IMPORTANT EDIT: As this video continues to gain traction I want to reiterate that at no point should anybody attempt to seek out and harass this person over the contents of this video. The point of this video was to examine an interesting case study of a recent cheating incident, something that doesn't happen too often in SM64 these days. The purpose was NEVER to attack this person's character and it especially was never to give him any undeserved attention. I am still removing comments of people posting links to his streams and I will continue to do that. 95% of you guys have been great about this though and I thank you all so much for that. Subtitles have now been added. Thank you guys all so much for all the views and nice comments! I'm genuinely blown away by the amount of exposure and feedback the video has gotten. More videos to come in the future! In the meantime catch me doing some runs of my own over on Twitch: twitch.tv/charliebrown64
You should do a "catching cheats" type video series, similar to that of max boxe's tf2 series and many cs:go overwatch series, show us a speed running clip, have viewers guess if they cheated or not then reveal the answer and give the evidence as to why or why not.
I’m surprised no one questioned the fact that his head was tilting down and he had a hat on and couldn’t see if his eyes were actually covered by the blindfold and yet the chat really thought he wasn’t cheating lmao
@@RootbeerPremium I think 90% to 99% of the time bots aren't real, meaning 'claiming they're bots' is dumb to do in most cases. Like, those accounts are probably just people who are either ignorant, confused, barely paying attention anyway, or even 'in on it,' but them being "bots" is a stretch.
He basically gave himself away when he was like "If I TURNED AROUND and had a BLANKET OVER MY HEAD???" as if that was an insane thing to ask of someone who played blindfolded.
I mean, I can't blame him. With such good muscle memory his brain has got to be huge, blanket will both prevent blood pumping to the cerebellum, and it'll smooth out his brain wrinkles. He didn't say that to avoid making his viewers feel self conscious. What a humble king.
please keep beating the dead horse also this is an instant red flag to me see how you can’t see his left eye too well from the hat how the others it was clear they couldn’t see I mean one guy had a damn double wrapped towel but the blindfold he’s wearing looks very thin
@@deeformed2475 Its a reference to a fake speedrun from badabun. It is easily recognized as fake if you just watch a video explaining everything faje about it
He was asking himself whether in fact he could legitimately do it. After spending the last hour holding steadfast to a lie, he actually started to believe it himself.
I have been playing this game for 8 years. I've tried coaching blindfolded people, and I've been coached blindfolded. It's really, really brutally harder than it seems, despite me being able to close my eyes and visualize all the movement for any star.
Yea it's crazy how quickly he adjusts to failures. Like when he was failing owlless, he kept trying to wall jump and failing. Wouldn't he think after 3 failed wall jumps that he was in the wrong spot?
I like to come back to this video every so often despite having already watched it in completion several times because not only is it really well made, but watching this goober pretend to be blindfolded is the finest form of entertainment out there
@@SK-nl3ft no idea, I have no clue who he is or if he still streams or does anything at all. His legacy will forever be "that guy that did that fake blindfolded run"
Watching his little mind spin when someone after the run asked him to prove he could Bowser throw with a blanket over his head for $50...he sits there for 30 seconds trying to think of an excuse before finally just going....n..n...nooo. it's so great
You can see the gears on his head turning so fast as he was trying to think of a valid excuse as to not do so only to fail miserably and just say "uh, no" while making an entitled face expression
well actually the blindfold has Bright Screen Technology ™ which increases the effectiveness of the blindfold but you see bright white instead of black yep
@@CosmicFearWolf "for a LEGIT runner" that would've been the easiest 50 since he just has to do the same thing he did on the speedrun, which is something this guy had NO IDEA on what he was doing
Extra big shout out to *Yungestgravy* in the guy's chat. He was NOT falling the guy's bullshit even tho everyone else in chat was telling him he was wrong.
Any other runner would have done it right there just to prove it and probably not even taken the money. The guys who actually put all the work in take it seriously
I like how every other blindfold run has a good blindfold that covers most of the face from the bridge of the nose and up, but he has an elastic headband barely covering the under eye
My favorite part of all of this is how, when he's challenged to play the game turnt around with a blanket over his head, he has a confused stroke and you just know he's thinking to himself "but then I can't see"
@@cedricgiraud2679 Lmao I saw it as he realized that it didn't make sense for him to reject that request as he was rejecting it, since it shouldn't have mattered. But he was put on the spot and couldn't think of anything else to say so he still rejected it and it came out super awkward and obvious he felt put on the spot.
If he gave it another 10 seconds thought he'd be like... "well I'm exhausted now but I will do it tomorrow"; as he sets up a tablet to be his extended monitor and has it in his lap under the blanket.
