Thank you so much for covering our community and my 120 star run! It was an absolutely crazy journey over the past recent years and to finally say that 120 has been beaten blindfolded is still crazy to think about. For anyone who is interested in more blindfolded speedruns or blindfolded SM64 in general, I have of course still many more projects planned, so stay tuned!
It's because blindfolded speedrunners are experts in the game and know how to move and navigate. The only 'problem' is the handicap in form of a blindfold.
1:29 “Not only is this possibly the greatest blindfold achievement of all time, but it’s up there with one of the greatest gaming achievements ever in general.” But have you ever heard of William Mitchell? Don’t get me wrong, this guy is impressive too, but he doesn’t hold a candle to the King!
@@peterpyzer Yeah I did a two hour stream and it turned out I lost internet connection 16 minutes in but because I was watching the game I had no way of knowing.
Well beating it blindfolded is simple when you realise all you need to do is be able to see through your "blindfold" 😂 At least he wasn't eating pizza at the same time.
@ Hazy maze cave was in the top 5, it's definitely one of the stars with the most route changes because many parts are challenging and the camera in that stage is a nightmare. He actually did get lost there with like 80 coins in the run but recovered his position because he's a fucking genius
So glad that Karl covered this! The guy's video had a criminally low amount of views for how massive this achievement is. I didn't watch the whole run live, but did so on TH-cam over several nights and was just completely blown away.
Amazing video with incredible explanations, Bubzia's achievements and hard work are legendary! The work that blindfolded speedrunners put into creating and remembering these strategies, and memorizing backup plans (and backups for your backups), it's mind-blowing
This run deserves to be watched beginning to end. It took me about a week and a half but I managed to watch it in its entirety. Talk about an emotional rollercoaster. This is one of the most amazing feats I have ever witnessed.
Would love him to return and finish the every perfect dark champions series oh wait that doesnt get a million views what a legend. Been here since 1000 subs. Great job karl act like we dont even exist. Dont even mention Ryan whites untied bc reddit tried 2 cancel u. Spineless.
I mean, being blindfolded without having an anxiety attack and staying sit for 12 hours without eating or going to the bathroom is already an impressive feat.
Absolute madness. I remember how unforgiving Super Mario 64 was when I was a kid, and that was with me being able to see. Not in a million years, would I ever guess that gamers were willing to attempt to play it completely blind! Major props to Bubzia for taking on such an incredible feat! He deserves the fame for all his hard work!! :D
Bubzia's runs are just amazing. I mainly know him from watching his Blindfolded runs of Metroid: Zero Mission, which are already insane, but a 3D game like Super Mario 64 with all 120 stars is an incredible achievement and the work and effort put into just performing a single session run is more than remarkable and shows off the true dedication. Even if you have speedrun a game and you think you know it by heart due to your muscle memory, all of what you thought you mastered to perfection gets instantenous shattered into pieces from the lack of sight. Simply amazing, Bubzia.
I was there in the chat, and remember seeing Karl there and thinking, "Yep, this'll be his next video". I was nearly as nervous as Bubzia was during BitS, and shared his feeling of happiness and excitement for him after every clutch moment, and especially when he finished it! I'm sure it's gonna be another masterpiece from the most legendary of absolute legends, just like the speedrun was!
I really enjoy how this gave some background information about what blindfolded gaming is and how it works. I was there for the run, and it was definitely something special. Great video
Incredible video! I can't even imagine completing a challenge this huge, but the way you described blindfolded runs was amazing imo, you really explained what it feels like as if you tried yourself! Also, as someone who followed Bubzia since half way through the journey, you really gave me 120 grinding vibes back! As of Bubzia, he really made history with that run, as he did 4 years ago with the first run! He really has a passion, a dedication and, more than anything, and amazing creativity that ultimately ended up in a ridicolously insane idea being humanly performed!
I've watched that video start to finish over a few days. It's a crazy feat, a testament to his patience, endurance and being able to pay attention to the smallest audio cues.
Imagine being the first and only person out of billions of people to be do something that probably won't be done for a very long time. Truly amazing and it's so cool to see their excitement.
I don't believe it. The Punch Out blindfold was crazy enough, but at least with that game you are rooted to the spot and everything is sounds and timing. Sorry for any disrespect, but I don't think I'd be able to believe this without being there in person and inspecting the blindfold etc. Not saying it is fake, but it is just so incredible a youtube video is not enough.
First off, only about an hour and a half for 70 stars? Secondly, 120 stars in under 12 hours? These guys are insane, like my mind were blown twice this video. Also shows just how difficult some of the stars for 120 is compared to 70 stars. Wonder if they'll work on lowering the time on 120. Kudos to you, blindfolded runners, you guys are the true legends!
