The irony where the faster you complete a level, the longer it takes to tally up all that leftover time at the end of a stage.

But each 1 second saved on the level run increases only a few miliseconds to account it at the end.

*****​ If you know the game mechanics, you know that's not actually cheating... TAS is when you do a script for the emulator which will play the game automatically and precisely. So that what you saw was someone doing that script, setting what buttons were pressed on every single frame of that run, and if im not wrong, this game runs at 60 frames per second so this TAS just took him months and months of work, the longer ones could take years!

Hitboxes are broken in this game, I played on the real NES, and I did the same thing in Worlds such as 4-1 2. Hack = Modifying the game to help you beat the game, Glitch = Screw up in codes that can cause skips in levels, rooms, etc. 3. Speedrun = BEATING THE GAME AS FAST AS POSSIBLE. Any% is beating the game within anytime, including glitching the game. 100% is beating the game fully, meaning doing every thing possible. 4. Despite all this stuff, this is a TAS anyways, the description "origin: *tas*vg.com" including most possibly inhuman/impossible moves (aka jumping extremely fast) etc...

goomba008 TAS =/= Speed run. Speed runs are done by a person without hacking the game and TAS are done with special programs that let people find the most optimal routs by editing and moving at one frame at a time. There's a place for both but they can't be counted in the same category.

[@goomba008]

RizenLink Yes they can... Is it a run? yes Is it speedy? yes Here's the categories for you (this is well-established nomenclature, what you think they should be is irrelevant): - TAS speed runs - Single segment speed runs - Segmented speed runs All are speed runs. They require different skills and talents. They are all impressive. Consult the speed run wiki for more information. Good day sir

[@wrestlerx6962]

Also, to those of you claiming that he should have died when hitting the piranha plants, you should know that the hitbox in the piranha plants is actually only a small vertical rectangle in the bottom part of the plant, while Mario's hitbox encompasses almost his entire body. Basically this means he would have to jump directly on the plant and hit it dead on in order for the hitboxes to collide, thus causing him to die. On the other hand, there are several cases where this appears to occur in this video but he still doesn't die, for instance at 3:19 he appears to hit a plant directly and nothing happens. Personally I believe that the video is manipulated for this reason, but I know if I say this all people will do is criticize me.

Though the game has not been altered and no cheat codes are in use. Everything is identical to console.

[@BigRedWood]

"Everything is identical to console." yet you said "This is a Tool-Assisted Speedrun" and "recorded on an emulator with tools like Save States and Frame Advance to simulate a perfect human player."

BigRedWood The game and everything you see in this TAS would operate the same exact way on console if you could repeat the inputs, which is the whole purpose of a TAS. EVERYTHING is doable in theory, and most of it have been done by players in real time on console without these tools.

At 3:53 I would get a game over on 8-1

[@nswiss19751]

Sorry you cant run through the plants!!!

[@TheJapanornothing]

You can.

[@HarrisonCheng]

one line of text is all the creator of this amazing tas gets

[@NinjaKirk]

wow ! world 8-2 backwards jumpthrough commitment.. OK now I gotta keep watching, just had to say wow..

[@Rusli1659LPSoldier]

How the heck did you walk backward and jump like that? Amazing!

[@alegamer_real]

It’s a TAS-only trick called fast acceleration

[@Rusli1659LPSoldier]

@@alegamer_real the fast acceleration? I don't think if this work on the Gameboy advance version.

[@alegamer_real]

@@Rusli1659LPSoldier but in the video it’s not the gba version

[@Rusli1659LPSoldier]

@@alegamer_real the fast acceleration is only in the NES version. But the SNES version might work I think?

[@alegamer_real]

@@Rusli1659LPSoldier Yes it’s possible in the SNES version

[@miniroll32]

Fake as hell. Not discounting the obvious piranha deaths, the give away was on World 1-2. The glitch that enables you to pass through the blocks and into the Warp Zone can't be completed the way this player attempted, because the ROM only loads active (properly working) pipes when you take the intended route; over the blocks at the top of the screen. The route this player took, which is commonly used for the Minus World glitch, wouldn't tell the game to load the correct data, such as the Warp Zone text and level information. Also, you can't even pass through the blocks at that speed or angle.

+Henry Jones Jnr. not fake just tas

[@nichtkellykelly5916]

wrong it is possible i had those glitches too i did them by mistake i was like: wow look shyt im stuck in wall wtf i still can walk o.O

[@notahuman996]

+Henry Jones Jnr. actually the trigger for the warps to activate is a beam from bottom to top of the screen not just above the ceiling

[@pansyflower9697]

+Henry Jones Jnr. I hate snakes

[@EPoloMa]

Not to mention he kills the hammer bros by hitting them from jumping under them

[@lukeybearalt.7584]

Could you please tell me why Mario is not moving for 5 sec? He's right next to the goal pole! Is it fear?

[@panama-canada]

Amazing! And i was playing it for months in my days. How he jumps on the side of the pipe not touching the Piranha plant is astounding.

[@evxdaddy]

I'm pretty sure he died at 3:23. I'm not saying it's not possible to beat it so fast just saying it didn't happen here.

