- Read the description for a brief description of the video, a few minor corrections of slight editing errors, notable links, and new record improvements since the release of the video:
𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐟 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧:
This video provides a history of Ocarina of Time's any% speedrun from the game's release until November 2017. It should not be considered extremely detailed or comprehensive - going through all of the contributions and discoveries would take too long and wouldn't flow particularly well. However, I cover all of the major discoveries and provide simplified explanations of the technical glitches. I also cover some of the more obscure but interesting details.
The video was somewhat rushed near the end of production and I didn't polish it as much as I would like. Hopefully you will enjoy it anyway, there are just some minor issues and editing errors (documented below). I will aim to improve my quality for future videos (this one is definitely a step up from my previous video).
𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬:
I referred to Mitjitsu as "Mitijitsu" at multiple places in the video. I wrote his name slightly wrong in the script and failed to double check - sorry about that!
At 4:05, a corner card appears for a clip from Marc Rutzou that I removed, but forgot to delete the corner card for.
At 26:49, there's a slight error where I accidentally show an entrance table screenshot of 0166 instead of 0165 for the Fire Temple.
At 27:18, I forgot to add a corner card for the clip from Exodus which shows the credits warp.
At 32:48, I accidentally said "March" instead of "May".
At 45:02, the date in the corner card reads 07/00/2014 while it should be 07/09/2014.
At 47:42, I said "there's only a 12.5% chance that a deku nut drop will occur from this enemy". I actually should have said "these enemies" rather than "this enemy", because you actually get the opportunity to kill two enemies which cumulatively give you a deku nut drop chance of 12.5%.
At 51:43 onwards, I accidentally wrote 2016 instead of 2017 in the corner cards.
Beyond these small errors, I am very confident that there are no other errors in the video. However, please feel free to let me know if you spot anything and I will add it to this section.

As always, I recommend reading the description. If you notice any errors in the video let me know and I will add it under corrections in the video description. This video is not fully detailed (that would take way too long), nor is it as polished as I would've liked with a few minor issues, but hopefully you will still enjoy it a lot! Please feel free to leave any criticism that I can incorporate into future videos.
I feel that trying to do history and progression at the same time ruined the video because you didn't focus on either well enough.
Ebonmourn I disagree. Its good to explain why these things make it faster. Might have made it a bit long, but its fascinating to see how game design allowed for this kind of speedrun.
A little bit more music would be good! And the ending was indeed a bit rushes but I understand this took a ton of work
Great video, happy to see more speedrunning content!
Pls do 100%. I know itd be alot of work i guess but thatd be so cool. Hundo is such a cool category.
I don't think it's my place to do 100%. I believe that ZFG is considering making a 100% history video at some point and it would be much better done by him.
The fact that you first asked summoning salt if you could use his video concept already deserves a like
Not sure why he did that. He obviously has no ownership of the concept.
@@Uebeltank out of respect for summoning salt. The speedrunning community isnt super large, and summoning salt is known for making content like this. This is essentially treading on summoning salt's territory of content creation, and so asking for permission first, although not fully necessary, can reduce a lot of potential unnecessary drama.
@@VocalMabiMaple respect for Salt is one thing but Uebel is right, saying WR progression concept belongs to him is like saying the concept of speedrunning belongs to Narcissa or like trying to take out trademark on the word "We"
@@shoutplenty Summoning Salt has put in the hours and research when creating videos in this format. He doesn't "own" this WR progression video format, but he originated it and gained respect in the community with his professionalism and hard work with it. Any respectful person with any amount of humility would ask his permission when doing a video of this format.
@@dustinbiester4401 I feel like this WR prog video that predates Salt by 5 months (ua-cam.com/video/pNYZ7OiNvjY/v-deo.html ) speaks louder than any amount of virtue-signalling in a YT comments section lmao
2015:"Ocarina of time is dead at 18,10"
2020: yo lets do a sub 10
one of the few good things to come out of 2020, ACE in OoT
And now it is at 7:13
@@TheDarkMaster90 That’s insane. 20 hour game reduced to 7 minutes.
2021 let's do sub 7
Every time someone say a game is dead it ages badly.
But to be honest I guess when ppl use that expression they actually mean that it's dead *if no new strategies are discovered.*
(which happens all the time 😂)

*Mr. cheese and savestate has entered the chat*
I'm loving this new era of people attempting to find, catalog, and subsequently explain the massive amount of history some of these older games have. I find it so fascinating how these speedruns come to be, and all the discoveries and changes that come along the way, and I hope more people come to realize it as well. Edit: Okay, that last bit is new to me. Wow. What a crazy game. I legitimately thought it was done.
Hey dude! You surprised me with the mention you made me. That young man's name is Ender Garcia, now with the nickname of 3ND4. It is so nice to finally recognized my work on that time on OoT. Thanks for making my day. I'll comment this in some seconds with my masterdiabolo account so you can verify it.
Thanks to Swordless Link for his video version. I love this community so much.
Once again, thank you. You've just made my day.
Greetings from Bogotá, Colombia (Im from Venezuela)
Hey. Im just verifying my account here! Thanks for everything, bro.
That's awesome! Thanks so much for commenting! I remember having to look deep into the internet to find your channel and your original video of the rod stealing glitch. If I remember correctly some other sources incorrectly attributed your discovery to SwordlessLink instead. Truly a heart warming comment.
retro you pretty much did a detective work do pull this vide off, and I admire that.
Btw, sorry for the shitty quality. I'm from Caracas, Venezuela (South América) so basically that webcam was all that a poor guy could affort at that moment. I love being part of the history of this game, since is my favorite game ever. Amazing community and great work! I've even speedrun OoT but I'm not even close to the world record.
Thanks to you a Swordless Link (who saw my video and uploaded his better quality version)
retro yeah, I remember when people started giving the credit to Sworldless, but he actually made an effort to credit me in the video and I appreciate that.
Great work!
Oh hey, it’s you
Yoooooo!
I hope you have an Beautiful Life.
yes, *an* beautiful life.
Are you the guy who got Apollo Legend to kill himself lol

I’m sorry
I’m sad this dude didn’t take off and produce speedrunning content full time. He dropped a handful of bangers that I’ve come back to multiple times over the years. It’d be cool to see a video showing the progression since the making of this video
Right?
His vids are meh at best
At the end of this video he's hoping for a sub 17 minute time in any%
Now we're hoping for sub 7
sub 3
wow this has been so long ago that I completely forgot about that race where I told him to leave skype lmao
really informative video good job retro
I've always heard bits of information about the history of this game from people like zfg and narcissa, but it's nice to see it all put together into a well-made video. Very well researched, explained, and edited!
AverageTreyVG you did a fantastic job on the SMS history too, man.
AverageTreyVG Yeah, the SMS video was great.
AverageTreyVG did u really just call cosmo narcissa lmao
artisticSass yeah that was his name at the time
I think you inspired of lot passionate speedrunners to record and recall the history of their most dedicated games after making that amazing SMS WR history video. It's nice for a newcomer like me to have an idea of how the dark ages of speedrunning was like, and the improvements that have been made since then so that I can learn from it. Or just appreciate the history lesson, either one is just fine. XD
This is amazing! These are my favorite videos right now haha
Ok, dass ist mal völlig Random.
Torje just hit 16:58.
If no new crazy skip is discovered, this is the last minute milestone to have been broken...
He did have a few mistakes, could have got 16.55.
Sum of best segments is 16:42.
@@supergaga1712 It is actually pretty much impossible to get a time on par with sum of best, expecially Torje's sum of best....but then again, we do not get to know till it happens.
Why do people care? What is the point of all of this? Seems like time could be devoted to a more meaningful cause
RunSwanson you could say that about virtually anything. What do you spend your time doing? If the answer isn’t “performing life saving surgeries 7 days a week, free of charge” I’d hazard to guess that you, just like everyone else has things that they enjoy doing - even if those things aren’t the most important or meaningful things they could possibly do.
Some people spend a ton of time speed running video games, some people spend a ton of time figure skating, some people pour all of their time into restoring old cars. It’s just a hobby. It doesn’t have to be important to the rest of the world.
@@kylestewart4444 Life saving surgeries (free of charge) is the only morally good time investment? Seems kind of odd
Great video!. Always wondered about why the iQue stopped being used. This must have taken forever to make, very well researched.
It took me just over 2 weeks. Honestly I probably should've waited and put more time in to polish it more, but thanks a lot!
true fact: I killed the iQue
Yeah, like you don't even explain the fastest time to beat Ganon, or the fastest way to slide across the map.
Jrose11 hi
@@mzxrules you mean apple?
Current record is an insane 6min 49s
We REALLY need a part 2
Not knowing anything about the record ahead of time, I immediately Googled the current WR after finishing this video. Wow. It's exactly like the physicists at the the of the 19th century who were trying to be coy, while at the same time announcing that all important physics had been discovered...you know, before superconduction, all of nuclear physics, and before black holes were even theorized.
Thats without beating Ganon The record is 13m10s
@@popjibbletz You don't fight Ganon on Any%
@@LGustavoGugs Because that time you are talking about is just a credits warp which he talks about at around 29:00. They added a "defeat Ganon" category which is what this video is focusing on 2 years ago
I just watched a sub 4 minute run
Thank you for finally making me understand the wrong warp and why it behaves differently in fire temple and the child dungeons with easy to understand graphics of the areas being loaded.
Znernicus ya he did a great job
it's good for a basic understanding, but doesn't explain why you don't get stuck in a cutscene after the wrong warp :)
I've always wanted to do a full video on how wrong warp works, but it's very hard to get everything together in one big picture
Bismuth has a 2 part video going more in depth on wrong warping. Check it out!
@@mzxrules bismuth did a2 part one all about it
@@bitsy__ I know, I collaborated with him on it :)
Hey guys we have this great new idea for improving how you play games-
Twin Galaxies: *BANNED!*
The thing that pisses me off about Twin Galaxies is their stubborn adherence to "no exploits". In the competitive pinball scene, entire strategies are developed around exploits; for a perfect example, look up "Bowen vs the right ramp". This particular game features a cannon on the playfield that is fed from the right ramp. It can be aimed to various features, including the right ramp. You can probably guess where this is leading.
That’s just one of the many reasons it’s considered a joke
Did anyone else notice at 4:56 that he said "it's more like 25,000 hours, I've played this game non stop for 2 years" when there are only 17500 hours in 2 years? What a guy.
He plays with 2 consols at the same time.
@@roydm143 2 counsols doesnt double the hours played silly boi
@@dr.fauci_tortured_n_killed5034 Yes it does, because there are two machines, so once you play 1 hour you multiply by 2 so you get 2 hours. Basic math geeez
I stumbled on this video quite by accident, and even though I've never played through OOT myself and I don't know much about the speedrunning world, I found myself watching the entire thing anyways because it was so interesting! What a fascinating look into the sub-community that must revolve around this sort of thing. I love seeing the way games can be taken apart and broken internally through the most unbelievable means, I'm blown away at how some people even think to do them in the first place. I'll have to check out the rest of your channel, I enjoyed this. :)
Salt would be proud and jealous
Pickled Hitler I don't think he should be jealous. While this is very informative and thorough.. I think salt's content is a lot more refined and entertaining.
I haven't watched many of his videos but I think he has a much different style that overall tries to be more entertaining to a much wider audience. My videos are not refined by any means because I've only made two videos and haven't much of a chance to get good at it. I would really like to make more videos and improve my quality substantially but I struggle to think of video topics.
Should have let salt make this video. He doesn’t sound like he’s reading out loud the whole time.
He's still free to make his own video that you can choose to watch if you want. Sorry you didn't like mine (and fuck you on the side :P).
retro hahahaha
and finally in 2021 a glitch was discovered which warps Link directly from his house to the credits.
Thought I wouldn’t watch it all given the length, but it actually didn’t feel long. Great vid !
Glad you mentionned in the description that it was rushed towards the end because you can def feel it. But that’s okay though, everything else make up for it
I like how you did the progression of finding glitches and warps first and then the world records. I liked that.
I've watched this whole video now the second time, It's just that good. :) thanks for making.👍
nice dragon double flip
I honestly love the history of the speedrun, great video I've already watched this four times casually. Very fun to go down memory lane
I still remember watching 7h long OoT speedruns some 15 years ago, downloading them from SDA.
