The "Impossible" Quake Record 

Man, the wife% run was so wholesome.

This was absolutely amazing. The music, editing, commentary and cinematics.. just perfection. This is certainly one of the greatest moments of my Quake career, and a memory I will cherish for the rest of my days. Thank you so much, Connor. ❤

I was distracted by the Grunt fighting the Rottweiler and missed the record. Can he redo the run?

Mad respect to your wife for becoming a speed runner for tea.

I cannot believe how high quality this video is. This was a pleasure to watch

As someone who knows nothing about Quake speedrunning, you absolutly made me feel the weight of this accomplishment. Great job!

The suspense! The 20 sec wife run :D The horde :DDD Beautiful video man

This is mind blowing in every sense: the record itself, the history, the narration, the recams, the music...! And at the end you realize the vast majority of competitors jumped on the wrong side of that gap for years. This video truly deserve Karl Jobst grade view counts!

The way Chambers gracefully sails through the air in slow motion, together with the music, is beautiful to see! Especially with all the other speedrunners trailing behind at the end!

3:09 shoutout to Markus Taipale. it's actually insane how good he was for the time. There's a reason that he has the records for basically all the most difficult levels in qdqwav, including literally all of E4. He's my favorite Quake speedrunner ever.

I think the music really takes this video to the next level. It isn't just the speedrunner but how well it was all captured

LOVED this so much - the ending was, beautiful 😭

Man I remember back in the 90s when people were grinding for 7 seconds, I never got close myself. Six seconds is just spectacular.

This is the perfect speedrun video, you deserve the audience of the big time channels. It is the perfect length, with just the right amount of information and context to drive home the weight of the record without boring the audience. The tone both vocally and musically are fantastic, relaxed yet awe inspiring. If anyone else made this video it would be 45 minutes long, explaining the back story of every runner who has held the record for 27 years, over explaining game mechanics, etc. Great job, fastest subscribe of my life.

This is so well made. Really. The captivating intro with all the player models. And then how you bring back the same clip at the end. Bravo

Great video. I'm not a Quake speedrunner at all, never paid attention to it at all, but this came across my feed and it's just... Idk, very soothing and low key in a way that I wish RU-vid promoted more of. The narration and music are great. The methodical explanation of the progression of the runs is also very interesting! I've tried to find the song used here on the Lords of Lounge pages, but no luck. Is that one you commissioned, maybe?

Even my run got shown! Thank you for the great video, Connor! A pleasure to watch, as always!

chambers is so fucking underrated. 300 subs? bro what he deserves millions for what hes done with the quake community. love u bro

I'm glad Quake is getting some what of a revival. Been playing Quake Live since it's release

This video is a master class on video editing and story telling. Honestly haven't been gripped by a Quake video like this. Amazing work. Thanks for giving this niche such reverence with your videos.

Dude your channel is gonna blow up. This quality of video is way beyond the norm for 1k subs. Keep up the great work!

Your voice is perfect for this, kind of calming actually.

Suggesting this video for me is RU-vid's algorithm's finest hour. Awesome video; awesome channel. To add to the others who have quite rightly commented on the quality of production on this - it is nothing short of fantastic. Great job all round!

I have to say your production quality has improved so much over the last year. Cool title cards, freecams, way beter script reading, even music now? Love your content, keep it up!

Great to be part of it and ofcourse all Quake Games! :) - matr0xpl from Poland! :] Greetings!

Never played quake or watch quake speed runs. I watched this whole video because it was so well made that it kept me interesting without having any context.

Really cool video! I especially like the perspective the final clip gives, and how large the gap between runs look then (slowed down, of course). First video I've seen from your channel, , but I really like the calm narration and deep insight, definitely a subscription from me!

Hi everyone, thanks for the nice comments about the music. We've put the track on youtube here for now: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-n7r8Y3T6quA.html Streaming platforms etc coming soon ❤

Just found your channel and I absolutely love it. Quake speed runs have always been my favourite. Looking forward to future videos'!!!

RU-vid reccommended me this vid, glad it did cause its wonderfully put together and well presented. Great job

The last scene with the layered records all racing to the final sprint really drove home the record. .002 seconds isn't a lot, but it's everything. And seeing that final red guy a whole character length ahead of #2, well, that shows the time for as large as it is. Incredible stuff all around ggs

Such an excellent video on such a niche topic. Well done mate

Great video! Editing, music, all top notch.

Amazing record and fantastic video. The final shot, the whole history of the run trailing behind them is so powerful. And, see how far ahead they are of the previous record at the end, really makes the .002 seconds feel like a huge leap. Great job!

Ty algo for suggesting this to me. You're gonna blow up, this video, especially the intro is surreal, beautiful and captivating. Your'e gonna go far.

Im so happy that I have found your channel . Great content ,wish you all the best.

