I was wondering if the people who can get the rubik's cube under 45 seconds did you actually figure it all out by yourself. Or did you find out how through books, email, websites etc? My best time is 90 seconds but I can't seem to beat it the way I do it. I don't want any one telling me ways to do it faster because I want to find out for myself. But I am wondering are there certain ways to achieve faster times. Please just answer yes or no. Also I have just ordered the 5x5x5 and I was wondering how much harder is it than the 4x4x4. Thanks.
