Impossible Wrong Warp Skip Shatters Portal 2 World Record

One of Portal 2's easiest levels ended up holding the game's hardest Wrong Warp skip, here's how speedrunners conquered it.

Also yes, a full speedrun of Secret Panel performs a Pancake shot and the Toast Skip, might just call it breakfast at that point.

Music used (in order):
Celeste OST - Checking in
Baba Is You OST - Wall is Stop
Hollow Knight OST - Queens Gardens
Dustforce OST - It's Not Supposed To Be Snowing
Celeste OST - Resurrections
FTL:Faster Than Light OST - Lost Ship (Explore)
VA-11 Hall-A OST - Showtime!
Ducktales (NES) - The Moon Theme

Thanks to Jaio and Mel for helping with the video creation process.

This video is not an actual speedrun world record, nor a speedrun tutorial. This video is a showcase of a speedrun strategy that goes in-depth to the various tricks, glitches and bugs that make the strategy possible.

Impossible -> TAS only -> one runner does it -> high-level but viable strat
you love to see it

I like to think that speedrun Chell is canon, and within moments of getting her hands on a portal gun she starts zooming across the facility, while GLaDOS and Wheatley watch in disbelief.

“cave johnson here. I’ve just received word from the QA department that the airlock doors are not entirely airtight. unfortunately, this means all testing in shafts four through six and the upper half of shaft eight will be suspended for the foreseeable future. in unrelated news, we’re now accepting applications for airlock door engineers, so fill out the appropriate form if you’re interested.”

4:16 the cut off at "What the fu-" is so perfect

Speed runners naming strats

Complicated name that accurately describes the strat: 👎
food: 👍

[attmayMB]

Wow. I think the two biggest takeaways from this video are that with time, skill, and perseverance, impossible strats become possible and that only 10.5% of Msushi's viewers are subscribed to his channel.

STOP NAMING ROUTES AFTER FOOD

- ROUTES ARE SUPPOSED TO HAVE NORMAL NAMES
- HOW are we supposed to know WHAT THE ROUTE IS FOR if the route is NAMED AFTER MY BREAKFAST?
- Want a proper name? We had a convention for that. It was called "adding skip at the end"
- "i'm gonna french fry my way into lemonade to do mayonnaise" - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged

LOOK at what Routers have been demanding your Respect for all this time, with all their fancy tools and video game knowledge (These are REAL Names of routes, done by REAL Portal 2 speedrunners):
- Toast????
-
-

"Hello, I'd like to know how to pancake please"
They have played us for absolute fools

[puggyzcool]

"This strat was initially called Wheatly skip skip, because it skips Wheatly skip" had me laughing for no reason
(why is this comment so popular???)

[theabarguy]

That one game designer in 2009 or something: “meh, who’s gonna notice that 1px gap in a door? Lets call it a day“

Speedrunners in 2019: “ah-ha!!!”

[TABBYMUSIC]

6:40 that's gotta be the smoothest a youtuber has ever done that bit, respect

[ProdEva-qftb]

1:45 saying this in a serious video essay voice made me laugh so hard for some reason

[idontwantahandlethough]

@2:30 OH COME ON! You could have said "as DemonStrate demonstrated" or something like that. It was _right there!!_
(but in all seriousness, great video dude!)

[username]

I can’t wait for the next Portal 2 strat to just be named something like “Ham”. Not even like “ham skip” or “ham clip”, just “Ham”. As a proper noun. Just “Ham”.

[Lucas_OBrien]

This dude is second place on the leaderboard and he didn't mention himself once. What a humble legend

[konstick-pepeland]

I am now convinced that there is not a single portal 2 model that doesn't have any flaws or problems.
Great video, as always, your essays are extremely good!

[BlueSR]

IT'S A GOOD DAY TO BE AN MSUSHI FAN. great video :D

[PeterZaitcev]

Hi, MSushi. Next time, instead of asking to subscribe, ask to soup-scribe and press the like butter. I've heard Portal 2 speedrunners love food tricks.

[minerman]

In my first playthrough I skipped finding PotatOS in the bird nest by flinging myself precisely over the top of the aperture logo instead of through it when the door opened, so she just randomly appeared in my hand like Wheatley does here 7:52

[ends]

I began to believe that Valve left all these holes in the collision box SOLELY to mess with speedrunners

[falloutphan]

I love learning about speedrunning for a couple of reasons. One, I'm amazed at the lengths people will go to in order to save small amounts of time, and I'm impressed at the difficult tricks top runners can pull off. And two, I love seeing how different speedrun communities name their strats. Deep down, we're all just nerds who like to play game fast, and even though I don't run Portal myself (yet) I'm a huge fan of the food-themed strat names xD