@@Skelath Ah, I see you are professionally trained in the art of online learning. You're the level of cheater we deserved in this story, instead we got an amateur
He could've at least tried to give a half decent response like I thought up in mere seconds, "no I don't want to take my viewers money" or "I don't believe you would even if I did"
That’s something I noticed but couldn’t place exactly. The one guy used as a real example with some white cloth over his face and a blank wall, looked like his soul exited his body lol.
Yeah, those “blindfolds” are see through in the majority of these runs I bet. If runners wanna make it believable, have a vid camera of him looking away from the monitor with a blindfold on.
Yeah. Any real runner would take the oprstinuty to do something that they can do consistently, and doesn't take that long for $50. Especially content creators
I mean I don't doubt he's faking it, but in his defense he claimed to use sound cues and being turned around with a blanket over his head would definitely interfere with that
@@-wingsofwasp- watch the video. He claimed to know where a goomva was with sound ques. Sm64 doesn't have 3d sound. You hear the same sound same volume everything wimether you're 4 inches away from it or 4 feet
As someone who has played endless amount of Pokemon, let me just say blindfolded runs are no joke. Pokemon is a turn based RPG with WAY MORE normalized movement options, endless sound cues, easier movement etc. I still have yet to complete a single run, and I'm not even trying to go fast! So ya, I guess what I'm saying is that I really need to learn from this guy because clearly I'm not quite the god-gamer that he is!
I never would have expected to see you here, but I'm hoping you do a blindfolded run on your channel now. Fingers crossed and good luck if you're actively trying!
his clear lack of understanding of normalised strategies is the funniest. clearly in his mind it's 'doing a random sequence of inputs before the intended next action'.
no, you have to get hit by a goomba and say "Ah yes. I am located near the Bob-omb Battlefield 8 coin star. I must now head 16 steps Southeast to get one of the coins. After that I must head back and retrieve the Superstar."
i heard it's because they feel they deserve to have wr for their skills? like, they've practised speedrunning for so many times, but still can't achieve wr, so they get frustrated for the lack of recognition to the point they just cheat dont know if this applies to blindfolded runs, tho
Well people don’t have time to process these things in their brain while they are live. Also it’s a feeling of trust to somebody you know (maybe). That’s why everybody is a dumbass here , to be blunt.
I think that is probably because they are his subscribers. Let's say I'm a xqc subscriber. If he is found guilty of cheating I will be heartbroken. Because I'm his viewer
The one game I ever played blindfolded was Rhythm Heaven, specifically the song with the guy eating dumplings. You could do that purely by listening cause it's not like you had to turn a camera or move a character, so like you don't have to be an expert to do it. I don't even want to THINK about playing this game blindfolded, omg. Props to speedrunners! Cheating always sucks to see because people who do it for real practice and work so hard.
and 50 dollars. 50 dollars in 5min for something, you just did and had the pressure of a complete speedrun with you, but now just do it directly without any consequences
In his defence, he's asked whether he's "opposed" to doing that. Him answering with "no" suggests that he wasn't opposed and was therefore willing to do it.
i mean to someone who hasnt even played the game it can make sense that bowser throws are controlled by that, as in if you hold up on the joystick he will go away from the camera, back he will spin then stop at towards the camera, etc.
@@tannerteddo I've never played the game but unless Bowser causes some sort of rumble when you're looking a certain direction relative to him (which he doesn't) there's no way that could be a thing lol
Yeah, this is the most obvious fake I've seen in a while. I used to watch a lot of Ocarina of Time blind runs, and the amount of precision and fiddling to make sure you're in the exact right spot and this guy does none of that. He just bumps into a wall every once in a while to seem convincing. That dart for the 1-up was especially telling. Great work exposing this dude, the speed running community always needs to stand up to cheaters.
yeah, it’s pretty obvious he’s cheating he makes fake explanations on whatever he does to make it not look like he’s not looking also to me it’s pretty funny the fact that his first bowser throws were pretty good but at the third he missed lots of throws to which is kinda obviously he is cheating but he could’ve made it look like he wasn’t cheating when he was, also the fact that someone asked him to do BLJs with a pillow over his head to then decline? this is the worst fake run I’ve ever seen
Congratulations to any actual blind fold speed runners out there, who put actual hard work and effort into their videos. You all have amazing talents for video games, you are the true entertainment!
Notice he is always facing his monitor as well. He never looks away. Other blindfolded runners are always leaning in and out, moving their ears towards where they believe the screen is. This is a normal human function, even if we have earphones in we will still move around to try and hear better
He also slowly turns his head a lot during the entire thing. Great example at 13.09. He can't help but turn his head when spinning on the circular stone.
@@dream_walker9726 I'm just talking about how he didn't even match our basic human functions. Like when your scared of someone, you won't look at them often and you will very rarely look into their eyes when talking. Plus you'll probably talk shit about them to
