This video was in production hell for 3 months. So many things went wrong and I had to do a lot of re-edits. I pulled through and I really hope I can distract you from whatever's going on in your life even if it's only for 40 minutes. My goal with this video is to share how magical it felt being part of these events over the last 9 years. Thank you for taking time out of your day to watch my videos. I know I can't consistently release bangers like the Funnygame video but I sure as hell tried with this one.
Its insane to see the giant growth of the skill of players in this game over the years. It is so satisfying to beat one of these old impossible levels. Honestly amazing.
This video literally felt like when a core character in a movie/book tells a story that you can perfectly visualize. Super high quality video, bravo. :)
How didn't this get a spot in the best video awards for 2022, as always amazing documentaries, I know I'm late but u literally killed with ur story telling bro, keep it up!
really fond of the music choices, going from Ib to Dark Souls, very good choices :p this video is very well-crafted, although i wouldve liked you mention more about The Hell Series given that was the first known series to be verified using exploits or cheats but all good outside of that, very well done video
The first word I said when finishing this video was “wow”. I can’t believe how much of a game that I started playing when I was 7 (2015), I did not know of. This video was an experience and should definitely get its place in the UA-cam Hall of Fame. On the the best videos of all time. This 47 minutes and 37 seconds of my life were the most beautiful moments of my life. Thank you for this masterpiece.
These videos are so so good, reminded me of Wirtual's videos that are both perfect for viewers who have played the game and viewers who have not. Also, cheeky cheeky with that "Then Cyclic got this run" quote
The interesting thing about the "human limit" in things like games and sports is that every time we think we have found one, someone comes along and manages to surpass it. And then a whole bunch of others manage to pass the old limits after realizing there is a new height to attain. The only limits are those we place upon ourselves.
Coming back to this video after Paqoe verified Silent Clubstep. I still have no words to describe how crazy of an achievement that was. An end of an era. I think it's pretty obvious that its is gonna be placed at #1. But after watching this video again it made me think of what Riot said in the video.. Personally, I don't think Silent Clubstep is gonna stay at that spot forever. As long as players continually strive to push the skill ceiling in this game, I dont think we'll ever run out of new top 1s. Which I think is just awesome.
@@TheSpartacusTV it was #1 for the time, but since SpaceUK was such an influence on the community and he knew nothing about the difficulty he got it placed at #3 when it first was placed. That guy stole so much from the community
@@nilswilhein2958it’s still the official version. It was nerfed by the creator (TheRealSailent) to be possible, but yes you are correct, the unnerfed version is still impossible
Just started subbing this in French, only to show it to a friend of mine. So much effort was put into this video, I can't state it enough. both the intro and the conclusion always gets me. I've been around since, maybe late 2015 (well when I got my first phone), though I didn't take part in the community before maybe around 2016/2017, but I for sure remember all those levels like it was yesterday. Being a part of GD's community is such a surprisingly fun experience, something you wouldn't expect from what first was a 2€ mobile game by a savage developer. Started playing bloodbath again after 2 years of inactivity, this video sure pumped me up to finish it. (btw, I hate etzer's part. as expected lol)
You are literally the best GD content creator right now, I think this kind of approach to GD videos that make the video as accessible as possible to people who know nothing about the game is what is going to take this game into the mainstream. I eagerly await your nine circles video, or whatever video is next, PLEASE JUST MORE VIDEOS!
i just wanna say at 8:01 the two voices going from ear to ear is an insanely nice touch and proves you really care about the quality of ur vids, ez sub
sandstorm is just insane; not only he is the best brawlhalla player, but he even was one of the best in gd. Every game he touches he is skilled no matter what Also 100 likes lets go
Amazing video. Hope to see more from you in the future. Instantly subscribed even though I never was a part of the GD community and probably never will be. This video was so captivating. A true work of art.
I REALLY loved your video!! even thougt i had no idea of geometry dash :) Your Quality is insane! But i have one little thing that bothers me. I like to watch long videos but when im on my starting page and i see a video that looks cool (like yours) i normally instantly click it, but when i see the video is very long i think about it again and decide if i really wanna watch it. - If your videos were like 15 or 20 minutes you would probably get more klicks because people like me woudn't reconsider watching it. I hope you can do something with my criticism, but to be clear. Its NO hate, i really loved your video, but maybe you it helps you for future content.
THANK YOU!!! I'm getting a lot of feedback like this but its hard to condense 9 years of history into something shorter than 35 minutes... sometimes I just won't be able to escape making a huge video. But I won't always make huge videos :) I have a bunch of cool stuff planned!
@@Samifying i think you could try making two part videos. especially if you frame the titles and videos in such a way that they both stand on their own fine. I've been "tricked" into watching really good long videos that I thoroughly enjoyed afterwards because the first part was small enough but then i was hooked. but tricked in a good way!
there DEFINITELY will never be a roadblock for difficulty in this game. after they're done with cramming insane precision in short sections, i think shortly we'll see top 1s with 3+ minute gameplay, cant way to see that
Exactly people have proven that they can do 20+ 360 frame prefects In a row so the theoretical human limit could be far beyond what it was s today with 7-10 mins levels consisting of frame perfect fast paced gameplay
What I find really cool is sandstorm being talked about in the GD community as he’s mostly known today as Brawlhallas world champion. Which shows how talented he is. Also amazing video quality!
Late 1.9 here, ended up quiting ~ 2.5 years ago, shortly after reaching my goal of beating WL. Dont even know why this was recommended to me but damn nostalgia hit hard.
20:06 I cannot describe the amount of nostalgia I felt when you reminded me of the GO-spam. My heart fluttered and a smile broke across my entire face. I love this game..
This video brought me so much nostalgia, especially the part about cataclysm and bloodbath, because i was there when it happened and it was so incredible at the time. It's crazy to think how much the community progressed in these years. Thanks you so much
40:00 "Maybe, just maybe, that's when we'll finally hit the infamous skill ceiling we have been fear mongering about for 9 years now" As of now, 2 years after this video was made, Silent Clubstep has not only been beaten, but it's not even in the top 3 in the demon list anymore.... I am starting to believe the skill ceiling is more of an infinite void at this point.... PS: What an amazing video. The editing, script writing and narration are all so good and on point.
Woke up at 5 am, watched this video, and will go back to sleep feeling magical Your editing is amazing, and the humor inside the video is hilarious and veteran gd players can see why I just hope that behind the screen, you are doing fine and aren't pushing your body to the limit, even if it takes 2 weeks to 2 months for it to come out, we will all enjoy your masterpieces in one way or another
This video is a treasure trove of info about the early community. Because I started in 2020 (2019 if Subzero counts), I never experienced 1.9 or what people are referring to as "The Golden Age". I wish I had bothered to play the game, but I never did because I was playing the original Flappy Bird and being hyped for Super Mario Maker. (Fun Fact, I actually held the world record for hardest level in Mario Maker back in 2016, but then It got beaten 4 weeks after mine was confirmed. I now want to make the hardest level in GD to see how long I can hold the record.) Thank you for making this video.
I gotta tell you… I’ve been practicing Sedulous for my next hardest… And I just gotta say… THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR PUTTING PLACES FOR START POSs TO BE AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR THEM It’s just really helpful and I wanted to just say thanks! :) Hopefully I can beat it without too much difficulty
This is easily one of the best GD videos I've seen recently, I absolutely love how clean everything is and how it manages to stay engaging over the whole 40 minutes. Yet again another masterpiece, thank you sami.
Dude this video is amazing, that's by far the best video I've watching about a GD topic. From the crazy editing to the amazing eye-catching effects... It's so clear how much hard work you put into making this masterpiece of a video. You inspired me to start my own project now! Keep creating
thank you for this masterpiece no friend of mine has ever touched this game seeing that someone lived the same things as i did alone back in 2015 is really cool makes me fell like i'm part of something that i didn't even know it existed thank you for showing this to the world **the nine circles gag hade me crying
by FAR the best video made about GD I've ever seen, this production level is absolutely crazy, you'd struggle to find a team of editors hit a level like this.
What an unbelievable documentary. It may not be everybody's favorite, but the history and lore of gd is so interesting and fun to watch. Reminds me of SEA
The “tone” of your writing/animation is so so good and I love it! I think that’s what makes your videos amazing; you have perfect awareness of your tone as a writer.
I should also mention you have a great “theory of mind,” or an ability to empathize with what it would feel like to not know a topic. This sounds obvious, but I’ve seen a lot of other creators leave out crucial details in explaining the games they like or generally just focus on the wrong things, and so I imagine it takes a lot of thought, which you clearly put in.
What an astonishingly interesting and appealing video! I myself started playing in 2015 so I didn't know about the impossible levels and this has really opened my eyes on the early days of GD. Amazing work!!!!!
