You a cornball, SON
This was by far the hardest I've worked on one of these videos. Hope you enjoy!
Summoning Salt A+ content ever since WARP Mike Tyson and this holds up just as well good sir. Still a very proud patreon supporter and will continue to be
love your work and your videos. Makes my day
as someone who's never had a chance to play DK64, you explained its mechanics beautifully and i think this is one of your most accessible videos yet, fantastic job!
It's so good. I enjoy all of your videos and think they're well done, but the extra work you put into this one shows.
Summoning Salt they get better every time

"Nobody Could Be Faster, Until...: The Speedrun Story"
Thats true
It's always like that ahahhah
unless....
The 4 hour run was glitchless wasn't it? So it prohably is rhe fastest for that category
"When speedrunners today look back at that 30 hour estimate, we laugh."
because speedrunners spend 30,000 hours playing this game to optimize their run.
Took you 'only' 30 hours? I spent 30 hours grinding the opening alone!
willyolio 30,000? Ha! That would be barely enough total time for a community to optimize the first 5 minutes, but that’s just how speedrunning works.
Instead of working at a real job :/

me, who has never played DK 64: “a sub 25 minute?! that’s absolutely insane.”
LMAO ikr forreal 😂😂
thing is: even when you have played DK64, that reaction is exactly the same. the game is fucking HUGE, even when you are not collecting everything.
imagine you’re just chilling one day after making a world record a couple days ago, you look at the chart to see if anyone is catching up and someone beat your record by 3 hours
Dude, awesome video, and LOVE the music you use
Yes! Everytime I watch a Summoning Salt video I always recognize one of the tracks he uses!

"Explaining the world record progression of DK64" (TH-cam) by Summoning Salt in 24:47 [WR]
If only it was 12 seconds longer 😭😭
I can beat that.. Optimized explaining, shorter cuts, maybe no cuts at all.
Shane Flett cut the start and you get ~-35 seconds.
There's a cut you can do at the start to skip the intro sequence so you can save ~36 seconds. Combined with clicking off the video while the Patreons pop up on the screen, you can save ~1:18.
@@Ajaaw why'd you type the same thing I did plus patreon?
Imagine ordering a pizza and then beating donkey Kong 64 while you wait
"You guys might know him from his legendary Super Mario Bros. speedruns."
I can't be the only one who thought he was talking about andrewg1990
I did too
Never heard of him
Sibree Watch the Super Mario Bros WR Progression for more details.
I mean 6:15 definitely seems like a hint
NinjaCell that’s what I thought
Just want to take this chance to say that you're skills as a documentarian are something special. Creating an emotional, engrossing narrative out of factual information is something many pros never nail down. Keep doing what you're doing, you've got something special going here
ranma nice catch
Agree 100%
agreed. It's like we have beent taken on a journey back in time, I really feel like I'm watching the speedrunners at that time. Love this channel!!
sjslw01 your*
Especially the great music from classic games he uses are on point to go with the narrative.
That's insane. Absolutely no progress on the game for three years, then, within a five-day period, the game gets turned on its head. Thank you for sharing this in such an enjoyable form.
"So how do you beat DK 64 quickly?"
"You make a monkey shoot oranges to create lag, therefore letting you faze through a door.
phase* but otherwise correct
I just don't get it. I'm not a big fan of speedruns (except for wacky TASes like Megaman X+X2 single controller) even though I know all the games, but I'm binging through your vids for the whole day. You're... Phenomenally good at what you're doing and I have zero idea why. It's just so appealing to watch. And your music choices are extremely great, thanks for compiling music lists for each episode. Subbed!
ThyVile it’s explained in such a way that even if someone has never played the game.. they are able to get into what happens next. His documentary style is quite universal
Yeah, I don't do speedruns either, but I find these videos fascinating. I think it is a subliminal interest in watching childhood nostalgia. These speed run videos are like 20 minute redux of my favorite games plus reading a cheat-code magazines. I loved reading those cheat-code books as a kid lol
Dandylionheartedness it’s more to do with this guys talent of knowing the right way to make a documentary. His voice is great for narrating and he shows the progression in a simple and slow pace
this is exactly me
I'm in the same boat. I could care less about the runs but these videos are great.
We got the time down, *_BUT AT WHAT COST?!?_*
one day the world record could be a single second
or not that sounds too silly. maybe 10
Pff, just look at the Super Mario World records. Somebody may figure out a memory breaking glitch and BAM skip right to that final punch.
At the cost of ripping a game to pieces.
Everything
Everything.
30h --> 25min
That playtime got banana slammad
spoiler aletr
25 minutes of trash though. That game is garbage.
@@KhamStronk OOF
It wasn't 30 hours. It was 4 and a half. 30 hours was just an estimate of casual playthroughs by someone reviewing the game.
Eating Banana:
Green = Wait a few days...
Yellow = Go for it!
Red = What?
Blue/purple: *w h a t e v e r i s h a p p e n i n g ? ?*
Red bananas actually exist. I have eaten them. They are shorter than normal and not really sweet.
Looks like im the only one that got the refrence
But on traffic light, it the opposite!
Red = Wait a few days...
Yellow = What?
Green = Go for it!
*could've sworn I saw this on tumblr*
Casual gamers: I just clipped through a wall, I hope this doesn't happen to anyone else
Speedrunners: I just clipped through a wall, I hope this happens to EVERYONE
"I clipped through a wall, I hope I can figure out how I did it so I can do it again"
Just became a patron and probably a bit overdue. Your WR progression vids bring me so much joy- even when I have no connection with the game. They are so well done, so well researched and I can't wait to see what's next. I can tell this video took a long time to make, not to mention the research that goes into it. Seriously, keep it up. You have a gift and you're so good at this. Don't be fooled by off label 'WR Progression' vids- SummoningSalt is the master of the WR Progression vids.
hey summoningsalt is pretty good but I've watched some pretty damn good "offbrands" before. just take the super mario sunshine wr progression by averagetrey for example.
I'm seeing a trend here. "I don't think anyone can beat my time."
Beats his time.
solarplexus7 in a short amount of time, usually
"How long can this ridiculously optimized run stay?"
"Few hours,xxx took the record on the same day"
first guy is still the only one to not skip shit. he still has the record in my opinion.
Been Savage Not for the any% record.
Well, that's because half the time glitches are found to lower times or more official calculations (such as Zelda with drop tables). Also, the rest of the time is them thinking their run is the best possible. It's called ego, ignorance, and lack of foresight. Welcome to the human race. ;)
When will we get to see a wr progression oon banjo-kazooie? Always loved watching speedruns of it.
Be patient, his content is really good. Rushed work is not good work.