My Mother finally beating Zelda: A Link to the Past in 2010 after trying since it came out (1992) is the greatest video gamming achievement ever. IMO. Back in like 94 or 95 my friend and I finished her save to see how many times she died.... over 500 on the Ice Palace alone. She was stuck there for years at the time. She was stuck for over 10 years on the Turtle Rock boss, and blew my phone up at like 2am one night ecstatic she finally did it. Then she actually got back into it like she was in the 90s and beat Gannon's Tower and Gannon a year after that. The only games she played outside of that were with me: Burger Time for the Atari, and Super Bomberman. My Mother is the greatest gamer ever.
Awesome video covering Bubzia’s crazy journey towards the 120 star completion! I’m glad to see he is getting the recognition he deserves for all the effort he put in, as well as previous runners through the years. The blindfolded community is one that I hold near and dear to me, so when I see videos covering the topic, I can’t help but to smile. Thank you!
It’s amazing when all the time, effort, and mental fortitude eventually pays off for such an iconic moment. Even a person like me who doesn’t possess all these qualities can appreciate the sheer tenacity and dedication these players have
I love blindfolded runs, I wish there were more documentaries and popularity with them. I’m sure many speedrunning enthusiasts also appreciate this content. Thanks for sharing Karl
I had no idea this was a real category. I just remember Vargskelethor Joel and SimpleFlips doing a blind Mario 64 stream, where one wore the blindfold, and the other gave him instructions.
It's sad that one of the most momentous achievements in speedrunning history is, by most measures, unwatchable. "Do you want to watch someone play Super Mario 64 at the level of an infant? No? What if I told you he played for 11 hours straight?"
Remember those " greatest player of all time" awards they use to give out to guys like Billy Mitchell? Yah, these blindfolded runners should get those. Eat your heart out, Billy.
I loved watching the vod for this, it took me a couple days to watch it, and the idea that he did this all in one shot is crazy. Bubzia is so crazy. I love all his blindfolded runs.
Right? A lot of comments make it pretty evident people can’t even watch the stream in one sitting. (I mean nobody is challenging them to either.) but imagine not just doing it, but live with thousands of viewers. Is fighting Bowser a significant hurdle? Relatively speaking. It seems like it would be but I’m just thinking back. I could barely even catch those damn rabbits with my eyes open. Let alone closed. JFC
I loved what is definetly not a news article edit of Maximizing Muscle Hypertrophy: A Systematic Review of Advanced Resistance Training Techniques and Methods
The amount of time and skill that put on this type of speedrun is absolutely insane, I can't imagine being blind for almost 12 hours playing a game would be possible.
2:50 I mean, some guys like spending time in a lawn with bushes instead of a fully barren lawn. It's important to make sure yards stay maintained, but there's something beautiful about appreciating natural foliage too.
I have a cat named Bubba and sometimes we call him “Bubs” for short, which sounds like the first part of Bubzia. So now whenever I say my cat’s name I think of this legendary achievement.
It's a helluva endurance task for the brain, both to keep any patterns consistant, and keep track of Mario's position mentally rather than visually. It's also incredible to find some folks dedicated in trying to do such rediculous leveled challenges for the sake making overwhelmingly taxing and obscure achievements. This madlad has done the impossible blindfold challenge in SM64, and turned it into a conquered task. Bubzia the madlad beating the challenge is insane. The only word that can define his achievement is a "phenomenal" piece of work. Take your trophy of being the first 120 star blindfolded extraordinaire.
It's been too long since Karl has called me an absolute legend.I've been waiting for this video since his run. This is such an insane achievement, and was even more insane to follow live. Congrats Bubzia! You know you've made it when you get featured in one of Karl's videos.
Another great video. I love how your respect for these achievements is so apparent. Its contagious and has the ability to convince non-gamers that these feats are truly amazing.
I'm honestly baffled that the video of such a huge accomplishment got so little views initially. This is the kind of thing I would've expected to have news articles written about like with the Super Mario Bros. world record from a while back.
Not only is this speedrun mentally fatiguing due to the need of concentration at every second, just imagine what it's like to sit and play a game for hours but you can't see anything. Uncertainty makes me very uncomfortable, as with most other people. Imagine not fully knowing what you're doing at all times, I would go insane. This is not just a test of consistency and concentration, it's a test of mental strength
Was looking forward to this video ever since Bubzia managed this feat. The guy is an absolute legend, thanks for covering this run and the history of blindfolded SM64.
God.. dude just decided to be blind for half a fucking day multiple times and God knows how long in practice. Incredible. I would go insane after like a couple hours most likely less
Dick! I had just wound down for the night and ready to go to bed without looking at another screen. How can I resist this?? I've been awaiting this video for weeks!
Honestly this is about the perfect example of how speedrunning/video games are sport. The mental anguish from a 10 hour run will supersede just about any “regular” sporting contest
First time I've heard of him tbh. As an autistic person myself, I have extra appreciation for the mentally challenged and disabled people doing what an average Joe and Jane might consider impossible. Gotta check more about him, brb!
I am alive!

