I've got like 3-4 tricks that involve wine glasses. Should I teach them?

Hey Chris, amazing video as always, but I have a suggestion to make, when there are places that are difficult to show on camera because the angle is difficult or there isn't a lot of light instead of trying to show to the viewers take a picture of the drawing, clue or whatever you want to show and display it like a picture in picture for a moment while you continue solving! Keep up the incredible work!

This is one of the most beautiful puzzles you have ever solved. What a craftmanship. So detailed. Piece of art.

Feel there was more that needed to be done. Looks like the coin with the square hole goes to the scorpion. He just did not explore the scorpion at all. Plus never found the jaguar. Need to to do a reexplore this amazing puzzle

That was cooler than the $30, 000 chest. My favorite so far, hands down and by a mile. I think it was the fact that it had the "Indiana Jones" themed treasure hunt with the "Ancient Maya/Aztec" aesthetic vibe kicking PLUS the fact you actually got some treasure at the end with the nice gem! I wouldn't be surprised at all to find that is an actual fasceted precious gemstone of some value. *EDIT:* Jesse's website says the gem is real, it's a type of Irradiated Quartz called "Citrine" (i.e. does not occur in nature). Would have been really sick if it was Fire Opal though, since Fire Opal comes from South/Central America and was precious to the Aztec and Maya. (I dated a gemologist for 3 years back in the day, learned a lot from her). It is also yellow or orange. Emerald would be cool too, but probably too expensive.

*EDIT #2 : PLEASE POST THE FINAL SOLVE OF THIS PUZZLE!!* from a quick review of the comments, you missed the final solve! Comments say it was dealing with the scorpion and the cog-wheel thing and there is still more to solve! Would love to see the "final secret" in an update video! Thanks Chris, Cheers mate! 🍻

The drop of the wine glass and the yell made my day, that was funny :p

[Zenneck]

Has anyone talked about the coin having a square hole and the scorpion having a square peg. I wonder if the coin was placed on it if it would turn and something new would happen

[patman]

This is hands down already the best puzzle I've seen on your channel. I love the concept, the craftsmanship is on another level. This is a piece of art you want to display, it being a puzzle is just a plus.

[lizzmoore]

I don't think you quite solved this. There has got to be one or two more sides. Where is the jaguar/will we get an update on this puzzle solve?

[maurcius]

You haven't completely solved Sundial yet! There's still a secret to uncover 😏

By far Sundial is my most favorite puzzle. It looks phenomenal and the experience is fantastic!

[BrynHarding]

That puzzle is absolutely stunning, the way it looks, the way it moves, the way it sounds, a work of art.

[Sqwince]

lots of close up details with this puzzle I love it. Maybe in the future get a USB microscope or different lens for those close up macro shots if you can.

[olenilsen]

Immediately as you pulled that thing out, I went completely starstruck! I´ve seen you handle some puzzles before, but this is on another level right from the get-go! I love it so much before you even touched it! What a beautiful puzzle!

Now, what I love about your channel, is the way you question yourself along the path to a solution. I dunno if this make any sense, but what I want to know, is how do you find these solutions? So, as you talk your way through a puzzle, that is what I like the most - this glimpse into how your mind works and how it allows you to eventually conquer these puzzles. Thanks a lot for all of your content so far!

When you opened the door to the scorpion it looked like the claws could hold the coin. I wonder if you placed the coin there then closed the door would it do something else or open another door?
Wow, out of 10 on looks it is easily 200. That is an awesome puzzle. So loved watching you solve this on. It has to be in the top 5 puzzles you've solved.

[pinkCEO]

Really loved this one, it's pretty simple, kind of easier, but a great adventure, loved the clues and the part popping/shifting around. The best part is the art definitely, tons of tiny little details.

So there was a coin with a square hole in the center (14:51)...and a scorpion with a square peg sticking out of it (23:28)...yet these two features never came together. I wouldn't have been able to resist putting the coin on the peg.

[barhydttyler]

What a beautiful piece of art... all the time and the thought that has gone into this puzzle is amazing. Everything from the symbols to the scorpion that is carved and the super dope metal coin, its just pure awesomeness. Puzzles with tools like the spear are always soo fun and awesome too.. super cool. Amazing craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing man!

[PDeRop]

On many of these boxes, I really wished, the maker would explain, what they had in mind. What part of the box was a hint... and what part of the box was just decoration.

[siamapalkki]

What an absolute stunning puzzle! The attention to detail literally blows my mind!!!!

[zyishai]
