I've always heard the phrase "kicked the bucket," but I think this is the first time I've seen someone quite literally die by kicking a bucket. Gotta love Skyrim's physics engine...
I've seen it once before, but it's such an obscure example that I need to explain it. Companions of Xanth, an old PC Adventure game from the 90s based on the novels by Piers Anthony, had a pail on the ground. If you clicked on it, you had a list of other options show up like take and kick. If you hovered over kick, "pail" changed to "bucket." And Xanth is very big on puns - to the point that using "take" on an ajar door deletes the door and adds a jar to your inventory. So kicking the bucket does indeed kill you. What you're supposed to do is catapult a rock into it from a distance since you can only reach your destination by going past it, and it flies away every time you approach to do anything besides kick it.

I must have restarted Skyrim thousands of times since buying it, but I think I've only legitimately finished the main quest once, on my very first character.
Sometimes you take damage when you walk over a skeleton's ribcage, I don't know why. But if it happened in this run, you'd have died because you tripped on a skeleton, which I think is pretty hilarious.
It is because of how psychics objects like boulders or swinging gates are used to hurt people. When an physic object is pushed into the ground with enough force it basically becomes sandwiched between you and the ground, which forces it to move at insanely high speeds... which results in player damage. This is why the swinging gate which kills the guy who has the golden claw sometimes won't hurt you... while other times it will 1-shot you.

@@jaxsonbateman trainers cost a lot tho, you need a plan in place to get the gold needed to afford them. goldenhills is a good option if you have the anniversary edition, but you'd have to avoid leveling to get there, or accept that you're gonna lose out on a few levels of training. also just want to say, i found sneak attacking ralof/hadvar much faster than walking against a wall. sneak attacking i can get sneak to 100 in about an hour and a half. walking into a wall took at least 4 hours. you can get your one-handed up to about 40ish too, and leave the tutorial at level 17.
Spent hours and 90% of the video at the enchanter and alchemy tables, which we have all seen many times before... spent 30 seconds testing the build on just 2 non hostile enemies.
And he still got killed because Armor 5 billion is no better than Armor 700 because of the armor cap that prevents armor from absorbing more than 80% of incoming damage.
Not making a joke, stealth archer is more than just an op meme way to play skyrim. Its relaxing, and really let's you enjoy the scenery and music, and those moments when you line up a long range shot and get that 10 secs of anticipation as your arrow flies through the air before nailing your target from barely in your line of sight- that's just pure zen bliss.
I love stealth archers. ESO's build for it used slow time and alteration potions to kill a whole room before they even know you're there, even on legendary.
Right, I just fell on it naturally. "It just works". My most satisfying, best times in Skyrim are literally sneaking around outside Whiterun and skewering deer through the anus from a million miles away xD
Every time I'm determined to make and play a different character (two handed, mage, battle mage, necromancer or whatever), but it always degenerates to a Stealth Archer, every goddamn time. D:
This is like your fifth _long_ video about the fortify alchemy loop... and not the first where you imply playing through/finishing the game, but don't get anywhere near the end. Here's a basic video timeline: 0:00 - 7:00 intro - Intermission to level sneak and spend points 10:30 Meet with khajiit caravan to buy items for the fortify restoration/alchemy loop. - Travel to whiterun 14:35 begin FR glitch tutorial - Travel 16:25 Become a vampire and use a glitch to equip many items for the FR glitch. - Do FR loop in Whiterun 26:46 Make a potion of fortify smithing - Make OP gear - Fight Ebony Warrior - Video ends Can we beat skyrim with 1 HP? _Theoretically,_ yes but we didn't get to see it.
Yeah I was really looking for an actual playthrough (well, relevant parts at least) where we can see more of "can't take even 1HP of fall damage" moments and other similar moments where you may not be able to always sneak around. But no, it all ends way too soon.
to be fair, this isn't a challenge channel like say, mittensquad or nerbit. this is a "can i break shit and if so, how badly" channel. the one hp challenge? just flavor. what specifically do i break to pull this off, rather than can i.
He doesn't even exploit legitimately either, he used console commands to give himself the ebony blade hence it being in his inventory at 15:25, and when he "cured" his vampirism, he edited that entire bit out and he still has the vampire eyes afterwards, meaning he either didn't even go do that and lied, or used console commands to edit his character or something and it didn't update his player model, that or he's been using godmode this entire time, which I would believe since he's apparently been using fast travel, which would be impossible since he'd die as soon as he spawned in to the sun. He can't even make a video about exploiting properly without cheating on top of that lmao, such a low effort video and it's completely clickbait.
Simple solution: stack 5 amulets of Talos via so as to use the infinite shout exploit, spam the auethrial shout and use the blood skal blade to damage enemies via the weapon's projectials, by enlarge, you will be almost be invincible in spite of 1 health
Baffling how different the experiences can be with the same challenge. Mitten Squad is a walk of despair and suffering. Spiffing Brit is a light and overall cheerful experience.
You know, every time you release another Skyrim video, it unironically makes me want to play Skyrim again to break it. Dispite being almost 11 years old, there are things that still surprise me about the game
I had a build that could get that second ebony warrior. Get high sneak on your boots and level up illusion for invisibility / quiet casting. You cast invisible and enter stealth mode and the enemy loses track of you
Fun fact: The Aspect of Terror perk increases the basedamage of any firespell by 10. Also if you already put 2 ranks into the Augumented flames perk before that becomes 10. This also aplies to the Ignite spell doing 21 damage per second for I think 15s. Dual cast it and it becomes 42. And this actually stacks. Also Ignite doesn't cost that much. You can improve that even further by 25% with the Azhidal mask.

Reminds me of my most hilarious Skyrim moment. I was doing a "one-hit-point" challenge and ran across a spriggan who charmed a fox into attacking me and my last save was a 'quick save' JUST before the fight. 1) Yes, a fox CAN damage you, 2) they are remarkably quick, and 3) they seem to take fiendish delight in insta-killing you from an auto-restart after you die.

@@jaxsonbateman trainers cost a lot tho, you need a plan in place to get the gold needed to afford them. goldenhills is a good option if you have the anniversary edition, but you'd have to avoid leveling to get there, or accept that you're gonna lose out on a few levels of training.
also just want to say, i found sneak attacking ralof/hadvar much faster than walking against a wall. sneak attacking i can get sneak to 100 in about an hour and a half. walking into a wall took at least 4 hours. you can get your one-handed up to about 40ish too, and leave the tutorial at level 17.
Rioters: "WHERE'S ELDER SCROLLS VI???!!! "
*Spiff's phone rings*
Todd Howard:" It's time.."
Spiff:" Skyrim Is A Perfectly Balanced Game!!"
Idk what produced more fluids:
Bethesda milking Skyrim with 2 extra editions.
Or Spiff crapping all over it whenever he needed some fast views.
(Spiff's phone rings)
Todd Howard: "It just works."
Seriously? We have *at least* two more re-releases of Skyrim before TES VI :)
"You can't handle my most powerful potions."
Nigel the Noodle:
He's a rascal with no respect for knights
“I hope it’s another Skyrim release”
Spiff you friggin prophet.
Spent hours and 90% of the video at the enchanter and alchemy tables, which we have all seen many times before...
spent 30 seconds testing the build on just 2 non hostile enemies.
Yeah, this was pretty memey, ngl.
And he still got killed because Armor 5 billion is no better than Armor 700 because of the armor cap that prevents armor from absorbing more than 80% of incoming damage.
Your character looks like he's wearing three moustaches on top of each other. His bottom lip, his top lip, and his actual moustache.
Sounds suspiciously like you’re insulting Nigel The Noodle.
Spiff - " cured vampirism, cost 900 gold "
Nigel, turns around - still a vampire.
Good sir?
I noticed that too. XD Glitch maybe? XD
@@r.t.8737 i scrolled down to see if anyone else said anything about it
Glad I wasn’t the only one!
I was looking for this comment
@@Silverfur01 Also noticed
Not making a joke, stealth archer is more than just an op meme way to play skyrim. Its relaxing, and really let's you enjoy the scenery and music, and those moments when you line up a long range shot and get that 10 secs of anticipation as your arrow flies through the air before nailing your target from barely in your line of sight- that's just pure zen bliss.
Can't forget the cockblock of watching the arrow fly for an eternity to then miss the target.
I love stealth archers. ESO's build for it used slow time and alteration potions to kill a whole room before they even know you're there, even on legendary.
Right, I just fell on it naturally. "It just works". My most satisfying, best times in Skyrim are literally sneaking around outside Whiterun and skewering deer through the anus from a million miles away xD
Let's not forget it builds your stealth for your eventual transition to skulking cutthroat, which is far more fun than it should be xD
@@MrGoatflakes Yeah, Stealth Archer is fun. It's a shame it takes 10 years to lvl stealth without meta though
Soooooo... Nigel is gonna be "Stealth Archer: The Character"?
Isn't that every character? Lol
Every time I'm determined to make and play a different character (two handed, mage, battle mage, necromancer or whatever), but it always degenerates to a Stealth Archer, every goddamn time. D:
I don't know how everybody says that. I tried to be stealth archer but it was so boring I became two handed warrior-mage.
I never played skirim, I only recently play it for the first time and love it, im start wanting to use magic and them i become a stealth archer...
Stealth archer isn't a play style, it's a way of life.
Spiffing Brit: "Some say it is beating up the elderly, but it is necessary"

