From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jeff Varasano is an American speedcuber and pizzeria owner. He is the creator and owner of Varasano's Pizzeria in Atlanta, Georgia.[1][2]

On October 8, 1981, Jeff set the Rubik's Cube US Record at age 15, solving the puzzle in 24.67 seconds.[3][4] The same year, he had previously published his methods in "Jeff Conquers The Cube in 45 Seconds, And You Can Too!".[5] This record-breaking solve was completed on a live ABC7 News report. He stated at the time to the reporter that it was an "unofficial record".[6] For numerous reasons, this solve is not recognized by the WCA.
