      Well defining a capture is important as the run is based off of getting the least of them possible. They could be familiar with the any% run and the lingo involved without knowing what is considered a capture.

This dude is just talking while counting two seperate things.

    I have a theory that probably won’t work but maybe theoretically could…
    You skip bowser capture by leaving him behind, doing some jumps up to the first wall you would have to destroy. If a clip is found for this wall you could skip every wall. Then there are invisible platforms outside the 2d area that you can stand on. If you leap to the pipe to the 2d area, stand on top of it, and do the three jumps, you can pass the 2d area. Then you clip through the walls again and you are in the final area. If you could find a glitch to get outside of the golden area or at least far enough you could get the cutscene and skip bowser. Just a thought that probably won’t work.

      @@MyHandleIsAplaceholder I don't know if you watch his streams at all, but I watched a few of him trying to get this take for an SGDQ submission. He did this run and did this commentary, I don't know how many times, starting a new run, with full tutorial commentary every time, whenever things went bad. He did that several times in a row, before encountering technical difficulties, and deciding to do it off screen. That was actually quite some time ago now, and so I wouldn't be surprised if, rather than being edited, that this was just like, his 15th or 20th take of the same run.
      So it's most likely just a single take, but just rehearsed like crazy. Which is also why his gameplay is so good.
