Tomb Raider 3 Glitched Speedrun - Meteorite Cavern

Meteorite Cavern in 3:11 (approximate timing) completing the game in 1:27:10.
I had to redo this level because I had completely forgot about a shortcut that saved me 14 seconds over the old run. The trick involved using a crawl bug to miss the square around the corner that closes the gate. Missing the square keeps the gate open and allows Lara to exit the level without waiting for the helicopter to land. Thanks for the shortcut go out to rr_carroll and xXApelaumXx.
MMAN found an awesome way to beat Willard in 2 stuns before finishing him off for good. This strategy requires 20 Desert Eagle shots and 50 MP5 shots to kill him. If you want to try this tactic out, send me a message and I will walk you through it.
This is definitely final now. Again the Final Statistics time is wrong. Here are the correct stats:
Time Taken: 1:27:10
Secrets Found: 1 of 59
Kills: 13
Ammo Used: 133
Hits: 98
Health Packs Used: 5.5
Distance Traveled: 52.60km
Huge thanks to everyone on the Tomb Runner Forums for their extensive help and input on shortcuts, bugs, and various strategies and routes. And for their support throughout the run. Also thanks to everyone here on KZbin for your support and encouragement during this run. Im hoping this run may still be accepted by SDA.

Using the cheat code to unlock the levels and weapons is not allowed in speedrunning. So, what I did was I planned ahead of time how much ammo and medipacks I would need and I also skipped alot of enemies. (You can see in my final stats I only killed 13 enemies which is less than 1 kill per level). In the water parts of Antarctica, I used the save bug which refills Lara's cold meter in order to save a bunch of medipacks.

[@RadxxRyan]

There is no save penalty on the PS. The way I timed it was that the level starts at 0:14 and Lara hits the end of level square at 3:25

[@carlitoshacker]

well in this game eist a glicht that increase the km distance travelled , i see you make this in other levels , for example in Area 51

[@RadxxRyan]

Yeah I had no flares left.

[@RadxxRyan]

No idea honestly. Maybe all the glitches used in the run, screwed with the time.

[@PieJee1]

so she walked 52,60 km in 1 hour, 27 minutes and 10 seconds? That means she has a walking speed of 36,20 km/hour.

[@carlitoshacker]

simple tomb raiders always have the glichtes that it broken the normal activity of the game

[@ShadowJacky]

had to be careful about your health while fighting willard I see. congrats once more!

[@RadxxRyan]

Yes but a gate in the outside area will block your way to the end unless you kill him.

[@RadxxRyan]

The glitches used throughout the game screw up the final timer for some reason.

[@foedraal]

@RadxxRyan There is someone who pulled it off, not killing Willard and still get to the end of the level. I don't remember who it is, but if I do find him again, I'll tell u. Maybe for a redo or something :p

[@sillumkune]

Congratulations on this fantastic run, Ryan. I'm going to be looking forward to your next one. If you're planning a glitchless run, how about going for all secrets too? Good luck with your next challenge!

[@EwilCZ]

I think the actual time of this level is 3:14, because of the save penalty.

[@EwilCZ]

Sorry, I thought it applies for any platform. Yeah, I got 3:11 too.

[@gnarroni]

Did you know that you can pass this level without killing Willard? I saw somewhere in youtube and it would be more fast!

[@carlitoshacker]

In the final statistics it says 1:13...why you say other result?

[@RadxxRyan]

I skipped the trigger square by using a crawl bug.

[@gnarroni]

Ohh sorry i didn't know that. I'm just wondering to help your work! =)

[@kie007890]

could u like save like 2secs if u use flare at end instead of rolling ??

[@Quidiffer]

the 2 dislikes are from willard and the helicopter driver

[@Asofiro]

how the last time would be wrong?

[@hoebaboeba]

she makes the same movements as in tomb raider 1

[@apel_runner]

Congrats on finishing!

[@jwood5150]
