As much as I appreciate the sentiments regarding "taking world records back" and whatnot, it is not something i'm interested in doing. To have speedrun the game for over a decade, and the effort gone into it all which words can't express there was never a more fitting end to any% for me than getting the 40. While it was by no means an invincible run it sort of concluded the any% saga for me personally which was an ongoing battle to achieve the milestones considered "perfect" at various times throughout the years.
Thanks for running any%, it was a pleasure to watch your 40 attempts last year. Getting the first 40 and getting the wr months later are two completely different goals, its insane it took 10+ months for someone to get the 2nd 40. That being said, you would still have the wr if you worked on your spin jump control more Kappa
Well said Behe. Records will always be broken but at the time you set an amazing benchmark. When is enough enough? I think someone who dedicates so much concentrated effort on developing a skill is best placed to answer this.
Oh. Hey Kott. Did you stop running the game? I was one of your rare viewers years ago... PS: Speedrunners deserve so much more views in general. It's just sad.
Dude this run was ACTUALLY INSANE. The no-hit on botwoon, the 'stun lock???' with the supers on ridley, the air dopple on phantoon, the perfect rng on draygon, and holy POOP the movement. Congrats, you really deserve it.
Amazing run, the movement feels so clean, almost optimazed in every single room, abusing every single mechanic that the game offers to shave time in every place. And is a treat to the eyes to watch this, especially because this game got me into speedruns, i tried to speedrun it myself and know how difficult it is. So congratulations for the sub 41, watching this run just made my day a lot better
I knew you would make it any day now. I can't congratulate you enough. Totally deserved achievement, behe, thanks for the beautiful runs up to this day. And for many more to come =')
Very well done mate, dedication and practice makes perfect. You and Zoast really have created your own bracket, you've both pushed this game so far. Good luck beating this one.
As someone who loves Super Metroid, I just wanted to stop by and say congrats. Just an incredible video to watch. If this speed run was a steak, I'd throw it away because it's just too well done.
Now THAT'S some good spin jump control right there. Took you long enough, but I'm proud of ya, kiddo. Still a few minutes slower than my best time, but don't feel bad, we used to play this game quite alot..
I watch these, having taken about 5 hours to complete the game for the first time, I saw how you did it, but I still don't know how you did it! This has been my absolute favourite game since boxing day 1994 when I bought it in Woolies for £15, the day after I got a SNES for the first time!
Everything before Phantoon was just pure perfection and even after than there were very few clear places where you could have done better. Even the escape was great. An absolutely phenomenal run. Congrats man!!!
I like to think I play this game at a well above average level. Then I watch something like this and realize I don't play this game at all. Congratulations on the sick run!
Even the game designers are like “dude this getting out of hand.” Another unreal record. Even after decades of play and years of following the speed run achievements, I always enjoy a great Super Metroid run!
Congrats Behemoth. It's about damn time you earn that crown back. It will be hard to beat this record. I was watching Oats play SM Impossible, and even he is like DAMN the new record will be hard to beat. I hope people understand how hard it is to go beat this game in under 1hr and 30 mins. Let alone beating the game under 1 hour. But the tier level of skill required to get times under 45 mins its a tier only a few players achieve. Beating the game in the 42s and 41s is hard. The level of skill these guys play at is insane. Congrats on the record, amazing job and now we have the 40s tier level play on Super Metroid Amazing, and a Game Time of 27.
This really blew my mind. I've never watched a speed run before, and Super Metroid remains the game I'm best at, and...I just...WTF. I had no idea you could skip bosses, and go without so many items (especially the plasma beam and the screw jump.) I didn't know you could beat Ridley BEFORE Draygon. And all of those weird tricks you did, especially to beat those karate bastards in lower Norfair??!! I CAN'T. I remember how excited my friend and I were when we finally beat it fast enough to see Samus in her bathing suit. HahaHAAA!
There's so few obvious possibilities for saving time here it's ridiculous. One time he had to stop to wait for a keyhunter, one missed starfall, one clearly missed jump, slight delay in Ridley fight, a bit slow escape after Draygon, Baby Metroid skip with 5 jumps etc. Very minor delays. Ledge grabs, wall jumps and mockballs are absolutely perfect all the way through. Incredibly consistent run all the way to the end. Nerves of steel. Beyond impressive.
I'm usually not for showing off, but that little bit of showboating you did while waiting on the big Metroid to get his sh*t together really tickled me. I remember the stress of that moment when I was playing this game for the first time when I was young. And HOLY SH*T! That was a work of art! This speed run should be in a gallery somewhere! I think Samus herself would say "I'm not worthy!" P.S. I feel as though Samus should have gotten naked (and wanted to) after a time like that.
Been checking your channel obsessively, waiting for this record to fall! Knew you would do it. Great running Behemoth! Your LN escape was incredibly fast. What was your favourite part?
Absoloutely fucking insane. It's a fact you have officially beat the game dude. You're the King Of Metroid Officially, it's a shame this is the end of any% but maybe we can look forward to the 100% ?

