Wow, not right after the video was released. Surprising.

“Say the line, Salt”
“Imagine a bus”
**Applause**
You see, SummonimgSalt Videos are just like waiting at a bus stop, you wait until the "BusStop reference" bus comes to pick you up and moves you Into bliss
And it doesn't matter if you skip to 2 frames before the bus reference or 20 frames before, you'll both get the reference at the same time.
I've always wondered why they used a bus instead of a train. Trains operate on much stricter schedules than buses.
@@gemorris2000 don't give me hope.

@@mottdropsie give it a few more years trust me.
@@mottdropsie as “impossible” as it seems. It’s the only way from here to go.
When I hear "impossible" "too precise" or "too difficult for a human" in the speedrunning community I end up translating it to "give us a bit we'll figure it out"
In my mind “TAS-only” and “Too precise to do humanly” are both just “not feasible for a human being to preform”

@@VccTn its just a quirk of english, i dont know the name of it, but when you use words like "we" or "us", it isnt clear if it includes the person being spoken to. (i.e "we just won the lottery", its unclear if the speaker is referring to themself and others or themself and you, the listener)
@@VccTnI don’t think you should be correcting people’s english out of all people
@@VccTnhow would you know they don’t run. Zero indication of that.
Also rich you’re correcting someone’s grammar when you can’t even type to begin with
And lastly it’s speaking third hand, as in - from someone that is being spoken about - Salt saying it’s not possible, and one of the runners musingly just asking for some time
Imagine incorrectly critiquing someone’s joke
My favorite part about summoning salt is how he’ll be talking about how someone made an extremely important discovery and then their name is something like “420_blazit” or something.

I laughed a lot when he said “he actually had 1 frame of wiggle room” like woah mans could’ve took a vacation in that
Lol ikr
Those .02 seconds are real useful
also great word choise with "wiggle room" haha, wiggle means going back and forth, that's literally impossible to do in 1 frame LMAO
I mean, it is literally twice the amount of time.
@@hendy24 not true, you can wiggle several subpixels :)
I think my favorite progression in these stories is always the slow transition from “impossible for humans to achieve” to “regarded as impossible for humans” to “being attempted by top runners” to “it was finally achieved by”
Last step being "common/necessary in top runs"
@@Heydelios I've seen another step where it becomes the suboptimal strategy and is eventually replaced by another technique ranging from exactly 0 frames better to several hours off the record compared to previous methods' best times, depending on the game.
Speedrunners are determined. In a few more decades they'll be beating games before they're even ideas in the creator's mind.
"How is exactly 0 frames an improvement?" Because the other method requires less effort or training to learn/execute. Getting the same completion time for less button presses *IS* an improvement, even if it isn't applicable to the leaderboards.

He could make paint drying entertaining. I was like sweating on the toilet watching this 😅 his voice is so relaxing and the videos are edited to perfection. Summoning salt speed runned into my heart.
A tenth of a second a lot of tkm when we're talking about frames here. It's hard to save a second on anything

I saw that and decided to rewatch this haha
Same!
Absolute madness

"This... is 420 Blazit." The deadpan delivery of that line had me rolling a bit
The way he says gamer names like a documentery always cracks me up. Cant wait for "Then... xX_PussySlayer_Xx did it"

Can you imagine 420 Blazit when he's 50 years old showing his grandkids this video..
Old man voice: yup that's me 420 blazit I used to kick ass and roll blunts back in my day we were changing the way people looked at video games

This is awesome. It shows a frame perfect full speedrun is possible
For anyone late to this video like me, 8-4 was run perfectly by two runners over a year and a half ago. The wr as of 4 days ago was tied with the TAS up until 8-4. Humans are 22 frames away from Any% perfection.
It’s kinda insane to think a human could feasibly beat a game the fastest way possible. You always think to yourself, “i wonder when the world record will be beaten next”
@@KraZTheKidwhen the goat nifstky coms back to the categorie
Asking as someone who has zero prior knowledge of this subject, could you explain why you say 22 frames? At the end of this video, it is stated that the community is now only 2 frames away from perfection (that one fast acceleration in 8-4). Do the 22 frames refer to the best attempt at a full game speedrun, while the 2 frames refer to the best attempt at level 8-4 only?
@@lotuzz7409 yea I think when this video was made runners were 2 frames from perfection just on 8-4. It is 22 frames from a perfect full run of the game

