Explaining the INSANE Mario: Bowser's Fury Speedrun World Record

Thank you soo much for showcasing the run! There isn’t another Tanner that I’d want to watch my WR more than you :) I’m on Twitch if y’all would like to watch more from me [ twitch.tv/nin_tanner ], and please speedrun Bowser’s Fury! It’s so fun!! And now, a boring correction list (don't worry, it ain't a long read): 1. [9:34] While I don't have a number myself, 15 crouches per second sounds a bit high. I'd say 10 per second is a good mash for me. 2. [18:35] The first time Tanner points at the floating island I manipulate with the camera, he actually pointed at the wrong one. He corrects himself a couple minutes later. 3. [20:11] The "trash can" does not have to be defeated to unlock the Pipe Path island. In fact, you must complete the first phase of the Pipe Path and Risky Whisker islands (the two I do before the trash can) to unlock the trash can. 4. [24:33] All Bowser fights are outside of the cycle system, not just the final battle.

You know it’s a good run when smant has to speak at 100mi/h to keep up

"Am I accidentally on like 1.25x speed?" Has to be the speedrunner compliment of the century

"The faster you do the boss fight the more time you can save" Thanks Tanner!

This feels like GDQ without audience, but with someone on the couch giving a a pretty damn good explanation of the run. More of that please! 👏

Man you managed to explain everything super well, I know very little about speedrunning or modern Mario but I was able to follow really well and the title is 0 clickbait what a crazy run, love it

Love listening to Ant react and commentate on speedruns. I don't even know what mario game this is but im entralled by 1)speed runs 2) the technical knowledge of the runner and Ant knowing what that knowledge is

I kinda love his reacting to speedrun videos

It's really impressive how he's able to control two characters at once so well throughout the entire run. It's also really nice that Smant was doing a commentary through it all since it really showcased just how much is actually happening in this run

Smant was practically crying on how well he was controlling the skate😂

Nin-Tanner deserves way more support than he's been getting, I can't wait to see the amount of support he gets from someone as popular as SmallAnt showcasing his speedrun!

speedruns are one thing where this kinda react/commentary thing actually makes it like 10x better to watch because then you actually know what's going on

There's some parts of this that I feel like I understand and could do with practice, but controlling Bowser Jr. like that? Absolutely insane. Mad respect.

I was checking if I had the video on 2x speed. You can feel the passion and I love it! THIS is how you are both energetic and not annoying! So many creators tend to scream into the microphone which is mostly just annoying.

As someone who’s not a big fan of the design of Bowser’s Fury casually, this has actually convinced me that it’s a sick speed game. Good stuff

I love this so much. You running is often fun on its own, but I love when speed runners cover other speed runners work and explain it. It's like an in the trenches play-by-play version of SpeedDocs or SummoningSalt. Perhaps a speedy Jobst. 😂

as a person who has beaten stage 2 of super mario bros arcade, I can say this is a pretty difficult run.

Love how he honors him by making this video 26:00 flat, completely incredible speed run. Definitely a man dedicated to his craft.

Man, I love these speedrun analysis videos. I’m always impressed by the creative techniques this community always comes up with, so having someone sit down and explain the process to laypersons like myself is always appreciated 💕

I love Smallant's commentary on these speedruns because I do not have the patience to speedrun but love the techniques they employ in runs.

I like how it feels as if smallant has to speedrun the explanaition as well, like the run itself is just too fast

I could watch Smant excitedly explaining speed runs everyday! It's so fun!

It's funny to see Smant be astounded by Nin-Tanners split brain to control 2 characters at once while plays Odyssey with his hands and feet

Just the fact that you have to coordinate both your own movements as well as Bowser Jr. through *motion controls* just gotta make this one of the most insane games to speedrun oh lord

Damn well that was a quick upload. It was fun watching you go over this so well!

SmallAnt is one of the people who can just talk about something he is excited about and you just feel good. It's so amazing to listen to him just talk and explain something like you don't want him to stop.

