Imaginé being a villager chilling in your house, and a weirdo suddenly just comes by and blows up your home just to sell it to your neighbor

[eatticks]

I can imagine benex thinking its a world record and being told illumina beat it 3 seconds later

[les]

Everyone in the comments: Haha of course illumina got the record
The video: Actually benex got the record and illumina proved it
Biggest take away from this is the solid sportsmanship, he didn't have to investigate it and if he didn't it may have never been so thoroughly checked just because of how everyone accepts his placement at the top.

[oliversvajda]

I guess you could say, that he holds the world record for holding a world record the least amount of time.

[lloydcallaghan]

Imagine breaking the record, hearing that it was beaten 3 seconds later but then actually being told you got it because of loading screens.

[JB-lxty]

Mad respect to illumina for passing down the world record when he could have just kept it a secret and kept the record for himself

[leedavis]

Imagine you're Benex, and you knew Illumina's speed run was happening.
You break the world record: "Yes I did it!"
Illumina breaks the record 3 seconds later: ".. Why didn't I think this was gonna happen?"

[brotherearth]

Three seconds difference? It's amazing this game still has such an active speedrunning community!

[mnstrethereal]

Isn’t the amount of time he had the record a record in itself

[TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

"I used to be a speedrunner like you, but then I took 3 seconds too long."

[asherdevine]

I swear every new fact I learn about Illumina makes me love him more

[mr_sketchpad]

For half of the video I kept thinking, *"Where is the part when he beats Minecraft in 3 seconds?!"*

[carlton]

So benex did get a world record for the shortest lived world record then?

[teslapenguin]

I like the soft narration voice, easy on my ears after a long day of listening to Zoom calls with people who have high mic volume.

[suudii]

“I held a world record for three seconds” would look good on a resume

[zachrichard]

this guy sounds like he's speaking softly to try and not wake his parents

[OHMYGODMYNAMEDOESNTFI]

I love how this video is dedicated to bennex and illumina but people talk about dream in the comments

[vxel]

3:39 “He’s about to innovate the category...He’s going to ride a horse.”

[netanelkomm]

Imagine a 5 minute world record, where you spawn on top of a house of a village that generated above a ravin where the stronghold generated, and you just get some beds, some food and some blocks and go to destroy that dragon

[ChillDude]

And then there is Dream who just broke all these records just today.

For those saying this aged poorly, this is referring to his 1.15 run which there is no suspicions.
