"shiryu, never use that secret technique that guarantees victory because you'll die afterwards". Gee weez, thank god I remembered this thing that happened before the anime even started and that the creator totally came up with from the start 200 chapters ago.
Extremely thorough coverage of everything that blindfolded Mike Tyson's Punch Out went through over the years! I'm really glad to have had a chance to contribute to this incredible challenge run!
There are many people who have tried to make speedrun history videos. They are all just pretenders, as good as their videos are Summoning Salt is the best
First of all, it should be noted that Summoningsalt also beat Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! blindfolded and even beat Mike Tyson last year faster than I did that way, but left it out of this video for whatever reason hahaha! What a humble guy :). Anyway, thank you for putting together The History of blindfolded Punch-Out!!, Summoningsalt! It was an honor contributing to your project! I hope that your future videos are just as informative and entertaining, so keep it up and NEVER give up!
@@DTysonator yeah I was hoping to hear about his blind folded accomplishments with the run as I had saw before that he had done such runs. I think he left himself out because he never pushed the record farther than what it was before like you yourself and others. Honestly would love to hear him talk about the runs he has done with punch out and how he got into speedrunning, what games he has run, etc. A summoning salt's speedgame hobby progression of sorts and what led him from running games to making progressions and the end being him saying if he still does runs or if he just makes content now.
For those who don't know, SummoningSalt now has the WR in blindfolded punchout as of two days ago! Crazy congratulations man, we need a video on YOU !!
This channel really represents why I love the internet. You can get a TV quality documentary series about niche subjects a network would never touch; and it's done with a lot more passion and heart than most network shows
The Goosh Well you just said that this is likely stolen, I’m just saying that with a million views the odds of two or more people commenting the same/similar joke is pretty decent.
@@spartansquid5931 Look, this is TH-cam comments. There's no such thing as independent invention. Only the original and copies inhabited this realm. If it's the same joke as another comment, there is basically a 100% chance it was intentionally stolen.
This'll probably get buried considering how old this vid is, but I just want to point out that, as of this writing, Summoning Salt has the WR for MTPO!! single-segment as of early August. Congrats on such great work, and congrats on holding the record for so long! That you hardly mention yourself shows the humility that a true expert in a field has. Bravo, sir. Much respect.
As someone who subscribed to Nintendo Power in the 80's, I can tell ya that people were doing it back then! I remember a letter that made it into the "Editor's Picks" or whatever it was called, saying that they had beaten the first 6 fighters blindfolded.
I love speedrunning. It proggresses from "OMG this guy just beat half the game" To "he beat almost everything but Tyson is impossible tho" To "oh yeah this one guy manages to beat Tyson blindfolded consistantly but cmon its not like anybody else is going to" To "ya so we are doing LIVE races now about who can beat the entire game blindfolded"
Summoning Salt once again gets me to watch a video on a topic I previously had no interest in. The presentation of these is simply amazing! Everything always seems to come perfectly together, and you also seem to have an extra passion for Punch-Out, I'd assume due to your WR history with the game. The seldom times I see Summoning Salt in my sub box lead to a great thirty minutes. You've earned a break, man. I, on the other hand, shall avoid resting for forty more minutes.
Man, you manage to turn obscure and pretty much unknown game records into awe inspiring videos of elite players in the games community. Thank you, for the research and effort you put into these.
Fun fact: The human reaction speed to sound is faster than sight. With enough good sound cues in the game, it's actually easier to react when you're focusing on sounds. I'm sure that helps a lil bit. People have ran tests with fighting game reactions to hearing characters do certain things, and noticing a slightly better reaction when specifically listening for the sound cues. It's interesting stuff.
That's fascinating to hear! When fishing in animal crossing, I've started just closing my eyes and listening to the sound cue, otherwise I either lose the fish or my fingers get too twitchy and I reel too early.
TH-cam is pushing these cringey "TH-cam originals" but what really makes TH-cam special are these "underground" videos, videos that allow us to be intrigued by a topic we have never heard about. I wish TH-cam supported these creators as much as The paul brothers, Casey Neistat, or anything Kpop related.
Imagine staring at a title screen, putting on a blindfold, start pressing random buttons, and an hour later you take the blindfold off and you beat the game. Edit: The amount of people in the replies who dont get that this is a joke...
