Keeping him unverified because of 30 seconds of missing footage shows far more integrity than twin galaxies
Yeah twin galaxies is a joke
There's no reason, in my opinion, why Billy Mitchell couldn't end up on a Wheaties box someday
Damn, get out of the past... Twin Galaxies now isn't the Billy Mitchell infested shitfest it was, give the new people a chance...
@@thealarm7057 Pretty sure he's taking a dig at Wheaties.
@@thealarm7057 Reputations exist for a reason, and you get no credit while you're building one, nor when you're rebuilding a destroyed one.
Even though he just wanted to fail so he could just sleep throughout the entire run he still somehow managed to get the record.
Absolute Legend
Uh did u not see the thumbnail... jes literally just a legend... he may as well be robin.. hes a loser. If it said absolute legend now that would be different lmao jk
What a run though, geez
This is just how it is. When you don't care to keep going, you end up having a run.
And then having to deal with it of course lol
@@chloewinnaa1515 It's actually a common psychological thing. It's seen in gambling games like poker all the time.
If you care too much about something and are really trying to achieve, often you find that you stress over the superfluous and end up underachieving because you worried about something small and missed something that actually mattered.
If you stop worrying, or stop caring as they put it and just play/relax about what you are doing, it often leads to better results because you aren't worried about what will happen at the end.
Der Typ no. That’s just not true. You perform best when your head is cool, and it just so happens a side effect of not caring is that you never lose your cool. That’s simply all it is.
@@icankickflipok Ah you're an expert on this I see
"Speedrunning needs to be taken out of bedrooms."
My GF tells me this all the time....
Wait a minute...
You guys have gfs?
He's the Alpha speedrunner.
Oof r/suicidebywords
Wait a frame... You're not talking bout games *clearly confused*
9:30 LOL i love that Cheese seems to react to the news that he's 47 secs ahead
tru
i am a sadist so i will change ur 69 likes
And I changed it to 70, I feel evil today.
thank you another fantastic video
Woah look who it is. Just gonna ride this comment to the top...
he's the fast guy
....huh.
mr everman
bruh
Even events with no need for a world record to be broken would be fun. Like 5k for the winner of the best time from the whole weekend. Maybe a bonus if the world record is broken
Exactly what I was thinking, it would be in scenarios like: First runner set a good time and second runner is behind so he has to pull of riskier strats to win. Only issue would be for super long games it would be hard to watch live
Yes this
5k for the winner would only go to the same 3 people every event..
EPIC GAMING MOMENT HAHAAHAHAAHHAAHAGAHWEKF
@@LandoMercy that's exactly what this event was except with the added WR bonus
"We are probably going to see a lot more events like this crop up in the future, or at least, I hope we do."
In reference to live in-person events. Uploaded on the 3rd of March, 2020.
Darn
Damn
Timing
Commentary: "You are a legend, cheese."
Karl Jobst: "Commentary was on point."
This was like a 1/10 of a second from being a massive heartbreak.
Watching this live, I was so scared he'd miss the Bowser toss
Same bro I was shitting my self can't believe I watched it live!!!!!!
I just love when they miss
Alan Brito you monster.
Alan Brito that's the best part.
@@alanbrito141 Some men just want to watch the world burn.
I think these events are important because once they become more common, we can use them to weed out cheaters. You can't cheat in a live setting.
Yep. Live speedrun events should be held much often
Todd Rogers:Is that a challenge?
is cheating really that common in modern speedrunning though? legit question
Agreed, but you seem to forget about Billy Mitchell who literally cheated in front of thousands of people xD and got away with it for years, decades even
@@Joiner113 Yes, sadly it is. Some runners splice their runs, taking individual clips and splicing them together into one. That way, they can just repeat sections over and over until they feel like they did well enough.
Another somewhat common way to cheat is to create a TAS that seems human-like. So you play, rewind, play, rewind, etc. until you did everything without mistakes, or until you get perfect RNG. This becomes very difficult to prove, especially if you modify your controller to replay it on a live console, then record that.
