Final Fantasy VII - Taking The Stairs @ Shinra HQ

[devorezz]

Am I the only person who leaves her name as Aeris?

[ennisjackgal2011]

God...I think I'm getting tired just watching this video!

[BlatentIgn0rance]

oh geez, this was OPTIONAL!? I took the stairs my first time playing it -_-

[Succaxe]

Does Cloud have lungs? My legs would be gone by the time I got there...

[ghostface185]

Imagine going to work, the elevator so happens to break down, so you take the stairs. You start to walk, glance at your watch. You have Twenty minutes before your late. You start running up the spiraled flight of stairs. Five minutes later you continue to climb. Sweat rolls heavily down your face, underarms soaking in sweat. Half way there someone races past from behind you. He tosses his suit case at you. You jump over it Wobbling backwards trying to get your balance. Continuing your journey u

[heyyaluvthis]

Anybody notice how before he goes up the stairs around 2:22, Barret runs down the stairs instead of up?

[LordProteus]

I bet there is a lot of bouncing with Tifa here to. :3

[Zazychan]

This is so hilarious.

[Through011]

if their are two dislikes you bet it's from Tifa and Barret or even from Cloud

[Leinkloud]

Did you know?, When Barret does "he he he" and Cloud says "Knock it off your giving me the creeps", That's almost exactly the same dialogue that happens between Tidus and Rikku in FFx when they are at the Thunder Plains and Rikku is scared beyond belief.

[Quel33Invidia]

I always loved this scene in the game. In my mind it is one of the best parts about the whole game.

[Chaotix641]

wha-??

I don't get it why did tifa stop at 3:08?

did she have to pee? lol

[TheSeanhl]

@Chaotix641 she wears a short skirt, and I think she just then realized/remembered the infamous "male gaze"

[FateJHedgehog]

We have entered the stairs dimension.

[pandaloves17]

cloud said that barret creeps him out lol

[cleon24769]

4:08 is the classic "retard" line

[RyougiShiki09]

This has to be my favorite part from Final Fantasy VII. Never fails to make me laugh. XD

[nisbahmumtaz909]

FFVII: You play as a guy climbing stairs, while a couple argues as they climb along with you.

[Wandered1441]

Tifa and Barret always had this older brother/younger sister thing going on, I thought.

[vejet]

Funny how she didnt think the let them go in front of her until they were half way up. By that point they've already had a pretty good view...

[netman446]

I can't believe I spent all 6 minutes watching this.

[TheIncompetentia]

Anybody think that Shinra's overcompensating for something with the stairs? I do.

[AeonCommander]

I took the stairs last playthrough. Fecking awesome. Especially Tifa's 'retard' line.

[alexnobody1]

Whenever I see ridiculously long staircases (like in iRobot or Left 4 Dead 2) It makes me think of this.

[koros9]

SORRY.

THE PRINCESS IS IN ANOTHER CASTLE

[dogshrapnel]

i would climb up the stairs, get the elixer, climb back down and shoot up the place...did i do it wrong? :D

[TheGMaster111]

The music will haunt my dreams forever.

[plasticbudgie]

Im playing this game through again, aint played since i was 8, yeah i took the stairs once again, first time i played i did, i was little and was scared if i bust in like barret says, might see a scary battle :P

[Wraithsight]

"Stop acting like a retard and climb"

...lol

I never climb the stairs cause you miss out on on of the turtle posters (one? maybe two? cant remember) is you do...

[Threadnaught]

@Wraithsight I always climb the stairs and I used to always miss out on the Turtle's Paradise Poster, this time though I used the lift to get to the lobby and got the poster.

It's only like getting the Mayor's Password.

[fdnfdjnedb]

Are we there yet?

[videogamer810]

Final Fantasy VII: A Puzzle of Climbing Stairs!

[eclips1994]

@videogamer810 dun dun daa!!! its almost as confusing as the plotline! jk, if you follow it, congratulations! you are offically a final fantasy fanatic! like me!

[Gigaspine7]

It's Metal Gear Solid all over again.

[MrNobody47710]

No, it's MGS the first time... only not MGS. I'z confused...

[LadyRoughneck]

two soldiers in the elevator

"so..what if they come up the stairs?"

