it's possible in some amazing fashion. Liking removing a ring from a planted thread and two balls. There's no breaking involved, just a play on your outlook of it. Or even putting two triangle shaped trapezoids together to form a pyramid. It's an optical bending trick. This, this is just to literally put gasoline on a bonfire next to a propane tank..... THAT kind of anger.
I would have just put a spanner on the nut inside the box, got a impact wrench and used it on the nut outside the box, forcing the head to push down on the pins, breaking the pins out of the softer wood.
Ohne scheiß du bist wirklich sympathisch und ich finde es toll das du von Anfang an versucht hast englische Videos zu machen aber wenn das deine einzige praktische Erfahrung ist dann klappt das nicht mit den englischen Video Dreh nicht... Ich mein ich verstehe was du sagen willst aber wenn jedes zweite Wort "ehhhh" ist solltest du dir ernsthaft überlegen die Videos auf deutsch zu drehen mit englischen Untertitel.. oder du scriptest die Episoden was bei dir möglich wäre es wäre nur ein kleiner Zeitaufwand da verbessert sich auch deine englische Grammatik und dein "ehhh" wird weniger.. oder wenn du dafür zu faul bist dann frag jemanden der englisch sprechen kann der das ganze für dich spricht... Ich mein das wirklich nicht böse und ich bin seit Anfang dabei aber bei deiner Größe erwartet man einfach bessere Qualität und deswegen brauchst du im Moment diese Kritik... nimm dir das bitte zu Herzen und denk darüber nach :) ich liebe diesen channel aber ich kann mir meistens echt nur 1 Video angucken...
Whatever you say, Russian person!