The big tipper here is the fact that when he does just about anything, his head tilts back in the same direction, presumably towards his screen. Dude spends 50 seconds talking about Bowser throws and turning his head directly towards his camera for it, then turns back to make the throw. It's actually pretty sad that someone would sit there for an hour, in front of an audience, for a charade like this.
19:25 most obvious que he can see, apart from his head movements and gameplay, he just reached for his keyboard (even tilting the head down to go for the see-through section of the seefold) and then remembers shit I have to take my 'blind'fold off
@@RayvenFeather I mean some people like to not just go off of what people tell them, they probably want to see the link to 1: know that there is actually a video 2: judge for themselves if the apology is garbage or no.
He actually became Mario for this stream, he saw the world through his eyes. His body was blindfolded, but he could still see through the power of Mario
My favorite quotes from sarcastic chat members: Yungest Gravy- "Dang he must've been practicing this for months off stream then cuz to memorize these patterns would take hundreds of hours of practice." Yungest Gravy- "Did he just chase a 1-up?" Efrain Hernandez- "So you're blindfolded but you can read comments." Yungest Gravy- "The guy who has world record setups for the tail grabs incredible that you can bonk on Bowser and grab his tail." Yungest Gravy (the legend): "So would you be opposed to doing Bowser in the sky and throws when turned around with a blanket over your head and if you can do it as well as you did in the previous run I'll give you $50? As a challenge to prove, if not I understand (that you're a lying wank)." Leonardo Do Carmo Pontes- "Play ONE MATCH with your back to the camera..." Yungest Gravy- "Hey so do you think you could do Bowser throws with a pillow over your face? Just wondering. It would be a good way to verify." Conclusion: Yungest Gravy MVP of the chat.
“But what if he is a super human who can hear each individual pixil emit a quiet noise which he uses to deduce his location and the best moves to make?”
@@thequirkyunicorn9526 Which is pretty much why cheating is so rampant in the speed running community. They all cover these scumbags from hate they deserve so the only downside to cheating is temporary embarrassment. There are multiple high profile speedrunners who have been caught cheating multiple times and this attitude towards cheating is why many of them seem to "make a mistake" like this numerous times. Speedrunning isn't taken seriously by the wider gaming community outside of being considered a fad for multiple reasons but this is a major one.
@@theplaybunnyarcade3375 ... I'm sorry? Are you seriously trying to get me to agree to harassment, something that can make people kill themselves, just because someone cheated at a challenge that theres a big chance they'll get no recognition for? Once a cheater does not mean always a cheater, just because I cheated a speedrun once does not mean I deserve to be heckled everywhere I go and given no chance to change
I love how Badabun has become such a meme among the speedrunning community, considering how hated they are in the Spanish speaking community. Makes me happy
Honestly, if I were to fake a blindfolded run, I would at least learn SOME strategies. That 1-Up chase was absolutely hilarious, this is like the Badabun run but on steroids.
He clearly learned regular speenrun strats and realized he was very far from a sub 30 min run and just decided that he could pretend to do it blindfolded with zero knowledge of what that entails...
At least this guy actually played the game and knows SOME speedrunning strats. Badabun was just putting other people's videos together and called it their own
@@silverman1205 honestly I think that makes it worse. I don't think Tavo understood at the time how serious it was to the community involved since he wasn't really a part of it. He was a casual making a video for casuals. This guy knew what he was doing
@@timetribe Read the video description. He is responding to a tts message before the specific clip started. This video probably just edited it out because it wasn't important, without realizing it gave an incorrect impression.
Him grabbing the Penguin should’ve been the icing on the cake that he wasn’t actually blindfolded. He literally walked to it and knew where it was right away.
looking at other blindfolded speedruns, the penguin has a specific pathing and they all just run up to it and pick it up. But yeah, he has absolutely no setup there, and somehow is able to recover from missing his first grab attempt and just chases it.
That along with the door clipping is the biggest red flags, espically Fire Sea. I've seen how bad blindfolded runs in that can be, and my god you can CLEARLY see it's fake as fuck. That 1UP just fecking sealed it lol
"So in order to throw Bowser into the bomb, I'm launching a penny into space and calculating the trajectory in the targeted area of Jupiter to slingshot off it's gravity well to then return to Earth, completely avoiding burning up in the atmosphere. Once I hear the penny ding off my roof, I know when to throw him" would have been an equally believable response.
Watching his body language you can clearly see hes faking. He isnt just staring straight or looking at random due to lack of sight, hes looking intently at everything hes doing in game, focusing very hard to see. Watching him "lean" to the side as hes about to fall off the ledge in-game is clear sign too. He can see whats happening.

