Super Mario World usually takes about 5 hours to normally beat the game. But this is how a speed runner completed the game in just 41 seconds. You have to watch this crazy feat! #shorts
Sethbling discovered this. You can also make it spawn a plethroa of different items, instead of just the credits. Sethbling also completly re-codded the game and made flappy bird with zero mods. Just hsing this INSANE setup that could actually re-code the game from within the game
Wasn't actually originally found by SethBling, but he indeed did a lot of work on various setups to execute the glitch and was the first to do a run on console, which then used an older route than this.
@@Gendreau113 He does deserve a lot of credits for it however! Also love his video when he did things like Flappy Bird, like you mentioned, good stuff :).
@Joosher56 Something to do with item manipulation in your inventory to switch warp points. With proper set up, you can walk out of your bedroom and end up in the hall of fame
@@bobbygetsbanned6049 Depends on your definition of beating the game. Plenty of people consider achieving ACE like this to be a valid way to beat the game. Others don't. Neither is wrong.
@@haph2087 No they are clearly wrong because they didn't beat the game, they exploited a glitch. That's like driving to the end of a marathon and claiming you won because some people consider it valid, it's not, you didn't run the damn marathon so you didn't win regardless of if glitch obsessed weirdos think it's valid.
This isn't just code manipulation, it's arbitrary code execution. The multitap is being used so that the various inputs held down could be interpreted as machine code and it is being used to load a function that plays the end credits.
@@1budzboy629 Triggering the game's ending is however a definition of beating the game. It was also the main purpose of this specific category. There are categories where you have to beat all bosses as well, or all levels and so on.
@@ISaw_BigFoot op meant that he's surprised it's real unlike playground rumours of lore for example, thwomp being playable in mario kart. Is reading between the lines hard for you?
Aahhh this isn't at all what the game does. The player actually writes code into memory using their X Y location and strategic jump glitches. The last trick tells the game to start executing that code which was designed to send the player to credits!
@Super Nostalgia Ezekiel 23:20 20 There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses. Yup thats from your dumb book written by a bunch of desert schizophrenics, go to sleep kid
winner. otherwise the wr for all games which have credits listed in main menu is 1 second. actually if i could i would get up from bed right now and complete resident evil village in 1 second and get my name in history
@@JeffCaplan313??? I mean in an increasingly digital world it's a fact that coding will become a more valuable skill in the future, regardless of race. How is that racist?
Exactly he shouldn't get any title for using a glitch to just cheat straight to the end, mean while everyone else actually played every level in record time
@@ishmael8291theres different categories you know. This is called ACE and for games that have it usually it's only allowed in a single category (the unrestricted category). People don't run it simply for the reason it's not that fun. But to say it isn't valid is silly, the player is performing all inputs and using original hardware
i remember watching sethbling showcase this years ago and it would take even him like 40 mins to pull it off. The fact that its 41 seconds now is insane
Mario: so Luigi what did you do today? Luigi: well I helped a old lady cross the street and saved some toads, how about you Mario? Mario: I manipulated the space time continuum by performing an action that cannot be completed causes reality to warp me hours into the future defeating Bowser and saving dinosaur land in less than a minute! Luigi: ....
Luigi: that was the last time mario spoke to me before the speed demon took over. Kirbo: POYO! Luigi: we have to save him before its too late. Kirbo: POYO POYO!
@@gherreraj Different speedrun categories do or don’t allow exploits! There’s glitchless categories, categories where only minor glitches are allowed, and so on and so forth. Besides, executing this glitch seems to take and absurd amount of talent.
No, because that would break the rules for running a marathon. For this speedrun category, you may use any kind of glitch within the game in order to reach the ending as quickly as possible. As the rules were followed, it is a legit run. For the marathon rules, you should run the said distance, driving to the finish line would thus break the rules and will be considered cheating. If the rules were instead "Reach the finish line, any means neccesary", then you would be allowed to drive. A big difference.
Nah,it's its like having another person kill and replace an actual judge, then just write down that you won while you were doing the monster mash at the first water station. And everyone in the audience has been paid off to agree that it counts.
@@Champoforyx96 Exit is way more interesting and respected and anyone suggesting otherwise is coping. Glitched records to this extent that just break the game not beat the game are just party tricks
@@HollowRick ACE and cheating device are completely different things. If a glitch can be done without external devices or mods, it is allowed in glitched speedruns. Not the runner's fault the devs fucked up
Lil bro running around the whole world risking his life while Peach getting clapped in Bowser dungeon loving her time and when she finally decide to come home all ma man get is a kiss on the cheek. This game the ultimate friendzone cuck simulator.
