@StoneGarage First you should know that this run is a Tool Assisted Speedrun, if you don't know what that is you can visit TASVideos to learn more.
The reason why he survives hitting stuff is because how small they made the hitboxes in the game. This makes it possible to hit parts of enemies without getting hurt (Such as the piranha plants). Everything done in this movie works the same, and can be done, on a NES console. No cheats or anything were used to record this TAS.
@bumbyk2000 Fake would be if you say it is a real time run, but it is a TAS. If you say it's a TAS, and that it is, there's nothing fake about it. Fake is when something isn't what it says it is.
okay i read all the comments about the hitboxes and shit but a little after 3:20, he jumps up under a green koopa and should've rightly died but then instead killed the turtle
@LoboAscuridad This game was programmed strangely at some points. When Mario is in his falling animation, he'll stomp on an enemy no matter where he hits it. That's why he survived at 3:26.
Top and side of the plants are made to not hurt you. Nothing out of the ordinary there either.
And 4:59.60 is the exact time this was finished in. The TAS record is now 04:57.31 though.
several times he seems to hit the flying koopa paratroopers from underneath and it counts as him jumping on them,i know from playing a lot that that does not happen :/
@KeeperDirk 1. He didn't use any cheats. I guess you think so because he's touching enemies without dying? That's because the game is made that way, it has bad hitboxes.
2. A TAS is supposed to be played on an emulator, nothing wrong here.
3. Not fake. It says it's a TAS and that's exactly what it is. It would have been fake if it was said the run was made on console while it was a TAS. But that's something completely different.
@biohead66 Not fake. The game is programmed that if Mario is falling, he'll land on an enemy no matter where he hits it. Very weird, but that's how it is.
This is wicked! I found a few glitches back when i used to play in my youth but none of those! I especially like the one in 1-2 where you jump into the pipe to get to the warp zone. And i swear the collision detection on the rotating fireballs in the castle was worse on my version!!
The collision detection on the piranha plants isn't pixel perfect. This is to make the game easier.
It's a speed run. It's supposed to showcase exploits in the game. I don't understand why people are giving thumbs up to the morons that think they're clever by pointing out that he touched piranha plants.
@YourAverageAsshole I understand what you by the piranha plants not being pixel perfect. But there were parts where s/he touched the plant directly. like 2:24 or 2:28.
TAS Speedruns are done with a combination of slowdown and mass save states. A person is playing the game, while abusing these two features to make this video.
@diablolf100 No hacks were used and it's not running faster than normal. The in game timer is faster than real seconds.
A lot of the plants won't hurt you because of the hitboxes being smaller than the actual flowers. This way you can touch the top as well as the sides without getting hurt. Nothing strange or out of the ordinary.
@Kieselbac Ah, ye of little faith. Emulators make quicksaves possible. It's also the dream of every asian guy to speedrun mario, and they do. Seeing this many videos here, this one doesn't seem incredible to me, it seems this is your first.
The "hitboxes" can be abused, if that is what seems "fake" to you. You can't touch the core of the carnivorous plants, but the top of it is graphically hitting you, but the hitbox doesn't reach you. same goes for the spinning fire poles, all enemies etc etc
This is failure. In that last bowser castle stage, there were times where you have absolutely perished, especially in that underwater part of the stage. This is fradulent. No respect. And learn to not use tool assisting....but then again, you don't need any assistance in being a tool.....
In the water area, you can touch parts of the fireballs without getting hurt. There is no cheating involved in making a TAS, and everything works the exact same way on console as it does in the emulator.
If you want the fastest real time run, go check out the channel andrewg1990.
@Tomtelala I'm not at all convinced. It looks like you got owned by Bowsers hammer at the end at exactly 5:00 minutes.....I do believe that there are faster times out there, I never said there wasn't, and I know what TAS means, or else I wouldn't have known to watch this video.
@verisimilitudino The game has very bad hitboxes in general. It's not easy to explain it in detail like this. Every pixel of the hammers, as well as Mario's body, aren't part of the hitbox. Most of the hammer isn't part of the hitbox actually.
There are tools within the emulator where you can see the hitboxes while playing. That way it is easier to understand why he can survive touching the enemies.
Also, sorry if I explained stuff you already know and such.
@Tomtelala I can understand that, but for some reason, when I play it on my game system, it appears to be far less forgiving than the gameplay in this video. In other words, I've been killed for much, much less.
@verisimilitudino When you play it on console, it's not easy to see exactly how close you are to an enemy when you die and such. While recording a TAS you can choose to be as close to an enemy as possible without getting hit. Considering you have save states and slow motion to help you.
I can assure you that it is the same on your game (As long as it is the NES version) works the same as it does in this run.
@1niels The point of a speedrun is to beat the game fast while abusing the game's flaws suchs as glitches and bad hitboxes, which exactly what this Tool Assisted Speedrun is doing.
It is possible to glitching through walls pretty easily and as it saves time, it should obviously be used in the run.
The game's hitboxes aren't perfected, you can touch parts of the flowers and fireballs without getting hit.
@Tomtelala but remember that with TAS u can also play in slowmotion, you can rewind, and u can point out a point where u want to land your jump, its all calculated, still alot of work but u dont have to be pro to do this
@b1gbudda The skill in making a TAS comes from planning, patience,outside-of-the-box thinking, creativity etc.
But yeah, I agree that real time running is more skillful than this is. To become a good speedrunner, you have to practice. To become a good TASer, you have to practice as well, just not the same way.
@Petardo238 No "supercheat" or any other cheats in this run.
As long as Mario is in his falling animation, he'll land on enemies even though they may hit you like the turtle did. That's how the game is designed.
Please visit the website TASvideos to learn more about what a Tool Assisted Speedrun is and the section "Game Resources" to learn more about the game.
@Kinesis17 They are actually that bad. If you watch the video 2JNf0lAo3Ns, you can see a TAS' input (Not this one, but a faster one) made on console. What that bot is doing in the video is to simply add input from the run to the game, nothing is changed.
@Kinesis17 When you play the game on the console, it is harder to see how the hitboxes actually work in the game. By playing on the emulator (Which is the EXACT SAME GAME) you can test to see how much of Mario's body can stand inside, for example, the plants. And the sides of the plants aren't part of the plant's hitbox. Every pixel of Mario's body isn't part of his hitbox either.
That is the fact, you can either stop being dumb and accept it. Or go and try yourself.
@Linuxdirk Which is very obvious for people who can read, yes. Sadly, most people have no idea what it means and doesn't care to find out, so they just write "Cheater, fake, hax" and stuff like that.
A run that breaks the rules is cheating. A fake run is a TAS labeled as a real time speedrun. A hacked run has changed the game's code.
@Tomtelala Point is, I have tried, since I've been playing the game since release. I'd have a better perception, just because you lack the ability to justify yourself, and or prove yourself. Your argument is circulatory, making it as intelligent as the average American 1st grader. Example: does 2+2=4? Nope it equals 5, does 2+2=4? Nope it equals five. Never ending right and wrongs. You've proved nothing but you inability to prove yourself.
@Kinesis17 The thing is, I can't really say anything here as "evidence". There are, as said, ways to easily test on the emulator. You can also make a script that shows the hitboxes of both Mario and the enemies while you are playing. Where you can clearly see that every single pixel of the sprites aren't part of the hitbox, and that is also common knowledge in nearly all games ever made.
That's simply the way it is, and if you have truly tested, you should know as well.

