How long does it take to ride a unicycle?
<<< previous post 2 minute read
Mike Boyd has a mixed platter of skills. To name just a few, he can stack dice, split an apple with his bare hands, and break a glass with his voice. I would say he’s a talented guy, but he’s just persistent. That may sound mean, but he makes that point over and over again on his wildly successful YouTube channel.
At the time of writing, he has 3 million subscribers, and oh boy, has he earned them. In each of his 175 videos (or at least most), he records himself learning a different skill and records how long it takes.
In one of his first videos, he learns to ride a unicycle for 30 seconds; he assembles his lonely wheel, dons a bike helmet, and, with pride and trepidation, precede to fall over like a top-heavy toddler. As he flails around, the timer totals up his practice time.
How long do you think it takes him? I reckon it’d take me at least 50 hours and one divorce (I’m not married). It takes him, however, 2 hours and 38 minutes. That’s less time that it takes to watch Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer.
He hasn’t got a circus tent in his veins, so how does he learn it so quickly? I think a couple of things are in play here. Firstly, he practices with the intent to get better. He’s constantly striving to achieve his clear goal. He’s not just idly practising for the sake of it.
Secondly, maybe learning things don’t take as long as we think. That's the message of this whole channel. How long do you think it took him to break a glass with his voice reliably? Just 4 hours 29 minutes. He learns to stack 10 dice on top of each other in just 5 hours and 16 minutes. He also learns to spring a deck of cards. If it makes you feel any better, that took him longer than either of those skills - 9 hours and 32 minutes.
We often think of how long we've been learning something - it took me 7 months to learn a Danny Goldsmith routine - but if we counted the actual practice time, it's probably a lot less than it feels.
Don't take my or Mike's word for it. Give it a go yourself! Get a specific goal in mind, get a timer and get practising!
Most of the time, I lose count or forget to count all the time up properly, but the very act of timing does something to my practice. I focus more and actually TRY to get better rather than just go through the motions.
Check out his channel. It’s entertaining and inspiring. If you try this, let me know how it goes!
Until next time,
Stay magical.

At Scanner Hacker Crypto Recovery we help victims attempt to recover stolen funds using a combination of technical, legal, and investigative methods. Here’s how we work and what you can expect:
1. Immediate evidence preservation. As soon as you contact us we advise you to preserve all transaction IDs (TXIDs), wallet addresses, screenshots, email/chat logs, and any payment or exchange receipts — that information is essential for tracing and legal actions.
2. Blockchain tracing & forensic analysis. Our forensic team uses blockchain analytics to map the movement of stolen coins across addresses and services. That tracing helps identify cash-out points (exchanges, mixers, or custodial wallets) and builds a chain of activity investigators can follow.
3. Exchange engagement & freezing attempts. When traces point to regulated exchanges or custodial services, we contact those platforms with detailed evidence and legal requests to freeze the funds or provide account information — cooperation from the exchange is often crucial.
4. Law enforcement & legal support. We coordinate with local law enforcement and, when needed, crypto-savvy attorneys to file reports (IC3/FBI or local equivalents) and pursue subpoenas or asset-seizure orders. Public agencies often have tools and authority that private teams don’t, so we work alongside them.
5. Technical wallet recovery (when applicable). If the loss involved lost keys, stolen seeds, or compromised wallets, our specialists can attempt technical recovery using forensic methods and password-recovery techniques — success depends on the specific circumstances and available clues.
6. Realistic expectations & transparency. Recovery is not guaranteed. Success depends on speed, where the funds moved, whether they passed through mixers/privacy chains, and how cooperative third parties are. We provide a clear assessment up front and avoid promises we can’t keep.
7. How to get started. Send us:
(a) the TXIDs and wallet addresses,
(b) all communications with the scammer,
© any exchange account details (if applicable), and
(d) a short timeline of events. We’ll do a free preliminary trace and explain the next steps, estimated costs, and legal options.
8. Safety warning. Beware secondary “recovery” scams. Government agencies like the CFTC and consumer protection offices warn that fraudsters sometimes pose as recovery experts to extract more money. We never ask you to send additional cryptocurrency as a condition for starting a trace; all fees and milestones are made explicit in writing.