God damn I love this channel
My first run of DK64 took me 7 years to beat, pretty sure that's world record
Not sure what it's a world record for but it's a record for something
speedrun strats
I literally subscribed to notifications for this channel last night because i was thinking, “Hmm, it’s been a while since summoning salt uploaded a video”
haha it took me 10 years to 100% that game (only because I took a 9 year break in between though)
THe opposite of a speedrun, a slowstroll?
Ique record for your first run?
Speedrunners: So you say the game is 30 hours long?
How about... 30 minutes?
For anyone curious, it stands as 24m30s today! It's been 7 months since that record has been set, and over a year ago a 24m50s run was done. The record showed in the video is in 3rd place so far.
Neat!
wonder what it's at now
So now the speed run of the game is shorter than the video of the history of the speed run by 10 secs
hey, i was going through the Music List you have and noticed that you just had "???" listed as the song for 20:44 in this video; the song is from the Rise of the Triad soundtrack, and it's called "Goin' Down the Fast Way"
i love your vids, they're super good!
"he thought twitch would save his footage, but was taken down"
and this is why I use the highlight system to basically make a copy of my orignal footage by slightly trimming the beginning and ending while renaming it. That way it isn't tied to the 30-day limit the regular footage is normally deleted afterwards
These videos are so fucking good. I know these comments are broken records, but the effort and execution are beautiful. Your voice and the way you explain the game and the runs are both just perfect.
Well this guy loves broken records
record breaking comments
That top gear sound track 😩👌
The very best of the SNES soundtracks..
I know how complicated the history of this game is and seeing it explained so well was awesome to watch. So many names I haven't seen in years lol. Awesome job!

I find it amazing when small groups of people gather together. Humans have done this for millennia. You can tackle a challenge that is generally assumed to be worthless if you can gather together a few people. If you have a group of people genuinely encouraging each other there’s not much that can’t be done!
Tadesan that was very Motivational thank you
We sure have a lot of group gatherings now
I always find DK 64 hilarious. I remember thinking how solid it felt as a kid and like the most out-there thing you could do was use Lanky to clip through Banana Signs.
Oh, how I was wrong.