Hey Summoning Salt. I've been watching your videos for over a year now, and I CANNOT express to ANYONE how good your videos are! It blows me away how much work you put into your work. You will go down in history as one of the most respected person in speedrunning community, and as one of my, if not favorite, TH-camrs of all time.
I love watching this way late. "When one of the greatest Mike Tyson's punchout players of all time..." said by the guy holding the world record for beating him the fastest. You can feel the respect for the other players and their commitment in any game you cover. Your channel is awesome and you do great worn.
@@TaddyMason74 Easily my favorite song...No question. Perfectly matches my taste in music and has such a feeling of triumph (Mainly because of its usage in SummoningSalt's Choco Mountain video) I absolutely adore it
The best song Summoning Salt uses is the theme from the Beach level of Plok. It's absolutely insane than a stock SNES can make music that sounds that good. Until I looked it up, I thought Salt was using an actual electronic track from the last few years. But nope, early 90s chip tune at its finest.
I am in no way whatsoever into the world of speedrunning, so I'm not sure how I stumbled upon this channel, but I'm glad I did. Amazing videos, and absolutely fascinating storytelling. I've been bringe watching all your videos and I cant wait for more episodes! Brilliant job, well done.
@@elenaphisher244 I have never been bothered about speedrunning, and never thought I would be, but I recently discovered this channel and have binged almost every video now. So, no, you're wrong; people do discover this. Stop trying to put other people down to draw attention to yourself and boost your own self esteem in doing so, it's rude.
38:00 “And then, in 2018, one of the top players wanted to see what he could do with a blindfold.. MPap.” NGL, was honestly expecting your formal announcement to run it, Salt.
If anyone is interested, Mr. Salt is the holder of 3 world records for Mike Tyson’s Punchout on speedrun.com and then the world record holder for the Mike Tyson fight, in fact, if you watch his first world record progression video, he talks about himself being the world record holder
Punch Out is a fantastic game to play when you don’t have site. I am totally blind and have been since birth and it is probably one of the only Nintendo games I’m really good at. I know there was no video proof of me doing this because it was the late 90s, but in 1999 when I was 15, I actually manage to get up to Mr Sandman. I didn’t do it very quickly but I did manage it after practising for months. So I can totally understand how with the right amount of practice and strategies, the game could be beaten without having to look at the screen.
Using screen reading software and that comes standard with the iPhone called voice-over that tells me everything on the screen and what I’m typing. I have a similar thing on my computer.
I've heard there are quite a few fighting games that are working towards having in depth enough sound ques to play them blind. Something to check out. Also sorry if my spelling fucks with the auto readout software
Since this is 5 years old I went to the leaderboard to see where the record is now. I knew this is Summoning Salt's game but I did not expect him to be the current record holder of pretty much every category, including blindfolded.
@@skinnybuggo FUCK you beat me to it, well I might as well finish what you started. 250,000 subscribers and still growing the fact that we reached this number in such a short amount of time is just phenomenal i-im just amazed, thank you all so much for supporting this channel and helping it grow I-I love you guys, you guys are just awesome. so as you can probably tell this isnt really a montage parody, this is really more like a kind thank you / update video so in this video im quickly gonna go over two things: firstly advertisements, and more importantly : the future of this channel and what kind of direction its headed. okay so firstly, the advertisements. believe it or not but montage parodies are actually a copy right minefield new content is getting claimed every day. we could use something from.. lets say.. 5 years ago, and tommorow a huge company could come along and claim that video as theres and we have no control over that. and any video we use that product in could either get copy right stiked or lose monetizeation, meaning that all the money made from that video would get sent to the company, and not us. the only real way to counter this is to get advertisements placed on my channel, i mean its a win-win for everyone involved you know i get a safety net generated for myself and the company gets exposure and you guys, my sub subcribers, sit through a two second ad that will be as short and painless as possible, so next im gonna talk about the future of this channel, this doesnt mean in anyway that im actually quitting montage parodies, its basically why you subscribed to my channel and i enjoy making them and theres no reason to quit because im in full time education i have less time to make and upload videos it use to be weekly uploads and now its pretty much once a month but in my opinion uploading once a month isnt enough id like to upload more than that, i mean, as much as possible but montage parodies take a long time to make, collecting the resources, coming up with an original idea ya know, all this stuff takes time and planning and that combined with me being in education