"that's not the question, CAN they make it up the stairs?"

[omega1084]

Lol That was insanely funny.

"heh heh heh heh heh"

[MANJYOMETHUNDER111]

[D3m0nhunter719]

Epic.

[miniwick05]

what a waste a time this was. I remember i was eating and i could never take a bite unless i wanted to let go of run....good times

[mystorydude]

I do not remember this sceene.

[IonicWarrior]

Well aren't you lucky?

[raidenshred]

I used to wonder why Tifa made Barret and Cloud go in front of her.

Then I copped it - short skirt, stairs.

Square, you naughty bastards...

[neildKoR]

@raidenshred

Short doesn't even BEGIN to describe Tifa's skirt.

[Goldenpelt426]

Heh heh heh...

[KonohaSinXFlame]

This was FIVE MINUTES? Dude, it felt SO much longer than that!

That's it, next time I'm using the front door!

[HRVDNT]

I'd rather face Safer Sephiroth, Emerald Weapon and Ruby Weapon at the same time than doing this again...

[Eliskuya]

"Marlene, Daddy wanted to see your face one more time..."

"Would you stop acting like a retard and climb?!"

tifa haves a point there.. to Barret XD

[joshuapsgibbons]

OH my god the stairs! This is why i get shivers down my spine when i hear the shinra HQ music.

[emeraldeyes55]

oh god, i was in Chicago and my room at the hotel was on the 20 floor. the elevators were out so i had to take the stairs up. halfway i was ready to die. can't imagine taking those stairs...

[DavidEc224]

I always take the stairs!

[qwe34bnm43]

i take the stairs b'coz of the elixir... ^_^

[CCard83]

I think I've taken the stairs all but once :)

[shadow333444]

my first playthrough I took the stairs, sadly I didnt know you could take the other way (I thought you HAD to take the stairs) till like 3rd playthrough >.> when my friend questioned me

[FF7rocker]

this is my favorite game scene of all time

[GarlandTheGreat]

Almost. There's a weapon for Red there. The weapon for Cid is on the 63rd floor.

[devaloki]

lol, i didn't even know there was another way besides taking the stairs

[shadow333444]

Me either, I always thought you just had to (I also wondered how barret and tifa always were ahead of me even when I climbed to the top of the stairs first and then I realised its cuz they dont have to load the next area, only cloud does >.>)

[Blackdrake1]

I do this all the time!

[Alastor221]

Tifa: "Would you stop being a retard and climb?"

Excellent line. I forgot those funny lines when I took the stairs

[MikeRHD]

Heh, nice. I think I only took the stairs my first time through the game though, every other time I've busted in. Just something more fun about brazenly busting through the front door and starting and all hell breaking loose.:) But I didn't remember how amusing the comments for taking the stairs were.

[OSHIDezu]

I hated this so much.

[BohepansTheThird]

Barret: Are we there yet?

XDDD

Just like a little kid...

Barret: Damn, man, I'm goin back!

Tifa: And take just as long to get there?

Barret: ...

Priceless. xDD

Tifa: Would you stop acting like a retard and climb?!

I swear, that line sounds like it came straight out of some script-changes-only hack, or something. O_O. XDDD Omg...

Now Barret should say, ".......CAN WE PLEASE KILL SOME PEOPLE NOW?! URRRRRGH!! *starts shootig up the place*" XDD

[Chris314709]

Those damn stairs! But you gotta love this part no matter what.

Cloud: "Who cares what you figured." to Barret. My favorite line

[VendedorDePastel]

Barret: "Why they gotta build these buildings so damn tall? That Shinra... they're just no damn good"

Tifa: "It's just a bit more..."

"...maybe"

I LOL'd at both

[SimuRei]

You'd think with Shinra being the richest company on the planet, they could afford a god damn ELEVATOR.

[Kahran042]

They have one, but this video shows the alternative to it.

[SimuRei]

Crap, I must have been really tired when I posted that. Sorry.