Just binged all of your videos, I absolutely love the dedication that is apparent in them. I can see you used to speedrun Tyson's Punch Out before stumbling on this niche and I'm curious, do you enjoy creating the videos as much as you do speedrunning? Surely it's more lucrative.
Anyway, keep up the good work.
I always come back to these videos. So relaxing to watch, thanks for all the effort you put in!

You stole my comment >:(
Really love your videos. The hard work you put in shows so much I just want you to know.
You should do a Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door one. There have been several people vying for the record over the years and a ton of amazing tricks have been found that make the run really interesting to talk about.
The Luigineer I love that game so much. Never looked into speedrunning it, but I did a peril Mario build on my last run and it was incredible. Shadow Queen was over in the minimum turns thanks to multibounces hitting for 12 damage per jump. I love any game that has mechanics that can be relentlessly abused
Palace skip has to be one of the biggest single skips in speedrunning history.
Elf Monster that or WW barrier skip.
I would love a ttyd world record progression, but I would honestly prefer a paper mario 64 video because of its many big skips
@@PokeMario-pk4ot PM64 would be great too (although don't underestimate how crazy TTYD's glitch hunting has been), and besides, it seems like Malleo is getting around to the TTYD ones
My favorite little thing in your videos is when you say they "got to the final boss at world record pace" and then show the last bit of the run. Always gets me in the mindset of someone watching not knowing what's going to happen.
its amazing how much you evolved in the editing and storytelling in the past 3 years.
Keep up the great work
11:33 - Infinite Anumission :D
I love your videos Summoning Salt. I'm a software developer, and I actually re-play your entire library back to back almost every day during my work day. Really easy to listen to and well put together. Keep up the good work please!
Signakong just beat Falcon by 1 second like 2 weeks ago! 24:58 right now
24:30 by Signa after someone beat that one
Stumbled upon this by accident, by far one of my favourite series on TH-cam right now keep them coming please
I like how in the wiki page for the year 2009, 2009 was also the "Year of the Gorilla"... It was meant to be
Obama became president in 2009
Yikes
I love these videos so much I watch them time and time again. Keep making them my guy!
Should've made the video length 24:59
Why?
because of what happened at 23:40
Duh, that's what the world record is!
The Cando Railfan fair enough
he's just predicting the next WR run
The name RingRush sounds familiar. It might be the same RingRush that's screwing around with Shadow the Hedgehog strats now.
If it is him, I never knew he ran DK64 at one point.
Shoutouts to RingRush for finding a bunch of No A Press stuff for Shadow the Hedgehog, and apparently running DK64 as well.
ya he does 0 a press for dk as well
No A press StH? Holy crap I have to watch this
Maybe we can even get pannen involved
Can I just say, I'm really enjoying all of these videos. You do a great job explaining how things are done and what techniques were discovered when. It's great!
I just wanted to comment and make it very clear how much I appreciate this series. It's so well done and edited and I'd hate for it to end simply because you might not get the recognition you deserve.
Keep up the amazing work, man.
I don't get why the virtual console run isn't just a separate category. The lack of lag makes it functionally different.
Fun. It's an oficial emulator though. Usually emulators are banned if they're not legitimate to the company.
Anyways, its always the runner's decisions. SM64 has It Split, this doesnt
The community (Consisting of both VC & N64 runners) has decided several times to not split the leaderboards. Whilst no lag does give VC a severe advantage, and makes a meh VC time look better than a great N64 time, we still class it as the same game.
There is also a filter function on SRC anyway which allows you to see the N64 leaderboard or the VC leaderboard for a certain category. Most N64 runners look at that for goals and where they are.
You're basically just restating the fact that they made the decision (which goes without saying), and then not elaborating. Personally, as someone not in that community, it seems like a dumb choice.
tails512 there are examples miles Worse. Bayonetta on PC saves 15mins alone in a 105min speedrun, yet all consoles run the same leaderboard
@@tails512 not sure what you mean by not elaborating. We have had several community votes and the result has always been the same. If you want the reason then you should ask the people who voted not to split.
23:39 YOOOOOO IS THAT THE BEST FALCON MAIN IN THE WORLD?!?!
He didn't down taunt after the falcon punch on K. Rool, obviously a fraud.
Love your videos bro. Very exciting from start to finish. Like the king of Kong doc. Great work!
Man I love your videos, it make me relax after a hard day.
Thanks for that.
i just love your chanel i was so happy getting the notification you uploaded a new video
and you know how to comment, cut, and always playing a fitting musik
keep going my friend
I love this series. The best-made and most entertaining content on youtube atm imho. I am always so hyped when you upload your WR progression videos. Keep up the good work :)
Sebastian Richter agreed
I'm going to tell my kids that when lenin said "There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks where decades happen" he was talking about the great donkey kong revolution of june 2009
Just found your channel man. I’m loving it!
Thank you for explaining all of these. I have known these games for my whole life, but didn't know about speedrunning until last year!
the record stands at 24:30 by Signakong as of 3/4/2021
Damn, people are still trying even today :O
That's a crazy time, not a lot of room for improvement! Unless they find some other game-breaking glitch lol
Respect to all the work you put into making these. Explaining the game before hand etc.
These videos are actually incredible thank you so much for them
Doooooooooooood! It's time for another already!! I'm literally waiting for the next episode! Need more episodes in a season!
alegro pirlo Sure, it does take time, and speedruns might be a bit more complicated to compile a comprehensive history of, but he should be able to release at a slightly faster rate. Think of it as making a speedrun of speedruns.
John Rogers He is a full time student and has a job, so making these videos are not his first priority in life. He will release them when he can, and the wait makes the eventual video release that much better. Just chill.
*DooD*
I think I just beat the wr for the fastest time subscribing to your channel on an individual video!
Khed what was your time
Ryan Amburgy it was a solid 6.87 seconds