True
"He actually had a frame of wiggle room", now that's a ridiculous sentence.
it's literally impossible to wiggle within a single frame, so yeah
@@lydiasteinebendiksen4269 it is possible though, a minuscule 1 frame wiggle but a wiggle nonetheless. Would be impossible if it was a 0 frame wiggle.
"We have reached the human limit of the frame perfect wiggle" should be the next SS vid
@@lapidations aka subpixel wiggle room ez enough
It is. Like how causally he says you have 1 frame wiggle time is nuts.
Update to this video:
1. 8.4 had been fully completed down to the frame
2. Nobody has been able to put these all of the levels together for a perfect run
3. Niftski holds the current record with a time of 4.54.798 and he’s had it for almost a year
4. The community still continues to this day to get the time lower and lower

"A tenth of a second faster than anyone else. Pure domination."
Speed running is insane
Lmao I love this so much
to be fair, 1 tenth of a second isnt only a lot in speed running. 1 tenth is 100m sprint is also a decent amount. not saying speed running isnt insane but its not the only thing that domination is measured in such small amounts.
@@Lvxurie did you just compare 1/10th of a second to 1/10th of a hundred meter dash
@@worsethanem3660 it was a typo. Should say "1 tenth in.."
@@Lvxurie then again, what is a 100m run if not quite literally a speed run?
Shigeru Miyamoto watching people utterly break his game: "I don't remember programing that..."
Tbh, this game's perfect speedrun (as in, the TAS which aims to complete the game as fast as possible under any circumstance) is a pretty clean run, playing *almost* as intended by the developer. Some fast accel's and FPG's here and there, few incorrect warps - that's about it. This is nowhere close to speed runs that completely break the game and go out of bounds all the time such as Half-Life 2 or instances such as Oblivion / Morrowind / GTA San Andreas (skipping the entire god damn campaign!)
SMB speedun still needs to play all the levels that a normal player would do to beat the game quickly. No glitchy skips there. Mario64 was much glitchier in that regard, as players gradually discovered ways to beat the game with less and less stars (out of 70 that is originally required). They brought this down to 30, then to 16, then to just 1 and finally to 0.
@@alewis514 I think he's more talking about the little things, like wall jumps from the single frame thinking mario is standing up, and similar stuff like that. there's many times where I never realized I programmed something weird like that and when shown was at a total loss because it never crossed my mind I was implementing. in this case it was used for hit detection and probably to stop a bug, so leaving it in just meant the game worked, not to mention the game is nearly 40 years old.
Shigeru is a game designer, not a programmer. He doesn't program any of his games.
@Alan Fitzgerald No that's not how programming works. Oh I misunderstood what you meant.

Andrewg is up there too
matt turk is synonymous with NES speed running so i don’t blame you
Still kind of hilarious that running this game is so optimized that being over "a tenth of a second ahead of anyone else on the leaderboard" is "pure domination"
"By 2026, players had learned that subpixels were well too large a gap, and many had taken to direct manipulation of the electrons in the wire that connected the controller to the console to save two millionths of a second. This was it. Humans had reached the limit of how fast Super Mario Bros could be played according to Einstein's estimates of the limit of light speed."
"...but then..."
Unsurprisingly, some players decided to play the game with chips made up of ybco superconductors, thereby manipulating the flux pinning of the magnetic field, so as to direct the electrons toward the right bus of the system through quantum tunnelling, causing a stream of parallel muons and anti muons perpendicular to the electron stream and thereby shifting mario by the order of some trillion plank lengths in only some billion plank-seconds, thus saving the right time to reach perfection

Do you think the smb1 mods are a bunch of idiots? Do you think the other speedruners who respect lekukie and use his setups are also idiots? Do you think the mod who approved of this exact record hasn't thought about the ways it could have been cheated and eliminated those possibilities?

Competitive speedrunning in a nutshell:
Competitive speedrunning really do be like that. Any minor optimization at the endgame, taken to its limit, leads to a borderline unbeatable gap of the tiniest of proportions.

Dude i wouldn't even be mad that would be like go out putting a smile on everyoen's face and make everyone lose their shit at the same time.

*one piece opening plays*
@@singletona082 It'd be like a video game version of "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World". The hunt for "The Big W".
"2 frames from perfection" sounds like a great band name.
there's a film music company called "two steps from hell" that released a lot of very famous epic orchestra pieces.
"2 frames from perfection" would be the chiptune equivalent, right?
@@HolyShinta Or the animation equivalent.
1 frame from perfection now*
@@GumSkyloard That'd be the company that makes music videos from the films
This was suggested by TikTok and then TH-cam auto downloaded it, i love technology knowing what i like
they control you 😂
@@killua962 maybe, but i find this video really worthwhile and interesting as i love how videogames can make their own history and amazing people comes from them
if you ignore that they're definitely stealing your data, sure.
I know my old history teacher in 11th grade once broke out his NES and bet us all that he could beat the game for us in under 10 minutes, and our little teenage minds were blown when he beat it in 8 minutes. Speed running is awesome.
“He was more than a tenth of a second ahead of anyone else on the leaderboard. Pure domination” is such a testament to how optimised this speedrun is.