[@shonendude2532]

+James TOHME as long as Mario is in his falling animation he will stop anything doesn't matter where he hits them

[@agentj007gaming9]

Like many people, I've finished this game legit dozens of times. Now, I've watched and rewatched that bit. My thoughts: 1) Alex Camino, what you said may be true, but Mario seems to be in his jumping animation, not falling. 2) If Mario is, indeed, jumping not falling, he should be dead as a proverbial doornail. Anytime you jump UP into enemies on this game, you die. 3) Like many NES games, Super Mario Bros. is a bit glitchy, so it could be a legit glitch. To the naked eye, it doesn't look legit at all. 4) The point of a TAS (Tool Assisted Speedrun) is to essentially demonstrate what is actually possible in a game within the rules of the game, but generally showcasing things that would prove exceedingly difficult for a human player to actually perform. Save state abuse and cut-and-paste editing can abuse this concept, so this could be a legit video or edited garbage and only the creator and certain other TAS-familiar individuals can tell it's rubbish. For my money, Mario hitting that Koopa in such a manner shouldn't be possible outside of a glitch. He should be one dead plumber!

[@TompaA]

Agent J007 Gaming The TAS input file of this run can be found at TASVideos, where anyone can download the run and verify it, making it impossible to cheat. So even though something may look suspicious, it all works the same exact way it does on console. As you are recording frame by frame and with save states, it's very easy to make a jump so that you hit the koopa from below the very first frame Mario starts falling, making it look like Mario's still jumping. So yeah, it's not a glitch, it's just how the game works which this TAS could easily take advantage over for fun =).

[@cristiancecaro1946]

3:39 died

[@itsonlyhugs9486]

Wow at the amount of people saying fake or that cheats were used lol. So ignorant, learn what TAS is. Can't read the comments, makes my head hurt at that level of stupidity.

[@sayr8843]

Yeah but it should say "TAS" in the title. It also shouldn't say world record. People got clickbaited.

[@itsonlyhugs9486]

+Sayr It's in the description where the origin of it was. Also anyone with common sense can tell this is TAS. Big fucking deal if it's not in the title. How about don't be lazy and check the description or understand what TAS and use your brain. Gtfo.

[@sayr8843]

Jerad Scharrer Yeah, but who checks that? It SHOULD be in the title period. And yes I'm aware it's TAS, but the guy should make a better effort of informing newbies about what it is in the description. Almost all TAS videos I've seen at least explain what it is in the description.

[@itsonlyhugs9486]

+Sayr Don't be a newbie, problem solved. It's not that serious.

[@sayr8843]

Jerad Scharrer It's inevitable. There will always be "newbies".

[@diegotorres6534]

i saw his body go 3/4 into a plant how small are the hit zones then??

[@doktor5100]

When I go to the "hidden level" in the tube on level 4-2 it takes me to a different level than yours. I cant find where to transfer to level 8 :( ???

[@TompaA]

Normally you need to take the beanstalk to reach the warp zone. Here is an explanation on how to be able to use the pipe instead: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnrRi2Vjpst-e7c

[@ege1919]

this game took like a week to finish when i was 5

[@dr2d2]

Ege Siroren hey the wii one took me 3 month i think

[@creepshowcrate]

So I'm to believe a HUMAN BEING did this? If so, I've never seen such impressive gaming. Except when I'M in the zone, of course :P

[@Duderson11]

this is fake. its a tool-assisted speedrun the world record is 4:58

[@creepshowcrate]

Duderson11 Yeah I know, I saw all the TAS comments down there. So you're saying a person, with zero tool-assist, actually finished SMB in only one second longer than this? Whoa.

[@foxao]

Duderson11 Not fake dumb. I thik u Even watch SpeedCon

[@echelon2k8]

Terry Alexander Yes, the cheating world record. Yipee!

[@echelon2k8]

RisefromyourGRAVE No, but making it apparent that the cheating was a separate event would make it much easier for me to avoid.

[@FraldinhoBJJ]

I don’t know why but it cracks me up the little water section in 8-4. You’re in the very last castle and everything just feels more dangerous . The enemies are even different colored . The level is a maze . You just know you’re getting ready to fight bowser for the last time . You go down a pipe and that relaxed and silly music plays and you’re swimming around . Then it’s back to business to confront the ads throwing mad turtle who stole your princess

[@BigShotSpamton]

10 YEARS AGO????

[@Milo375Gaming]

3:53 SAY WHUUUT??!??

[@butchcrockett8784]

He IS using a cheat. Just prior to 1:25 he passes directly through the secon plant without diing

[@TompaA]

That's just because the piranha plants have very small hitboxes. You can easily jump through them like that without dying, try it yourself in that level. Everything you see in this Tool Assisted Speedrun works identical to the way it does on console. No cheat codes, nothing modified.

[@butchcrockett8784]

I apologies for the quick and brash accusation and instead aplaud. I was wrong. the hit boxes on the piranah plants only extend two pixels into the head thereby making it possible to fly through the art. A quick google of smb hitboxes will give show many hitboxes quite smaller than the sprites themselves. Also found a lot of hits debunking many moments in the video where it seems cheating was happining.

[@TwoFourNineNine]

People need to stop saying he didn't say it was tas, look in the description