0002pA holy shit i wouldnt sit down for 7h speedrunning lmao
FreshBeats thats a generational difference
222333aaaaaa yeah, the fact that it used to take 7h to complete but now it takes 17min... WOW!
Dude that brings back good memories, I think I'll watch an old 5 hour run just to forget my troubles
Just watch final fantasy speedruns
"so maybe it's unrealistic to spect any more big discoveries"
Oooooh, how little we knew back then...
Great video. Good to see someone from the UK making content on speedrunning.
THANK you for lowering the volume for the screaming parts.
I remember watching your other video aaaages ago and found it was really good. Glad to see you're still making content. Keep it up! Kind of curious as to what you'll tackle next but I figure these in-depth vids take loads of time so I'm happy to wait. Subscribed.
1 year anniversary for this video and 378k views. Well deserved, this was really good
This video was fantastic! Such an in depth and thorough retrospective! It's fascinating to see the lineage of discoveries this game gave to people, even 20 years later people were still playing the game, and like you said it's almost like it was all by design. I think in may ways this game is still the greatest game of all time, not only because of how revolutionary it was, but because of how perfect or imperfect the programming was that allowed people to do all these things. I think it's beyond a work of art, it's a thing of beauty.
Good video man! Only been watching speedrunning in general since ~2012 and OoT any% was my gateway drug. This was really informative, keep up the good work :)
TSA left his mark splicing his runs LUL
Wow, this was a great rundown. The kind of depth and quality I'd expect from a SS progression video, and you're awesome for being so respectful to Narcissa as to run everything by her first.
waluigiwithachainsaw at least it works. What does not being a dick have to do with politics anyways?
waluigiwithachainsaw low effort troll. Sad. You could do better.
Spencer Fowler that's one of the most original insults I've read in a long time. Kudos o3o
And now TSA has gone on to win every category in every game ever after he changed his name to TAS
Your explanation of the wrong warp glitch was PERFECT! Ive never understood it until now! Thank yo so much!
Great video! This must have taken forever to make! Props to you dude I enjoyed every minute, watching some amazing history of one of my favorite games!
+horsedude5000 Thanks! To be honest, it didn't take that long, it was about two weeks. However, this was more of a precursor to give me experience for a bigger project I'm now working on that will take quite some time.
Suddenly that clip of the guy screaming in rage about getting a deku nut after falling into water makes sense
BA requires bottle on B and bottle on B causes RBA. i still don't know how they found BA first. i wish RBA was BA and BA was RBA lol
What's the difference anyways?
BA is getting any items on B from bottle on B. RBA is manipulating inventory with bottle on B.
Speak English please
sva !
A.bit late here I guess, but oh well.
BA (Bottle adventure) let's you put items on your sword button. So, pressing B could let you pull out bombs, a bow, deku sticks, etc.
RBA is when you get items you shouldn't from having a bottle on B. So, if you had RBA set up and were still using the normal ocarina, you could use RBA to just replace it with the ocarina of time. You could also just give yourself bombs, bombchus, etc.
I absolutely love WR progression videos, they're hella interesting! Thanks for adding OOT to the pile.
Great video. I saw how long it was at first and figured I'd skip through some bits but it flew by and I was surprised to see I had watched the whole thing! Well done.
Good video! Love seeing names like Kazooie and AKA in 2017
I have been waiting for summoning salt to do this and you made my wish come true. Thank you good sir.
You sir, deserve my like as it is clear that you have done much research and have a lot of knowledge about this topic. Bravo, retro, bravo.
I actually love this type of content on youtube. I feel like showing how the community has come together is a really cool thing, great video man!
Excellent video!!! I was around to see Narcissa (Cosmo) set WRs but have been a bit out of touch with route updates since then, but your thorough explanations cleared things right up. Cheers
Torje at 17.01 now. Sub 17 *IS* coming.
Great video man !
And then ACE happened and sub 7 has been done.
Dude I respect you so much for researching all this to find all the sources. You truly are a legend sir!
This is SO INTERESTING! I love finding out the history of the breaking of a game over time. It's like this hidden history that only a few people know about. I'm glad there are more youtubers making this kind of content.
In this video I think I would have discussed Lens of Truth as being the first major skip, but also, the Kokiri's Emerald was done away with too easily -- you need to find Forest Escape first! But on the whole I think this is a pretty informative video, yeah. Anyway, the story of how I theorized Ganondoor gets told every now and again but... nobody asks for it from my perspective. You're getting it anyway.
The Deku Boss->Deku Tree wrong warp to Tower Collapse first intrigued me the very day Wrong Warp was found, before anybody really understood how the glitch worked. I was the first to test where that entrance led to, setting FW up at the top of the main room, wrong warping into blackness, and walking backward to see Ganondorf drop dead in front of me. So I found this wrong warp particularly interesting.
Some months before Wrong Warp was found I asked Runnerguy why, in 100%, the Odd Mushroom Timer was used only to skip the cutscene in Forest Temple and not in the Deku Tree. He said it was because it crashed, I asked why, and he said it was because "it's OoT." It wasn't until a few months after Wrong Warp that I remembered this conversation and realized it was probably crashing due to a failed wrong warp. So I began thinking about how else I might warp away from a blue warp, which included things like failing timers, playing songs, or falling OoB. When I tried the Eyeball Frog timer, I guess I timed it wrong, and it crashed on me. It would have wrong warped to Lon Lon, which is credits if done out of Fire, so if it hadn't crashed I might have called it mission accomplished right there. The entrance table at the time was not particularly helpful in determining which loading zone was which, but yes, I was pouring over it and trying to spot anything that could be helpful. (Mzxrules would probably be mad if I didn't at least mention that he helped me understand how Wrong Warp worked, so here I am, mentioning that.)
Anyway, ZFG's last day of any% attempts rolls around and I didn't want to happen to him what happens to everybody else after they finish with a game -- a week later a huge new skip gets found -- so I starting telling Sockfolder about my ideas. I get to the end of the discussion and, trying to think of more ways to warp way from a blue warp, I ask, "Is there any way to leave a room that we haven't thought of?" And that's when it hits me how you leave a room -- through a door. Genius, right? Who would have thought? The implications hit me immediately because I already knew the result if it would actually work. I was really excited at this moment, though Sock didn't seem all that enthused, lol; I was always asking him to test dumb stuff (and still do). I tried a dozen or so times to just pull it off in real time with no idea how to time it properly, but I got fed up with that and finally convinced Sock to try give it a try. As they say, "Ganon's back, baby!"
In the next day or two, more of my wrong warp ideas were tested and expanded upon. For example, maxx pointed out that if you bottle dupe over your trade item, an expiring timer will reload your last entrance rather than taking you away somewhere else, asking "Does that help?" I'm like, what do you mean "Does that help?" Of course that helps! So the timer wrong warp Deku->Bongo was found, along with the timer Ganonless out of Fire. Since then, more and more crazy wrong warps continue to be found, even just a few days ago, they figured out a way to Wrong Warp from the Silver Gauntlets cutscene for the first time. There is potential for an even more busted Wrong Warp to be found some day, though it's hard to say how it would be done. Like, if your death animation were just a bit faster, you could get access to the title screen save file in "Beta Quest" mode, where playing Nocturne would take you immediately to Ganon. Or, if you could somehow get control during the Epona's Song cutscene, you could warp straight into the credits as child. But the likelihood of those things not only being found, but also not requiring much in the way of setup, I think makes them unlikely to obsolete the current route. Then again, "it's OoT," so anything is possible.
OK? Alright then.
+canadianstickdeath I didn't really count Lens of Truth as a major skip as it's really just memory. And yeah, I definitely could've included forest escape, but I was trying to make the video somewhat streamlined without too much detail.
Anyway, thanks for the info, it's very interesting to hear the personal accounts of people who discovered glitches like this. IIRC I saw you going back and forth with mzxrules on TASVideos trying to understand Wrong Warp in 2012 when I was doing some research.