I just watched a movie, dude. Absolutely beautiful video. Huge props. I've been in this community for so long, you almost brought a tear to my eye several times making me remember things
I never even heard of the game, yet you succeeded in keeping me hooked for the whole documentary and communicating the absolute epic, heroic drama of its history and dragon slayers. Dropping off the gamer chair 13:30 reminded me of Champollion...
Your video has so much feel in it and I felt like crying sometimes for some unknown reason and the edits are god mode a step ahead of burr! Also fantastic story and everything, AWW I JUST LOVE IT!!!! keep up the amazing work fam :D
I love how you explain things in a way that's accessible to people outside the community. To other people, these might just seem like random levels in a game, but you did a great job here of explaining why these achievements are so special. If anyone asks me how I can get so excited over achievements in this game, I would direct them straight to this video. Once again, amazing work Also holy hell, just checked and there's 2 million views on the Funnygame video, you love to see it
I kept pulling out my phone while watching this, thinking I must've left Chrono Trigger music playing. The moment I realized it was background music in the video, I just lost it. Never before have I heard SNES-era VGM in a GD video; love it!
I used to watch donate your streams alot, but then stopped playing geometry dash entirely. After seeing some of your content I've returned to the game. The quality of your content is really high and I honestly find it some of the best content this community has to have. Keep up the good work!
Bro come on man how many bangers are you gonna release. I thought the funnygame video was like a 1 time thing but apparently I was wrong and and couldn't be more stoked. These videos are among my favourite. They feel so polished and fresh. Great work sami. I can't wait to see what you do in the future. :D
What a masterpiece of 40 minutes of explaining the level cap of Geometry Dash over the years. Well edited, well crafted, this video is beyond amazing. Can't wait to see what the new era of difficulty (which will inevitably be boosted by the release of 2.2) will bring!
Ayoo wtf this video just was in my recommendations and after I watched it, I looked what the current progress on silent clubstep is only to find out, that it was verified 8 hours ago... gg paqoe
I've watched this video so many times, it's actually so good. Even the subtle glitch effect in the Sonic Wave chapter title gave me goosebumps. You're fantastic at this kind of content Samifying
wow, I just discovered you you and it's absolutely amazing, the quality of the editing is unmatched in my opinion, you can feel the monstruous amount of work this video has in it, but not thinking about it and just enjoying this jewel is also possible. Thank you so much ! please know that you do make hundreds of thousands of people happy.
this is the first video i saw from you and the moment i saw it i know something good was coming up. not a single part was boring, everything was incredibly well edited, the video really felt like 20 people worked on it. i wish you the best of luck, you are too underrated!
I'm honored that you actually used the song I recommended to you at 25:40. Sonic the Hedgehog always has great OST's and I'm happy you used a song from it. Anyways, I've been in the community since 2015 and back then, I thought hacking wasn't even a thing that you could do. While hacking the game and pretending to be legit is a bad thing, it is interesting to see all the stories that spawned from people hacking. Great video Sam and please continue making more of these since these types of videos are always fun to watch.
@@Samifying You're welcome and there are even more songs like that one in sonic 2006's OST (Example: Just Smile.) Sonic 2006 is my all time favorite video game OST and is the only OST besides Undertale that I liked every single song from. You should definitely listen to the whole OST if you get the chance or even other sonic game's as well since each one also has really good music.
I was expecting this video to list all of the actual impossible levels that are still unbeaten to this day. I did not expect something this wonderfully edited with also quite a bit of humour at all. You deserve a lot more attention than you already have right now. Great job on making this
Love the video, it's so well done in every way. The pace, story, editing, its all perfect. Plus kicking baby KrmaL was hilarious, also you sound alot like BdoubleO
It's so crazy to see the incredible talent and dedication that some players have. This was amazing! The editing, the music, everything. It has such a cozy vibe to it. It's a true work of art.
Definitely one of the best GD videos. And its crazy to think that Silent Clubstep is getting verified, even crazier is that it might not even be top 1. Stuff like Slaughterhouse are really close to SC in difficulty.
@@gmddirvelin6972 the original being the first version sailent released. This version that is currently on Sailent’s account is nerfed. No one plays nor get decent runs from zero do the absurd difficulty of the predrop (like top 5 for predrop alone) and the entirety of the level.
@@SyntheticNuclear it is the original first version vision did pass the insane predrop ik that there was a nerfed on sailents account but vision is doing the original
"And if you allow me to steal a little bit of your time" Bro you can take 1 hour doing anything and I'll listen, the quality of this video is top tier.