means that they take a while to make, a good video that goes into detail about this is rubber rosses video "future of independant animation on youtube" it is a different theme'd video because I dont do independant animation, but you can still kind of relate because uploads become more infrequent; channel traffic slows down this is why i want to make videos that are related to montage parodies, but arent exactly meta montage parodies, like I said before: im not quitting montage parodies, its basically seen as either you wait for me to upload one video a month or i upload one video a month with a bunch of you know, funny gameplay stuff in between. A great example of this would be counter strike global offensive but at the end of the day, its all down to you guys, you guys are my subscribers and id love to hear your feed back on what youd like me to do next, leave a comment below: your thoughts and ideas. Im gonna try to respond to as many comments as I can to this video. I would love to hear your feedback on what kind of videos youd want to see, any future ideas for the channel. I feel that because your subscribed to an extent, you're inclined to, you know, share your thoughts and ideas, and have a say on what i should do next, and its really appeciated guys. and lastly i want to thank you guys, thank you guys for helping this channel grow so quickly, in such a short amount of time I mean I started doing videos like these just over a year ago and i would have never expected my channel to grow so quickly in such a short amount of time just from montage parodies its amazing, you know ive been reading the comments and some of them have just been genuinly amazing ive been told people have depression and they find these videos you know therapeutic and have enjoyed them, and lifted their spirits and stuff and its just amazing how my videos can do that to people and that really motivates me to do more of these videos, and just thank you all so much for giving me this opportunity, it really-it really means a lot guys you have no idea, and lastly i want to give a shout out to all the people who helped make this video whether thats voice overs, animations, stuff like that. firstly we got Harvey Rothman he designed my youtube profile picture, and has also designed a what the fast intro for my channel, and its just amazing. i love his animation style he is just a really nice guy to talk to, be sure to subscribe to his channel, hes got an upcoming animation for five nights at freddys "foxy gets hooked", he does music production, hes all around a really good guy, next we got Hitlerspimp hes just so talent with SFM, he designed the intro for me, its unbelivable how talented he his, be sure to check out his videos, hes just amazing. and lastly check out creamforce for his sexy voice over he did in the video honestly he does a lot of montage parody esc videos, definintely check him out his videos are just amazing and he just has a great personality all around. and thats it guys thats all i wanted to explain, thank you all for sitting through this video and taking all the information in, dont forget to comment down below your thoughts and feelings, id love to hear your feelings on where to take this channel montage parodies are still coming, ive got at least 2 videos in the works right now and will be up very soon. thank you all again for a quarter of a million subscribers im just still amazed that we reached this number in just a short amount of time, thanks guys.
Dude, incredible. Such a lovely video and I learned so much!! You do amazing work, so proud of how far you've come, from 9 subs to almost half a million!
@@SummoningSalt The fact that you don't even have 1 million subs yet is an absolute crime, every time I get a notification for a new video from you, I am automatically glued to my seat without a single worry for anything else around me for a solid 45 minutes, and for that I am eternally grateful. Long live Summoning Salt.
It was kind of a giveaway when the video said: "The one they're using for this fight comes from a -- uhhh -- Tyson runner named 'Summoning Salt.'" 36:45 lol
man, I was not expecting A&C games to show up, I used to go to school around where the old location was and it's wild to think that, on top of already being the coolest place ever in my mind, speedrunning history was being made there as well. nostalgia aside, amazing video as always, job well done dude
After watching Sinister1 and Zallard1 run 2p1c blindfolded MTPO at AGDQ2020 and seeing those two get a 15 minute PB in the category, I have decided MTPO runners become gods under pressure. And this fantastic video gives so much context why what they did was so impressive. Have you ever considered doing a history of speedrunning video on a person? Like AndrewG's speedrunning history?
Great video, but I was expecting that at the end, SS was going to say: "... and that was the World Record, until I came and beat the record by 1 minute..." XD
@Manek Iridius That's a really strange conclusion to draw. Doom runners don't use it because they have an objectively better way of verifying speedruns in the form of demos. Something that a large majority of games do not have. For the rest, the best way to verify authentic speedruns is video, something speedrun.com DOES support.
Please never change the intro music, idk man it just adds to the nostalgia. I never comment but I watch a lot and the level of detail you go through is insane. I love the episodes where you think it’s over and there’s a twist.
