Cubist aims for Rubik record
Colour-blind teen has solved cube in under 7 seconds

ok, the only way i've ever solved a rubik's cube is by removing all the stickers and putting the colours rightfully back together! now, if i was REALLY smart, i would just leave the stickers off and it would be permanently solved! alas... rubik's cubes are one of those things that are cool for the first 2 minutes and then they get put in a box and forgotten about.

this colour-blind kid solving the cube in record time is pretty impressive but a totally blind person solving one would be even cooler! they even have braille cubes for just such a scenario! and to prove that it might be possible, here's a story about a blind guy accomplishing a daring quest:
