I’ve loved covering the community in the two videos I’ve made so far, and hope to make more down the road as these players break the game even more!
I love when you cover mario cart, they are my favorite videos on your channel, even though i don't play the game

im so excited for this video
I'm not going to speedrun watching this video, I'm going to enjoy every minute of it
You better
The video's an absolute masterpiece.
Coward. Not only do I watch every video at 4 times speed, I try to move as fast as possible to abuse time dilation to earn world record on every video I watch. I haven't enjoyed youtube in 8 years

Ok can we just take a moment to appreciate how Salt called the Rainbow Road ultra shortcut the “holy grail”, and Arthur was the one to claim it? That’s perfect wordplay

Pressure can be on even for a TAS'er :)
Me: Please can I have the good chemicals
My brain: No
Summoning Salt: *Plays some cool music for a few seconds after saying the name of a track from Mario Kart Wii*
My brain: Now you may have the good chemicals
LITERALLY one of my favorite details in his videos. the fun music synced up with his pleasingly monotone voice, which rises ONLY to indicate significance, really itches the tism in the middle of my brain.
>eats a bag of Oreos in 3 min
>Gets 20 second record
>"Over time, this method would be improved"
>me thinking the TAS eats two bags of Oreos in 3 min
By using a TAS-only strategy called "Rapid Fire Chewing", we can theoretically bring the record down to sub-3 min. However, as of February 2021, this is not humanly possible.

My favorite thing about Summoning Salt is how he talks like a professor describing historical figures but all the names were made up by teenagers on the internet.
:) yes
"But unbeknownst to all of us, WetFart9000 was about to make history." :D
The Ninja Gaiden video is a great example of this, thanks to a runner by the name of "ShiveringEroticKingBanana", which he delivers with a completely straight face somehow.
And here he completes the ‘diarrhea skip’...
"In April 2017 runner DrippyBunghole made history by being the first person to complete Level 6 with no items"
For those wondering, both DS Peach Gardens and Daisy Circuit have Ultra Shortcuts now. Peach Gardens was broken not long after this video was published, and Daisy Circuit was broken 2-3 weeks ago. I’d recommend checking them out, they’re both insane!
And ds desert hills
finally a Non-screamer daisy circuit ultra
Luigi circuit too
Lol, 2023 has been a crazy year...
now even moonview highway, moo moo meadows, bowser castle and ds yoshi falls!
One of the best parts about mariokart wii is that compared to 8 deluxe, lakitu doesn’t care if you break time and space just as long as you’re aware you’re not going the intended path
I’m convinced Summoning Salt could make a 50 minute narration of his breakfast work.
“But in the span of less than ten minutes, not one, but THREE new condiments were consumed. Welcome... to Triple-Berry Jam City.”

Hi dude
I’m still in the middle of watching this
I believe this is why Funky Kong hasn't made a return to the series, his presence is disasterous to the fabric of reality
He finally noclipped out of bonds from mkwii and respawned in deluxe.
Update: Rainbow Road is now sub-2 minutes with a WR by Justin using the shooting star. Perhaps the last minute barrier in MKWii ever - but you never know.

Salt, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. When I was a kid, my dad and I would play this game every Saturday morning together. Mario Kart is a part of my childhood.

This man Arthur is a GOAT🐐
absolute legend bro
Well, I arrived at this late but I am the Jaden mentioned in the video. Finding the OOB spot was a very surreal experience for me. I almost did not bother sharing my discovery at all, figuring it was already known and debunked, so I am very grateful that I did. If you want to see a piece of MKW history I still have the old rMR theory video up on my channel. I have mostly moved on from theorizing glitches and focus on making custom tracks now, a whole other side of the Mario Kart Wii community I highly recommend checking out. It is insane to think it has been over two years since the original ultra shortcut video (which inspired me to look into rMR in the first place), and how much has happened since then. I can't wait to see what else this community does next!
Cool
Very cool
Super cool
Keep it up!
Nice.
Cool 😎
Petition to force Summoning Salt to make a part three to ultra shortcuts
He might be waiting for every track to have an Ultra Shortcut, and right now there are 7 without one, except if you count small shortcuts the number goes down to 3
"its not a lap count, dont get too excited" that single sentence is so heartbreaking.

