Thats because in science you try everything to check what happens and then write it down.

Carl once said in a stream/video that someone should make a troll level where there is a random spike at the beginning and if you ever fell for a troll you would have to backtrack and die on that spike. I'm so glad someone actually did it here!!

[@topsecret1837]

I remember that!

[@Sc4r4byte]

The second time he died on that spike, that moment rushed back to me. Every future death on that spike was fulfilling a destiny.

[@SmugLookingBarrel]

I love how the gravestone at 11:37 says 1987-2020. Seems like even the editor hasn't processed that it's 2021 yet.

[@HyLo-rule]

Carl's editor is great. I love any video where the editor just adds their own thoughts into the video

It's so like Carl to miss the "10 years" writing for the entire level xD Indeed nothing was learned these 10 years.

[@bendystrawz2832]

In his defense I had to rewind the video to read it myself xD

[@ammondmilk5567]

Why did the level say "10 years of learning nothing"? Mario Maker didn't last for 10 years yet.

11:37 Hell of a way to learn Carl died last year

[@tparadox88]

Also that he's actually older than me when I would've guessed like five years younger.

[@TheMongral]

I absolutely love that the section starting at 15:21 is literally something Carl asked someone to do in a troll level ages ago, come to life. A Section where, in order to die after screwing up, you must go all the way back to the very beginning (of the section in this case), in order to kill yourself on a lone spike at the very start (of the section). Troll Perfection. Especially after the reveal that the entire first screen doubles as an anti-softlock to make the return trip a nightmare.

I'm considering his other request - a vertical sub-level where a full floor to ceiling section is just mechanics to keep you going up and down the shaft for a while before finally killing you, and several ways to stuck into the shaft in the level.

[@MadMagicianGaming]

"It doesn't look like you can key death from any of them so far after you get the coin" He says after literally just dying from falling down a pit after collecting the previous coin

[@seanwilkinson7431]

My favorite reaction in this game is when people who have been playing it forever are thirty seconds into a Level and they don't see [ - - - - - ] in the top-right corner, and they suddenly go "oh! It's a red coin level!"

[@superplex25]

Okay, Luigi shaking his head like he's saying "No" is just golden. It's like he's telling us "No, I can't climb that vine" lol

[@Jallorn]

Carl: Dies with red coin unsaved. Also Carl: "It doesn't look like you can key death with any of them so far."

[@theopoldthegamer4284]

It may have been a while, but a keydeath is when you die after all of the key coins have been collected Key coins save your progress, but the key you get when all of them are collected does _not_

[@Jallorn]

@@theopoldthegamer4284 Yes, which, if you can die before saving a coin means you can key death.

That entire section with the spike at the beginning of it is something Carl asked for

[@bendystrawz2832]

Cosmic troll: Red coin level where there's a key door at the end of each section. _Every_ red coin is the safety coin. Each door leads to a slightly different version of the same troll that all lead to the end.

The spike area was absolutely god tier.

[@carpetclimber4027]

I don't understand why Nintendo doesn't add a troll tag where you are allowed to do more shenanigans than in normal levels. They also shouldn't be able to be added to runs. But then again, Nintendo are so lazy, so I guess the question is rhetorical. It can also be because they are upset because their crappy programming is so easy to exploit and manipulate.

[@clockworkharvester2663]

Carl really tried going in the troll section key door using his red coin key. I wish that had been the end of the section, because he would have gone “YES I got out” and then paused as he suddenly realized he didn’t have a key for the ending door and had essentially keydeathed himself without the death, and there would be much “I’m so stupid dude”.

16:04 Had a similar thought where the key door by the safety coin is actually a red herring. And after you get all the other red coins, you get stuck down a second path with another real key door that leads to the end.m. Which means you had to get the safety coin in the beginning as there is no chance to get it at the end.

I'm amazed there isn't a troll level that requires you to grab the safety coin before a challenge room and entity limit lets you win.

[@deyesed]

I like how the SMB2 hint door showed a seesaw and path to the left and you kept going up and around.

[@MstrKipper]

I really want Carl to try and out smart the level creators one time by timing out in one of the obvious key death areas one time just to see all of their reactions lol. Like at this point it's one of the oldest / most obvious troll set ups

[@SeminoleRail]

Isn't timing out with the key still a key death?

[@IamTristanC]

new troll idea. using entity limit magic, getting the safety coin early will soft lock you on your next death.

I love how Carl is basically aging in reverse. I swear he looks younger than 10 years ago.

[@chufei123yeye2]

I was really sorry for the creators because I cheesed this level the first time I played it. I went to the muncher section first and I noticed that the red coin could be skipped. Therefore, I skipped that and waited for 500s at CP2. Then I got in the car and touched the flag. I didn't went to any other sections and I didn't know what Carl still haven't learned(characters above the car). Fortunately I can watch this video to know that. That was a fantastic level and good job creators, but sadly I cheesed.

[@madgritop9774]

I think it would be really funny if there was a red coin level that could detect if you grabbed the safety coin early, and, if you did, the entire level is infinitely easier with no dangerous trolls, only for the player to be forced to keydeath at the flagpole
