Hi! I'm BaerTaffy, but people usually call me Baer. You can be people, too! The main focus of my channel is gameplay walkthrough videos, or "Let's Play" videos as they're more commonly known. I also host a series called "Baer-ly Played", where I do short and sweet game reviews. I'll also do game previews on occasion, and you can find me live streaming almost every day over on Twitch! Thanks for watching my stuff, and consider subscribing if you like what you see! Love you.

[@deathboy1248]

Shout out to the guy who actually gave him the idea.

[@brianpetruska4285]

Fun fact: The reason you are not able to ghost olmec and only Yama is because the ghost would spawn during the cut-scene of the Olmec fight and kill you before you are able to move your character. I believe the ghost still spawned prematurely during the Yama fight as well but since spawning in the center of the boss level the ghost is unable to reach you. Since patch 1.4 of the PC version, you are now able to ghost Olmec and Yama as the ghost does not spawn until after the cut-scene.

[@CatistianGaming]

Brian Petruska The issue is that he DID ghost Olmec in a different movie.

[@RetroJam98]

Wasn't it someone in the Twitch chat that suggested to ball-and-chain the moai head?

[@CloissDylki710]

41:23 Actually in the beginning of the game, it gives a vague description of how whenever you die, you wake up at the entrance of the mines. I quote, "It's like death itself has lost it's way down here," Yang's journal. -Cloiss

44:00 for Breaklunky.

[@finn_underwood]

41:56 is about where the magic starts

[@piratapequeno]

So this is the genesis of the solo eggplant run...

[@ChellsVoiceActor]

Ball & Chain? More like ballin' chain AMIRITE

[@RaiOshynnCat]

This was the greatest. The anticipation of watching the whole run made it much better. I'm looking forward to your future shenanigans.

[@sofusjejlskovbrandt1254]

crushing the moi/moeye/ i dont even know how its spelled Head like that... thats how you get the eggplant to hell

[@ilikepiebadly999]

I thought you could get hired help to carry it :s

[@sofusjejlskovbrandt1254]

oh... i guess you can do that too...

[@jakubSwaps]

+Sofus Jejlskov “Toasty” Brandt You still need to destroy the Moai head. The hired help doesn't revive in the head with you.

[@xxPrisonersxx]

The ball and chain didn't come back because when you killed yourself on the ice caves it still thought you were dead. Then when you crushed it, it still thought you were dead

[@usmcdeguzman]

I saw this on the best speed run breaks found. And that was before i started watching the NLSS crew now its all coming full circle.

[@Goddessllias]

Best part, He made the Cobra.

[@st0mp331]

Did baer accidently find the missing link in the full eggplant run

[@st0mp331]

He did lol

[@fractalgem]

I've heard about this eggplant run, what's the history on it? Did someone, like, look at the code and see "eggplant vs final boss=instadead boss"' only nobody could figure out how to get it there until this guy?

[@mattmarsh1566]

fractalgem The Xbox 360 version came first, and people knew about the eggplant but thought it was just a strange easter egg- no one found a purpose. Then the PC version came out and people were able to look into it more and some guy found two previously unseen sprites of the final boss colored purple with some file name including the word eggplant. Then someone used hacks to show that throwing the eggplant at Yama immobilizes him and gives him 1 health, but no one had legitimately got it there. Various people did it on multiplayer (the eggplant was probably originally intended for multiplayer given that everything bought is wrapped like a mystery box to sacrifice for the eggplant, and it should be theoretically impossible to get it all the way to hell solo, unless you got INSANELY lucky on 4-2 and got both a shop with a mystery box and an altar, which is basically impossible). Anyway then this came along and people figured that this can be used to get the eggplant and the hedjet, on a solo run. The last remaining problem was getting it from 4-1 to 4-2 when you would normally have to carry the scepter. The very clever solution was to unlock the robot character from the mothership and use him to carry the scepter for you. The first person to successfully complete a solo eggplant run was Bananasaurus Rex, you can find the entire run on his channel

[@jakeygoat946]

matt marsh Actually, a hired hand can bring an eggplant past the Head, just like a second player in multiplayer can.

[@SadisticNiles]

@@jakeygoat946 The problem with hired hand is RNG

[@SaintHonest]

29:10 It is 2018, and I can confirm that was, and still is best idea!

2018 anyone? Still coming up on recommended for me...

[@lorth9887]

Man there is a comment about 2018 and how far away it is but damm here we are now and still watching. Great job bear

[@FrenchyLP]

So many videos Baer! Im diggin this!

[@soniclovesamygirl]

Baer's just like: Lol you wanna glitch up my yama run with yo teleports and shits? Fuck that I got the B&C and I gonna break yo ass

[@falsedragon7104]

Oh, shit. That end was heart breaking..

[@WipeOutROKO]

Breaklunky.

[@PorterGunn]

so glad i was a part of this stream

[@kefka40]

20:05 that conversation, complete with maniacal Bisnap laugh, made me lose it.

[@Muscu666]

Like Bisnap said I think that dying with the ankh resets Kali's anger, so when you destroyed the ball after that, it didn't come back. I think that I saw a post about this on reddit some days ago.

[@Mezchano]

Baer said on the other video... the diamond becomes a hedjet when you sacrifice yourself with the ankh.

[@MistXGames]

Now we just need to find a way to take an Eggplant into the City of Gold and a Single Player Eggplant Yama run is possible.

