- The World Record History of how Super Mario Odyssey was beaten in under one hour. The road to sub-hour was hard fought but some dedicated speedrunners made it happen with incredible dedication and determination. Here's their story.

I love how a large group of speed runners didn’t even notice that you could R U N
Yeah, how did that happen? Holding the button to run is in literally every 2-D Mario game.
@@JonSmith-hk1bq prob since super mario odyssey doesn't have a run mechanic in the rest of the game so people just never bothered trying and the few that did figure it out prob thought everyone knew considering how fast people were beating that part compared to them and the speedrunners focus on optimizing as much as they can which causes them to overlook obvious things since testing something that might not work would be a waste of time
@@k1llsh0t_87 I mean, sure, but I immediately switched to 2D running control. Didn't even think about it.
Reminds me of how a Rainbow Coin in Donkey Kong 64 was discovered 17 years after release. Some claim that they found it as kids or that they checked their old save file and noticed that they already collected it, yet it wasn't public knowledge until 2 years ago because hey... *surely* everybody already knows about it so there's no need to document it on the internet, right?
Really makes me curious about some of my own interesting observations I've made in games where I thought "This must be something that every expert player of this game already knows about". For all I know someone's "common knowledge" about a game might lead to insane new speedrunning records.
@@Azumongo It wouldn't have occured to me that people wouldn't know this, honestly...
"This skip had nothing to do with [Dram], people just kept naming stuff after him as a joke." I find that far more amusing than I probably should.
dude, there are like 50 trickjumps named after dram
Luigi's Hat Omg, gimme some examples!
I also found this highly amusing.
It is hilarious tho
Same here lol.
Goryuya was my favorite in this video because he didn’t even know how to submit his runs at first 😂
A legend in his own class
Yeah, it’s not even like he just didn’t want to, he just didn’t know how.
professionals have STANDARDS.
Same lol
Poor dude
I love how calm shaden was every time he got a world record
He was just like
a l r i g h t . . . g o t i t . . .
“Woo i got a pb”
alright, i got my pb, i’m done for the night
i love how uncalm chaospringle was every time he got a pb LOL
"Alright, I got the 1:05 I wanted, I'm gonna go to bed"
When you break the wr 3 times in one day:
That run sucked. Im gonna eat something and go to bed.
Nice
Break it again the next day:
okay i gotta peepee
Weird flex but ok
@@chekinemi951 indeed!
@Jude Lee 🧙🏾♂️👍🏾
It’s crazy how refined these runs are. We’re judging 2 second mistakes on an HOUR long run. These runners are insane.
Go watch a gta 5 speedrun
Tbh, this is pretty exaggerated. If you watch the full runs, there are plenty of bigger mistakes that are more apparent then the 2 to 3 seconds lost in the clips that were shown.
You should see GoldenEye or Doom where they are wrestling for a single decimal
Yeah, it was a little overexaggerated. Especially if you noticed Nicros sum of best segments was a 59:12 when he set the sub-hour. That means he made at least 47 seconds of mistakes.
@@magnusm4 Along with super mario bros
23:44 ah man, don’t you just hate it when you do like 7 inputs in .12 seconds by accident
It’s hard to avoid sometimes
@@ruben_smo yeah it's like everyday that I accidentally gain 3 years of experience *sigh
muscle memory
Happens
those 7 inputs are easy for these runners so it's easy for them to make a mistake
I find it quite funny how Nicro confidently proclaimed that sub hour was impossible, then becomes the first person to get sub hour, and then just peaces out, having secured his spot in speed running history
True Canadian right there
Speedrunners are literally spending all of their time in games, trying not to spend much time in games...
Best comment.
That’s deep af.

(I scoured for this quote! Well, someone else did and I read their database. Worth it.)
I'm loving this trend of timeline documentaries of speedrun histories. I don't know if Summoning Salt was the first, but I'm glad his work has helped push this genre.
I like the trend of Speedrunners that have a youtube following covering the game that they have a reputation for.
honestly, little salty bout him ripping the idea, but I'm about to watch it so I might not care by the end lol
Good fucking video, i dont care anymore lmao
Summoning Salt was the first I think
@@smiling5310 I was about to be salty at you but I appreciate that you came back to tell us you changed your mind haha
One thing I love about the speedrunning community is how advances are a true group effort. No single person can independently find all the glitches and strats. Tricks are shared and everyone is psyched to see someone discovering and using a new one. Really shows how vital community and shared information is to progress.
Ya. I agree.
Iknow. Every time I hear about a barrier getting broken, its always applauded by every runner. They all love the game more than they want the glory. They still want that glory too, but they'd rather it get broken by someone than no one.
@@MercuryA2000 love the way u put it!
@@Burst644 Thank you!
The 2 people above me are proving how much a complement and working together as a community is an amazing gift that the Speed-running mario community has.
The record just kept getting crazier and crazier, huge props to the speedrunners that kept pushing the envelope