Imagine meeting the richest person in the 90's and having them gamble a good chunk of their wealth on you beating this game in under a minute. That'd be fucking hilarious!😂
Halfway hearing the explanation, I thought he was trolling us with some random ass, April Fool's explanation. 😆 "Position the characters and objects at these exact pixels while duct taping these exact buttons down on 4 separate controllers plugged into a multitap." WTH!? 😆
Iam just mad that he used a glitch to get the time and he really didn't play the whole game and actually beat the game, its like cheating while everyone else beat the game by beating every level.
@@ishmael8291lol he spent many hours than you would ever have. It's not like he did the credits warp, then literally never touchex the game again. He's almost certainly beaten the game, all 96 Exits, dozens of times. It is preeetty clear you don't know what speedrunning is about
@@Pixiuchu so he spent days and hours trying to glitch the game to win faster yeah that makes sense, why don't I pull out my glitch controller and beat everyone at call of duty and get the most kills, world record. I worked hard because I had to buy the controller and train with it.
He totally left off the fact that all the things you do before Yoshi eats the chuck are actually writing code that gets executed. It's much more than just "I don't know what to do so I'll send them to the end" like it is implied.
Could you please explain more or possibly point me to a resource? I am studying computer science and we recently worked with buffer overflow attacks, and this seems really interesting!
@@anthonybustamante5736look into SethBling. He was thoroughly involved with this and talked abt the technical parts in great length on his channel It's actually a huge shame this guy didn't even mention him
@@anthonybustamante5736google the following article that explains it pretty well : "How Super Mario World Speedrunners Beat The Game in 40 Seconds By Writing Code With Koopa Shells" Good luck in your CS degree! - a fellow computer scientist :-)
Even more impressive, using a similar yet more complex ACE technique Sethbling got a fully functional flappy bird clone working within super Mario world. Crazy stuff
Common misconception about this trick: this is actually the intended ending to the game, but due to an oversight several other levels and worlds are generated if you skip the trick
This is called arbitrary code execution (ACE for short). This glitch was discovered by Seth Bling (the guy in second place) Basically how it works is that all of the objects (like Koopa shells, Yoshis, sprites, etc) are written as lines of code. If done correctly, you can warp to the credits. The way the warp is executed is by collecting a coin while Yoshi is eating it, usually from a Chuckya (if you do this without setting up the objects you either get a glitched object in your storage or even a game crash) This has also been used to do other things like run Snake, Pong, and the first Super Mario Brothers. A similar glitch was done on SMB3 with almost the same process, but instead you have to glitch a pipe to get underground and hit an invisible note block.
It wasn't actually SethBling that discovered this glitch initially, though he did indeed do a lot of work on it and was the first to do a real time on console of it, among other things. Otherwise, yes, correct :).
@@christiankirby8092 yes but without mods. Which this speed run is labeled as. Which makes it not a true speed run. A speed run is running through the whole game not skipping levels etc.
Side note: the 5 hour figure is basically a normal playthrough. Even casual players who learn the game’s secrets can beat it in under half an hour with an entirely intended route, and the glitchless speedrun is only a few minutes. The longest “regular” speedrun category is called “lunar dragon” and requires beating all stages, getting all secret exits, collecting at least 5 Yoshi coins in every level, AND getting all 7 of the ‘3-up’ moons hidden throughout the game. And THAT record sits at 1 hour 43 minutes 3 seconds currently.
Should it really be considered as “beating” the game though? If you put me a foot away to the finish line in a race against an Olympic runner did I really “beat them at a race”?
@@MiguelGarcia-gy6nb Well tbf, this glitch is part of the game, and you are speed-running the game, so a better analogy would be running in a race, but the race allows teleportation.
This trick is actually called ACE which refers to coding the game inside of the game. Thes process takes a lot of training and is so complicated that it has its own category in the Mario Speedrun records. In this case, what he did was program the game to trigger the end sequence by letting it run multiple programs to find a way to continue the game without crashing. This technique was also used to make flappy bird in Mario so that's something🙂👍
Wrong this is referred as the O exit speed run only 56 people have completed and even then its one of the least popular speedruns due to the amount of training and lack of actual reward theres a reason this is his only speedrun record in his history of speedrunning
@@badrabbit9881you talking about the speedrun’s name in the mario game He talks about the trick/idea used in the speedrun, that was and can be used in other games So yup, what you said is true, but in the wrong place cuz it’s not what he’s talking about
I mean They got to the end of the game didn't they? It was just by inputting a hyper specific button combination that is typically seen as much much harder then playing normally
I remember it was controversial back when it was discovered because technically you aren’t beating the game, you are just making the credits cutscene play.