Thanks for the shoutout at the end, blindfolded runs are fascinating

I like how the blindfolded run still looks 10 times better than me when playing Mario 64.

Ye some people are built DIFFERENT dude
I never knew I would ever see the day a 100% run in Super Mario 64 would be possible I’m mind blown 🤯 fantastic run

"It was just a joke, fam!"

@@davidjsaul or drinking coke
Oh god, collecting the 100 coins for each stage must be so much pain for sure xD
@ I thought the level with all the magic carpets would be.
@ LLL is by far the hardest and when he got it so early on in the final run, we were very optimistic about the run's chances.
Just wearing a blindfold for 8 hours would be terrible.
@@josephwalker1853 the rainbow level is the main reason I never bothered getting 120 stars legit.

Hi I’m first
did not expect to see you here
I laughed out loud at the guy typing "HEY KARL KOBST" in the chat at 17:48. I suspect it was Todd Togers.
It was absolutely Todd "Forever 80's Fashion" Todgers. The legend himself.

Literally about four hours ago I checked this channel because I realized it had been a while since Karl had made a new video.
Thank you, Karl.
He's still recovering from his cheating "scandal" 😉😂
I mean, being blindfolded without having an anxiety attack and staying sit for 12 hours without eating or going to the bathroom is already an impressive feat.
Yeah, I'd consider it ok to get up during certain parts of the game.... in the lobby section or whatever you call it after you have died.
He did eat though! Dude had a big bowl of rice and some energy bars which he would periodically snack on throughout the run.
imagine having an anxiety attack because you blindfolded yourself in your own home and can take it off at any moment. are you six years old?
Absolute madness. I remember how unforgiving Super Mario 64 was when I was a kid, and that was with me being able to see. Not in a million years, would I ever guess that gamers were willing to attempt to play it completely blind! Major props to Bubzia for taking on such an incredible feat! He deserves the fame for all his hard work!! :D
Karl has become one of the only youtubers i watch who gets me excited with an upload
I watched him painstakingly practicing Snowman's Land for hours, this is an absolutely unbelievable achievement

If they are blindfolded, why do they face the tv? I understand they need sound but they could use ear buds. Why even have a tv in the room at all?
I'm sitting here thinking "Wow, that's impressive".
Then I remember the Bowser fight.
Then I remember the bunny.