Endlessly fascinating, these old games. You sound like someone pouring over the tomes of a lost civilization, trying to understand it and find their treasure. Or like a guy with weird hair in front of a massive dart board, red strings and all, coming to realize that the government really is lizards. What a unique property of this medium, that there can be so much depth to it in ways that were never intended.
you're damn right I'd be mad Kappa b
I was probably the only one that was part of the community that had a decent grasp on the concept since I did lots of testing before wrong warp was discovered proper, but I definitely learned a hell of a lot more once I stopped "black box" testing things in MHS and started hacking the game properly.
What is this, a script for a Pannenkoek Video?
Dude, props to you for actually asking summoning salt if it's cool to do this episode. A lot of ppl are knocking off his idea and your the first one I heard shout him out
A tip of my hat to you sir
Honestly this showcasing of the veritable autopsy of OoT is one of the best videos on UA-cam. It could've only been possible with a game this famous with a large fanbase of brilliant people, a game new to 3D, and just a whole lot of luck with some of those possibilities.
Speed run histories are unbelievably fascinating and it's great to know about the giants on whose shoulders the current fastest times stand on.
The IQue freezes for the Deku Nut Base Item freeze glitch, and I assume it only freezes for the diving method of the freeze glitch? If not, the IQue can get a much better time. Maybe some workaround with the IQue can be found anyway.
I love the summoning salt eps, but you really went above and beyond in researching this, even finding old MTV news articles! Well done
...And then ACE happened.
Why does 2007 look like it was 10 years ago...
...wait
Jacopo Barberis haha 😂
This was so nice to watch, so much nostalgia, great work man !
Wow I'm amazed how well you explain everything! Well done, enjoyed every second of it.
id love an updated version of this someday, as things are still being discovered and we’ve had to split the categories into “any%” and “defeat ganon” thanks to the finding of SRM.
Damn I remember watching Narcissa's 18:10 run like a day after it dropped. I had such a hard time comprehending what the hell I just saw. That run introduced me to speedrunning. Great video!
You mean Cosmos run since it was Cosmo at that time. He even says Cosmo in this video, not Narcissa
As of March 31st, 2019, Torje has brought the record down to 17:01, if anyone is curious.
I was, thank you, we're so close to sub 17!
Update: the new world record is 7:34!!
great vid. I have many memories of posting in the OoT thread on the SDA forums glitchhunting way back in 2008, glad to see many of those same names featured here
Great walkthrough of the history. A close friend of mine is really into Speedruns, but I knew nothing about OOT speedruns going in to this video. It was incredibly accessible and informative.
Where has retro gone, he hasn’t uploaded in like 2 years
Working on his speedrunning game.
Absolutely amazing video. Thank you for all the time and work you put into this.
Great video, thank you so much for making it!! I am a longtime Zelda fan and recently stumbled onto the world of speed running and have really been enjoying watching videos. You should consider making an updated Part 2 2020 edition with all the recent changes!
Amazing videos, love how well put and informative this is. Keep up the good work man, best of wishes on your UA-cam channel. You're an amazing curator and the community need more people like you.
The most hilarious thing about TSA getting found out. Is the fact even his segmented Wind Waker run turned out to be spliced. He claimed he didn't have the ability to capture everything in one recording, but that example undeniably proved he was a perpetual cheater.
Mom: we are leaving in 20 minutes
Touji: ok just let me beat oot real quick
Amazing video man, you went back to the roots, all the way to where speedrunning of this game currently is at. You explained everything perfectly and i have learned a lot. Keep up the work man!!!
Amazing video!!! I learned alot about the speed run, great job with the visual and commentary.
Quality vid, its the first OOT one I have seen which takes the time to explain the glitches in simple terms. I like Summoning Salts vids but they are dry without looking at the interesting bits; the glitches and optimizations. I don't speed run but I like watching about them, but the problem is the glitches and evolution of them are not explained. I would love to see more vids like this which look more on the optimisations than just the world record times. Good job.
Wow. What an amazing video. Watched it from start to end and never got bored while watching it. You should upload more often if you can. Your videos are wonderful

I've been hooked on different games speedrun history.
I've stopped watching Oot Any% runs around 2015, and this video explained all the new cool strats invented since then really well. Great video!
very well done, inspired me to dust off my old copy of OoT and remember how awful I am at the game. lol
I have to say thank you for this Video. Even if i dont really in to speedrunning, I love the World Record History and Progression Videos.