Summoning Salt is one of the best content creator on the platform. He shows the passion and heart from under-ground communities in depth while not skipping out on details. He is incredibly humble and through his videos you can tell he has the upmost respect for these communities. It's not every day that you see a content creator make a 40 minute video on a sub category for a game that is decades old. I was so glad when he made a Mario Kart WII video, as I knew the only big content creator that could do it justice was Summoning Salt. Thank you so much for enlightening me and everyone else on these communities... I guess what I'm saying is that you don't use shock as your main form of entertainment in your videos, it's sympathy; it's like watching a movie where you can relate to the main character. You show us the progression and illustrate what the communities / people felt during certain time frames in said game's development, the triumphs the players overcome, the tech discovery etc.. It's the type of feeling that gets you teary-eyed and get goosebumps. That's the feeling I wish was more encapsulated on TH-cam.
I fell asleep watching this, not because it’s boring, because his voice is so soothing. Love the videos so much and I’m always looking forward to them!
Yo, Summoning Salt is actually the world record holder for this game without blindfold on. I feel like that could have come up at some point during the video, but I guess being ultra humble is cool too.
And now he's the record holder WITH the blindfold on! Last week he annihilated the record by more than 2 minutes: 18mins 03secs! Hands down to the greatest! 😁
@it’s robin! Hey, Robin! Doing better. My friend group disintegrated during the pandemic and I'm just now rebuilding that. But I've had a bunch hugs from girlfriend and parents since. Biggest thing is that to combat the depression I fell into, I started walking 3 miles a day in the sun, and working out. Gained 40 pounds of muscle and feel happier and healthier now all the time. Just gotta get some IRL friends now.
I cannot describe how amazing your videos are. I get these comments are pretty common but you genuinely bring a smile to my face whenever I see you channel has an upload. I hope you continue your craft and have immense success in the future. Cheers!
as of early january 2024, summoningsalt holds the WR for 6/7 mtpo categories, including the blindfolded run, and he is significantly farther ahead than those under his records
What about a video on the history of *speedrunning?* What game was speedrun first? How did the community grow? When did charity speedrunning events start? (Was GDQ the first? Have others spawned?) Love the videos!
It was a year and 8 days ago when I saw this, a masterfully crafted feature length film about a video game I’ve never even seen in real life, a game I had never really cared too much about, and yet Summoning Salt, on a deep, instinctive level that he had developed for years and year about something he holds so dearly to his heart, has kept making these pieces of art for us. It’s bewildering how amazing of a man he is... And yet the best part I find of this is how DTysonator says “Pastalaviesta, Mikey.”
I really do like playing Little Mac because of how fast he is, but I'm not a good player and his air game already weak. I might as well be blind folded because I'm taking more Ls than Tyson after losing his title
As a lot of older comments point out, SummoningSalt holds the record for a lot of Punch out catacories. as of four months ago, he holds all world records besides high-score
Watching GDQ runs of my favourite games: I sleep Listening to Summoning Salt talk for 40 minutes about a category I've never heard of before: *REAL SHIT*
I just looked up leaderboards, I can't believe you hold 6 out of 6 WR in EVERY category. You're madman, I don't know what is better, your skill or your beautiful editing and storytelling
Damn if you don't make some of the best documentaries on youtube, please point me to who does, because I highly doubt anyone can make me as emotionally invested in a history lesson as Summoning Salt. Beautiful work, Salt. Keep it up.
That "ignoring the part of your notes saying to never go for a 9 count recovery" is straight up anime
Wow you're so fucking right haha.
Real life is anime

Also, how subtle he is with the GDQ shout out at 36:40

First of all, it should be noted that Summoningsalt also beat Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! blindfolded and even beat Mike Tyson last year faster than I did that way, but left it out of this video for whatever reason hahaha! What a humble guy :).

I wish TH-cam supported these creators as much as The paul brothers, Casey Neistat, or anything Kpop related.
Imagine staring at a title screen, putting on a blindfold, start pressing random buttons, and an hour later you take the blindfold off and you beat the game.
Edit: The amount of people in the replies who dont get that this is a joke...
*puts it on my resume*
So imagine blackness for a half of an hour then the end screen?
Ight ima head out
@Manek Iridius imagine*
then make a youtube video about the history of it while leaving out himself
Love how now we are referring to normal runs as “non-blindfolded” runs
Hard to believe that only 2 years ago you only had 9 subscribers.
