Footcream: Saw the hub-bub about pencil sharpening world records. Got the world record using his special technique. shared that technique with you, so you could beat him. used a bunch of puns about pencil sharpening. sent you $30 worth of sharpeners. is nobody talking about this mysterious pencil sharpening legend?
This is an amazing catagory. Still, there's a lot to come in this record. A wide range of premium sharpeners are still going to be faster, the twin blade one he picked initially being a great choice. The KUM sharpeners at the beginning of the video being another, along with the great name. There's a good array of novel sharpeners out there. But you need to sharpen the blades and replace them when they are overused. Premium pencils are obviously better, but picking the correct wood makes a huge difference. Premium tend to use hardwood instead of the woods cheap pencils use gumming up the internals, I'd presume maple would be the best hardwood choice. However talk to a carpenter to find out which is easiest to plane. Finally I'd think a few miscellaneous tweaks might help too. Lubricant on the inside of the sharpener so it spins freer. Pencils contain graphite which is a great lubricant, graphite powder would be better. Maybe even something like molybdenum dabbed on the end of each pencil or something equally silly could help. I'm not able to be the sharpening world record holder myself, but I can at least advance the meta for those who are able to compete.
As a pencil collector my advice for chocie of pencil would go to Blackwing Pencils, they are made of premium quality cedar wood wich sharpen like butter (They are however super expansive) A even better pencilchoice would go to the Mitsubishi Hi-Uni wich is even more expansive but smooooth. Graphite also plays a big factor, the scale goes from B (soft and dark) to HB (Midrange and most used pencils) to H (Hard and light) So the smartest choice would be using B10 graphite pencils with premium quality cedar wood. And than the choice of sharpener, i am unaware if it's a rule but crank sharpeners are the godtier sharpeners in all aspect, if they are not allowed a Kum sharpeners would be my choice aswell. I want to see a sub 1 minute run now KEKW
@@Tosh.O There's many, many types of lubricant. Dry lubricant specifically being one style. Molybdenum being my favoured industrial lubricant, it loves to build up grey stains everywhere but imo typically better than graphite. Both are in powder form, graphite similar to powdered pencil lead which obviously doesn't make the wood chips stick.
And that's where you see the magic of a meme topic made for fun being used by actual legitimate tryharders. And it's wonderful. Lads are just dead serious and focused at such a ridiculous task it just kills me. Even without the video footages I'd be laughing hard at the leaderboard lmao
The craziest part is how the WR went from 30min+ to sub 4min without you setting any of the records until the end, just because you started trying to beat the 30min mark.
my guess is that they sharpened 9 pencils, took a 6 hour nap, found out they miscounted the number of sharpened pencils and then finished the speedrun skfjdfjskfjsdfh
I just think it’s absolutely mind boggling that it took someone almost 7 and a half hours to sharpen 10 pencils. Their sharpeners probably kept on breaking and they had to go to the store over and over (4:14)
This feels like a full anime season SmallAnt has a dream. SmallAnt attempts to achieve his dream, of being the fastest pencil sharpener ever. SmallAnt does relatively well, and pursues his dream.

this is the best example of what speedrunners do. They take something ordinary, do it faster than humanly possible, and work to find the perfect method to do perfectly.

It's actually pretty wholesome how FootCream reached out to SmallAnt. Ant couldn't have done it without him. Props to you FootCream o7
It's in his best interest to get beaten by a big content creator because it gets him more well known, then in the future he can beat him and it will be a big deal thus making him even more well known. Pretty smart actually.
@@MatthewCJoy He wasn't trying to be smart. He was just being a bro. I don't think he has even attempted another speed run.