That's simply the way it is, and if you have truly tested, you should know as well.
@Tomtelala I can back this up. Playing mario on my 3ds (yes, it's a direct port of the original), it's REALLY easy to jump over a piranha plant and "hit" it without taking damage.
@CocoaBeanWhip That isn't cheating though. A TAS is a different type of speedrun with different rules. You just slow down the game and use save states when recording. And when you follow those rules, you aren't cheating.
If you would make a TAS and say it is a real time speedrun, you would have been cheating.
@NitemareX9 You mean when he lands on the turtle? Or when he makes the walljump? None of them are anything special or weird looking for the one who knows the game.
@69furax69 You are able to touch mos of the last fireball without dying. The game wasn't designed with perfected hitboxes, so you are able to do so without getting killed.
There is NO CHEATING in this TAS and everything done can be done on a console.
@Haseo190 Of course, I perfectly know that this is a TAS. This doesn't say the run is either fake, hacking or is using cheats, as that's not what TAS means. People who think otherwise need to get themself some information about it before making dumb statements.
Look at all the people who keep arguing over the legitimacy of this speed run. It clearly says at the beginning of the video and in the description that it's "tool-assisted."
I think hes using cheats like "god mode" or something i paused it multiple times on spots where he is in places he should have died. he jumps in the middle of a lot of the plants but i kinda let that slide. but this is unexceptionable he jumps threw the fire at 4:57 he also hits one of the spikes browser throws.
@14DarkMatt15 There are no god mode cheats, or any other cheats, in this run. The reason why it looks like he's getting hit is because of bad hitboxes in the game.
The sides from the plant can't hurt you for example. At 3:07 he's below a turtle, but lands on it anyway, that is because the game is made that if Mario is in his falling animation, he will land on en enemy no matter where he hits it.
@Tomtelala he still jumps right threw the fire. the fire is directly on his body. i knew about the turtles an jumping and what not, that made since to me. i also said that i would give the plants leeway because i know of the bad hit-boxes and figured that also since the game is speed up it may have looked like it more then it appeared but that still does not explain the fire that was on his body .
@joeblot147 I presume you mean from the turtles he killed? The game is programmed that as long as Mario is in his falling animaion, he will land on an enemy no matter where he touches it. That's why he can't land on the koopas from below.
@hoghash78 You can be that close without dying. The hitboxes aren't perfect in this game. You can be inside the sides of the piranha plant without dying.
@spectraljew A Tool Assisted Speedrun is made using an emulator. You record in slow motion (Called Frame Advance) while using save states and rerecording. The idea behind it is to find out how fast a game could be beaten with perfect playing.
The game is exactly the same as on console though. So if you would have made the exact same input on a console, this would have been the result.

