Florida redshirt junior defensive back Nick Washington is one of the many talented members of the Gators’ lockdown secondary unit, but his ballhawking defensive skills pale in comparison to what he can do with a Rubik’s Cube.
But seriously. Washington assembled a Rubik’s Cube in less than 50 seconds in a short video posted by the football program’s Twitter account:

Nick's best time is 48 seconds. Can you beat him?

On Dec. 1, 2015, Lucas Etter, a 14-year-old from Kentucky, broke the Guinness world record by solving the cube in 4.90 seconds. Washington has some work to do if he wants to reach that status, but hey — it’s pretty difficult to find someone that can do something like this, and if anything, it’s definitely a cool party trick.