I love that they did there
It's wonderful

@@lightcer3 I didn't even catch that one
"Sharpen your skills"
Gods among men
despite pencils being made out of graphite I think LEAD is a play on words as well, idk if you guys caught that
Mr.Beast in 10 years: WHERE DID ALL THE TREES WE PLANTED GO??
Pencil sharpening speed runners: aw man I have no idea
Great comment xD
Underrated comment
This feels like it should be a Regular Show Episode.
Underrated
Very true.
And then in classic Regular Show fashion, the ghost of the king of pencil sharpening rises from the dead and tries to stop them from achieving the world record
Sharpening pencils
Makin us go mental
To beat the world record
And stop being ignored
Wooooaaaahhh!

This might be the greatest UA-cam video ever created
"I realized my dream was unachievable, thus I stopped sharpening pencils." Most powerful statement ever
7:51 "My hands were a bit torn up from the sharpening-" they're literally bleeding I-
sometimes, Gods bleed
*Ant literally Cutting his finger in half*
Ant: Yeah it's nothing important just my fingers jammed a bit.
this is the best example of what speedrunners do. They take something ordinary, do it faster than humanly possible, and work to find the perfect method to do perfectly.
Engineering and innovation at its finest
I'm the 420th like
Looks humanly possible to me
The people simping for your feet in the chat had me dead lmao 💀💀
Okay jokes aside, can we appreciate how determined this dude is? Holy sh-
Umm he did give up .. until the gods revived him
Yeah lol he got RSI one time when speedrunning SMO. He achieves what he wants or dies trying
Was determined til he needed external help
hi simon cowell
it
7:50 "torn up a bit" mans literally cut himself sharpening
Oof*
7:50 is an add 😂
Once in 2nd grade i put my finger in the sharpener and twisted,and half my finger nail cut off
Gabe Russo There’s always one kid, and you just hope it isn’t yours haha.
@@heyitsflydehow
Nobody's gonna talk about
"I WOOD be happy to LEAD you in the WRITE direction"
BARS
isn’t lead correct in the sentence........ not a pun....
dont forget "We heard you would like to SHARPEN your skills"
Should be “be happy to graphite you”
@@Lolzorpantz Huh?
I can't believe that I am watching someone sharpening PENCILS for 13:09 mins and i enjoyed it it was so heart warming for i don't why
I’m going to tell my kids this was part of the Olympics
Oh no
Ur user666
Uhhhhhh
GAME AND WAR PUBG were doomed
Yeee same
"hey bro can you sharpen this pencil?"
"yeah just let me go home and change my shorts"
hahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣
FootCream saw potential him, that's why he decided to mentor SmallAnt in his journey
because he knew SmallAnt had what it took to surpass him
This sounds like anime
@@paper1790 I was about to comment on that
The Sensei pass the knowledge and wisdom to his disciple
Just wait until the Sharpener tournament arc
Rifqi Hatta oh no
i’ve watched ant for a little under a year now. this video has shown up in my feed so many times now and i’ve avoided it until now idk why
No one:
Electric pencil sharpener: imma end this whole man’s.....
Any% would be just dump 10 on wood chipper
@@cypherusuh lMAO
Lol
Lmao haha I wonder what it would be then
Imagine if this were an actual career lol
Career? Hah
I think u could cut this run down a bit with blackwing pencils, the wood they use is really soft and never splinters, they're top of the line and this run is definitely p2w
My engineering teacher really likes pencils and pencil sharpeners and he almost exclusively uses palomino blackwing pencils he loves them
Pencil nerd!
Honestly I would suffer if somebody just wasted 10 of the finest pencils in the world...
@@MoneySpreadEd sounds interesting *checks pricing in Sweden* 35 dollar for 12 pens?!?!?! ill stick with my 2500 dollar notepad that others call macbook..
We got a pencil nerd over here
Lmao black wings do be superior tho
I saw one chat message that said “is smallant mid or post breakdown” and that’s one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a while

As an artist who has sharpened more than 300 pencils in one sitting (obviously not to the stubs) I saw this and thought oh no the blisters
"Some people go for riches,
Some people go for fame,
But him,
He sharps pencils"

Wait hold up-