Yet another method is to change the game itself, for example, modifying cars to accelerate faster, enemies to hit you more or less often, etc. These things would be incredibly difficult to notice if you don't suspect anything.
The big problem is that you can't really prove that someone did not cheat. You need to trust runners to a certain degree. I doubt that anyone would want to attach a debugger to a console and then verify 90 minutes of program code to verify that nothing was modified in any way. And even then you could not be sure 100%.
I keep thinking how clutch it was that this event happened right before the pandemic broke out. If it had been scheduled just a few weeks into the future, we might have missed out on one of the best moments in competitive gaming.
12:43 omg his reaction :')
Hi nick
Simplys>
@@toilet64_ yeah definitely
jygkuhij]
He's such a sweetie
I think with how far behind he was at the beginning, then how ahead he was in the middle, then how he clutched out the rest of the run, shows that the record can be brought down by maybe another whole minute, which is exciting.
Being there and witnessing this run happening first hand was absolutely insane, this is for sure one of the biggest moments in speedrunning history.
Mustve been a dense atmosphere of pressure
“Commentary was on point.”
90% of Commentary: ”Nice...”
to be fair, whatever needs explaining were probably all done on the first day
They don't need to talk all the way through, only when somethings need to be explained or highlighted
Towards the end they were silent as to not spook cheese. Professional curtsey
they repeated the same word a few times. Big deal
90% of commentary... On the final 0.5% of the run
Fixed it for you.
In addition to the events being a lot of fun to watch, in cheese's analysis video of his run, he talks about how great the setup for the event was, and how much he enjoyed being able to play in proximity to his friends, and watch them make runs as well.
It adds even more credibility to the idea when a top speedrunner says the change of location was actually nice and well done.
This might go down as being "The Flu Game" of speedrunning and also get a near mythical feeling about it. Cheese dealing with illness and exhaustion just clutches out a run like this.
Why stop at flu game? There's a flu every year. Make it the Corona Virus Game.
In case people don't know, there was a very famous Michael Jordan NBA finals game where he scored 38 points while suffering from a severe flu. So perhaps this is the speedrunning version of that.
@@paperandpavement right? Cheese is well loved and Jordan is notoriously big headed and a dick to his fans.
@@paperandpavement *your
Ned Vega cheese is probably going to be the MJ of this game currently. Idk what your problem with gaming is but speedrunning literally requires you to be perfect otherwise you simply won't be the best
Sorry but the title of most clutch was already taken.
I agree
The man the myth has arrived
2D vs 3D
What a rush.
The most clutch gamer alive is here
Dominating while dealing with a stomach flu? This is a straight up Michael Jordan story.
sad dat this didnt get a lot of likes, fuckin nerds don’t understand sport references lol
@Van Damage why u gotta downplay King Lebron? Can you move to a new franchise and win championships and then come back to your home team to win another championship to prove everyone wrong? plus with trash ass teammates when he back to cavs
@@TuveanYGloir If I had Lebrons skills, I could definitely move onto another team full of stars LMFAO. That goes against your argument. Lebron has to stack his team cuz he's not good enough. Kobe and MJ stayed with their team, win or loss, like true warriors.
Regardless, i'm sure Lebron could play through sickness if he hasn't already.
He came back tho and won :/
@@TuveanYGloir Nobody thinks those silly American passtimes are real sport though.
Isn't Michael Jordon one of the American netball players where they pick up the ball like a girl?
Utterly insane for that to happen at a live event like that. The additional pressure it puts on the runners can't be said enough. So awesome to see the SM64 community band together like that to reinstate the bounty, build upon it, and do a live event.
I used to always think of speedrunning as just... ridiculous. This channel in particular has really made me reevaluate it these past 2 years, which is not something I ever expected. 18 year old me couldn't think of anything more boring than watching someone else breeze through a game, but I get it now.
I came for some Goldeneye nostalgia, and left with new appreciation for something I used to always make fun of.
but its borinh
@@ewan1118 It's all about finding a game you enjoy watching, and a person who is great at playing it.