This documentary smashes through the roof of what words can describe. There's even visual examples, which give a much more vivid perspective of what could even be imagined by anyone. Not only that but the descriptive characteristics of your words, and the enthusiasm crafted into them, chipped your project to absolute perfectionism. It looks incredible, it's more descriptive than one can imagine, but it's also very thorough and clear what's happening and being explained. I'm honestly surprised a masterpiece like this could be completed in 3 months, it's incredible to see such a major part of the community take another step up - moving from casual player to something incredible such as this. You've really outdone yourself on this project, Sami. I know I'm a bit late to give my perspective on it, but you've done an absolutely phenomenal job at giving the newer side of this community an indistinguishably descriptive yet thorough and clear way to understand what this game was like way back when. I really love this content style - it keeps me busy but it's also somewhat addicting to watch because of how well edited and clear it is but also with every minor detail chiseled to absolute perfection, both grammatically and visually. Cheers to the future, Sami! Whichever direction your channel takes, I'm enthusiastic for the future :)
38:18 The fact that now Silent Clubstep is now verified (by paqoe) is legitimately crazy Edit: Not tryna be one of those "omg tysm for "x" likes!!!1!!" but how did this get 370 likes lmao
The introduction to this video does an incredible job of grabbing my attention, so much so that it really is hard to look away from the screen throughout. Amazing choice of music too (I'm curious where you found such fitting music for this video). Amazing job, creative usage of the GD editor to emphasize your point and to outsource from your other creative outlets, and incredible storytelling (I have watched this video many, many times).
This video was in production hell for 3 months. So many things went wrong and I had to do a lot of re-edits. I pulled through and I really hope I can distract you from whatever's going on in your life even if it's only for 40 minutes.
My goal with this video is to share how magical it felt being part of these events over the last 9 years.
Thank you for taking time out of your day to watch my videos. I know I can't consistently release bangers like the Funnygame video but I sure as hell tried with this one.

I’ve been practicing Sedulous for my next hardest…
And I just gotta say…
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR PUTTING PLACES FOR START POSs TO BE AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR THEM
It’s just really helpful and I wanted to just say thanks! :)
Hopefully I can beat it without too much difficulty
It’s such a fun level to play. Thanks Sam.
This is easily one of the best GD videos I've seen recently, I absolutely love how clean everything is and how it manages to stay engaging over the whole 40 minutes. Yet again another masterpiece, thank you sami.
Dude this video is amazing, that's by far the best video I've watching about a GD topic. From the crazy editing to the amazing eye-catching effects... It's so clear how much hard work you put into making this masterpiece of a video. You inspired me to start my own project now! Keep creating
🔥🕳️
Ive only played geometry dash once when I was a kid and you made me watch this whole 40 minute video in one sitting. Great storytelling and editing!
thank you for this masterpiece
no friend of mine has ever touched this game
seeing that someone lived the same things as i did alone back in 2015 is really cool
makes me fell like i'm part of something that i didn't even know it existed
thank you for showing this to the world
**the nine circles gag hade me crying
bro this video is so crazy the amount of effort is so good, i dont think theres anyone on this platform that can make videos as good as this
This is insane, the story telling is the best, this editing and everything about this is just a masterpiece!
by FAR the best video made about GD I've ever seen, this production level is absolutely crazy, you'd struggle to find a team of editors hit a level like this.
Silent clubstep verified 😭😭😭
What an unbelievable documentary. It may not be everybody's favorite, but the history and lore of gd is so interesting and fun to watch. Reminds me of SEA
fax
Damn i miss sea1997 gd documentaries
Man I miss seas videos, they were both entertaining and informative
The “tone” of your writing/animation is so so good and I love it! I think that’s what makes your videos amazing; you have perfect awareness of your tone as a writer.
I should also mention you have a great “theory of mind,” or an ability to empathize with what it would feel like to not know a topic. This sounds obvious, but I’ve seen a lot of other creators leave out crucial details in explaining the games they like or generally just focus on the wrong things, and so I imagine it takes a lot of thought, which you clearly put in.
What an astonishingly interesting and appealing video! I myself started playing in 2015 so I didn't know about the impossible levels and this has really opened my eyes on the early days of GD. Amazing work!!!!!
I just watched a movie, dude. Absolutely beautiful video. Huge props. I've been in this community for so long, you almost brought a tear to my eye several times making me remember things
I never even heard of the game, yet you succeeded in keeping me hooked for the whole documentary and communicating the absolute epic, heroic drama of its history and dragon slayers. Dropping off the gamer chair 13:30 reminded me of Champollion...