@@OptimusTraps bro getting a sub hour in your third run would already be fucking insane… If he would have beaten one off the greatest it wouldn’t even be a question if it was faked
I don't understand why somebody would even attempt to fake a speedrun, especially SM64. Speedrunners are some of the most dedicated players of a game and with a game as popular as SM64 they are bount to get caught in no time
The fact that he is not even a bad player too... He could be training and doing legit speedruns and maybe breaking records,but instead he chooses to do the most fake blindfolded run possible.
As someone who's never played super Mario 64 in my life this was suspicious but excusable, but the moment he refused 50 quid for the literally what he just did but via a different blindfold method I laughed. Mans took 20 seconds and actually contemplated it because of the money and still turned it down like it was chump change.
“I’ll give you $50 if you can do the same thing you just did supposedly blindfolded” I feel like that was the biggest sign. If you’re good at it that’s basically a free $50. But instead he just said “*No*” bruh
I'm grateful that you respect blindfolded speedruns. I do blindfolded speedruns as well, but I'll be honest I've never done blindfold speedruns of difficult games like SM64! I'm no where near good enough hehe 😅
@@Iwanttoblowmybrainsoutrn oh I’m not the only one who does this. I formed a whole video game map in my mind and it helps me remember where shit is or when my eyes are closed and where to go
For the first extra life thing, you forgot to mention that he said "fuck I didnt get that extra life" exactly when it drops off the edge and makes absolutely no sound to indicate it's gone 😂
@@Sir_Isaac_Newton_ The life moves around in random movements theres no guessing where its gonna go or how quickly it disappears, so for him to time it on his own without seeing is impossible. I've lost extra lives as quickly as a matter of seconds while the other times it's taken about a minute. His game starts argument would have to be for the entire video 😂
@@nighthowl2419 Oh, I didn't mean how long it takes to disappear, I was talking about it falling off the platform, which doesn't take too long. But yeah, ain't tryna defend him.
Does the life thingie make a noise when you pick it up? I don’t really wanna defend a cheater but my brain always has to employ logic for no good reason lol, and maybe he could have registered that he didn’t get the sound if there is one to say he picked it up and happened to say his thoughts out loud when it drops off, that kinda stuff happens. Don’t think I’m supporting and defending this dude tho lmao
As soon as he said “no” to retrying the bowser level with a blanket on his head, I got an ad saying “are you serious?” And it was a dating app, it’s a sign that that guy needs to get a life
@Neko Koshaichi w-what..? okay, first off, there is obvious proof this guy is faking? did you watch the video? they aren't just 'saying its fake'. i dont understand your point about speedrunning in general being cheating at all. cheating is, simply put, exploiting or breaking certain rules, right? video games.. dont have rules. you can cheat/fake a speedrun itself because there are rules to speedrunning and its categories. please rewatch the video. i dont think you understand anything it was saying/doing.
@Neko Koshaichi You’re the type of guy to have a teammate in CSGO hack and kill all your opponents in two seconds while standing still and call that just being pro. And then when the person gets kicked, you walk out and a random grenade kill you and you start screaming in the mic about how that dude is wall hacking.

