Gonna give shoutouts down here to the music artists that I used in this video:
HOME - soundcloud.com/home-2001 - This guy is known for his song "Resonance", but I hope that his legacy doesn't end there. Resonance is great, but he has dozens of other tracks that are not only amazing for casual listening, but work fantastically as background music for videos (such as this one!) Thanks so much for letting me use your music, it's rare to see that with music creators of your stature.
Kevin MacLeod - incompetech.com/music/ - He needs no introduction. When it comes to royalty-free music, he is the king of it. His songs have probably been used in millions of productions worldwide, and for good reason- he has an enormous library of high quality songs. There's a few of his songs in particular (Frost Waltz, Impact Lento) that I keep coming back to for my videos. On behalf of myself and countless other creators, thank you for being awesome.
Luminist - luministmusic.bandcamp.com/ - I found him from his synthesizer remakes of the Metroid soundtrack. They were amazing of course, so I decided to poke around to see what other stuff he had. While there's not too much of it so far, what's there is really unique and beautiful. I've never heard music quite like the songs from his EP "Simulations" before, and I hope that you continue making music in the future. Thanks for letting me use what you've got so far, and I can't wait to see what's in store for later.
Shikimo - soundcloud.com/shikimo - Funnily enough, the way I found out about Shikimo was from an email that was sent to me Since I'm so picky with the music I use, it's rare that I find artists from them reaching out to me- the song Shikimo sent me, however, which I used in this video (Getaway) was too good to ignore. So, to any synth artists out there, please feel free to send me an email with what you've got! Thank you for deciding to contact me, Shikimo. I look forward to exploring more of what you have in the future.
Stevia Sphere - steviasphere.bandcamp.com/ - I learned about this artist recently, when I was just browsing through a youtube playlist looking for potential background music. When I found Stevia Sphere, I realized I had struck gold- there were dozens of brilliant, widely varying songs across a bunch of albums, and 95% of them were under a creative commons license, meaning they were free to use in videos. Stevia's music ranges from really relaxing, to thought provoking and inspiring, and everywhere in between. Thanks for all that you've done!
Three Chain Links - soundcloud.com/beardmont - I'm convinced that this guy creates some of the best synth music on the internet, and it's really a shame that he doesn't have a bigger following. Links' song "All We Ever See Of Stars" in particular is just incredible, but don't stop looking there- there are so many that are similar in quality. Links does a great job making music that sounds like it's ripped straight from 30 years ago. Thanks for creating it all, and for releasing it with a creative commons license no less!
Nice to see such great musicians have their talent be recognized.
The dashes after the links kinda mess it up, but you just gotta erase it in the URL cell :)
Ayyy even more reason the Salt deserves respect.
Summoning Salt there actually is another rainbow road ultra shortcut but it has only been done with tas
can you do one on SMB Wii please!
"He intentionally threw away a few seconds by picking Luigi simply because... well, he likes Luigi" A man of culture I see.
CreepyProduce approves
I always pick Luigi. He is a bro
only real ones would do that
I miss the year of Luigi
using Luigi only costs a few tenths lol, not a few seconds
"Why was it all possible?" That was the question in one guy's mind...
*M r . B e a n*
Lmao, I even remember Mr.Bean from back in the day. I could never master the shortcuts though
The usernames are part of what make these videos so great.

This guy makes Mario Kart Wii shortcuts sound like they are the most important discovery in history
Mario kart wii shortcuts are more important than your existance
He is maybe dedicated for the game you don't know
Technically they actually are. This video has over one million views. People can only meet a max of 80,000 people in their life. More people have watched this video than Floris will every meet in his life. Mario Kart Wii shortcuts are indeed more important than his existence.
and because it is the most important discovery in history
Arthur van Everdingen don’t listen to Arthur he is stupid
I was here, after 5 years it's done.
I just saw the clip
@@DeimosTYR I was there on his stream when arthur made it I was one of 6 people lool
After 5 years on the east coast, it was time to go home
@@korben669 I just saw the clip you said yoooo holy fuck

watching again. i don’t think it will ever get boring. idk why i love his videos, he makes me care about something otherwise i wouldn’t care about. i’m grateful for summoning salt doing this for me.
This my 3rd time lol
"a horizontal wall" yo sounds like a floor to me chief but okay.
Nah ma nigga it's a horizontal wall yo
oh you mean inverted horizontal walls
I don't know if it was meant to be a joke but you have to distinguish one from the other since "floors" don't trigger any glitches. Nor do ceilings.
@@doraemon402 'twas a joke my friend.
Nah that’s just the ground
MrBean will always hold the real record for Wario's Gold Mine in our hearts
then some guy named justin comes and beats it... twice
Lol
Just do the justin on dk summit double lol
"Luigi numba one!"
@@danhue2682 the double? justin cant even do the single
I love that you specifically said "author" at the end of the video, when a dude named "Arthur" actually landed the ultra shortcut today.
ARTHUR DID RAINBOW ROAD ULTRA SHORTCUT
he didit
he didit
He be like I did it I did it
@Brennan Walsh it’s here
NOW LOGAN BEAT HIM
@Brennan Walsh Look at his channel.
So, out of all the 32 courses,
11 courses has Ultra Shortcuts,
and 1 of them has 2 Ultra Shortcuts.
At this moment I realized how broken the game is.
wiewiur it’s probably smk, that game had the most broken map physics ever seen
Honestly I wouldn’t have it any other way. It’s like another tier of mastery with the game. Most of the community today is understanding enough to not do this in an online race so the game isn’t really abused. Bugs and glitches such as these that add another layer to the game that aren’t cheap are what give games personality and keep them relevant for years to come
And that’s why this game is still so popular
Zach Z Mario kart physics for the win man
And now 21/32 tracks are glitched
*Job interview*
Boss: Do you have any degrees or scholarship?
Me: Ummm I have a Mario Kart Wii Checkpoint degree
Leo loeki HIRED!
Welcome to nintendo.
Practical experience is more important than the debt mills now.
Who's here after Arthur pulled off the omega rainbow road shortcut
I am! I also left a comment!
"Literally everyone who reads your comment"
@@patrickshell2813 True :O
Me.
Yup
Who's here after Arthur just became the first person do to the Rainbow Road ultra shortcut? :)
ARTHUR BECAME THE AUTHOR
HELL YEAH
Nobody:
Coconut Mall speedrunners: “hmm yes the floor here is made out of wall”
LMFAO
@Eric Lee I think it fits tbh
@Eric Lee It highlights that the only people thinking this way would be the speedrunners. And that anyone else probably wouldn't care whatsoever.
@Eric Lee its litterally a meme format it would have looked weirder if he didnt put the "Nobody:"
@Eric Lee I mean, he's right, it *is* a meme format.
"Get ready, everyone, you're about to earn a degree in Mario Kart Wii checkpoints."
Well, indeed :P
I commend you for holding a six year record! I’ve been playing Mario Kart since Double Dash as a child and I play Mario Kart 8 WiFi because I love the game, and I thought fire hopping was tricky! I see things like your video and I’m humbled. Even coming from an MK8 player like myself, MKWii is truly the pinnacle of the Mario Kart experience. Keep it up, man! 😀
But first we need to talk about parallel universes
You should get the Rainbow World ultra shortcut in a run.

RAINBOW ROAD GLITCH HAPPENED TODAY! 1/13/21
"We've seen driving on a rock formation, riding along a wall, and jumping through a bridge. This time, it's something a little bit simpler. Driving through a parking lot." I've heard a LOT of bone chilling lines before, but none has ever come close to THAT specific one.
I love how Nintendo just sat there and watched people break their game and make world records
They really did just sit there and eat popcorn
It's not like they could patch the game or anything. That wasn't possible on the wii despite kit having wifi
They can’t update it or anything because they gave you the game in discs

I had very low expectations when this started from auto play when I wasn’t paying attention but for some reason I said fuck it and didn’t click off, i am so glad I didn’t. This is one of the greatest UA-cam videos I’ve ever seen. This is what UA-cam was made for. Well done man.
Kittycatcarter I’m with you. This was such a great video. I really didn’t know what to expect, because I’m not a huge wii player, but I loved this video so much

@@hdbidhdib9471 I'm a Millennial. I was born in 1982. I'll be 50 in 14 years.
F U C K. This is blowing my mind how accurate this is. It’ll be shit like this and all the self deprecating memes we have now that’ll be obsolete by then
I find Mario Kart Wii's glitches and shortcuts like these to be absolutely fascinating to me. As a kid, I'd watch Mario Kart Wii glitch videos and learn how to do most of them. I was never a speed runner, they were just fun to do; especially with my siblings. I loved going out of bounds in courses (Maple Treeway and Coconut Mall being my favourite) and exploring areas of race tracks that were never meant to be driven on.
It's such a shame Mario Kart 8 doesn't have any out of bounds glitches like MKWii does. Well of course, the fact that there's no glitches is generally a good thing, but I just miss pulling off crazy glitches and tricks. I was pretty disappointed when I found out that you can't even go backwards or Lakitu will place you back on course. I just wanted to explore Toad Harbour 😔
31:35 Well, we finally found "The Arthur"
Right youtube, i'm watching it now.

You're missing out. This game has some of the most satisfying physics and controls ever.
For sure seems like it. I played some Mario Kart Deluxe recently, but this and the Mario Kart N64 video seem to show so much more heart and effort (and skill) by their respective gaming/speedrunning communities.

Whos here after the Rainbow Road Ultra Shortcut was done by a human
"the story will be written, but who will be the author?" *starts crying*
You
It's the never ending story
You will be the author i believe in u
English teachers having an existential crisis rn
That ending was so inspirational
Every one of these guys has at least one little nephew or cousin who just HATES them.
lmao so true
Or little neice
I am the little niece...
Although, I don't get mad when I'm playing with someone else because I usually get 2nd place which I am very okay with.
@@alienzlurpiez lol I was the little sister and I had a short temper. But I got better at the game and I don't get mad anymore if I get in 2nd place xd but I beat my brother all the time now ;)
@@No_Name6970
I have a super short temper.
am I the only one who comes back here every few months?
am I the only one who loves videos about the inner workings, and coding mechanics of video games?
You are not

Me in my mind: "Something great is about to happen soon"
The Ultra Shortcut (Now with NEW Funky Mode)
Mario Kart Wii should just be renamed to FUNKY KONG WII
You call them horizontal walls I call them floors
Ethan Simon lol
But they work as walls, you can’t drive on them
MaverickDoesEverything Aight ok
I call them reverse ceilings
Super Mario 64 has vertical ceilings and horizontal walls.
Why do i tear up from watching a half-hour mario kart documentary from 4 years ago, no matter how many times i come back?

*You’re godamn right*
This is brilliant, an actual documentary about MKWii
xd
I just realized why I love your videos so much. It's not so much that you deliver a chronicle of speedrunning milestones - it's something greater and much more powerful. What YOU do is you weave narratives, tell stories. And you're a great storyteller, gripping your audience with something as seemingly mundane as "how this guy found a way to trick the game out of a few seconds, and then some months later some obsessed kid beat him". Sure, speedrunning is in fact amazing, but only if you can see the grand scheme and you do that, draw the lines, and present it as a whole, as something with context and personal struggle, innovation, individuals, and collectives.
Not to mention your visual narratives (like the cool little intro on this one). You're a good presenter, but you're a grade A storyteller. I could never sit through endless trials at some obscure game's world record - but I'll gladly watch hours of your stories. Any storyteller and writer can learn from you - as absurd as it would seem at first glance, lol! Cheers!
My thoughts exactly. Summoning Salt could make even the most boring thing seem huge and interesting. He tells stories with huge twists and turns, and the editing and music and script all helps every moment seem monumental. I didn't give a damn about speedrunning before I found this channel. I get really excited whenever he posts, because each video is consistently great
I second that.
As an aspiring writer I second this.
Brilliant comment. Well articulated.
Great comment, this is a wonderful community.

"Because he likes using Luigi."
Same reason I've managed to absolutely devestate my friends in Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros.
I'm not here to win, I'm just here to have fun.
That might explain why I keep destroying my siblings as Waluigi using the Standard L kart lol
@@greyfinch2565 here I am trying to use the command to beat rainbow road faster than the bots, but failing cause Im bad. The wii controller sucks for mario kart imo.
@@alex2005z have you got the Wii wheel thing
@@thepizzatime3502 I got the wheel, but I'm bad
I also use Luigi always
“It’s not known why this happens, but all that matters is that it does happen”
Frickin genius.
I wish I could just say that to my teachers
Teacher: where are your sums for this question?
Me: i don't know how it happened, but all that matters is that it works
Whose here the day of ArthurP doing the lap of Rainbow Road ultra shortcut?
Yep
