What does it take to be the first person ever to get a world record using an exploit everyone thought was humanly impossible?

This.

you're watching the new coolest strategy in mario kart wii tas.

[Ejay B @EjayB4]

Some brief context:
- this is my new Toad's Factory ultra shortcut
- 31 out of 32 tracks in the game now have checkpoint glitches!
- SNES Mario Circuit 3 is the last track to break

A brilliant and high-production documentary by Marth. It's about an often underappreciated aspect of Mario Kart Wii TASing... optimisation!

@xeankekton The previous record was 21.590 by a player called Luke, from July 27th 2023!

I made the video understandable for people who are unfamiliar with the game too, so check it out! Took about 8 months to edit everything (it's my first ever edited video)

@imcloudbusting start till 2:21 is "Shantien Phase 1" and
2:21 till end is "Shantien Phase 4"
Both songs from Monster Hunter Frontier G, by Hideyuki Fukasawa

[Ejay B @EjayB4]

Some brief context:
- the exploit is called supersliding
- supersliding itself had been used only in TAS runs before this
- all the strats in the video (to make supersliding viable for humans) were discovered by me

[Ejay B @EjayB4]

@SuperMarioT_YT the grind was about 1.5-2 hours every day for over month, so closer to 50! the game takes a bit of time to load between restarts

[Ejay B @EjayB4]

@PigMakeBacon At the end of my video on youtube, I showcase a 3lap-viable method (way more difficult, but still possible)

@SweeneyPaddy9 @WestCoastEagles @CarltonFC Melbourne got 74 vs Adelaide in the 2002 SF?

It's been nearly a year and a half since my last upload, but I'm glad to say that something is finally on the horizon - a project that's been in the making for 2 years. Hope you've got enough popcorn to last 25 minutes...

@bolbuljes @brouhaha07 @Chardy53102203 @IncrediblyBozza It's a free kick + 50m if the umpires perform the head count, and the team ends up not having an illegal number of players fielded (so they had 18 in the end). Rule is there to prevent time-wasting.

[Ejay B @EjayB4]

@Aoiro_mkw Yes, but I think it's mostly because people find the character voices annoying

[Ejay B @EjayB4]

@borisjohnsn1964 got charged at while playing football, went to ground with heaps of negative Y speed, and forgot to savestate so couldn't rewind and optimise my fall

[Ejay B @EjayB4]
