Tomb Raider IV Speedrun Part 30 - Menkaure's Pyramid in 1:52
0:50 - Here's quite a funny bug. If the bug goes inside the room with you and you kill it with grenade, the scorpion will attack you after couple seconds, but for some reason he kills you instantly no matter what amount of health you have. There are 3 ways to avoid this: 1) Kill the scorpion - Takes a bit more time and one more grenade, which I can't spare. 2) Get lucky - If you manage not to kill the bug, the scorpion will kill it instead of you. 3) Get even more lucky - It's possible to avoid instant death if you jump through a corner at the very same moment.
0:56 - Jumping through a corner to avoid spawning very annoying scorpion.
1:01 - This crawl-corner bug is almost impossible to do without 0:56. It's an alternative path to get near the pyramid and only saves couple seconds. Found by rr_carroll.
1:25 - There is alternative path to get onto the pyramid found by xRikux89, but you would have to get rid of some enemies, which wouldn't really save time in the end.
1:47 - Flare-wall bug to get the revolver faster. Due to the keyhole, it is not possible to do it right under the revolver.
@Arthidaris No, there are separate glitched and non-glitched categories. It's true that no one (AFAIK) has run TR4 non-glitched, probably because it's the longest TR game.

Correct me if i'm wrong but most of the speedruns are based on bug abusing. Which is awesome btw can learn few tricks overall