2016 was 3 years ago.

Hey Summoning Salt. I've been watching your videos for over a year now, and I CANNOT express to ANYONE how good your videos are! It blows me away how much work you put into your work. You will go down in history as one of the most respected person in speedrunning community, and as one of my, if not favorite, TH-camrs of all time.
I love watching this way late. "When one of the greatest Mike Tyson's punchout players of all time..." said by the guy holding the world record for beating him the fastest. You can feel the respect for the other players and their commitment in any game you cover. Your channel is awesome and you do great worn.
WHEN THAT FIRST VAPORWAVE NOTE HITS A WAVE OF EXCITEMENT WASHES OVER ME 😩
We're Finally Landing by Home
Added it to a playlist a few weeks ago when I was in need of new SummoningSalt
every time i rewatch that mario kart choco mountain vid i cry when i hear it HAHA
@@TaddyMason74 Easily my favorite song...No question. Perfectly matches my taste in music and has such a feeling of triumph (Mainly because of its usage in SummoningSalt's Choco Mountain video) I absolutely adore it
The best song Summoning Salt uses is the theme from the Beach level of Plok. It's absolutely insane than a stock SNES can make music that sounds that good. Until I looked it up, I thought Salt was using an actual electronic track from the last few years. But nope, early 90s chip tune at its finest.
@@duffman18 That's a close second for me, can't deny how good that sounds
I am in no way whatsoever into the world of speedrunning, so I'm not sure how I stumbled upon this channel, but I'm glad I did. Amazing videos, and absolutely fascinating storytelling. I've been bringe watching all your videos and I cant wait for more episodes! Brilliant job, well done.
@Rented shut up
NotAPolarBear it is pure cringe. No one who isn’t interested in speedrunning binges these videos. It’s such a typical sucking up comment.
@@elenaphisher244 I have never been bothered about speedrunning, and never thought I would be, but I recently discovered this channel and have binged almost every video now. So, no, you're wrong; people do discover this. Stop trying to put other people down to draw attention to yourself and boost your own self esteem in doing so, it's rude.
@@aspden8809 LOL, yea i agree.
Me too, that seems to be the point of the channel. To show new people the history that we have missed out on.
38:00 “And then, in 2018, one of the top players wanted to see what he could do with a blindfold.. MPap.” NGL, was honestly expecting your formal announcement to run it, Salt.
AXSR388 same lol
Yeah, I was also expecting him to name himself, lol.
I deadass started wheezing at “hasta la vista Mikey, your done.. BITCH-”
Time stamp?
@@ShribbleDum 29:20 is the time stamp! this is late but I hope I helped
What a fucking legend 😂
Your videos are so high quality that it feels like a special occasion every time a new one comes out
*Lemino*
36:40 Best humble brag ever
9 subs, now you're just shy of 500,000
Keep up the great work salt 👍
haha nice, I missed that on the first watch.
I thoat that was a diffrent yt-ber
If anyone is interested, Mr. Salt is the holder of 3 world records for Mike Tyson’s Punchout on speedrun.com and then the world record holder for the Mike Tyson fight, in fact, if you watch his first world record progression video, he talks about himself being the world record holder
3k now to 850k
So stoked to watch this.
39:47 the 18m 37s time was done my none other than the salt summoner himself, and he never even said anything about it. What a cool guy

Yes! New SummoningSalt video!
Always love how summoning salt gives casual nods to himself without being bigheaded
Ikr
Punch Out is a fantastic game to play when you don’t have site. I am totally blind and have been since birth and it is probably one of the only Nintendo games I’m really good at. I know there was no video proof of me doing this because it was the late 90s, but in 1999 when I was 15, I actually manage to get up to Mr Sandman. I didn’t do it very quickly but I did manage it after practising for months. So I can totally understand how with the right amount of practice and strategies, the game could be beaten without having to look at the screen.
How tf you typing this blind
Using screen reading software and that comes standard with the iPhone called voice-over that tells me everything on the screen and what I’m typing. I have a similar thing on my computer.
That’s a very inspiring story, my man. :3
I've heard there are quite a few fighting games that are working towards having in depth enough sound ques to play them blind. Something to check out. Also sorry if my spelling fucks with the auto readout software
Becky C. yes ive played that game a lot without looking, pretty easy
Since this is 5 years old I went to the leaderboard to see where the record is now. I knew this is Summoning Salt's game but I did not expect him to be the current record holder of pretty much every category, including blindfolded.