After 36 years it was bound to be optimized.
@@honkhill1355
I doubt anyone expected it to be optimized to the point where every frame matters in one way or another
Still, it's an incredible display of skill
@@unnoticed4571 You are right, though even if it wasn't this frame optimized it would still look insane being just a few second behind a TAS. People worked very hard to get here and the results are impressive.
Me, a Summoning Salt scholar during a dramatic pause: 'It's either Matt Turk or AndrewG'.
His dramatic pause for "420 Blazit" was incredible.
I am surprised it isn't SSSniperwolf at this rate...
@@penfold1992 ?
I was thinking Darbian!
All this time spent saving so little time, so ironic
I'm gonna tell my kids this was the Super Mario movie
It’s way better
"It's physically impossible to go faster than this"
We've heard that one before.
AYO WHATS GOOD
imagine using a keyboard, and keybinding a series of keys to an exact sequence of buttons, and then clicking them at *almost* the same time in such a way that they register in the game the way they need to. i figure that could get around the supposed impossibility of it, since that way a single finger wouldn't have to move at that speed, just the computers ability to register it. is that allowed?
@@davidlewis6728 no. It is not
@@davidlewis6728 as far as I remember, no. They have to use an unmodified nes controller
@@davidlewis6728
No speed run allows macros iirc
"imagine that this little castle that mario walks into, is not a castle but a bus stop."
Ah shit, here we go again
Coming back to this after watching niftskis run is so eye opening like how did he do that all in one run
"These framerules will never be broken!"
"Hold my beer."
When you hear the Summoning Salt music you know what you are going to be doing for the next hour.
Ima be jamming out in bed
Half hour, if you watch at 2x speed like me.
Uh hour? Listening for 2 sleeping for the rest cuz god summoning salt documentaries are SOOTHING!
Nah man, this is going to be another binge night where I watch them all again. Every single new video, same ritual. Good thing I have 9.5 hours before work in the AM
Getting popcorn and soda, even though it gives me acid at this time of night?
"You might have heard of this runner"
It's andrewG isn't it
"AndrewG"
Woooooooooooo
Genuinely thought it was about to be that damned Matt Turk
Chaz Mcdickinson came here to post this, I was damned on expecting "The key was in a run from 1998 by a runner known as.... Matt Turk" or some such plot twist
Anon Emoose “As runners pushed for 4:53, a mysterious tape emerged from 1997. The runner, was Matt Turk, and the time, a 4:52.98”
It was either gonna be him, or Matt Turk 🤷♂️😂
With Windows XP!
2 days ago, niftski broke the record. We are now 1 frame away from perfection.
Fr
The sum of best has been perfection for 6 months
That's his 4:54:798 wr not the sob. Lekukie achieved the perfect 8-4 6 months ago which means we have reached perfection
This literally made me tear up. I love video games. I love the human condition.
I could never have imagined this was the future of Mario, as a little kid at my grandmas just gaming away.
Me in 2012: Speed-running is silly.
Me in 2021: Speed-running pushes the bounds of what is humanly possible.
Respect.
I now understand why TAScorp is called like that in meta runner. Having a robot arm to help you speedrun faster definetely counts as a "tool assisted speedrun" lol.
@@qwertydavid8070 man who forgot to tell me about the robot arms? I've just been using like... frame advance and input files to make my tases.
@@qwertydavid8070 saying robot arm made me thing of someone speedrunning a game with the power glove
Yo holy shit I really have been watching gdq for 8 years now
Me in 2021: speedrunning is silly and also the most incredible thing ever
"The Human Limit" This is it, the video about ascending humanity and becoming a God all for the sake of getting a second less on the record.
It's not a second. It's 1/30 of a second. Humans are the best kind of insane.
To reach immortalality for all ages
I REJECT MY HUMANITY, JOJO!!!!
To be fair if there's a way to ascend to godhood we just need to put the solution into some barrier skip in a platformer that saves like 0.3 seconds and people will figure it out.
I can't tell you how perfect the intro music is. That alone make sme want to watch this with anticipation. Thank you for your work. Amazing.
As of right now Niftski is only 0.371 seconds away from the 4:54.26! Are you fricken kidding me?!?
Salt: Framer-
Everyone: IMAGINE A BUS
Ah yes
Framer
I know that!
Didn't think I'd find my favorite mkwii TASer here.