Wise Man go fuck yourself, I’m sick of seeing this shit
planescaped as impressive as a “world record” is, I find the entire genre convoluted
Wise Man imagine replying 3 weeks later, God damn what a pussy
I love how Cheese gets so emotional about his clutch runs. You can tell he has hella passion for what he does :D
Me: =(
Karl Jobst: "Hello you *absolute* legends."
Me: =)
ahaha reddit ahaha shut up
Karl Jobst:( T_T)＼(^-^ )
@@leons.kennedy2747 you just posted cringe
Me: No u
@@islandboy9381 ahahaha no one cares ahahahaha shut up
That last bowser level was something of beauty.. the unmatched confidence in the platform inspires me way outside of this game. Feel like I just went through an anime arc
Break the record was amazing! I'm happy it was so well recieved, it was such a pleasure to participate!
I think events like this capture the essense of speedrunning in a way that marathon style events can't quite do and I really hope to see more in a similar style.
I have something to admit. I started the video and realised my volume was on mute. I then rewound the video to the start just so I could hear Karl utter those immortal words, 'hello you absolute legends.'
This literally happened to me just now.
Heloor yoo absolurte LEGENDS
There's a lot of channels that cover content like this, but you and summoning salt are my favorites simply because your choices in music and your voices alone.
Extremely relaxing and engaging without trying to be flashy, and come off as really coherent and smooth in presentation.
I totally related with the commentator Noizeeh towards the end there, the way he kept drying his sweaty hands on his pants and he wasn't even the one playing. I'm sure so many of the thousands of spectators were hyped, and then Cheese actually pulls it off which immediately leads to a very emotional reaction. I felt that and I'm almost a year late to the party!
Seeing Chesse cry when he achieves something big, makes him even more legend in my eyes.
Shows he's humble and even surprised when he archives something big
I would also cry if I made that much money
Just picture, hundreds of hours of dedication on achieving a lower time, and the day the world was against you, feeling ill due sleep deprivation and sickness, you turn the tides and beat it against all odds, that's true commitment, who would not cry to see that just happened? He is an amazing runner
Watching cheese throw his hands in his face in pure overwhelming relief is such a heartwarming moment, I wanna give this man a hug so bad. Congratulations Cheese you’re a true legend!
He looks like the kinda guy who would be good at this
So do u lol

Cheese you are unbelievable :D damn bro, that level of consistency in speed is amazing. You truly earned it! The emotions you had when the last bowser throw worked :) So happy for you
"but alot can happen over the course of 9 months" you'd sure know about that 😏🤣
"HAH" - Dad
@@thealarm7057 nice

@@thealarm7057 "9 months ago"
Pregnancy.
Definitely one of my favorite stories in Speedruning. From Cheese persevering to get the first verified run after the technical error before. To various community members pitching in the rewards money. All around a great story.
The fact that he achieved this goal during this small little competition means that more sponsored support for this kind of stuff will happen more often and in larger size going forward. This is a great thing for the community in general, plus it's neat that Cheese broke the record live like this!
This is amazing!
Pog
The fact that this run is so good, but when commentating it Cheese is pointing out mistakes and (albeit kind of jokingly) saying it's bad, makes me even more impressed. Man's a clutch legend, and he has a great fashion sense (shirt company).
have to agree with the fashion here, he's always crisp af
to be real, the run WAS bad in the first part, but, as cheese himself said, his tippi was absolutely insane, he lost a insane amount of time in ground floor and basement, but really picked it back up later
@@emberleblanc8708 so if so much of the time lost, maybe cheese can get an 1:37?
@@clairelili873 1:37 is possible, but requires a near perfect run :) But maybe one day :o
@@emberleblanc8708 not really possible. you would need perfect rng and like almost no misstakes. but if they find new consistent routes and tricks to shave of more time then yeah maybe it's doable with an almost perfect run.
There he is! Karl giving Cheese a shoutout for his phenomenal 120 star WR at BTR Live!!
Watching this in December and having him talk about how more "events need to get out of the bedroom" not more than a week before the pandemic began during down most of the world.
