Hi everyone. Long time no see.

New video coming this evening.

Also I think Twitch chat on all these highlights will now be gone forever, unless there's somehow a way to archive it? Just a really sad day for speedrunning...

PSA to all speedrunners - PLEASE download and upload all highlights to YouTube. Huge amounts of speedrunning history will be lost if we don't take action.

Even if you're under 100 hours, play it safe and download. It's 100 hours for now, but who knows in the future.

Twitch is implementing a 100-hour storage limit for Highlights and Uploads starting April 19, 2025.

And to top it off, I got the record while streaming live. I was pretty much in shock that it finally happened, so not much of a crazy reaction lol. Check it out here - www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpCX...

This record will be beaten one day, but I have no intentions of lowering it more. The main difference between this and a faster record would be getting luckier at the end of the fight.

I've been trying for this for over 4 and a half years. This fight required 21 frame perfect punches (1/60th of a second), 10 frame perfect dodges, as well as luck that has somewhere around a 1/7,000 - 1/10,000 chance of occurring.

It took me over 75,000 attempts.

I just became the first person ever to beat Mike Tyson in under 2 minutes.

I asked ChatGPT to tell me about the history of the Super Mario Bros any% world record.

I think my job is safe for a while...

I want 2025 to be my biggest year yet for the channel. I have huge plans for the whole year. It's hard to come up with new things after you've been doing YouTube for 8+ years, but I've got ideas and can't wait for you guys to see them soon.