30h to 25 minutes

Speedrunners: *a small price for salvation*
I was never this interested into speed runs until I found your channel, these are awesome 👌
Love these videos, such a nostalgia trip
My favorite part of these videos is when someone becomes to the first to get the time down to a significant milestone, sub-30 in this case, only to have the record snatched away almost immediately. It's hilarious in a weird way.
I always enjoy seeing the Top Gear soundtrack get some love. Thanks for including it in this video.
Randomly stumbled across one of your videos like two weeks ago , since subscribing have watched nearly all your uploads , awesome stuff , very well narrated and they are all thoroughly entertaining videos no time wasting click bait here

I had to mention that i've probably seen this specific video about 5 times at least (along with the rest of your vids) but i JUST NOW noticed that fucking sick remix of Going Down the Fast Way. Bonus points.
I love the synthwave in the background but the Perfect Dark pieces every now and then are also a real treat :D
OoT would actually be the spiciest one
pls deliver
Especially with the major skips discovered, especially the deku tree --> Ganon's tower bringing it down to the low 17s. Honestly I love world record progressions with heavy glitch techs, it's crazy seeing how people break the game and abuse the code (I.e. Super Mario World)
DON'T MAKE ME BEG FOR IT
I think he should do 2 episodes, like he did for sm64. 1 for any%, and 1 for 100% and all dungeons
Nickzurt agreed
Wake Dont forget the gender controversies, I can see the heated debates in the comment section already 🔥🔥🔥
And to think that Signa beat the record on 11/09/2019 with a 24:51. Insane how long that 24:59 held.
Though simple your editing is really effective and that's one thing I really like about your videos
I'm bingeing this channel at work. Keeps me entertained while I do some pretty mindless data entry! :D
But how fast can they beat Beaver Bother?
no one can actually beat beaver bother. its a myth
Holy shit I hated that mini game with a passion
Donkey Kong 64 speed running was the most important thing in the world for 24 minutes and 48 seconds
I started watching because.. Well your videos are like unique documentaries. But now I started to re-watch a lot of videos because they are very calming and help me sleep.
So I wanted to thank you!
Finishing this video with Stranger in Moscow (barking dogs edition) was the best way you could've ended it and it's much appreciated!
I've been watching your channel since a month, I watch one video each dinner as I eat, and it's a blast all the time!

Are you aware of the spiritual successor, Overload?
You sir, get a like for the Descent catch.
I think they like Descent. 1:58 should be a track of Descent
Glad to know I wasn't the only one to catch it. Oldschool dos love.

For people wondering what remix of Going Down The Fast Way he used, it's by Henrik Johnson.
Can you do "World Record Progression: Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (N64)" soon or in the later future?
I know this is a late reply but it has really changed in the past 2 years.. mostly in the past few months.