Spiff: I've started this game over 70 times.
Me: P A T H E T I C.
"The ability to one-hit the world, and the world can one-hit back." Beautiful.
This is like your fifth _long_ video about the fortify alchemy loop... and not the first where you imply playing through/finishing the game, but don't get anywhere near the end.
Here's a basic video timeline:
0:00 - 7:00 intro
- Intermission to level sneak and spend points
10:30 Meet with khajiit caravan to buy items for the fortify restoration/alchemy loop.
- Travel to whiterun
14:35 begin FR glitch tutorial
- Travel
16:25 Become a vampire and use a glitch to equip many items for the FR glitch.
- Do FR loop in Whiterun
26:46 Make a potion of fortify smithing
- Make OP gear
- Fight Ebony Warrior
- Video ends
Can we beat skyrim with 1 HP? _Theoretically,_ yes but we didn't get to see it.
Yeah I was really looking for an actual playthrough (well, relevant parts at least) where we can see more of "can't take even 1HP of fall damage" moments and other similar moments where you may not be able to always sneak around. But no, it all ends way too soon.
@@Rapora9 Exactly! There's so much potential but instead it's a clickbait title.
I updated my comment to include what actually happens.
to be fair, this isn't a challenge channel like say, mittensquad or nerbit.
this is a "can i break shit and if so, how badly" channel. the one hp challenge? just flavor. what specifically do i break to pull this off, rather than can i.
He doesn't even exploit legitimately either, he used console commands to give himself the ebony blade hence it being in his inventory at 15:25, and when he "cured" his vampirism, he edited that entire bit out and he still has the vampire eyes afterwards, meaning he either didn't even go do that and lied, or used console commands to edit his character or something and it didn't update his player model, that or he's been using godmode this entire time, which I would believe since he's apparently been using fast travel, which would be impossible since he'd die as soon as he spawned in to the sun. He can't even make a video about exploiting properly without cheating on top of that lmao, such a low effort video and it's completely clickbait.
@@Azure_faecry about it
Shoutout to DougDoug for doing the extreme version of this challenge and somehow turning it into two murder cases
Fondle was innocent!
"The ability to one-hit the world and have the world one-hit back"
Right in the feels.
I really liked the part where he beat the game
Is it just me, or does Nigel look like he's one acid dip away from becoming the Joker?
Looks almost like Benedict Cumberbatch
I was thinking more Waluigi, but yeah.
"not a glass cannon, but a superlaser made of paper"
-some pokemon youtuber i cannot remeber the name of
The more extreme form of the Glass Cannon
A cardboard nuke.
A self destructing universe shattering leaf cannon that sits apon a house of cards that is next to a chain of dominos that will knock into it
I mean playing on legendary is basically like having one hp except you have just have to wait a tiny bit longer to die.
Thats called 2hp
Good lord Spiff, you’ve created the Four Horsemen of the Elder Scrolls apocalypse:
Reanu Keeves
Barry the Boneraiser
Nigel the Noodle
Seymour Cleavage
ACHTUALLLLLLY, SEYMOUR CLEAVAGE WAS IN OBLIVION /s
Now i have to find the Seymour video
I actually watched some of the Seymour videos during a binge, it was seriously worth the rewatch. Spiff is a genius.
5 horseman, you forgot hodd toward
@@Wharf922 tell me this comment is ironic.
The moment I saw the specifically 117% alchemy ring, I instantly thought "Wonder if Spiff can break Halo."
You can level sneak in bleak falls barrow much easier because you can do it with like 5 draugr instead of 1 bear
How where
Simple solution: stack 5 amulets of Talos via so as to use the infinite shout exploit, spam the auethrial shout and use the blood skal blade to damage enemies via the weapon's projectials, by enlarge, you will be almost be invincible in spite of 1 health
Baffling how different the experiences can be with the same challenge.
Mitten Squad is a walk of despair and suffering.
Spiffing Brit is a light and overall cheerful experience.
Mitten doesn´t use exploits as far as I know
@@patrickn.4113 only the small ones like quicksave quickload or spam enter/exit power armor through a wall
You know, every time you release another Skyrim video, it unironically makes me want to play Skyrim again to break it. Dispite being almost 11 years old, there are things that still surprise me about the game
If you use "forceav" instead of "setav, " you won't have to do it again when you reload or crash.
"It just works... in mysterious ways"
- God Howard
These videos are the reason I just spent a whopping $13USD to download Skyrim this week after 11 years since I last played
Spiffing Brit: Carefully calculated glitches and exploits
DougDoug: Trial and error. Mostly error
We need to get Nigel the movie, and have Benedict Cumberbatch play him.
@TheJenderi: But then, he'd have max charisma, therefore making his hp be effectively infinite. *YOU FOOL, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!!*
I had a build that could get that second ebony warrior. Get high sneak on your boots and level up illusion for invisibility / quiet casting. You cast invisible and enter stealth mode and the enemy loses track of you
Fun fact: The Aspect of Terror perk increases the basedamage of any firespell by 10. Also if you already put 2 ranks into the Augumented flames perk before that becomes 10. This also aplies to the Ignite spell doing 21 damage per second for I think 15s. Dual cast it and it becomes 42. And this actually stacks. Also Ignite doesn't cost that much. You can improve that even further by 25% with the Azhidal mask.
Wait, Mitten Squad is British now?
I see you are cultured as well. It's only a matter of time until Spiff fights a air vent
100% spent 30 seconds trying to figure this out
Spiff has been doing a few of these videos recently. He must be trying to be, Spitten Squad