CocoaBeanWhip 4 months ago
@CocoaBeanWhip That isn't cheating though. A TAS is a different type of speedrun with different rules. You just slow down the game and use save states when recording. And when you follow those rules, you aren't cheating.
If you would make a TAS and say it is a real time speedrun, you would have been cheating.

tool assisted isn't fair for all the other people who actually speed run the effing game
TheBetterGamer 4 months ago
@TheBetterGamer Of course it is. A TAS even helps the real time runners out.
You shouldn't compare a TAS to a real time run anyway, they are two completely different things.

@NitemareX9 You mean when he lands on the turtle? Or when he makes the walljump? None of them are anything special or weird looking for the one who knows the game.

@69furax69 You are able to touch mos of the last fireball without dying. The game wasn't designed with perfected hitboxes, so you are able to do so without getting killed.
There is NO CHEATING in this TAS and everything done can be done on a console.

DJGraveshoT 5 months ago
@DJGraveshoT This TAS is not fake. You can touch the sides of the plants without getting hurt. The hitboxes in the game weren't perfectly well made.

not impressed, i beat it in 5:31 when i was 12, no tsa.............and i died once
feezellz 5 months ago
@feezellz Funny how you say it's not impressive because you got a 31 seconds worse time. And it's TAS, not tsa.
5:31 is still not bad for completing the game however.

@TheIcecubeking No, he isn't. The game wasn't hacked in anyway, neither did he use any cheat to make this TAS.
You fail at knowledge.

Haseo190 5 months ago
@Haseo190 Of course, I perfectly know that this is a TAS. This doesn't say the run is either fake, hacking or is using cheats, as that's not what TAS means. People who think otherwise need to get themself some information about it before making dumb statements.

Look at all the people who keep arguing over the legitimacy of this speed run. It clearly says at the beginning of the video and in the description that it's "tool-assisted."
SuperMoss15 5 months ago
I think hes using cheats like "god mode" or something i paused it multiple times on spots where he is in places he should have died. he jumps in the middle of a lot of the plants but i kinda let that slide. but this is unexceptionable he jumps threw the fire at 4:57 he also hits one of the spikes browser throws.
14DarkMatt15 5 months ago
@14DarkMatt15 There are no god mode cheats, or any other cheats, in this run. The reason why it looks like he's getting hit is because of bad hitboxes in the game.
The sides from the plant can't hurt you for example. At 3:07 he's below a turtle, but lands on it anyway, that is because the game is made that if Mario is in his falling animation, he will land on en enemy no matter where he hits it.
Tomtelala 5 months ago
@Tomtelala he still jumps right threw the fire. the fire is directly on his body. i knew about the turtles an jumping and what not, that made since to me. i also said that i would give the plants leeway because i know of the bad hit-boxes and figured that also since the game is speed up it may have looked like it more then it appeared but that still does not explain the fire that was on his body .
14DarkMatt15 5 months ago
@14DarkMatt15 Most of the edge of the fire in the water can't hurt you. You can have the whole "fire ball" inside Mario's head without dying.
The game isn't sped up anything. This is normal running speed. The in game timer runs faster than normal seconds.
Tomtelala 5 months ago
what does he mean with "tool-assisted"?
777digger777 5 months ago
@777digger777 It means the run was record with an emulator in slow motion (Called Frame Advance) while using save states and rerecording.
Tomtelala 5 months ago
he should have died at 3:24......
joeblot147 6 months ago
@joeblot147 I presume you mean from the turtles he killed? The game is programmed that as long as Mario is in his falling animaion, he will land on an enemy no matter where he touches it. That's why he can't land on the koopas from below.

@TheSnesWalkthrough At about 3:07 is such place you mean I presume?
However, the game is designed so that as long as Mario is in his falling animation, he'll land on an enemy no matter where he hits it.

what was the tool's assistance? I'm not fully knowledgeable about TASs, so I was wondering if somebody could fill me in.
spectraljew 6 months ago
@spectraljew A Tool Assisted Speedrun is made using an emulator. You record in slow motion (Called Frame Advance) while using save states and rerecording. The idea behind it is to find out how fast a game could be beaten with perfect playing.
The game is exactly the same as on console though. So if you would have made the exact same input on a console, this would have been the result.
