"What's a framerule?" Do not recite the ancient texts to me, witch. I was there when they were written.
Someone in Japan in 1984, probably: "coding in these fireworks to occur was a bit of work, but this small touch is certain to brighten someone's day"
Went from learning about speedrunning from Salt's first SMB1 video in 2017 to helping with a WR history video that I'm a part of. We have truly come full circle.
25:28 “xx_420_blazit_xx” really is the generic “John Smith” of gamertags
I love how xx_420_blazit_xx was just the scientist researcher for the entire video while the speedrunners put his discoveries to the test
I love the running joke in the Mario Bros community for frame rules “IMAGINE A BUS…”
"I can beat this guy by one frame" might be the most speedrunner thing I've heard
27:36 wow bro that was pretty embarrassing
6:58 For April Fools one year you need to do a video on a speed run that actually does only have one major World Record in its history and just cut to black right there.
"It...was...over." *Sees 20 minutes left in the video* Wow, the credits must go crazy in this one
Mario speedrunning be like "He was miles ahead with an insurmountable 0.0002 second lead, no mere mortal could comprehend how he could beat the World Record by that degree".
"A player named Niftzki" When You hear that you know there is no player coming next
Can we acknowledge how funny the start of world -1 is, from, like, a story perspective? - finds princess - sprints toward her - jumps over her head - swims away in the air - refuses to elaborate - leaves
The rivalry between Salt and Bismuth is always funny to see in their vids. The fact that Bismuth had a joke about 'Bus Skip' is also hilarious.
Love it when the record starts becoming an absurd trade of frame perfect time saves and we're still just halfway through the video. We're either discovering a new massive skip or we're fighting for scraps until we all die and i would have it no other way.
I swear this is the most unhinged Summoning salt video, bismuth being referenced, random zoom in on darbion's face, and the "john smith" among other things is just insane.
Bismuth vs. Sodium Chloride, truly one of the rivalries of all time
Shout out to marikh who kept persevering and attempting runs even though he wasn’t able to do the flag clips. He knew he fundamentally had a half-second disadvantage on one of the tightest speed runs in the game. And he still battled even as the titans of Mario speedrunning were fighting atop the list
it’s a christmas miracle