Hard to say what will be left of the economy in 6 months, but it would be great to see the irl speed running community pick up where these people left off.
My thoughts as well.
Dude you're a great narrator, great videos. I've never been interested in the world of speed running but your videos got me into it. Keep up the good work!
The fact that he made the record WITH those minor slip-ups and illness is absolutely amazing. I have to wonder if he could keep that minute lead he gained in a future run. The man is a legend, and every time there was a cutscene you could just see him taking a breath, getting ready to go.
I'll definitely be checking out his channel. With a name like "Cheese", how could I not?
Hope you did, he just managed another legendary run, which is why I am revisiting some old favorites.
My heart nearly popped out of my chest just watching him silently play. Damn. I dont wanna imagine the stress he needed to endure.
i was more worried about his insides in his tumy turning to outsideds from his tumy from the nauseating camera with that tumy ack
Idk why, but Karl saying "Epic gaming moment" in such a deadpan English accent makes me giggle so much www
He's Australian though
AW YOU BRIIIISSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
@@zackey3876 I'm American; we only know two accents: British and normal.
(This is a joke, if I wasn't clear enough lol)
He's not English
Damn man. I know next to nothing about Mario speed running records, but the look on his face when he hit the 1:38... I felt that. Like when you finally broke the Dam record. The only time I've felt something half as close is when I finally found The Grizzly in Diablo 1 after more than 20 years of playing. Love your content mate. Good to see that just before 2020 you were at 100k subscribers and now you've launched up to 162k. Keep it up :-)
Watching Cheese doing this live was so amazing. I was so happy to see him make that achievement!
Glad to catch this before work. Thanks you absolute legend
What sort of East Coast Aussie uploads at 1am?
One that's an absolute legend
My palms were sweating even though I already knew the outcome. That's some excellent storytelling right there
I spend hours a week just admiring the speedruns all over the CZcams, had to some of the on my channel, just out of pure love, no bounty, no reward....nothing.
Just the sheer happiness of quickly doing something that you really love and cherish, and maybe good at.
Thanks for the amazing video !
It's Monday morning, and I've already been called an absolute legend this morning. Yay!
ok
I would love when events like this will get much more known so there are big events all over the world for a variety of games.
Also this video was great, keep up the great work.
I started getting into speed running again around almost 2 years ago now. The growth skill tech and popularity has been nothing short of amazing to watch. Heavy into the Mario games but the speedrunning community as a whole has some amazing talent and this kind of entertainment is potential waiting to be tapped by the right people. Thanks yo you ezscape and others you all should come together and make a legit tourney for the popular games
Love Cheese. Good stuff. Shout outs to the other attending/competing speedrunners as well. Everyone worked together to make the push & motivation for someone to achieve this.
2020 is quite the year for speedrun achievements so far. runway 21 on goldeneye just happened and now a new Mario 64 record. That's impressive 😄
We're witnessing history in the making!
runway 21? oh my word
I think you missed a few records in 2020.
Doom Hangar 26 by Depr4vity on 24 January 2020
Ocarina of Time in 12:48 by ZFG before 18 January 2020 (to my knowledge the first real speedrun that used the ACE Credits Warp, current world record seems to be 7:48 by Zudu)
Super Mario Bros 4:55.646 by Kosmic before 18 January 2020.
@@Cryptur- indeed we are this is an exciting time for speedrunning. I can't wait to see what record may be broken next
@@Lovuschka those records were recently broken/made? That's pretty awesome. I mostly keep up with Goldeneye and Mario speedrunning but that's pretty impressive that new records keep on getting broken and such
Can we get one of the Break the Record events for Perfect Dark - Attack Ship - Agent? That 2:06 has stood for WAY too long!
Dude I love this content! Its a great summary for people who dont have time to be so deep in these communities. I really enjoyed your Ocarina of time speed run video. Cheers man, what a great channel style. Youre filling a hole with this type of content!!
MAN!!!! My palms and feet were sweating rivers at the end there! Great editing and narration, and of course, epic run!
