World Record Progression - Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas - Any% 

Thank you!

Ben would you consider doing an update eventually? How many years do you think it would be worth waiting before an update is worth doing? I see we just hit sub 3 hours on any%

@@aSnugglyDuckling apologies for the wait, but an update is in the works :)

This comment made me put popcorn in the microwave.

B. I. N

and now you (?) got the iconic sub 3h wr. What a time to be alive

@@SiljCBcnr HOOOOLY true! Based award for you, kind stranger!

Even funnier when you imagine CJ having to explain why an assault helicopter suddenly appeared in front of them lol

I'm really glad you enjoy my videos, it means a lot. Thank you for supporting them :)

I just need

Thanks!

We all start somewhere, give it a try!

Hes like the matt Turk of san andreas

Thank you :)

Love you

Thanks for the kind words, the reason I didn't put music in is simply because I find copyright free stuff to be pretty stale so I just didn't bother

Glad you enjoyed :)

It wasn't known at the time, I was just going off of Patrick's discovery at the time. In hindsight I could have added an extra section in somewhere though yeah

@@englishben nah, the video is long enough and its too minor.

Sauce?

The video does end on the Any% WR lol, are you sure you watched the entire thing?

@@englishben You are absolutely right. When typing the comment I was 30 minutes in, and I used the searchbar to hover over the end and saw Reset, so I thought you ended on him and not on the Any%. My bad 😅 I edited my comment.

@@Booskop. No worries lad

Yeah this video is a little quiet, it's tough to balance it because I'm using footage from 100 different people some of which are super quiet or super loud. I'd rather be too quiet than risk giving someone a heart attack. Thanks though king

Interesting

I was too excited to release the video :(

Yeah, he went to bully for a while and then GTAV before stopping entirely. He's still active on twitter I think

@@englishben He has tweeted that he wants to do something else in life now. Now he apparently only tweets about politics. ^^

Breaking audio has nothing to do with the world record so idk it would have a place in the video. I have no idea who found the old WSoTT setup and it isn't documented anywhere to my knowledge. As for the fade skips they are extremely minor, if I included every minor strat the video would be 6 hours long lol

This video isn't monetised because of the intro, but I don't mind. I didn't make this for the money lol

It's to show that they were from archive.org back in '05, if i wrote them as subtitles I could write anything I wanted to try and create fake narratives etc.

Impressive video, EBen! Very little to nitpick about it given the insane length. :D That the 4:20 or whatever run was hard to beat because it had little mistakes I cannot agree with, given by how much it has been beaten (ofc I am accounting for new strats). Just a gut feeling, though. IIRC, K9 credited GTARunner for the Freddy chase skip. It would take a little research to see what role Snuvvs had in it. 4:24 The GS bridge drop has been timed to be slower, so it is not about consistency. Even if that is Fake News (might be), do you even have enough speed to kill Sweet with this strat (which avoids an animation)? That would need testing. I wrote 47000 messages? :D The LAB dance skip had been shown earlier. gtaforums.com/topic/455492-pass-lifes-a-beach-without-dancing/?do=findComment&comment=1060137310 July 2010 There, a guy comments that he had already read about such a skip before. The minigun strat to turn Pulasky's car is hilarious, I would have liked the video footage of it in: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ch2OyjxgqoQ.html Not talking about the 555 D.A. respawn was a deliberate decision, I suppose. It saves 30s or so, IIRC. More importantly for me, it is a fascinating strat for code monkeys. :D

Strangely enough, it only had a few thousand until last week. I guess it's either being recommended or perhaps a big personality has linked it somewhere because usually my videos don't get nearly this much traffic. Thanks for the kind words though :)

@@englishben Recommended it was

Thanks for the feedback, I don't do too much scripted/edited content so I'm definitely not at a professional level. The blurring idea is a good one, I'll keep it in mind :)

No plans to make one for GTA V, since it's not my area of expertise. Glad you liked this one though :)

@@englishben that's a bummer! But I understand, one video like this takes tons of work, knowledge and research. Hopefully one day you'll be able to branch out to that too!
