dude i love crash bandicoot

amazing video, quaide! thank you so much for telling this story 💛

[Rat_]

I’d like to formally apologize to all Spyro speedrunners, I’m sorry for ruining 97.65% of your runs

[damiencouturee]

Thats always how it goes, no records for years, someone FINALLY gets a new WR and within 24 hours its gone lol.

[FeloPastry]

So glad you caught Lauras face on the turnaround rat proxy. Iconic moment in the history of Spyro speedrunning along with Dayo going "i am the best that ever was, and im humble"

HES THE (tiny) RAT WHO KILLS ALL OF THE RUNS

[Rickfernello]

Love the way this rat is randomly given a lot of importance, it's really funny lol

[theofdiamondscard]

It actually only kills 0.3% of runs. The rest of the runs are all done by Rats Georg, who intentionally kills his speedrun to the rat.

I find it amazing that anyone is willing to put themselves through that over and over again, where you can do everything right and still get your run killed 98% of the time at the end by something out of your control. Seems kind of sadistic, but impressive.

[dh]

I adore these speedrunning rivalries where the record gets passed back and forth and that's some amazing gameplay by both Ash and Laura, they should be proud no matter where the record finally lands.

We went in depth about how hard it was to save a couple seconds, but we're just gonna gloss over how SEVENTEEN seconds were saved at the end???

[Dayoman]

Nice vid. Whoever was the first to go for rat proxy must have been crazy

[DarkViperAU]

Great video mate. I wish you continued success with your channel.

[PintFrumpyrat]

It makes me so happy to see my best friend own at YouTube this hard, ur goin places brother love u ❤

[Superdavo]

I've never understood how people persevere so well with such unreliable speedruns, for me even a 50% chance of being screwed over at the end is enough to add a bunch of frustration lol

Great work, both to you on this fantastic video and to the runners who put so much work into these incredible runs!

The Resurrections music fits so well in that last bit. It sounds like there's not too much hope and then the moment the turnaround rat proxy is brought up, it moves to be intriguing, making you wonder "what would happen if that did happen in a run?"

And then it happens. The music just FITS

[kahlzun]

its fascinating how often speedruns are like this, someone seems to 'unlock' a certain level of speed, and suddenly everyone is doing it

[SonicdaShapeshifter]

Ngl I feel really happy for Laura that she was able to reclaim it so hard. 3 times in a row! Unbelievable

[Jade-tree]

I had no idea a rat could be such an obstacle

[kalidoesart]

so glad this showed up in my feed, really hope you catch the algorithm cause you deserve it! the writing, pacing, edits, and everything else are so on point! Looking forward to future videos :>