This video was great. Growing up I was fortunate enough to have family focused parents, who made "game night" a priority every week/every other week. After we got our wii (which came with MK) we only picked Mario Kart to play for months. We played it so much and made so many memories. It got to the point that my mom and dad would practice together in DUOs on weekends when my sister and I were out with our friends. I used these ultra shortcuts on only a few maps to frequently ensure I would always come out on top. Such good times. Thanks for the video, it brought back a lot of great memories.

"I'm using tilt controls!"

Honestly, I find oreos better without milk. Normal, basic oreos that is. I don't know all the flavors and haven't had a chance to test.

Summoningsalt being so straight-faced in his joke delivery makes things like the Author/Arthur thing so much funnier. Most of the time there aren't jokes, but when delivering one, he really goes for it. Love this channel!
I have never been interested in speedrunning games before, but after watching almost every video that you have, I've been intrigued by it. The quality of your videos is also just astounding.

I love how speedruners when they see "humanly impossible" they basically say "no" and discover an insane way to turn it possible
You only say that because you only pay attention when it actually happens. You don't bother to remember the un countable amount of times someone has said "that's impossible" and it actually was.
Reminder that speedrunners see a TAS and go "Theoratically only machine input possible? Challenge accepted."
@@reio1951 first off all, your comment was unnecessary, it was a joke, and most of the big ones "humanly impossible" were solved, the other impossible ones aren't that big, or they don't make a big difference in players runs, so they don't even try it
@@splashmag7568 ah the classic, "ot was just a joke". Idk why you're so offended lol. Idk where this "most" comes from. Obviously you're gonna see a lot of "impossible things made possible" when you watch a channel like summoning salt who makes videos centred around those kind of events. Also people don't call them impossible unless it is significant. Such as when Mario Oddysey sub 1 hour was impossible. Which it was with the strats at that time.
@@reio1951 i think their point is that loads of speed running tricks now were once considered humanly impossible, not that everything that’s considered impossible has or will be achieved by a human. all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares kinda thing ya know

don’t worry bro i’m full on crying haha i’m just so proud of arthur

Top 10 anime plot twists
This is underrated :)
This is overused :)
it gives me an option to read more but there is nothing more to read confusion
These guys are all geniuses who could be musical virtuosos, but they play Mario kart. And yet... for some reason... I respect them more for it.
15:30 I love how deadpan summoning salt says this. It makes it sound like an important detail when it's really just a wacky funfact
“we can’t go through the wall”
“we can’t go under it”
“we have to go over it!”
"oh no!"
"bonk, bonk, bonk"
(idk what sound wall clipping a rock makes)
"we're going on a timesave hunt, gonna catch a big one"
etc.
This little trick will save us 51 milliseconds.

38:52 "It's still unclear if it'll ever be executed outside of a TAS."
I know, right? That'd never happen. Especially not less than a week after this video came out.
He just got unlucky. It’s the problem with highly edited videos like this and other channels
@@galfinsp7216 still funny
That's fuckin hilarious, actually
Niet zo kkr bijdehand doen
That’s nothing. When the Sonic Adventure Battle 2 video was released, not even 7 hours later the record was defeated.
The last 2 minutes are fantastic. The motion graphics and video quality don't even need to be spectacular, the storytelling and music bring out the emotion and you feel what Arthur feels.

All the stolen comments grab all the likes 🙄

How original :/
It’s the little things, like Salt going out of his way to reference himself in the same video and time stamp it. His subtle humor is always appreciated
I've always loved his recurring joke for older games about a certain method of public transportation.
TFW you see gushing reviews from people on Letterboxd for Jon Bois documentaries, calling out for many more artists to make similar work, calling out for people to talk about videos in a similar style, and you try to tell them about Summoning Salt, but only people they've friended are able to post replies. :(
Jon bois and summoning salt are by far the best of all time. If you haven't heard of him try the Bob emergency its not a bad place to start.
Make PS1 speed run videos. Enough with Nintendo please.
With slightly modified audio, just like the original video he did on Ultras.
Found your docs, and have been binge watching them all. You definitely have a talent for documentary style videos. I’ve never really been into speed running, though I’ve watched a few over the years. However, these videos I found totally intriguing, and interesting. Keep doing what you’re doing. You could do docs on just about anything, and I believe it’d be successful. Great content, and the passion behind these videos definitely shines through. Take care!
Yo dude- grats on a million!! Very well deserved- your channel is amazing. Content is really top notch!!
