This was cool. You more than perhaps any speedrunner remind me of a professional athlete in that you have specialized your entire life. Everybody is familiar with those clips of tiger woods playing golf at 4 yrs old, you just play smb3 all day every day like it's your job because it is. In the old days great athletes whom played a lot of sports were the goats. Then in the 80s a few great athletes specialized in one sport, not just the athletics, but also intellectualism of it. They became the goats. You not only are the best at one tiny little thing in this world, but your so good you have brought some awareness among the population to this little corner of the internet.

Really interesting history and amazing improvements from various runners. Highly appreciate the personal life info which makes MFP records all the more significant. Johnny Millennium is the most open book of any gamer (also in Canada), so it was cool that Mitch also revealed some inside details. The press pause / sun hit facial expressions were too funny, but i could also feel the pain. Total respect to your dedication in perfecting SMB3 speedrunning and extra credit for naturally being entertaining 😄 💯

Isn't it insane how 1 decision can completely change the path of your life, like what if you decided to not take the chance and still to washing dishes and as much as you hated it you took the safe route and it changed everything, I mean you would prob still be a happy person but you wouldn't be the streamer we all know and love. I think about that in my own life a lot, messes with you head sometimes when you think about something you could've did but didn't or vice versa, according to string theory there are infinite timelines that diverge with every choice we make and every possible outcome has played out in some way in one of those timelines.. damn... ok my head hurts lol! I'm glad you decided to completely follow your dream and make it a reality, not many people can say that. 😋👍