This is great, SmallAnt! I love when someone can explain so clearly what's going on - it can be very hard mid-run for the player especially during events like GDQ, it's so cool to see it broken down essentially real-time.

So nice that you showcase this mans run like that. Aside from it just being a really cool speedrun thats clearly very difficult to perform with the controlling 2 characters, 1 with motion controls, its nice to see big creators like ant pulling up the smaller guys. Huge respect for that! Congrats on the awesome run!

this was great. him getting practically everything right was so satisfying

Incredible run, the dual control seems super fun, and amazing movement Well done for the commentary, it adds a lot of value to the run =)

This felt like a GDQ speedrun with the commentary

Your explanation of this run is almost as impressive as the run itself! Wow! Lol kudos to the runner too, his brain is insane to do all this point-precision multitasking.

Was wondering how cool the movement would be and he immediately started bhopping, this run is already sick

i used to keep up with speedruns for this game like a year ago, now i'm watching the new WR and it's SO much crazier than before omg

Please more content like this Smant! I love speedrunners explaining runs and showcasing other runners. I love your challenges but give us more speedrun commentary!

Babe wake up, new Smallant speed run explanation just dropped

That was a lot of fun to watch, especially with the commentary! Thanks!

This speedrun has evolved so much in just one year! Congrats to nin-tanner for the milestone!

I really enjoy this type of videos. You explained it great, I hope there‘ll be more of these!

This commentary was done so well. We really need more speedrun commentary to reach this level!

Oh I really want more videos like this. This was such a fun video to watch. Maybe it could be a series with lesser-known games with cool runs!

Glad to see Smallant give this game another chance. The speedrun is so sick. I'd love to grind for Sub 26 someday but it would be a big mental barrier for me. (Nin) Tanner must've been really nervous and excited to VC with you and it is so deserved after how much he grinded for Sub 26.

i'm so happy whenever speedruns are commentated over. it's why i love GDQ stuff. makes me appreciate them more

This is great content and it's really nice seeing him be so passionate about speedrunning.

Big fan of the Speedrun walk through! Be cool to see some more!

Great run, and great narration. I'll be checking out his channel now!

More wr Speedrun commentaries please. I love hearing about the exploits and the tricks the runners know.

This speedrun is truly TRvid. Never seen such a TRvid speedrun.

I remembered trying a few speedruns on my own when the game first came out. The differences and similarities is astounding. I was never good, but glad the only thing I could do (vectoring) is still used LMAO

man, i remember running this game for like two months, things have come a long way!!

Your speed run videos are always so good.

Wow, I remember when I saw the world record around release at I think 40ish minutes. Crazy how far has it come

The movement in this run is insane.

Damn, what an absolute youtube this man is

Super impressive. Mario speed runs always impresse the hell out of me.

Wow! Always nice to have an expert explains stuff so "dummies" like me understand it too and can appreciate it! :) Without it I wouldn't understand a fifth or tenth of what happened haha

Super interesting to listen to, you're such a treat Tanner! Please keep doing more of these :)

This was insane! Such a great watch!

Fantastic run!! I love this game so much, one of the only Nintendo releases to make me feel something in a long time. I wish it was longer too… can only hope Nintendo decides to implement some more experimental stuff in whatever main Mario game comes next.

this is so fast that i feel like if i blink i will miss like an hours worth of this speedrun

I'd love to see Smallant explain some older Mario speedruns, like Mario 64.

Holy cow, what a run! The bowser jr controls are off the hook, amazing! Thanks for giving the run some attention.

I love how Smant is doing his own speedrun for fastest commentary on Bowsre's Fuy speedrum XD

Smallant just wanted to tell you that we love your work!!

Mario speedruns regardless of the game are some of the best speedruns you can ever watch.

Its insane how Ant's able to keep up with this, he'd be great at commentating

The crazy thing about this is the fact that resetting the game is faster than some of the cutscenes

I LOVE watching bowsers fury runs thanks a lot for showing it off and giving it the attention it deserves!

