personal best 3/6/2013 this game is insanely hard but I'm having fun getting better. will probably improve this sometime. / cosmowright speedrunslive.com
John Numbers and Jodenstone sent Cosmo spiraling into depression to the extend that he now thinks he's a girl. Ever since then Cosmo stopped speedrunning and slowly lost his grip on his sanity.
ᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚᅚ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Those fucking jumps triggered me. How much do you have to practice to become that good.
anyone else notice how the only comments about his nails are people complaining about invisible complaints about cosmo's nails? That isn't progress either.
this is probably the biggest slap to the face of my childhood because i couldnt even get passed stage 10 and this dude just nonchalantly kicks ass, also i dont think a game has caused me so much butthurt than this one
I love how a simple thing like painted nails causes chaos in the comments. >:D For anyone wondering why he does it, he specified in the description of another video that he thinks it looks nice.
we're getting to that meta place, folks. it started with comments complaining about nail polish then comments complaining about comments complaining about nail polish then comments complaining about comments complaining about comments complaining about nail polish now i'm making a comment complaining about comments complaining about comments complaining about comments complaining about nail polish
I don't mind the nail polish. I mind the fact that some people are blowing things out of proportion and making transphobic comments and, as someone who came purely for the video content, I'm quite disgusted people are hitting this low.
Dude ur videos are friggin awesome, the run is impressive but the commentary is why I watch the full video! Keep up the good work you're doing excellent!
damn. i think i need to go hibernate for idk....a few hundred years as my brain processes all of the shit in this video. dude. ive never even SEEN the master levels.
I can't believe anybody can actually play Super Monkey Ball this well. We can barely get through one party game, let alone every level on expert. As for the nails, a little odd at first when hearing the masculine voice in the background, but hey! Who cares about his nails. They're his nails and the highlight of the video is clearly the gameplay, not his hand. Anyway, awesome video! If ever anybody wants to see how not to play Super Monkey Ball, our channel is a great example.
Awesome run, Cosmo. Insanely impressive. I can't even finish Expert :( Sorry, what I meant to say was "AAAHHH WTF YO' NAILS BRAH! WHACHU THINKIN' FGT?!"
People donate money to request certain games and thousands of people donate for their favorites. The more money a certain game gets the more likely someone will do a speed run so its pretty effective
i dont think he 'quit' so much as just kinda...fell out of doing it. im sad bc it was rly cool but everyone harasses him abt it so it's understandable.
I'm guessing that since the camera is focused on his hands the whole time it's just a quirky thing he does to make it a bit more interesting. Nails can get dirty looking with sweat build up and dead skin after playing with a controller for a long time so it probably helps keep them looking nice as well.
ive heard several speedrunners paint their nails because it helps them see their finger placement without taking their eyes off the tv i dont know if cosmo is the same
Literally at the same moment I was thinking "Wow, a TAS would be really fun to see", he said "There's no full TAS yet, it's being worked on." Cosmo, can you read my mind?
How come on the bonus levels you don't just immediately lean off the edge instead of going through and getting some bananas, if they don't require finishing properly?

18:10...that's a good number, cosmo.
Right? :D hahaha

Dean Rodman well its still his OoT Speedrun time xD even tho its not the WR

Augustus Julias The only advice i can give you is GIT GUD
Why does he paint his nails? Is it to add flair to the contror cam, or is it just for fun?
+flutterpaws to make all the charities go ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
18:10
A once glorious time. Now it's a reminder of a better time.

