    This person has found an actual solution:

    https://mlzeng.com/an-interesting-equation.html

    x = 36875131794129999827197811565225474825492979968971970996283137471637224634055579

    y = 154476802108746166441951315019919837485664325669565431700026634898253202035277999

    z = 4373612677928697257861252602371390152816537558161613618621437993378423467772036

    This is apparently the smallest solution.

    The derivation of the solution itself requires an understanding of Diophantine equations and elliptical curves, which I will not pretend to understand well enough to summarize.

        I have to admit, my solution is not correct anyways. I simply found a “solution” for which the margin of error is smaller than the calculator’s level of precision.

        Sorry everyone, I cheated.