YMFAH collab when?
@@thespiffingbrit Nice. You guys should launch a yorkshire gold flavoured vodka.
Would buy just for the memes

@@InSanic13 YMFAH has already spoken in several of his videos, one noteable one is how to be OP and BL4 in bloodborne, but I recall earlier videos where he spoke too. He also cameoed in Zero Lenny's Demon's Souls remake experience.

@e bb he talked during his Skyrim: level one video
I’ve watched like 20 of these and I’m still waiting for him to do the first quest towards beating Skyrim
Spiff: Spends 40 mins leveling sneak then kills bear with one sneak attack.
Ralof: Sneaking is overrated, eh?
Nigel: "This dragon bout to taste a whole plate of pain pasta!!"
**Nigel dies to a small breeze**
"You know what? Maybe I'm not made for this...."
Reminds me of my most hilarious Skyrim moment. I was doing a "one-hit-point" challenge and ran across a spriggan who charmed a fox into attacking me and my last save was a 'quick save' JUST before the fight. 1) Yes, a fox CAN damage you, 2) they are remarkably quick, and 3) they seem to take fiendish delight in insta-killing you from an auto-restart after you die.
ok old comment but that happened to me with a fox. never encountered the tree being so I thought it had rabies
This looks like Reanu Keeves with one extra step.
"Potion Seller, i am going into battle and i need your strongest potions."

"One of the most difficult and challenging games ever created."
Me with infinite health, magicka and stamina in the first 4 hours:
I think I may have made my character too op. If I equip my enchanted leather bracers and make a potion, the game crashes. WONDERFULLY BALANCED
The way you say “noodle” makes my soul happy
Ive seen you make this same video before like 3 times i was looking forward to you running through the game with 1 hp maybe even with the crossbow
You didn’t beat Skyrim. You just killed the Ebony warrior
Skyrim’s exploits are so absurd that I often wonder if God King Todd Howard inserted them intentionally to reward the diligent tinkerer.
Idk man I came to watch a 1hp run not the same exploit loop for the 3rd time
Ikr, his Skyrim videos are so repetitive
I doubt this is what this was, but if this was just part 1 of a series of playing skyrim this way then it'd be fine.
Skyrim = views, views = money. I don't hate the player
Hello, welcome to Spiff's channel.
Yet it was still enjoyable, anytime he can find a new way to compliment God Howard is worth the time.
“I hope you’re all excited to see what he has for us in 2021, I hope it’s another Skyrim release” oh how this aged well
I was expecting an unexpected mid-video Yorkshire Tea integration, seemingly we now can finally have some coffee. Today and only today enjoy you coffee.
Dougdoug bathed himself in mayo trying this challenge.
This is an okay second place
30:52 you’re in luck! Skyrim Anniversary Edition is coming to stores near you on 11/11/2021!
Todd Howard: This is a bucket
Spiff: Dear god
Todd Howard: There's more
Spiff: No

Exploits in skyrim?
Ah yes this floor is made of floor.
Exploits? Godd Howard would never let an exploit slip by him, this game only has *intended features*