I swear to god the whole speedrun thing is a mess. So if i make an beat every game button like avgn will i be the best in every category? I mean i did play it legit i did only press buttons after all!
@@trizkit995 this is not any% bud, what a joke. Any% requires you know you actually BEAT the game. Having the credits play ≠ beating the game. How disrespectful to the actual any% players.
Okay quick correction, you do not manipulate the code to eat the charging chuck. That's unintended behavior but not done through code manip. To eat the charging chuck you just force load him into a specific slot at a specific time. That slot is originally taken up by the coin that Yoshi tries to eat but Mario connects the coin before Yoshi can fully eat it. So when the chuck loads in through screen scroll it loads into the slot the coin was in and thus is attached to Yoshi's tongue.
@@gabomarquez2720 the charging chuck is also eaten in the other main speedrunning category (where you beat the shortest amount of levels to reach the end) and that’s been a thing for about ~9 years so anyone who has ever tried that will know. There’s an ancient video on my channel from when I used to do it as a kid.
@@gabomarquez2720 Because it's not that hard to understand. And even if it comes as a surprise to you maybe, people actually have _hobbies_ now and then. Shocking. I know.
There are loads of differences categories for any games when it comes to speedrunning. For speedrun rules to be logical, all games need a category when everything within the game's code is allowed to use with the pure goal of reaching the end as quickly as possible. If you can do something with pure input presses, it is allowed. So yes, this is the WR for this category. But there are many others for running the game, all with a separate leaderboard, rules and records.
@@TompaAlol whats the categories name? Is it the "i used tape from best buy to hold my buttons on this bootleg thing that i can plug in multiple snes controles in to do the impossible" eh?
@@lukaswright7414 The categories are named after how many levels (Or exits, rather) that are needed to beat the game. With 96 Exit being all of them, 11 Exit is the normal way through Star World and 0 Exit being this category. A Multitap is the only type of device that allows you to hook up more than two controllers to the system. There are many games that support up to 5 players playing at the same time, such as the Super Bomberman series. Even still, most (if not all) games still accept inputs from all five controller ports, even if they aren't normally doing anything. When this glitch is executed, the code instructions are read outside it's normal perimeters in the game's memory. This happens to partly be the values for what inputs you are making on your controllers, which allow the credit warps to happen. Though I must say: I don't too much like that you are allowed to tape down buttons, I think it should be the player doing that instead. Though the community allowed it for this category and it's fair game for everyone as everyone is under the same ruleset. Yes, I took your "joke question" seriously, sorry =) .
It's more accurate to say imagine winning a marathon by building a car and then driving it to the finish line Yeah it gets you there faster and you yourself didn't run too the finish line but it's still harder to do then actually doing the running
@@ceqellSeth was the previous record holder and the person who discovered most of this stuff, chill with the passive aggressive bs "uhhh this isn't Sethbling" ass 🤓
This is the story Of Super Mario World. One day Mario and his friends decided to go to Dinosuar land to see his good friend Yoshi. Unfortunately it looks like Bowser has kidnapped the Princess and he has taken all the Yoshi eggs away as revenge after his major defeat during the events of Yoshi's Island. Mario goes to the forest then he finds his friend Yoshi and then he made him eat a shell and spit it out and then eat another one before spitting it out turning it into a coin and I can't even explain this shit. After all that everyone is magically saved, The End.
You beat me to it, I was going to say something similar. Imagine the dedication invested to these trivial things, they could have cured cancer and every known disease and made life better.
@@charlesedward5047 Cancer is part of a multi billion industry. We are meant took be kept sick and dying. Anyone finding the cure most likely gets unalive.
@@charlesedward5047When you find something you love to do or just find enjoyable, chances are you will spend more time on it and maybe even excel at that "trivial" task.

This is beating the game like grabbing everyone's money in Monopoly and yelling that you won would be beating the game. "ultimate monopoly money glitch"
Relax, there are different kinds of speedruns. Glitch runs are an entire category and are not counted with classic playthroughs. They’re more for people who love to find weird quirks in the code and manipulate the game’s programming.