Another thing, you can clearly see him changing camera angles in the middle of precise movements that he wouldn’t need to do if he was actually blindfolded.
The biggest red flag should have appeared during the end of the run when you see him think about whether or not he should do the $50 for Bowser in the sky. He took a couple of seconds before answering it, knowing that he'd been caught. It's honestly sad because I prayed actual legit blindfold speed runners in the hours and the preparation that they take to do it.
@@blackoverblueskies6221 best bit is when he hits the timer with his mouse while he is "blindfolded" and then remembers after the click to take down the "blindfold". ya know, cause he can't see.

He did a blind folded run and then denied $50 to prove himself which should’ve been easy. That’s a gigantic red flag.

Any other runner would have done it right there just to prove it and probably not even taken the money. The guys who actually put all the work in take it seriously

@@derkevevin he still could’ve proved himself.
I like how every other blindfold run has a good blindfold that covers most of the face from the bridge of the nose and up, but he has an elastic headband barely covering the under eye
My favorite part of all of this is how, when he's challenged to play the game turnt around with a blanket over his head, he has a confused stroke and you just know he's thinking to himself "but then I can't see"

Congratulations to any actual blind fold speed runners out there, who put actual hard work and effort into their videos. You all have amazing talents for video games, you are the true entertainment!
Notice he is always facing his monitor as well. He never looks away. Other blindfolded runners are always leaning in and out, moving their ears towards where they believe the screen is. This is a normal human function, even if we have earphones in we will still move around to try and hear better
He also slowly turns his head a lot during the entire thing. Great example at 13.09. He can't help but turn his head when spinning on the circular stone.

The big tipper here is the fact that when he does just about anything, his head tilts back in the same direction, presumably towards his screen. Dude spends 50 seconds talking about Bowser throws and turning his head directly towards his camera for it, then turns back to make the throw. It's actually pretty sad that someone would sit there for an hour, in front of an audience, for a charade like this.
Isn't he moving the camera too?
Also he is wearing a hat to cover his eyes
19:25
most obvious que he can see, apart from his head movements and gameplay, he just reached for his keyboard (even tilting the head down to go for the see-through section of the seefold) and then remembers shit I have to take my 'blind'fold off

Yungest Gravy- "Did he just chase a 1-up?"
Efrain Hernandez- "So you're blindfolded but you can read comments."
Yungest Gravy- "The guy who has world record setups for the tail grabs incredible that you can bonk on Bowser and grab his tail."
Yungest Gravy (the legend): "So would you be opposed to doing Bowser in the sky and throws when turned around with a blanket over your head and if you can do it as well as you did in the previous run I'll give you $50? As a challenge to prove, if not I understand (that you're a lying wank)."
Leonardo Do Carmo Pontes- "Play ONE MATCH with your back to the camera..."
Yungest Gravy- "Hey so do you think you could do Bowser throws with a pillow over your face? Just wondering. It would be a good way to verify."

Props to people who actually do these blindfolded. I can’t even walk up the stairs with my eyes closed 😭😭
I'm grateful that you respect blindfolded speedruns. I do blindfolded speedruns as well, but I'll be honest I've never done blindfold speedruns of difficult games like SM64! I'm no where near good enough hehe 😅
I know my entire house because of mental map
@@Iwanttoblowmybrainsoutrn oh I’m not the only one who does this. I formed a whole video game map in my mind and it helps me remember where shit is or when my eyes are closed and where to go
In the game, or in real life?

