See also Bismuth's explanation of a Super Mario Bros world record speedrun, which includes a short argument by me about why video game speedrun breakdowns are interesting to watch even if you don't play video games. Watch the whole explanation - it's a really fascinating little hack. It's only later, during the explanation of how he got from level 7 to the final screen so quickly, that you realize Mario's panicky idiot behavior is actually the player actively reprogramming the game to open up a wormhole to the ending. And once in level 7, Mario races around randomly, letting opportunity slip away like a blindfolded birthday boy unwittingly steering himself away from the piñata. The first couple minutes go exactly as you'd expect, but the speedrun takes a weird turn when, instead of using the second warp whistle to go to level 8, he uses it to go to level 7. After a fellow named Zikubi beat the speedrun record for Super Mario Bros 3 with a time of just over three minutes, speedrun analyst Bismuth made the video above to explain how he did it.by changing the game with the gameplay itself.
