Forest64 is a badass - discovers new gamebreaking shortcut - sends to abney even tho he never participated in his streams - leaves without elaborating further
-
A shortcut being discovered in the 90s and not being globally known until 2020 is insane
-
Abney did a sub 23 yesterday: 22:58.68 in a magnificent run The goat, simply
-
Salts you got me so stressed and sympathetic for Abney. I didn't even know he existed till 35 minutes ago
-
I love how Garret was sitting on that Rainbow Road skip for decades because he thought the community knew already.
-
Getting namedropped in a Summoning Salt video title is an honour only previously given to Matt Turk. Congratulations, abney317!
-
It’s incredible how quickly this record is changing, just a month after this video releases, Abney gets a 22:58!
-
I swear, this guy could talk about the history of Post-It notes and find a way to make it dramatic & interesting
-
I've never been so excited to watch a blue dot compete against a red dot in a game I barely play.
-
that beginning with abney's sarcasm about the guys discovery due so seeing so many beforehand slowly changing into absolute shock is absolutely priceless
-
Imagine how alive it must make you feel to have someone take your record after 7 years, knowing that you can take it back if you work hard enough. To get to be the hunter instead of the hunted. It must feel like getting to discover speed-running all over again.
-
Update: abney317 took the WR back a week ago with a time of 22:58. Yes, the first sub-23 minutes. What a legend.
-
The fact that the Rainbow Road shortcut went undiscovered for over 2 decades because the guy who found it just assumed it was already known is nothing short of incredible Makes me wonder just how many other speedrunning discoveries are hidden in the same way
-
You could tell it was Kazuya because he does the Royal Raceway trick like an absolute maniac lol
-
Abney just took back the record with a 22:58!!!
-
The indomitable human spirit at it again. These guys are seriously nuts for this continuous grind. Mad respect.
-
Abney is probably the most patient speedrunner out there. Always takes disappointment extremely well. That's why he's my favorite.
-
The opening sequence showing Abney's reaction to the new shortcut really set the tone for what was to come. Great video as always.
-
Kazuya has just hit a world record of 23:13.35 since this video released. Legend
