Even him could...

Hi
What is wrong with this sentence? Especially with the phrase "even him could not"
"It was too complicated even him could not figure out what it was."
Thank You!

It's two sentences incorrectly joined into one. This error is commonly called 'a run-on sentence'. Say eg It was too complicated .