@@mysticaxolotl8215 Oh really? Well thankfully we have you here to say that. Smacks forehead and wonders how there are not more people who fall down more often
@@quintocreations5091 Glitches are a malfunction of the game's code. A cheat is modification of the game's code. By performing a glitch, you aren't modifying the game in any way. Also, what sounds easier to you? Going through a game normally, or setting up enemies and items in pixel-perfect locations with frame-perfect timings required to get the game to execute that data as code?
It’s called ACE. You can do the same thing to make the SNES run anything using Mario World as its base. I’ve even seen Flappy Bird (which is funny given that game ripped off the pipes from Mario to begin with).
When I played this 2 player with my mom and it was her turn, i would sometimes press buttons on the 2nd controller while during her turn and she swore that I was messing her up. Maaaybe she was right lmao. One time after beating a level the game spawned us on the small empty island on the northwest portion of the map and softlocked the game.
At this rate programmers should just put a hidden code on any game that you press and jumps to the credit scene, plus a message "congratulations you have beaten the game fast, enjoy."
This takes the fun out of it, and absolutely no one would run the categories because they're just too uninteresting. Why then is something like this really cool? Aren't they the same thing? The general technique being employed here is arbitrary code execution, a technique that allows a user or player to access functions or variables in a game's code that they are not supposed to be able to access. Someone painstakingly tested and designed this exploit so that when this exact sequence of events is performed, the end credit warp is the result. *That* is why this is cool, not because of the warp to the ending, but because of *how* the warp is achieved.
The game accepts input from all five controller ports under normal conditions and the only way to use more controllers is with the multitap. When the glitch is executed, the code is reading the part of the memory where the value for button presses are located As the ending was reached with only input presses, it makes it a completely legit speedrun.
@@TompaA Exploits are defined as cheating, bozo. It’s playing the game in a manner it was not meant to be played, and can only be achieved using the exploit. It’s not a legit run. It’s an exploit run for clowns like you.
@FearNoOneAtAll seems like you are upset. I enjoy watching people get all defensive. Shows you are sensitive about it and a nerve was hit. Only those in states of weakness and the wrong get defensive.
Yeah, I'm not one to shit on the speed running community for wanting to do interesting tricks like this as fast as possible. But advertising it as "beating the game" never sat right with me.
It's not a little strange it's very strange. To skip the majority of the game isn't impressive nor does it show your skill at playing the game in full as it's intended to be. Ruins the experience. Puzzles me!
@@chandler7493 exploiting a glitch which skips you to the credits doesn't do anything for me personally. What I'd find impressive is (if in terms of speed running) playing the game in full and achieving a record through that.
@@pjaw8226 Hear me out, I think you're missing the point of why this is impressive. It's not because he "beat the game fast". It's because through understanding these games on a machine code level you can find bugs and intentionally break it in a way that will let you do whatever you want. Since this bug causes the game to read the wrong bytes as code, you can make the machine do anything you want. Someone even used this glitch to recreate flappy bird within the game itself (since they can essentially program the SNES with anything they want, and eat the charging chuck to execute the code they wrote by moving around random objects as those object's bytes will be repurposed as executable code) A single comment/short can't really do it justice. Do a little research into it and I promise you'll see why the SMW ACE exploit this is far more interesting than somebody just "beating the game fast"
A bit of a correction. The game doesn't spawn a charging chuck on the coin. The chuck spawns off screen in its normal position but is loaded into the slot in memory the coin was in. By killing what ever Yoshi was eating before Yoshi eats it allows other objects to load into the memory slot Yoshi is eating causing Yoshi to eat the newly loaded item instead.
For the people that are asking “ how this figured out”… it’s all about looking at the code and how memory is saved. There’s way more detailed versions of this famous glitch on YT.
Someone’s going to make ANOTHER short of this like 4 years from now, and it’ll get the same amount of traction. I know this short is a year old, but ACE was figured out a long time ago, but yes, it’s still impressive though. Always will be.
Yeah, this category is silly and most runners will ignore it. There are a couple of "Glitchless" categories for the game as well, but while the "96 Exit", where all levels are played, do use some glitches, they are quite minor. The run is absolutely amazing anyway!
@@jedisok13i agree with him, this is code injection to trick the game into sending you to the credits. its so lame, i dont care if its any%. you arent playing the game, you are manipulating the literal code through a loophole to say you finished it. its console commands without a console, it is not in the heart of a speedrun
@@jedisok13skill for what? 40 seconds of manipulation? Thats skilll?. What about the 5 hours of skill it took other people to complete? No 40 secs is more.impressive to you? Did u vote biden?