Amazing video! Super captivating and extremely well done. Thank you for sharing this man!

I've never been interested in Quake speedruns, but I like your storytelling so much, I watched the whole thing. Great job!

Amazing video, and even more amazing run! Thank you for keeping the Quake scene relevant! Best fps to date!

Found your channel some days ago, and I'm watching all your videos. The format, voice and presentation is impeccable, keep it up

great video, grew up on quake and Quake LANs ( professional and at home stuff ) with Quake was a staple of my childhood in the best way possible keep up the great work!

I have nothing new to ad, but I couldn't not say it: a beautiful video and an incredible achievement. Thank you, both.

Great editing, writing, and music choice. Well done.

congrats to 10000 subs!!!! keep up the good work!

I just found this, this is beautiful man. I love quake and ive never seen anything like this before. Keep it up, you got a sub

Both impressive. Record runs and Your video. Great job!

Goodness, the sounds and images of this game bring back such fond memories of simpler times. I'm so happy to see folks are still pushing the envelope on speedrunning this game. Magnificent commentary. That footage of all the runs was excellent hah!

Great job on the video! I know nothing of history of Quake speedruns and this made me realize, or more like feel, how big of an achievement this speedrun is. Very enjoyable!

Awesome video! Great job capturing it

For a person who has not played Quake since it came out, you made a video about Quake look beautiful! Brilliant video!

Best video yet mate - please keep it up. I missed you when you were gone!

Outstanding commentary! This was really entertaining to watch, thank you for making this video. 11:16 poor dog, he just wanted to play!

Love seeing this and finding out the community is still active. I was around in the late 90's, at the time had a few records, but only one still stands and probably the only reason is no one else has gotten to it yet lol. Can't believe I hadn't seen this channel before! Thanks for making all these videos. Time to speed run watching them :)

i really really love this channel. it is needed and good! ever since i saw QDQ i have never played the game the same way.

What an amazing video, thank you for making this.

Incredible. From someone who played Quake as a kid when it first came out you got yourself a sub :) Keep up the great work!

nicely done. narrative on spot.

To this day I've never played an FPS with better movement than Quake

no, there’s just something in my eye

What an incredible acomplishment. I love speed runs like this.

Underrated content creator :)) you have my praises and support :)

Your voice is so relaxing and at the same time the video is informative. Luv it 💕

Really cool seeing them all run at once!

I'm so glad i discovered your channel please don't ever stop doing this♥

This video itself is amazing! Thank you

A wonderful explainer video about a niche subject, done with great care and attension. You explain things very well, the music and the visuals heighten it so nicely too. An intresting and enjoyable watch. Thank you for your time!

Such a well made video. Beautiful.

Amazing video! This deserves at least a million views!

I am really hoping that you are branching out and making more videos. That was a wonderful documentary and I was amazed to see that such a small channel was able to pull something like this off Love, the music, editing and voice!

We need more of this compilations of different runs in one video

Great storytelling, well done.

Fantastic video all around. Good writing is like good UI - most only notice when it's bad. Good job on good writing.

Jeeeesus, You make such a fantastic content about Q1. Wish this game was more popular on YT becasue of how groundbreaking it was.

Wow dude, this is kino, send this video to Cannes

That intro is one of the cleanest edits ive ever seen, masterful work!

Be a security guard at a facility. Intruder flies by at near the speed of sound. Pull the trigger but accidentally hit a teammate. The dog takes it personally and mauls you to death.

Wow, without properly done documentaries like this, most people would never be able to appreciate how much perseverance this takes!

Awesome video! By the way, I love speedruns that are faster on harder levels because of the strategy involving enemies or something else caused by the difficulty settings. GG!

Simply one of the best videos I have ever seen on this platform

Love your breakdowns, thank you! I can only imagine how happy he must’ve felt when he finally saw that 6 seconds on the final screen.

Brilliantly produced video.

Nothing beats Quake movement in an FPS. Butter.

Great video, great explanation of an astonishing run. Thank you. Have a sub. :)

what a story, nice content dude

Can't imagine the feeling after getting those 6 seconds, love your videos

how did i not sub to this channel already ! Amazing job !

Great video. I love seeing small obscure communities live on like this, what a fantastic run

This is top-tier speedrunning quality - the editing, narration, music. Please expand to more than just quake! The world needs you

Amazing the video and the run!

Top notch vid, mate!

Incredible stuff!

Great video, thanks!

This is art! I remember perfectly years ago me doing this jump and finishing this map in 15 seconds, I was SO happy

Great content, thanks !

That was a great video! Thank you!

Dude your voice is soothing. I want more explanation video from you.

You know a game its a masterpiece when you find this kind of content. Its like a... Legacy.

Excellent video. Thank you. 👌

Hello you absolute legends! Great video and a massive achievement!