Your video has so much feel in it and I felt like crying sometimes for some unknown reason and the edits are god mode a step ahead of burr! Also fantastic story and everything, AWW I JUST LOVE IT!!!! keep up the amazing work fam :D
I love how you explain things in a way that's accessible to people outside the community. To other people, these might just seem like random levels in a game, but you did a great job here of explaining why these achievements are so special. If anyone asks me how I can get so excited over achievements in this game, I would direct them straight to this video. Once again, amazing work
Also holy hell, just checked and there's 2 million views on the Funnygame video, you love to see it
I feel like I wanna cry for how inspiring and magic the video made me feel, the emotions and community I experiences was truly amazing.
I kept pulling out my phone while watching this, thinking I must've left Chrono Trigger music playing. The moment I realized it was background music in the video, I just lost it. Never before have I heard SNES-era VGM in a GD video; love it!
I used to watch donate your streams alot, but then stopped playing geometry dash entirely. After seeing some of your content I've returned to the game. The quality of your content is really high and I honestly find it some of the best content this community has to have. Keep up the good work!
Sami, never stop making such awesome videos, its been two minutes and im already enjoying it! Keep it up buddy!
Well the Silent Clubstep portion of the video aged very well I’d say. WHO WAS HERE
Oh my gosh! The quality of this is just off the charts. Good stuff man.
Bro come on man how many bangers are you gonna release. I thought the funnygame video was like a 1 time thing but apparently I was wrong and and couldn't be more stoked.
These videos are among my favourite. They feel so polished and fresh. Great work sami. I can't wait to see what you do in the future. :D
It hits different after SpaceUK got exposed, does it? Tragic how history repeats itself, isn't it?
wake up babe new sami video
lol
HI I LOV U
What a masterpiece of 40 minutes of explaining the level cap of Geometry Dash over the years. Well edited, well crafted, this video is beyond amazing. Can't wait to see what the new era of difficulty (which will inevitably be boosted by the release of 2.2) will bring!
Ayoo wtf this video just was in my recommendations and after I watched it, I looked what the current progress on silent clubstep is only to find out, that it was verified 8 hours ago... gg paqoe
36:36 i would not mind it at all to watch a 15 hour video from this guy
Yet again sami spends a piece of his soul for another banger documentary. I honestly love the comedic timing and effort put into this
This video format is dang near flawless. Please don't let this die!
30:16
* bro loses the best attempt yet on 98% on the most difficult level at the time *
chat: *m y d i c k i s e r e c t* *f u c k m y a s s h a r d*
LMFAOO
That's Twitch for ya
2:50 CRITICAL HIT!
also youre BACK with that inscryption soundtrack!!
I guess riot was right huh. GG Paqoe on Silent Clubstep and also, amazing video.
This was one hell of a nostalgia trip, thank you samifying for making these type of videos!
hi stormy
@@Aespha hi aespher 😍
1:21 I LAUGHED SO HARD
amazing video as always
I've watched this video so many times, it's actually so good. Even the subtle glitch effect in the Sonic Wave chapter title gave me goosebumps. You're fantastic at this kind of content Samifying
This editing is absolutely immaculate! Well done Mr Sami!
wow, I just discovered you you and it's absolutely amazing, the quality of the editing is unmatched in my opinion, you can feel the monstruous amount of work this video has in it, but not thinking about it and just enjoying this jewel is also possible. Thank you so much ! please know that you do make hundreds of thousands of people happy.
Bloodbath blew everyone’s minds back when it was beaten
this is the first video i saw from you and the moment i saw it i know something good was coming up. not a single part was boring, everything was incredibly well edited, the video really felt like 20 people worked on it. i wish you the best of luck, you are too underrated!
I'm honored that you actually used the song I recommended to you at 25:40. Sonic the Hedgehog always has great OST's and I'm happy you used a song from it. Anyways, I've been in the community since 2015 and back then, I thought hacking wasn't even a thing that you could do. While hacking the game and pretending to be legit is a bad thing, it is interesting to see all the stories that spawned from people hacking. Great video Sam and please continue making more of these since these types of videos are always fun to watch.
Thank you so much for showing me that song. It's a great emotional piece!!
@@Samifying You're welcome and there are even more songs like that one in sonic 2006's OST (Example: Just Smile.) Sonic 2006 is my all time favorite video game OST and is the only OST besides Undertale that I liked every single song from. You should definitely listen to the whole OST if you get the chance or even other sonic game's as well since each one also has really good music.