@@yakyibia1758 u stole this comment word for word shut up
Lol I knew that when the game came out I thought that was common knowalge.
@@magster3997 same. Well I didn't know it when the game came out because I never played until a month or 2 ago, but I knew it soon as I played it.
True
As someone who has never played this game and doesn’t care about speed running at all, this video is absolutely fascinating
very amazing but after you beat the game like a million times it gets boring and you should try to speedrun, even though you cant do the best strats you can still do. my record was 7hours, and that was the most fun ive ever had.
@@Dumbsourplum if I had a switch or the money to buy one I’d play it
@@Dumbsourplum oh it’s fine haha. It’s just that shelling out 300+ bucks for only one game isn’t too ideal to me.
Same but my bday is on March 23 so yeah that sparked instrest
play it... whatever it takes.
Nicro's friends coming to congratulate him was pretty awesome. It's like they know how hard hed been working for that.
You gotta love how when shaeden gets a WORLD RECORD at 10:36, he’s just all like, “okay, I got a pb”
Ant: *discovers a clip that saves a minute*
Speedrunning community: that’s the dram clip
Hahahahah
Das Da *DRAM STRAT*
I just learned that the person who discovered the “meme tree” skip was actually Dram55, yet it’s pretty much the only skip that _isn’t_ named after him. That is definitely intentional, and it’s hilarious how far the community went to keep the joke going.
Rename it Dram tree
Joshua Wittenberg Nah, that’d ruin the gag if you ask me.
fuck it. tree dram
Joseph Stoolings NO! IT CAN’T BE CALLED DRAM IF DRAM WAS ACTUALLY INVOLVED! ARE YOU _NUTS?!_
We should name skips in other games "dram skip"

@@plantinapot9169 Not even the fact that it's a world record progression, just... well scripted SmallAnt is a good we didn't know
I legit got emotional at Nicro's first sub hour run!! This was an amazing documentary, this is fascinating
Routes through games as they evolve are so funny. A few days after the game comes out there’s “do this moderately hard thing and gain 2 minutes, you can fail five times before it would have been faster to go the easy way”. A few years after the game comes out you get “do this ridiculously hard thing to save four seconds, if you fail you lose 20 seconds.”

I've already discovered the Earth to Mars slingshot clip skip, it's just relatively unknown. First you must do a precise series of yoga moves to clip through the ground. Second you must use your momentum to get into a nice orbit just under the Earth's crust. Third you wait for a while, gaining tons of speed. Fourth you slightly adjust your movement so that you clip out of the earth's crust on top of Everest. Fifth you kick off of the top of Everest with a charged jump, along with your previous speed, to reach escape velocity (this is the most difficult part and has ended most of my runs). Sixth you use the ISS to bank off of, and aim yourself right at mars. It's a difficult skip that not even Elon can pull off consistently, but once people start to master it I think it'll become the new meta.
@@enotsnavdier6867 there is actually an easier way if you get onto a horse and then run into a wall to get into the death world you can actually clip into the wall and tp to mars with a loading glich

Yeah, but that requires proton perfect movement. You need a tool assisted life to get it right even once, let alone consistently. It's just not nearly as practical as my method, not until we get the cybernetic brain enhancement DLC.

I know about a skip in luncheon where you triple jump from the town all the way up to the cheese rocks. PS you triple jump where you usually capture the lava bubble next to that you can find a little studs and if you triple jump off of them then campgrounds in dive you can just barely make it to the cheese rocks saving around 30 to 40 seconds I hope this helps someone
i’m sorry I accidentally wrote campgrounds instead of cap bounce do you have to triple jump off the stud next to the shop
The start of the video: they managed to shave 12 minutes of their run
Later in the video: they managed to save 2 seconds, an amazing achievement
Smallant1 in scripted video: "Let me regale you with the timeless tale of how Super Mario Odyssey was completed in under one hour, and the tremendous communal undertaking that made such a legendary feat possible."

If SummoningSalt has taught me anything, it's that this is probably the truth.
@Caleb Varcoe that's true, but in games big time saves are always discovered. Eventually there will be massive skips found in Odyssey and the record will progress. Maybe not 10 minutes, but a lot faster than it is now.
Paze Gonya we still haven’t even found a way to skip any kingdoms. I feel a glitch like that is inevitable
@Caleb Varcoe Why do you write a capital letter at every start of a word? No offense, but how do you even type like that? Its so hard for me tbh.