Adam Thomas you forgot the 1% which is complaining about the comments

the music for those master levels is so awesome
I was humming to the music in my head.
comments on this video
99%: LMAO NAEL PULOSH ON GUI?
1%: cool speedrun
That Dole product placement.
"bananas are lame" Cosmo has apparently never had the pleasure of being with a banana.
i miss old cosmo
Super Monkey Ball is really relaxing to watch for me
"I played it safe there..." These words tells you that Cosmos safe way is one of the most hardcore ones xD
anyone else notice how the only comments about his nails are people complaining about invisible complaints about cosmo's nails?
That isn't progress either.
and then i said they're not invisible
this is probably the biggest slap to the face of my childhood because i couldnt even get passed stage 10 and this dude just nonchalantly kicks ass, also i dont think a game has caused me so much butthurt than this one
i’ve rewatched this so many times, thank you for helping me sleep with this commentary and game music
here i am again
The saves in this run are ridiculous! And by the way...
FUCK GENDER CONFORMITY! FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION ALL THE WAY!!! =D
I love how a simple thing like painted nails causes chaos in the comments. >:D
For anyone wondering why he does it, he specified in the description of another video that he thinks it looks nice.
***** I thought it started out as a donation idea, he would paint a fingernail for every 100$ donated on his stream.
Wow, good job on the speedrun!
My brain stopped when I watched this video. I don't even know how he does it.
Your telling me! I don't know HOW he did floor 7! Craziness engaged!
He has enough practice with the game that playing like this almost(if not completely) second-nature to him.
we're getting to that meta place, folks.
it started with comments complaining about nail polish
then comments complaining about comments complaining about nail polish
then comments complaining about comments complaining about comments complaining about nail polish

[Insert comment here about painted nails because I'm somehow totally incapable of looking at the chat or just stupid]
Omg he has painted nails! Have you ever noticed that?!
***** first time i have ever seen it.
3:52 jerma could never
Its been 10 years and jerma is still stuck on this stage

- Cosmo 2013
I remember playing this a long time ago. It was insanely hard! Seeing you breeze through this, I am speechless!
Yeah his reaction is like "Okay it's a good score but i can do better" And we all know that our Cosmo can do! :D
This was beyond impressive, some of the goals that you sank the ball through mid-air were ridiculous.
damn. i think i need to go hibernate for idk....a few hundred years as my brain processes all of the shit in this video. dude. ive never even SEEN the master levels.
Cosmo, Putting my childhood to shame one game at a time.
Nice vid. I grew up with MB2. Didn't get very far in the original. Expert MonkeyBallers are unbelievable.
Deluxe was my childhood. I have 1 2 and deluxe but I have no way of playing ps2 games. I have beat them all due to that.