Just by watching the first 5 minutes, you can tell how much effort was put into this video. Can't wait for more amazing uploads like this one
I was expecting this video to list all of the actual impossible levels that are still unbeaten to this day.
I did not expect something this wonderfully edited with also quite a bit of humour at all. You deserve a lot more attention than you already have right now. Great job on making this
Love the video, it's so well done in every way. The pace, story, editing, its all perfect. Plus kicking baby KrmaL was hilarious, also you sound alot like BdoubleO
Yeah kind of…
Im rewatching your video essay series, worth doing like once a year 💯
Once again Sami, an amazing video posted by the GOAT. Can't wait to enjoy this one, well done Sami.
Watching this video has been a nostalgia trip. Really well done with the editing and script
It's so crazy to see the incredible talent and dedication that some players have. This was amazing! The editing, the music, everything. It has such a cozy vibe to it. It's a true work of art.
dude! that transition was smooth af at 12:07
Definitely one of the best GD videos. And its crazy to think that Silent Clubstep is getting verified, even crazier is that it might not even be top 1. Stuff like Slaughterhouse are really close to SC in difficulty.
Original Silent Clubstep is definitly humanly impossible
@@SyntheticNuclear no vision has 24-100 and 65% twice on original and 99.86% accuracy
@@gmddirvelin6972 the original being the first version sailent released. This version that is currently on Sailent’s account is nerfed. No one plays nor get decent runs from zero do the absurd difficulty of the predrop (like top 5 for predrop alone) and the entirety of the level.
@@SyntheticNuclear it is the original first version vision did pass the insane predrop ik that there was a nerfed on sailents account but vision is doing the original
and yes, it iss the first version it took vision a year to pass the predrop but now he is able to do it (every like 10000 attempts)
6:09 i love how you added the ib music. i feel like the ib soundtrack is perfect for storytelling like this
Amazing level! It was really great to watch, and one of the best gd history-type videos I've ever seen!
You probably mean video not level xd
@@emuliusv Yeah, I did mean that... oops!
Woah ! I really enjoyed every second of the video, thanks to the stunning work you did !
Keep it up Sami ! :D
the editing on this is AMAZING. love the atmosphere of the entire video and how it kept me immersed for the entirety of it
"And if you allow me to steal a little bit of your time"
Bro you can take 1 hour doing anything and I'll listen, the quality of this video is top tier.
This documentary smashes through the roof of what words can describe. There's even visual examples, which give a much more vivid perspective of what could even be imagined by anyone.
Not only that but the descriptive characteristics of your words, and the enthusiasm crafted into them, chipped your project to absolute perfectionism. It looks incredible, it's more descriptive than one can imagine, but it's also very thorough and clear what's happening and being explained.
I'm honestly surprised a masterpiece like this could be completed in 3 months, it's incredible to see such a major part of the community take another step up - moving from casual player to something incredible such as this.
You've really outdone yourself on this project, Sami. I know I'm a bit late to give my perspective on it, but you've done an absolutely phenomenal job at giving the newer side of this community an indistinguishably descriptive yet thorough and clear way to understand what this game was like way back when. I really love this content style - it keeps me busy but it's also somewhat addicting to watch because of how well edited and clear it is but also with every minor detail chiseled to absolute perfection, both grammatically and visually.
Cheers to the future, Sami! Whichever direction your channel takes, I'm enthusiastic for the future :)
38:18
The fact that now Silent Clubstep is now verified (by paqoe) is legitimately crazy
Edit: Not tryna be one of those "omg tysm for "x" likes!!!1!!" but how did this get 370 likes lmao
and now cursed became the first victor, this is absolute insanity.
@@Moiyima yeah
@@Moiyima Oops

It’s scary that it is like the 7th hardest level
The introduction to this video does an incredible job of grabbing my attention, so much so that it really is hard to look away from the screen throughout. Amazing choice of music too (I'm curious where you found such fitting music for this video). Amazing job, creative usage of the GD editor to emphasize your point and to outsource from your other creative outlets, and incredible storytelling (I have watched this video many, many times).
I love how you explain mechanics in GD so people who don’t play it a lot will understand, great video :D
You have a way of storytelling that’s just so baller, loving the stuff man ❤
Highest quality geometry dash documentary for the moment.
I stopped playing GD cuz it was gettings boring... but now I wanna play again >_