[@demonangeljessie]

This is the greatest thing ever

[@Notsuzpicious]

Just made it to the city of gold for the first time, attempting to go to hell and fight Yama. Forgot the necronomicon. RIP DREAMS!

[@aMondayMorning]

If Derek and Andy actually planned this, that would literally make me shit my pants at how awesome that is.

[@adiener]

I ended up with a ball and chain after destroying two altars, even though Kali was happy with me at the time. I destroyed it with a falling block in the ice caves and it didn't come back. So, it seems as though the check to attach a new ball and chain to you at the beginning of a level is based on Kali's current anger, not on whether you've ever had one before. If a death resets her anger, this all makes sense.

[@jfein7273]

Well, it's 2018 now and that was still the best idea

[@zapranoth]

My god, You are the greatest man.

[@davovovovovovo]

13:19. Best. Altar. Ever.

[@davovovovovovo]

I just meant it's the best instance involving an altar I've ever seen.

[@LegendMayne]

9:18 BAER Y U NO EGGPLANT?

[@AGrayPhantom]

Whoever suggested to do that in chat deserves some credit! :-D

[@darkness2101]

The third time you destroy the altar will make the Ghost come immediately at the start of EVERY levels (including Olmec, you'll die during the cut-scene lol).

[@Hyrseht]

Go to 13:30, 15:38, 21:00, 42:00, for awesome Ball and Chain shenanigans

[@etaidade3983]

And thus the eggplant run was born.

[@butterbunni1]

Why did you blow up the altar at 9:22? You could have done an eggplant run!

[@Ryan-jg6tq]

+Phantom Foxy A solo eggplant run did not exist back then, as you couldn't take the eggplant through the Moai Head. Baer accidentally found a way to make solo eggplant possible in this video, however.

[@LysFlowerful]

+Ryan Douglas ur cute. Ever heard of Bananasaurus rex ?

[@mrfacemanguy]

+Lys Flower that wasnt solo he used an ai partner he found. what he means is by yourself with not help

[@mrfacemanguy]

+Mrfacemanguy i guess its technically solo but thats not what he meant

[@Ramzuiv]

Lys Flower: This was before Banana did his eggplant run. In fact, this is when they discovered the strat Banana used

[@nhudson32]

Bisnap inspires lots of breaking!

[@McQueeb]

You know what? I think this is intended. You're the first person to discover it! What are you going to name it? Claim it for all of Baerville, and then draw me like one of your French ball and chains.

[@thehumanpuppetmaster6089]

42:26 HAHAHAHAHAHAHA that is so amazing you managed to get out of the moa head and keep the ball and chain oh and btw u can get back into the moa head after that happens

The door is inside, the hedjet is not.You can teleport in using the teleporter, but instead of the hedjet, there will be a diamond.At least thats what the wiki says.

[@danielinzunza3716]

Always entertaining.

I just happened to tune in like two minutes before the MAGIC yesterday, so lucky! This thing has immense potential, allowing stuff like eggplanting yama!?

[@xxPrisonersxx]

You sir, have gotten yourself in the position where no one can ever like your comment again. Nicely Played

[@xSPNz]

ball and chin breaks the hedge holy crap !!!

[@JarryKrist]

Ok, so 1. I didn't get the headjet when I broke into the head, because I didn't break the block it was inside. 2. If you didn't know, if you break the 3rd alter, you basically instantly die at the start of the Olmec fight ;-; Found out the hard way.

[@aMondayMorning]

Yeah, but you can crush it with one of those falling platforms to get rid of it.

[@TheGreatLegend9000]

02:24 WHAT THE FUCK OMG THAT IS SICK!!

[@Squaguna8]

you are really damn good at this!

[@sampochw]

Seems like that is it to be honest, going to try this ASAP!

[@mylifeisablur]

at 12 33 you could have just placed the idol down at the shop and got the money that way.

[@Jindo1]

It's bigger than that Baer, it's large.

[@SilentMonk111]

I just tried it without sacrificing myself and it totally works! Except you don't get the hadget, but you get a diamond instead... So you can use the ball and chain to break through the Statue but you only get the hadget if you actually sacrifice yourself!

[@RangedApskit]

Could smeone explain what exactly happened and what he was trying to do?

[@theundead0624]

Originally he was attempting to ghost Yama, which is achieved by angering Kali 3 times (assuming no sacrifices) and perma-spawning a ghost, this only works if the alter is destroyed after Olmec because perma-spawning one before hand gets you killed in the Olmec cutscene. After two kali alters you get the ball and chain, which upon dying teleported Baer out of the moai head, which someone in the twitch chat then gave him the idea to break the moai head (which is indestructible) with the ball and chain. It worked and was amazing.

[@RangedApskit]

THanks!

[@ShadowMan1NeLL1]

the one thing i found in spelunky is that the ghost can be hit by UFO shots, its really wierd

[@zwyn3288]

[@Its__Jake]

I come from The State of Northernlion, Jsmith Town. We come in peace.

[@curo.]

I'm guessing that dying does reset your Khali anger, but you got to keep the Ball and Chain because of the glitch that pulled you out of the Moai Head. Once you destroyed the Ball, the code that respawns the ball did not trigger because your favour had reset. I still have no idea what the eggplant is, so I'll keep watching 'til I find out :)

[@electricmouse6382]

Its 2018.. 5years later

[@disorder1111]

Are you sure the hedjet and door aren't just inside the blocks in the head? Triggering the ankh destroys the blocks and frees the hedjet. If you just destroy the blocks with the ball and chain, maybe you would get the hedjet without triggering the ankh?
