W music simply

[@zeldaholich6436]

I can't wait until Simply gets 120 star WR again so that we can see him react to his own run.

[@benignatovich7178]

Never gonna see the day

[@videosdebunked6124]

It’s funny bc that would actually happen

[@tanmanharris4820]

“Mario speed runner reacts to pro Twitch reactor getting WR in 120 star” that would be some good content right there

[@wesgrubbs8437]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but... He's not a legitimate runner anymore.

[@ayoitscat]

@@wesgrubbs8437 this just isn't true, he still does attempts all the time

[@Michael-kp4bd]

I don’t think I’ve seen a single Benji run or even stream clip. Props to this man snagging the WR. The skill level is incomprehensible to me

[@twig7219]

Most of the big SM64 streamers who hold or held WR blew up only *after* getting their first WR. Even now there are plenty of WR contenders for various categories being slept on bc they havent got it yet.

[@timbos468yt4]

steam.

[@Michael-kp4bd]

@@timbos468yt4 lol thx, fixed the typo

[@zakkwyldesociety]

I’ve tuned in for a few where he was on WR pace and messed up really close to the end - even though it was his first record he’s a beast and has been threatening for a while now ☺️

[@chanceneck8072]

Kind of like Slipperynips back in the day... 😅🤭 Came out of nowhere, never heard of him before But now I did I'm glad....

[@Keyourasa]

simply at this point is kinda like an m64 archive channel, its honestly the only way to know for sure what day a wr was achieved :)

[@Ayeces8s]

The contrast between the perfectly executed ttc100 into getting double thwomped at 42:52 fucking sent me.

[@nottootall4120]

Witnessing Simply's glow up in real time is astounding

[@EmilPlays1998]

I thought this was dream

[@mering5298]

Another inspirational reaction from Simply. No one watches gameplay like him. Truly amazing content 🥶🥶🥶

[@mysteriousghosts935]

These new glasses make simply look so good for real

[@matgeo_]

I like the large amount of sm64 facts and trivia shared by simply in this video, very nice and fun and interesting!

[@phiz2650]

I like how the chat thought that benji’s mic was behind him. Its tricky cause his pop filter looks like the right side of his headset lol

[@JaxsonGalaxy]

Lol, the pop filter on his mic does blend with his headphones. I got the illusion to looks both ways to me, that's funny.

[@aaronmoravek]

This is a masterpiece, I've never seen so many moments, good moves, and non-stop reacting. Simply did a perfect react video. Congratulations Simply!

[@noraairobas7804]

I cant believe how people can wake up and get on twitch for the whole day lol

[@dreamsifallin]

I can't believe people wake up and not do sh!t all day..

[@IkEisawesome7]

It really is crazy just how effortlessly funny Simply is. Such an entertaining fella

[@natediggitydog8]

I get most excited about a new SM64 world record cuz I know I get to watch it with Simply’s commentary ❤

[@googlekopfkind]

I would cry tears of joy if simply gets the new WR in 120 stars again

[@hectorg5809]

simply my man, loved the video. looking forward to the next one for some harder reactions

[@thealterlion7163]

True happiness for Simply is seeing a new mario 64 world record dropped since it's free content for both twitch and youtube

[@williamwhite8667]

I think stared at the mic half the run until I finally realized the black part was part of the mic and not his other ear piece

[@doctorlion]

I totally thought chat was right about his microphone, until I realized that part of the microphone simply likes like his headset

[@WintendoGaming]

Outstanding. Impeccable. The run was good too.

[@CoreReactorMusic]

Every time simply uploads an angel gets its wings

[@MAGunboxing]

His Mic DO be lookin behind the headset

[@Jstephan915]

The top tier react content

[@mracorn2669]

your chat brought up his head being in front of his mic and now i cant unsee it

[@PressAAlex]

so hyped for the new song. good shit Simply

[@huukkeli22]

Great job by benji!

[@shaddymate4095]

Simply perfect reaction content

[@CombustibleL3mon]

Hey Simply, I watch your KZbin content and wanted to let you know that I nominated you for Speedrunner of the year in The Streamer Awards (even though I haven't gotten round to watching you on Twitch). I think it's great how committed you are to producing entertaining, high quality speedrun content. Thanks!

[@adrianhdz138]

18:12 China // Vietnam Flag

[@undeadfury55]

24:52 downstairs going into upstairs for 70 stars is crazy!

[@fussybussy4944]

Hyped for the music channel! Dedo is a bop

[@selfaware7617]

unadulterated means complete, not diluted or mixed the mic filter looks like the right side of his headphones so it actually is trippy seeing the mic seemingly in the back and in the front of his head

[@slayerment]

Can't unsee the mic behind his head 😂😂

[@brawldude2656]

I'm a simple man I only watch new runs if simply reacts to them

[@therockafella6319]

In just 1 hour, Simply’s reaction has more than 4x the views of the actual record video

[@Memelord9001]

You could say, he's Simply the best uwu

[@olivergarcia4259]

I'm new the community and I like watching him cause he does a good job at explaining the hard stuff. As a newb, the pros make it look so easy that I think i could do it lol

[@dreamlink3042]

Have u seen the new 3D platforming game Bolt Bot Screwy Viruses? It looks similar to the old Mario 3D games.

[@fchaboom8522]

8:12 When you look closely, Benji ghosts through the bottom left yellow coin in the ring

[@StrawbunnySystem]

Which came first, the mic or the headphones?

[@masonlitowsky]

I've been waiting since Sunday for this video when I randomly checked the leaderboards and saw "today" as a WR for 70. Liam was right, Simply is gonna get more views on this than the actual run. I didn't watch it either lpl

[@danielmilgrom5192]

This run could’ve chopped so much more time it’s crazy

[@dilliedAlly]

10:00 the casual punch cancel wtf

[@wyattdegroot417]

How much time does the TAS long jump save in BiTS you were to go for it in 70 star?

[@SirTylerGolf]

Like 1 second

[@OfficialNoCoast]

the way the mic holder looks like bro's headset is so funny lmao

[@unbrokenbrony5618]

The pop filter looked it was part of his headset so that's why people were saying it was behind him

[@huskyh1152]

I want to get into speed running mario 64 but i dont have a pc and my phone is too weak it looks really fun oneday i will speed run it

[@hendyman9735]

Benji64 is a legend

[@deepblue921]

these videos are so nicee

[@InverterSwirlPlus]

I wonder if Benji and Weegee are on 3:03 Pace at Island Hop,Bomb clip and Slide of they gonna do another 70 star WR

[@JediJess1]

24:36 Are you saying you need to learn how to grab bowser without touching his tail? it's pretty easy. the game checks to see if you within range, if you're roughly facing the same way as bowser, and if you "have touched" his tail, not if you "are touching". to do the trick, touch Bowser's tail, then face a direction, wait for bowser to be within range and facing the same direction as you, then press B. he'll warp in front of you into your hands. quite fun. I'll admit, I'm not sure about the specific condition to do with which way Mario and Bowser are facing, but it appears there's a large room for error there. play around with it.

[@zepnickmemes4465]

Wish the game volume was turned up

[@Obsolete386]

bread is just unadulterated toast

[@TheHaremReviewer]

So is the mic in front of or behind him?

[@TrillMurray]

Does he chalk up?? I can't believe I've never seen that before..

[@Skeedap]

Where did Simply get the glarses I need to know

[@mcanty]

update - the record was beaten by parsee02 with a 46:54

[@wilbar-od3hh]

Ayyyooo, another wr in reacting to world records by Simply

[@shobbzane1]

Banger react, little sapling. LMAO

[@NeXaSLvL]

listening to lil boats new album is part of the strat now

[@ppp_ppp_ppp_ppp_ppp_ppp]

nice glasses! those are sick

[@jonathanlin66]

12:10 simply the triple jump dive is really easy after u do the buffer kick you hold left instead of up left for a bit and you have like 10 million frames to double jump instead of 2 its super free I do it in runs and my 70 pb is like 54 minutes

[@johnm1008]

They always say the run is trash because they remember every time loss and they know they *could* do better

[@bloodwolf2609]

lets go new channel

[@becyk_du_quebec]

World class reacting right there.

[@Shadec1]

I hope you react this good when you get the 70star WR.

[@Poppomatic64]

Someone call summoning salt aayy

[@turkeyman631]

I love how every 64 streamer is way harder on themselves than anyone else could be. They are always talking about how trash their run is throughout the whole video on these WR runs lol.

[@undeadfury55]

If he got world record listening to music, just imagine what he can achieve if he used audio cues :o

[@alm2998]

awesome glasses simply!!

[@VyNyLoKo6]

Oh shit cant wait for the music channel content, lets go bootycake bandit

[@cookergronkberg]

There is a new generation of runners that are now pushing to the next level. Simply will never again hold another major M64 record in my opinion.

[@pottytrained]

He got wr on a bonk, he can get wr another time if he wanted

[@hm09235nd]

I wonder what is the most beautifully deranged speed run that will NEVER happen cause it isn’t close to Mario 64’s popularity.

[@grandmastermario3695]

Crazy already 70 star WR in mario 64, and all moons WR, and donkey Kong 2 any% WR already got beat in 2023 already Crazy 🤪

[@josk8936]

Love how chats screems to him to react harder, but when he actually comments something cool or even talks a little everyone says no one asked, react softer, and be quiet OMEGALUL

[@grandmastermario3695]

Only completed 47 WHAT well still 13,000 attempts

[@Bolpat]

It’s so nuts people call the birb stur “flyguy-less” when you’re not even supposed to use the flyguy.

[@JoeMajewski]

Another banger dropped by Simply. Need I say more. Does it go much further than that?

[@turbines]

dang he beat weegee, gg

[@czr.]

Wild run and record

[@imanrique8999]

Good job everyone, GroupMeeting next week? HOLD

[@adhoccerswings]

one medium-unadultered steak please

[@zepnickmemes4465]

Microphone is clearly apart of the green screen

[@henryst5]

Can you restart it from the beginning? I missed it

[@MINE_OK]

sure man

[@austinhall3937]

26:45 Can someone please explain this to me? I've never understood splits. Time goes from -31.2 to -29.0 but they say 5/6 seconds. How do splits work or whatever? Shouldn't that be a 2.2 second loss? Sorry for the ignorance but I've always wondered

[@IamMrMan]

The splits usually start counting down at a certain point. So when he grabs the star, the split time stops and shows his pace. In this case -29.0 means he is 29 seconds faster than his pb pace. If it were to be +29, he would 29 seconds slower than pb pace. Basically all of the splits are based off of your best time.

[@Isosceles8818]

I believe they say 5/6 seconds because that's how far off his best segment is. Best segment is the fastest he has ever completed that specific segment. Now the +/- shown next to his split is how far ahead or behind the pace of his PB run split at that point in the run.

[@redyoshi793]

he's looking at the best split for that segment which you can see is a 1:49, he splits this run at 1:55 which is where the 5/6 secs comes from

[@SirTylerGolf]

He lost 2.2 to his pb, and lost 5-6 seconds to if he'd done the star well

[@eauna0029]

pog new vid and recorddd

[@jasonburke147]

Whoa.

[@Sugar3Glider]

BENJI!!!!!

[@darkrider281]

Chip clip: We kinda put a wall here enter at your own discretion

[@Sweetguy1821]

When is simply going to go on the grind for 120?

[@JamesEvans2023]

The dudes weird black attachment to the mic perfectly blended in and looked like his right headphone, he's got that shit at a weird angle and I get what chat was saying.

[@chanceneck8072]

1:04.... Seriously, wtf??? That's not the way to go, Simply! Tell them!! You're gonna have to finish more runs, even when they were garbage or you gonna mess up on throws in actual good runs! Ask Clint Stevens! Or ask Liam! ... 😅🤭

[@isaiaheads6327]

is it normal for top runners to only complete 1 run out of 300? Like dont you just want to complete a run sometimes even if you PB

[@zwanz0r]

Yes, but does it even count if he doesn't call simpmom?

[@Blucario90]

Simply when is it going to be you who has the video that other people are reacting to?

[@thechiliman500]

I still feel like he is def sitting in front of his mic lol

[@rolmops883]

Everyone who thinks that is mistaking the pop filter for headphones

[@thechiliman500]

@@rolmops883 Yeah after watching this whole vid, I think you are probably right. Trippy.

[@noraairobas7804]

Finally a record that's not weegees

[@stevenbeichner9630]

I don’t see it in the comments anywhere, but can someone explain how pathing to do HMC later in the run rather than while in the basement is faster?

[@Xzyzrzq]

Going to DDD straight from LLL is a quicker path and you have to go back down to the basement again to get Mipps the second time because he doesn't come back until you get 50 stars.

[@alan_e_]

its because mips doesn't appear until 50 stars. its only slightly faster really, but no other route is as good (currently?) there's some ideas though

[@matthewsales8983]

Can we talk about the microphone in the room? That thing is behind Benji’s head.

[@wirelessomega2]

It's his pop filter blending in with his headphones lmao

[@HorribadHumor]

Does Simply speedrun anymore or just react to them?
