It's a TAS

[@torormseth]

A Google User the run is cheated, nobody can play this perfectly while talking the whole time

[@Alphie_]

A Google User It's a TAS. If you don't know what that means, it easily boils down to this: he has a program that allows him to see his inputs in real-time, and he can go back and edit these inputs frame by frame in order to create perfect play. The term TAS itself stands for Tool Assisted Speedrun or Tool Assisted Superplay.

[@GalopaWXY]

"This boss is scary. Intimidating. Yeah let's not fight this guy."

[@SlendyMctendies]

I noticed Midna's shadow outside of twilight zones when I played too. I have a strong feeling it was intentionally made that way because the Twilight Realm is the realm of shadows, plus Midna always makes herself part of Link's shadow when he warps somewhere. Therefore it makes sense that you could potentially see her shadow even if her physical form isn't present. LOZ titles have more attention to detail that some people realize, but they're typically not in places you would expect.

34:08-34:19 its actually a easter egg cause you know "Midna is always at your shadows" and when she comes out of it she is not in the shadow anymore

[@NykowPalalum]

It's more than an easter egg, this is where Midna hides when you're in the light world, cause she's from the Twilight world.

[@lpsp442]

Yeah, I thought everyone knew/understood that

[@wonderguardstalker]

She explicitly comes out of the shadow too. I dunno, might've been bait

[@Martykun36]

I think that only goes to show how little speedrunners care about the plot.

[@TheMadZocker]

I guess the point was that Midna shouldn't be able to cast a shadow there in the first place. Yeah, she lives *inside* your shadow, so she couldn't cast one there as she isn't sitting on Link's back there yet.