I love how mild DTysonator's popoff is. He's just like "guys we did it. :)"
We reached 250000 succscriBers
Have you ever been so happy that you can't even express your joy, so you just stay calm?
Argentum 9 I just scream tbh
Terminated. Hasta la vista, mikey.
@@skinnybuggo FUCK you beat me to it, well I might as well finish what you started.
250,000 subscribers and still growing
the fact that we reached this number in such a short amount of time is just phenomenal i-im just amazed, thank you all so much
for supporting this channel and helping it grow I-I love you guys, you guys are just awesome.
so as you can probably tell this isnt really a montage parody, this is really more like a kind thank you / update video
so in this video im quickly gonna go over two things: firstly advertisements, and more importantly : the future of this channel
and what kind of direction its headed.
okay so firstly, the advertisements. believe it or not but montage parodies are actually a copy right minefield
new content is getting claimed every day. we could use something from.. lets say.. 5 years ago, and tommorow a huge company could come along
and claim that video as theres and we have no control over that. and any video we use that product in could either get
copy right stiked or lose monetizeation, meaning that all the money made from that video would get sent to the company, and not
us. the only real way to counter this is to get advertisements placed on my channel, i mean its a win-win for everyone involved
you know i get a safety net generated for myself and the company gets exposure and you guys, my sub subcribers, sit through a two
second ad that will be as short and painless as possible, so next im gonna talk about the future of this channel, this doesnt mean in anyway that im actually quitting montage parodies, its basically why you subscribed to my channel and i enjoy making them and
theres no reason to quit because im in full time education i have less time to make and upload videos it use to be weekly uploads
and now its pretty much once a month but in my opinion uploading once a month isnt enough id like to upload more than that, i mean, as much as possible
but montage parodies take a long time to make, collecting the resources, coming up with an original idea ya know, all this stuff takes
time and planning and that combined with me being in education means that they take a while to make, a good video that goes into
detail about this is rubber rosses video "future of independant animation on youtube" it is a different theme'd video because I
dont do independant animation, but you can still kind of relate because uploads become more infrequent; channel traffic slows down
this is why i want to make videos that are related to montage parodies, but arent exactly meta montage parodies, like I said before:
im not quitting montage parodies, its basically seen as either you wait for me to upload one video a month or i upload one video a month with a bunch of you know, funny gameplay stuff in between. A great example of this would be counter strike global offensive
but at the end of the day, its all down to you guys, you guys are my subscribers and id love to hear your feed back on what youd like me to do next,
leave a comment below: your thoughts and ideas. Im gonna try to respond to as many comments as I can to this video. I would love to
hear your feedback on what kind of videos youd want to see, any future ideas for the channel. I feel that because your subscribed
to an extent, you're inclined to, you know, share your thoughts and ideas, and have a say on what i should do next, and its really
appeciated guys. and lastly i want to thank you guys, thank you guys for helping this channel grow so quickly, in such a short amount of time
I mean I started doing videos like these just over a year ago and i would have never expected my channel to grow so quickly in such a short amount of time
just from montage parodies its amazing, you know ive been reading the comments and some of them have just been genuinly amazing
ive been told people have depression and they find these videos you know therapeutic and have enjoyed them, and lifted their spirits
and stuff and its just amazing how my videos can do that to people and that really motivates me to do more of these videos, and just thank you all so much
for giving me this opportunity, it really-it really means a lot guys you have no idea, and lastly i want to give a shout out
to all the people who helped make this video whether thats voice overs, animations, stuff like that. firstly we got Harvey Rothman
he designed my youtube profile picture, and has also designed a what the fast intro for my channel, and its just amazing. i love his animation style he is just a really nice guy to talk to, be sure to subscribe to his channel, hes got an upcoming animation
for five nights at freddys "foxy gets hooked", he does music production, hes all around a really good guy, next we got Hitlerspimp
hes just so talent with SFM, he designed the intro for me, its unbelivable how talented he his, be sure to check out his videos, hes just
amazing. and lastly check out creamforce for his sexy voice over he did in the video honestly he does a lot of montage parody esc videos, definintely check him out
his videos are just amazing and he just has a great personality all around. and thats it guys thats all i wanted to explain, thank you all for sitting through this video
and taking all the information in, dont forget to comment down below your thoughts and feelings, id love to hear your feelings on where to take this channel montage parodies are still coming, ive got at least 2 videos in the works right now and will be up very soon. thank you all again for a quarter of a million subscribers im just still amazed that we reached this number in just a short amount of time, thanks guys.
