    Literally everyone who gets a world record: *Sounds of wailing, crying, orgasming, Latest world record-holder, Slipperynip: * "wow. alright, cool. sweet."
  • “And his name was Matt Turk” had me believing in a speedrunning cinematic universe
  • @Sam_596
    It's interesting how SM64 is both carefully, thoughtfully designed and also held together with string and prayer
  • @LucasIsHereYT
    Rules of Japanese speedrunning: 1. Scream like you're being brutally murdered if you get a record 2. Be uncannily fast
  • @ChryI
    "It was Matt Turk." I literally went "No fucking way." out loud. You got me good!
  • @onlysmiles4949
    "There was just one problem: It had been years since someone with a funny username had set a record" Truly the highest priority
  • @wesker919
    His reaction at the very end was perfect. "Wow. Alright. Cool. Sweet."
  • @swfcocs1
    It's a clear sign of a skilled storyteller when salt can make these documentaries so fascinating to viewers like myself who haven't played videogames since they were kids and in my case have never speed run games . It's one thing to appeal to a core audience but very much another to appeal to such a wide viewership, kudos to salt...
  • @TheFoxClaws
    Summoning salt has built such an speedrunner’s video doc universe that Matt Turk appearing at anytime is believable even if it doesn’t make sense
  • @atlasl0
    Man Matt Turk was so wild, I actually believe you when you said he just randomly showed up and snatched sub 16
  • @vispian7688
    So that maybe some people see it. It has been found out that Tsukashima has been splicing his runs through cstching blinking cycles. His world records were spliced and has since been removed from the leaderboaed
  • @Thug_Nose
    48:27 I know it’s heartbreaking to lose a world record like that, but I couldn’t help but laugh uncontrollably when salt cut the music when Weegee jumped the wrong way lmao
  • @Vixeneye1
    I lost my fucking mind when Summoning Salt said "Matt Turk" That was such a good prank lmao
  • @Aelfraed26
    "Just kidding. It obviously wasn't Matt Turk." "It was AndrewG"
  • @leynin9286
    For anyone curious, current WR is 14:35:500 by Suigi which is a staggering 15 seconds faster than 2nd place (Slipperynip)
  • @Allenryan819
    for alll those that are curious the as of 12/20/22 the all time 16 star record is held by suigi with 14m/41s/380ms
  • @DrPotatoSkins
    I love the personality contrast between Kanno getting his world record and nearly/actually crying in happiness and Slipperynip beating his record and just going "alright"
  • @MYG
    A closely kept secret in speedrunning is that every top runner is just Matt Turk in disguise
  • @gulermo
    - is named SlipperyNip - gets back to speedrunning the game and gets the new world record - only reaction is "wow....alright, cool :)" massive chad
