#1 " Some funny comments. I didn't reverse the video. I wonder has anybody downloaded and reversed it to see if it looks more or less natural? I imagine it would look super weird played in reverse. Should have moonwalked in at the beginning. That would have confused everyone.?" - video owner comment on ppl calling it fake
Personally, I've seen so many things in my life, nothing can surprise me

#2 The zoom away from the face while talking is a give away. Also the unusual juggling style obscures any unnatural movement. He also looks at the cubes he his throwing and not the ones he is catching. And then there is the fact that he solves them all on the same trow.
I am impressed enough by the fact that he scrambles them while juggling.
But you're right, some people have too much time and learn all sorts of crazy skills that have been previously thought to be impossible.
I tend to go with the least crazy option, and that is he practiced to throw the cubes in an awkward style at the beginning that looks like he is catching them when played in reverse. Seems more likely than the feat described in the title.

Ok, I admit I got a little obsessed and researched a little bit further.
First thing I noticed when viewing it in slomo is, that he does not really twist the cubes at all. That made me reject my reverse hypothesis.
The current world record for a one handed solve of a RC is 7 seconds. He would have to have done 3 world record breaking solves simultaneously with alternating hands while juggeling - highly improbable.
Then I punched some permutations into a RC solver and it became clear that some consecutive permutations could not have been achieved by a single move.
The truth seems to be less impressive than I initially thought. I usually do not scream CGI whenever I do not understand something, but in this case it feels appropriate. He performs his trick in front of a building of a visual effect company, after all.

Hope I didn't spoil the fun.

I don't think so.
#7 you got me, I went back and looked several times!

You do realize the clip is played in reverse, though?