Dude, incredible. Such a lovely video and I learned so much!! You do amazing work, so proud of how far you've come, from 9 subs to almost half a million!

@@SummoningSalt The fact that you don't even have 1 million subs yet is an absolute crime, every time I get a notification for a new video from you, I am automatically glued to my seat without a single worry for anything else around me for a solid 45 minutes, and for that I am eternally grateful. Long live Summoning Salt.

HELL YEAH NEW SUMMOMING SALT
My favorite sentence
me at 1 am last night
After watching Sinister1 and Zallard1 run 2p1c blindfolded MTPO at AGDQ2020 and seeing those two get a 15 minute PB in the category, I have decided MTPO runners become gods under pressure. And this fantastic video gives so much context why what they did was so impressive.
Have you ever considered doing a history of speedrunning video on a person? Like AndrewG's speedrunning history?
@teknomogul ZALLARD! ZALLARD! ZALLARD!
Yeah, I'd watch one on a few specific ones. zallard1/sinister1/carcinogen
I'VE BEEN SUMMONED, SALT

Can we quickly mention the fact that summoning is by far the best punch out player in the world for a sec, ok done
Hank Glidden how do u kno
@@Flowerz__ Go to speedrun.com look at the records
Well, considering the time it took to beat Wii Punch Out blindfolded for Zallard last SGDQ, I'd like to say you might be wrong.
You forgot the question mark.
@Manek Iridius That's a really strange conclusion to draw. Doom runners don't use it because they have an objectively better way of verifying speedruns in the form of demos. Something that a large majority of games do not have. For the rest, the best way to verify authentic speedruns is video, something speedrun.com DOES support.
Please never change the intro music, idk man it just adds to the nostalgia. I never comment but I watch a lot and the level of detail you go through is insane. I love the episodes where you think it’s over and there’s a twist.
Summoning Salt is one of the best content creator on the platform. He shows the passion and heart from under-ground communities in depth while not skipping out on details. He is incredibly humble and through his videos you can tell he has the upmost respect for these communities. It's not every day that you see a content creator make a 40 minute video on a sub category for a game that is decades old. I was so glad when he made a Mario Kart WII video, as I knew the only big content creator that could do it justice was Summoning Salt. Thank you so much for enlightening me and everyone else on these communities... I guess what I'm saying is that you don't use shock as your main form of entertainment in your videos, it's sympathy; it's like watching a movie where you can relate to the main character. You show us the progression and illustrate what the communities / people felt during certain time frames in said game's development, the triumphs the players overcome, the tech discovery etc.. It's the type of feeling that gets you teary-eyed and get goosebumps. That's the feeling I wish was more encapsulated on TH-cam.
I'm gonna use these strategies to help me beat Mike Tyson with my eyes open
Wait... Which Mike Tyson? The real one or the game? Op...? OP?!?!

Finally! It’s Annual summoning salt uploading day!
I DONT CARE what you upload. I AM WATCHING IT.
It was a year and 8 days ago when I saw this, a masterfully crafted feature length film about a video game I’ve never even seen in real life, a game I had never really cared too much about, and yet Summoning Salt, on a deep, instinctive level that he had developed for years and year about something he holds so dearly to his heart, has kept making these pieces of art for us. It’s bewildering how amazing of a man he is...
And yet the best part I find of this is how DTysonator says “Pastalaviesta, Mikey.”
"I love Thummoning Thalt! He's my favorithe!" - Mike Tyson
Sealab Tucker haaha

As soon as I read "- Mike Tyson" my brain instantly translated my confused reading of your quote to pure perfection. Thank you.

you say that as if it's not optimal
lmaoo
I really do like playing Little Mac because of how fast he is, but I'm not a good player and his air game already weak. I might as well be blind folded because I'm taking more Ls than Tyson after losing his title
So do Ike mains cos all they do is counter and up b. Edit they do do something else: annoy me.