I would speedrun but I dont have the time to dedicate to one game. I don't know how i will change but it is still a dream to speedrun The Fast and the Furious (2006) for the PS2.
We will see how life goes.
pandavova You can do it man! Hope life goes well and allows it!
You should make it happen! I think you’ll do great at it!
I’m a huge fan the summoning salt channel. I dig that you’ve taken up the world record progression premise. Keep it going.
This video is great, and I can't wait to see more like it. I love the combination of information as well as jokes in this format. Keep it up retro!
This is some incredible work right there, cannot imagine the amount of time that you've put up on this.
really great video mate, loved everything about it
Retro, youre very good at this. You and Summoning Salt both are great speedrun historians. Thanks for making these videos!
Amazing content, watched multiple times, hope you continue to make videos, awesome
I've lost count of how many times I've watched this video now 😂 it's just so good
Sad to see what happened to Cosmo tbh, used to enjoy watching runs of this game back in the day. Great video dude, very comprehensive.
...not sure if transphobic asshole or just well-meaning dunce

Once the transition happened she became a huge asshole. Changing all of her content she streams and banning people and claiming they are against her now and her transition because they unsubscribed because they didn't like the new content. I believe she came to her senses however and now starting what she (I believe atleast) enjoys playing games like smash and Zelda again. Not sure if she does runs though. And apparently she was money begging for a bit though.
This video is amazing, what a work clearly presented. Good job.
man this video was abolutely amazing. I was just looking for something in the background while I cleaned but I was just glued to the screen thanks to the magic of your explanation! Thank you for the great hour of entertainment
I remember the notorious 18:10 when Narcissa said "Any% is dead" one of the very first speed runs I watched, I'm happy its not dead and sub-17 is on the edge of reality right now...
Narcissa was Cosmo at that time, so you mean Cosmo said
I am that card game speedunner
Thank you for making the video I almost made myself. Like you, watching SummoningSalt's history videos inspired me to start thinking of an OoT history video, but then today I got the thought to just search to see if it had been done in great detail, and it was. So thanks for basically making my video for me, saves me time XD.
Awesome video. Incredibly interesting and informative. I remember my first experience of speedrunning was those Cheeseoman videos shown early on, and I've been following this category for several years, but there were still tricks in this video I didn't know much about.
2017: 17 MINUTES WONT GO DOWN!!!
2021: look at how stupid we were
not enlightened might be a more accurate word Lol
To think that a 5 hour run would be absolutely broken into a much, MUCH slower time. That's my favorite thing with these world record progression videos, seeing the ridiculous improvements made over time. Funny enough this game's history reminds me WW and it's barrier skip glitch. Incredible to say the least.
Slower?
Amazing video sir! I've always wanted a documentary of OoT as a speedgame, and this fulfills that on every level.
this is a really good video man, nice work
Amateseru just got the WR in any% with a 7:09.850. Congrats Amateseru for getting a sub 7:10. I wonder if a sub 7 is possible or a 7:05?
Thank you ! With the current strats it is definitely not possible to reach such a time. I'd say the absolute human limit is 7:07 right now. Maybe if you go for the god RNG (which has 1/512 to happen) you could even get 7:06. Now, while the god RNG can happen (it happened to me multiple times actually) you'd have to trust your luck and go for the best bushes right away, not even trying to farm the bushes on the left side.
@@Amateseru it's crazy that most of the run is the opening cutscenes now. lol Started with 6 hours, we're down to almost under 7 minutes. Absolutely nuts. gg's. The future category now is 100%! I think that category can reach sub 3 eventually.
When I was 11 years old, I finished Sonic The Hedgehog in twenty minutes. No glitches.
I tried again and again and again later when I was in my teens and I could never even get close. My teenage record was about 45 minutes. Some glitches.
To this day I have no idea how in the universe I managed to do this often as an 11 year old, but Never again later on in life.
if it was in-game time you’d be placed in about 46th-48th in the world or if it was real time you’d place in 8th-17th holy hell young you was insane
Well it's simple you imagined it, it never happened
That was a impressively well-done and informative video! OOT is one of the most fascinating speedgames out there, and this video shows just why.
The story of OOT is truly amazing. Thank you for making the great video.