Bowsette

For the first extra life thing, you forgot to mention that he said "fuck I didnt get that extra life" exactly when it drops off the edge and makes absolutely no sound to indicate it's gone 😂
Edit: of course the comment below gets the likes.
@@Sir_Isaac_Newton_ The life moves around in random movements theres no guessing where its gonna go or how quickly it disappears, so for him to time it on his own without seeing is impossible. I've lost extra lives as quickly as a matter of seconds while the other times it's taken about a minute.
His game starts argument would have to be for the entire video 😂
@@nighthowl2419 Oh, I didn't mean how long it takes to disappear, I was talking about it falling off the platform, which doesn't take too long. But yeah, ain't tryna defend him.
@@Sir_Isaac_Newton_ it falling off is random, because its movements are random.
Does the life thingie make a noise when you pick it up? I don’t really wanna defend a cheater but my brain always has to employ logic for no good reason lol, and maybe he could have registered that he didn’t get the sound if there is one to say he picked it up and happened to say his thoughts out loud when it drops off, that kinda stuff happens. Don’t think I’m supporting and defending this dude tho lmao
As soon as he said “no” to retrying the bowser level with a blanket on his head, I got an ad saying “are you serious?” And it was a dating app, it’s a sign that that guy needs to get a life
Yikes no amount of senzu beans can heal this wound not even the super dragon balls
@@majinbuu9688 Dende can’t heal this dudes wounds
Bud Lite disapproves.
@Neko Koshaichi w-what..? okay, first off, there is obvious proof this guy is faking? did you watch the video? they aren't just 'saying its fake'. i dont understand your point about speedrunning in general being cheating at all. cheating is, simply put, exploiting or breaking certain rules, right? video games.. dont have rules. you can cheat/fake a speedrun itself because there are rules to speedrunning and its categories. please rewatch the video. i dont think you understand anything it was saying/doing.
@Neko Koshaichi You’re the type of guy to have a teammate in CSGO hack and kill all your opponents in two seconds while standing still and call that just being pro. And then when the person gets kicked, you walk out and a random grenade kill you and you start screaming in the mic about how that dude is wall hacking.

I looked up "See-through blindfold" and the first one I saw looked a whole lot like the blindfold the streamer uses
Edit: This is the most likes I have ever gotten on a comment! Thank you so much!
I feel bad for people who fell for his tricks and gave him money.
I feel bad too
I feel bad for people who give streamers money in General
@@stormsamba6070 what’s wrong with supporting a streamer?
@@diegodabagel7462 some people believe that people should look for themselves and stuff and save money for their needs. I think alike sometimes but hey let’s just respect each other’s opinions;)

Another thing, you can clearly see him changing camera angles in the middle of precise movements that he wouldn’t need to do if he was actually blindfolded.
Your comment confuses me. Do you think he’s actually blindfolded?
@@oxybrightdark8765 I completely understand why you are confused, I wrote this so improperly when I was tired out of my mind, sorry lol
Idk man I still understand it
@@playz_JThat's because he edited it
He wanted the viewers to see the strats so he could trick them
The biggest red flag should have appeared during the end of the run when you see him think about whether or not he should do the $50 for Bowser in the sky. He took a couple of seconds before answering it, knowing that he'd been caught. It's honestly sad because I prayed actual legit blindfold speed runners in the hours and the preparation that they take to do it.
Yeah he took wayyyy too long, you could see the wheels turning in his head, “Hmmm I need a legitimate excuse to say no”.
ForsenCD
Also, the fact that he said "Literally just muscle memory" after all the good plays
He literally read a message from chat when he was “blindfolded”
Yea lol
I think it was a bit cheer
19:17 the chat even called him out for it
@@blackoverblueskies6221 best bit is when he hits the timer with his mouse while he is "blindfolded" and then remembers after the click to take down the "blindfold". ya know, cause he can't see.
@@Firnienarya bruh, muscle memory man, he knows where his mouse is and exactly knows how many cm he gotta move it with his dpi setting so he can stop the timer
13:34 "I'm using sound cues!"
*Has an alarm with one of the game's sound effects blaring multiple times.*
And that, kids, is what we call a discrepancy!
@Elongated Muskrat Fair enough, yet it's still a pretty similar sound which can obfuscate the game's sounds.
@@NWolfsson it doesnt matter its similiar. just the fact that the sound is there could throw him offguard
*plays God tier if supposedly blindfolded*
"I'd be better if I practiced, this is just muscle memory". Not bragging at all 🤔🥴 Instant red flag.
at 14:17 someone in the chat literally said 'did he just chase a 1UP'
13:20 it happens
13:09
✅
Same guy that made the bet with him
It was the same man who challenged him to bowser throw with a blanket over his head