My man cheese clutched a wr run while suffering from stomach flu and sleep deprivation. Truly an absolute legend
I’ve been hyped to see Karl talk about this new record for a while. Glad it’s finally here
Time to be hyped about the video that is bound to come about Runway 21 or the boring 4 in general? :o
Having done competitions sick/sleep deprived, I can say it is 100% instinct that kicks in.
Cheese spent years cultivating great instincts, so even though he was exhausted, those motor skills took over and he managed to crush it.
Well done!
I love how you play clips in their entirety for important moments, you have an amazing feel for making these videos! Gets me emotional everytime
You’re always so good at bringing the real feeling of suspense in these videos, just like when you are actually watching an actual live attempt.
You made this video so interesting to watch, thank you man.
Very clear, informative and interesting video. Well done, thanks for taking the time to make this.
This channel is legendary. I’m so glad it exists! I can’t believe how far speed running has come. I use to speed run Goldeneye back in the day. Facility 00 Agent was a favourite.
Caught this early, and I'm very glad about that; your content's always top-notch, Karl.
I teared up when he was trying his best. It's something about a human doing their best no matter what it is.... and against all odds. Just wonderful. Inspirational! thank you.
You know, I appreciate a whole lot how the entire video was summarized quickly in the first two minutes, answering the slightly clickbaity title with some instant gratification of what exactly happened and letting me decide if I'm interested to see more.
Dude you've come a long way in doing these videos. I'm so glad you started doing these yourself and really breaking down the appreciation for the pressure and history of the weight

Love speedruns, they are just so awesome to watch and having more speedrun events like GDQ and ESU and just others I may not know would be so frecking cool.
I would be so happy to see more events like this, hopefully next time I’ll be able to tune in.
My favorite part of that event was that Cheese nearly got another 1:38 on the third day, although his run fell apart upstairs.
Cheese talks himself down too when he is just inexplicably good
Speedrunning is so damn hype. Congrats to cheese. +1 sub man, I've seen to many of your vids to not have subbed yet.
Amazing, I’ve been watching his grind. What a legend.
"Speedrunning needs to be taken out of bedrooms"
Coronavirus: *happens*
i get hyped when i clutch an unranked match in valorant, i cant imagine this, he’s a legend
Holy crap this gave me goosebumps. I love videos like this that go over historic events in speed running ^^
Also I'm with you, Karl. I'd love to see more events like this. Like someone said in the comments, it doesn't even have to be to break a record, it could just be a fun competition between some of the best of the best and if you break the record you get a bonus.
Great video! So cool how this all went down.
Not really into speed running, but that was awesome. Good job Cheese!
This video made me want to watch more speedruns.
@noo dles Thanks for taking the time to reply. I will check the channel out too.
Thank you for this video. I missed all the action while it was happening, but now I feel as though I was there for the whole thing.
Amazing video, great commentary, and ecstatic ending!!
but i thought I was an absolute legend :(
Hey. Hey. You're still an absolute legend in your own way.

It's okay to be a relative legend too!

so many good feels in this video. thanks for the great content, karl.
I can't stop wanting to know more about speedrunning, since I started to follow Summoning Salt this world has been more and more interesting. Thank you for bringing us these fantastic videos about this incredible world!

This amazing moment just happened!
Me 9 months later: 😐
Same lmao
Cheese probably remembered that one quote a homeless man told him.
That look on his face when he saw that the last throw was good.
Dude my heart was beating out of my just chest watching it, already knowing the outcome. Can’t imagine the pressure.
Thanks for persistently bringing tales of legendary achievements to us, Karl. You act as an interface between those who dedicated their time to this very niche and intense interest and the newcomers who get to benefit from the context you can provide to us
Midnight in Brisbane Karl. Time for an upload. Cheers!
Heart rate monitors would be a nice addition to the event.
I don't need to see that, my anxiety is high enough with these runs as is x)
Why? I've seen them in other runs but is it really necessary? Who cares about their heart rate? Is it a requirement for a legitimate run?
@@MezzoForte4 Maybe they could break the record for fastest heart beat.