Those desert levels... Purest form of nostalgia
"I like that stage a lot, it's very skillful" - Cosmo, 2013
I miss this game so much.
Has so much fun with it back in the day ^^
Yup. It looks so fabulous, I don't know how anyone could question it!
"Alright, here we go... got it."
You took the hardest game of my childhood and made it look like child's play... wait, that makes sense.
I quite literally picked this game up about three hours ago because of these runs. They look super fun! ...and I can confirm, I am having a blast!
Your fingers are purttey :3
Having finally played this game (and tried to play through Expert stages), this is jaw-dropping to see. Back to training!
His OoT record is also 18:10. This must be his magic number.
"The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie Game" and "SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom" both had "Spongeball" which are spinoffs of SMB.
Ready.... Go.... Goal.... These words will haunt my nightmares from now on!
He once said in his stream
"because they look nice"
I thought I was good on games until I saw this guy, hats off to you
You're absolutely amazing.
The "fffffoh my god" at the end was hilarious!
It's really awesome that people are still playing this obscure little game in 2013. I applaud you, Cosmo.
18:10 on this and OoT? i l l u m i n a t i
18:10 is the same time when Cosmo finished his latest Ocarina of Time speedrun!
I love this game so much but you are a madman at this game cosmo. I have to go back and play this now knowing full well how low my skills are.
you got the same time on ur OOT any%
wow, the strat on the last expert level is AWESOME
This is incredible to watch, I didn't know most of these levels existed because I wasn't good enough to get to them :D
Watched you attempt this for a good part of today. Unfortunately I stopped before you actually got it. Glad to see you did eventually finish.
I guess you like the time 18:10?
I was just thinking that!
Why the fuck does everyone care if a guy wants to paint his nails?
DidIMentionItAlsoTravelsInTime? IKR
+DidIMentionItAlsoTravelsInTime? because its really gay
Chairman Meow So taking paint and putting it on your finger nails makes you get boners for other men?
Going over the edge on the bonus levels consistently requires getting some speed first. The bananas just happen to be there.
You run so many different types of games, it's incredible.
around 3am GMT or around 10am GMT which is evening and real early in the morning in america. those times are when Ive had the best luck
I am in awe at the amount of pure skill on display here!
Awesome run, Cosmo. Insanely impressive. I can't even finish Expert :(
Sorry, what I meant to say was "AAAHHH WTF YO' NAILS BRAH! WHACHU THINKIN' FGT?!"
This is blowing my mind.
I have seen a lot of crazy stuff on CZcams. But this...
You are a God!
Who would have thought that his Monkeyball time equals his OoT any% WR
READY, GO.....GOAL! It is going to be stuck in my head for a while now! -.-
you just played my childhood game, love you!
People donate money to request certain games and thousands of people donate for their favorites. The more money a certain game gets the more likely someone will do a speed run so its pretty effective
i miss when cosmo painted his nails :(
i dont think he 'quit' so much as just kinda...fell out of doing it. im sad bc it was rly cool but everyone harasses him abt it so it's understandable.
I saw him on twitch a week ago and he said they were painted lavender, I think cosmos nails look nice
oh, really????? i really really hope he still paints them. i think theyre awesome and i hate that ppl are so mean abt them >:(
4 words to describe this run? "Alright, here we go"
you would have to have been playing this for years to be this good
Just started watching your vids! I love them. Such great commentary, skill, and variety!
Played this at a friend's house at a sleepover years ago. Still can't make it past the earlier levels....
18:10 in this run, 18:10 in OOT any%.
The nails must be good luck!
...Time to start painting my nails when I speedrun. Kappa
He just paints his nails because he likes it.
Because Cosmo is fabulous.
I'm guessing that since the camera is focused on his hands the whole time it's just a quirky thing he does to make it a bit more interesting. Nails can get dirty looking with sweat build up and dead skin after playing with a controller for a long time so it probably helps keep them looking nice as well.
You're right. Let me try that again. It will be MORE amazing.
Who's the girl with the controller?
ive heard several speedrunners paint their nails because it helps them see their finger placement without taking their eyes off the tv i dont know if cosmo is the same
you make me feel like i'm really bad at this game because I can't even get to the desert world.
14:17 I swear it looked like that shit was never gonna end
The precision, it burns!
The painted nails are awesome. The color they're painted, not so much.
I personally would love to attempt my own speed run of this game, maybe the 2nd one too.
Wow I can't believe I forgot about this game.
Cosmo, your speed runs are epic, keep up the good work!
16:02 lol i cant stop laughing, expecially when u know u have to run away and die anyway xD
watching this make me feel like a noob, but make those are some awesome plays
Awesome job there, love your videos man. Also, your nails are freaking fabulous.
Hey Cosmo, what capture card do you use?
Sick gameplay, as always!
Literally at the same moment I was thinking "Wow, a TAS would be really fun to see", he said "There's no full TAS yet, it's being worked on." Cosmo, can you read my mind?
I would love to see a tas of this game (or any in the series), or even better, one where you collect all bananas.
Oh my god, Cosmo. Once you refine your run a bit and practice a bit more, your time will be amazing.
Remember watching this live
Given that the current record is something to the tune of 16:09, yes, definitely possible.
I don't care about the nails I care about the speedrun
Incredible skill. Btw why do u paint your nails? Just curious. Is it a good luck thing?
He has his opinion, you have yours. Even though I agree with you, there's no need to crucify him for it.
How come on the bonus levels you don't just immediately lean off the edge instead of going through and getting some bananas, if they don't require finishing properly?
You take those tiny pillars so easily.