[KageNeon]

lol the onli reason i toke the stairs is the reactions its priceless......AND THT ELIXER WITOUT IT I WHOULD OF LOST IN TH TFIGHT AGAINST RUFUS

[Ssjtrunks2000]

climbing stairs was never so much fun until final fantasy vii lol

[blader7244]

this part of the game really ticked me off lol

[link0099]

theres another way besides the stairs???? 0_o

[SuperGuitarDude]

To answers peoples question: Tifa freaks out because she is wearing a skirt, so Barret and Cloud can take a peek, if you look closely she is hanging on to her skirt and refuses to go on ahead. I actually got that the first time playing through, even.

[lupiensis2]

Yes i remember this!This is really fun.After i got the Elixir i got all way down though!^-^

[pieman12345678900]

when i first played the game i thought that these stairs would never end i actualy thought it was a endless stairway

[Elvestar]

YES, this was like one of my favorite parts, haha! You totally rock - i was hoping someone would have this "only a bit longer.....maybe"

[darkriku713]

When he made Tifa Freak out it was because he sounded like he did not care abouit Arieth, but he stated that he did not mean that after how far they came on thier journey

[fatality356]

do you count every 2 or every 1? if by 1 i got 116

[Volcannon]

there are 117 stairs and a total of 936 steps.

[Volcannon]

correction on my part, 60 floors, 121 single stairs, 968 steps total.

[Moolers]

Actually, you were right the first time. There are 117 stairs.

[fatality356]

lol, i always took the stairs. what happens if you bust in??

[GarlandTheGreat]

Either try busting in the next time, or watch segment 10 of my speed run.

Also, the number of stairs is 117.

[puipipipo]

This seems like a really good game. Should I buy it?

[GarlandTheGreat]

Yeah, it's definitely worth playing, but make sure to play it with an open mind. If you expect the best game ever, you'll be disappointed.

[ILUVFFANDKH]

@GarlandTheGreat it is one of the best games ever :D

[Oracion]

Question: Did I miss something from 2:50 - 3:20? What the hell are Tifa and Barret talking about that makes Tifa freak out a bit? O_o

[GarlandTheGreat]

I never understood what made Tifa freak out there. It's one of these things in the game that make no sense whatsoever, thanks to the poor translation.

[strifegirl]

@GarlandTheGreat she freaked out because they were staring at her panties from below xDDD that's why she asked them to go ahead first xDDDD

[Eval999]

@GarlandTheGreat I think she's bitching at him for stopping to pant.

[Zazychan]

@GarlandTheGreat Actually I think it's because of Tifa's short skirt. She just realized that if she went first they could see under her skirt...I think that's what's going on.

[Strifezilla]

Yeh seeing that now it doesn't make sense at all. If only you could get that scene in the Japanese version and find someone to translate it

[ken171]

Tifa was first in order while climbing the stairs. Because of this, Cloud and Barret could see inside her skirt.

[Lindaru]

hahahahhaha XD

I remember this stair scene =D

It is always funny =)

[GameGeeks]

I love the stairs though I tend to take the stairs then go back down and bust in.

[BarfFromSpaceballs]

I lost count at 34 flights of stairs and I was only half-way through the video.

[Oifikzzy60]

oh yea XD thats when tifa said: dont act like a retard barret!

[asevenx62818]

ive tooken both ways and i still think stairs is way better!! The shinra hq is one of my fav parts of this game

[xkeyblademasterx07]

lol i was like hloy shit when 3 minutes after the video started u still were climbing stairs

[Oracion]

LOL.

"Marlene, Daddy wanted to see your face one more time..."

"Would you stop acting like a retard and climb!?" Love it. 5/5 xD

[Dvac23]

my first couple of times i played this game i took the stairs then after the like 4th time i decided to bust my way in

[moxie345]

This is the best way to go. Free Elixir and no battles till floor 60.

[Sv3nt3k]

Haha! I can never get enough of taking the stairs. The conversation is too funny to pass up! xD

Not to mention I always love racing against them.

[kantenbaer]

Kinda funny. I can't remember using another way then the stairs.

[Bananamatic]

Took this way once=p quite funny.

Can't remember it tho, 4+ years>.>

[DJTonyAllen]

LOL nice

[Tuppenfall]

Hey I allways take that route... It takes forever but I get the Elixir for reward, its worth it lol

[DragonKenji]

Ah yes - I nearly always took the stairs here - it's hilarious. XD

[Ashe10]

Hahaahaha 1st time i didn't take, but te other 5 Times i always took it =D