You'd be a good GDQ commentator! Awesome run.

Woah. Sick wr and great job explaining smant

Honestly, Bowsers fury was such a fun experience in my opinion. It really felt like a Mario open world, with power ups and stuff.

Super hyped to see something pop up here. I would love to watch you on twitch as well, but as stupid as it sounds it lags for me there.

Speed runners scare me. I can't believe some humans have this level of skill. Extremely impressive. I've done like one speed run for fun in my life, practiced, trained, spent like a month to beat it as fast as possible even learning glitches and watching world records. I still was like an hour behind the pros. This is amazing and that is so freaking cool to see this! Thanks for sharing SmallAnt

i really love bowser's fury and i mean REALLY love this game is so choc-full of little secrets and tricks to learn and master, and all that wrapped up into just a wonderful audiovisual package it is so fun to play, i genuinely consider it one of the best games nintendo has released in the recent years, if not THE best, it is just that good in my opinion, even if it's just a few hours long i was already extremely happy they finally ported 3d world to the switch, because it is such a great game as well, and then i noticed how they updated the movement which was awesome and THEN i played bowsers fury and man, it has been hard recently justifying a 60 bucks or even 40 bucks pricetag on some of nintendo's newer games but 3d world + bowsers fury is such a good package for casuals and tryhards alike, i would recommend it to everyone even at 80, but if anyone ever gets it at 40 or lower, that is THE deal of their life i tell you i knew from the moment i touched it for the first time, that the speedrun of this was gonna be SIIIICK

SmallAnt’s energy here is like 6-year-old me getting excited trying to show my mom how the palette changed after 6pm in Pokémon Gold

This game pushes the boundary of multitasking in a fun way. Love watching this.

I watched a lot of early Bowser's Fury Speedruns. So it's nice to see how it evolved and damn is it much much faster. I remember them struggling with sub 30min. Edit: That early first Sky Island Shine is amazing! probably the largest departure from older routes.

An absolutely youtube speedrun, love it!

I love how impressive of a run this is and yet there's still time You can save

Small ant is just such a cool guy frankly

This is one of the coolest speedgames ever and deserves so much more respect

the skill of Nin-Tanner doing a WR by controlling two characters at once including during the skate part, is almost as impressive as SmallAnt being able to talk fast enough to keep up with what's happening.

Having a speedrunner explain what's happening in another person's speedrun is my favorite genre of video. The one where Smallant reacted to the Minecraft All Achievements run is my comfort video.

This movement tech with Vectoring reminds me of some old school Wolfenstein movement tech that you'd use to slide on ice faster, lol

holy crap, he actually explains a run

More speedrun reaction videos from the speedrunning jack of all trades himself (that's you) would be amazing.

Why…if I’m not mistaken…this appears to be a form of…petite underground colony insect of some manner 🧐 Great run, great vid! I gotta say if you wanna get nutty at button presses or speed tapping on guitar, practice each for the other xD

Awesome breakdown, what an insane speed run

Jeez, imagine the amount of practice that went into something like this. This runner is a real TRvid.

mario speedrunners are just insane, always super entertaining to watch the strats they come up with

Lol i didnt know there was a boss when I completed that area. I ended up walking on top of the pipes the whole time

Man, high-quality narration and good energy. A great host. Seriously.

It's crazy how he managed to get 10 shines before bowser comes out for the first time!

This is a cool speed run and I want to try it now lol,SMANT could we see you try it?

Smant: How does he control 2 characters at once? Also Smant: Plays smo with his hands and feet

I have nothing else to say besides this is literally insanity. ggs my guy.

It's like a mix between 3D mario games and a source engine game with tilt controls copilot it's insane

These reactions are pretty youtube :) Love the work. Keep it up

I remember people were saying early Bowser Fury speed runs were crazy, but I didn’t expect it was this nuts a year and a bit later. Wow!

This game looks so great both for normal players and speedrunner, a rare occurrence these days :D