I can't believe Samus dismantled a piracy ring and destroyed an entire planet while I went downtown to get a coffee. This woman is incredible.
Said the toxic white male!
Just kidding!
She's amazing unlike current female heroines!
Next time make your own damn good coffee!
Do you think the true abilities of these characters are shown in speed runs?
This comment is still cracking me up
This made my day

You will take back what belongs to you. I know you will...long live BEHEMOTH!!
I can not fricken believe 40 was got with a mid/fast phantoon and not fast/fast.
Amazing.
Night is coming, ur content has been stealed for THIEFunity's needs by Koelniy, with great respects, more Samus AraAra for this run and good luck!
12:39 that health chunk had me sweating
I died there on a run once
This game will never get old.
You shaved a whole minute since the day Summoning salt made his video?Dayum boiiii!!well done dude!!

Such a marvelously executed run. Major congrats
Unreal run congratulations!!! That was amazing!!
Very well done mate, dedication and practice makes perfect. You and Zoast really have created your own bracket, you've both pushed this game so far. Good luck beating this one.
This was one of the first SM speedruns I watched, so watching it back now with a few years of experience was a treat. Awesome stuff. GG
Congrats ma dude! First person ever to go sub 41 .. no one can take that away from you!
The VHS run. Nice to finally see it.
What a run, amazing. Big congrats to you!
Amazing run. I haven't played this game since I was a kid but I remember how hard it is and how the movement is very precise. GG
Someone hit up my dawg, Summoning Salt. We need a history of super metroid speedrun part 2!
You ain't wrong. This is the game that keeps on giving.
True.
We all knew this was coming. Your runs have been improving so rapidly recently. Congratulations, it was a beauty.
Wow this is amazing!!! You're such an innovator, awesome!!!
Honestly if anyone asked a few years ago I would have NEVER imagined sub-41:00 was possible. Huge congrats man.
Daniel Holley not only a few years ago, but people called it impossible in summer 2018....
@@SolarMusicZ What changed? Is there a new strat?
@@firetrainer No. It's just that nobody thought anybody could play as consistent as behemoth does. He's an absolute beast.
Man this is absolutely insane. I knew you would get this eventually but still absolutely amazing to see. Congratulations!
A beautiful run. Congratulations!
That Ridley fight is some of the best shit I've ever seen...
OMG dude! I knew the sub 41 was just a matter of time. Amazing job!
Extraordinary run. Congrats behemoNold
I could not imagine a better run than this!!
Amazing and hilarious at the same time: you performed moves that shouldn't have even been allowed to be done. Awesome!
Man, that was beautiful :). Awesome. Grats !
Behemoth, the beast, the legend! Congrats!
Look that Ridley Brooo, Congrats for everything! Amazing run 👏👏👏👏😎
My freaking gosh behe, u are unstoppable
Amazing! Congrats, Behemoth!
You sir are indeed a Behemoth at the game. In most games you play actually. Behemoth sized Grats 👍 ✌
Sub 41, siiick! Congrats Behemoth!
As someone who loves Super Metroid, I just wanted to stop by and say congrats.
Just an incredible video to watch.
If this speed run was a steak, I'd throw it away because it's just too well done.

AMAZING stuff, congrats on the first sub-41!
He doesn't stop!
Awesome, absolutely awesome!
Wonderful execution the entire time

now that's a meme and a half
Why do I keep seeing that stupid comment😂😂😂
Dam, what a great run :) so clean
Gumpei Yokoi is smiling down on you, man. Major congrats.
you fucking did it!!!! My god congrats. So much congratulations. Cant wait to watch this tonight

behemoth just proved that any% bleeds. because he killed it FUNgineer. Great job duder
Lol 👍 :D
That was poetry in motion.
Congratulations Behemoth87!!!

I wish i could navigate my life the way he does this game.
Legendary...congrats man !!! :)
Everything before Phantoon was just pure perfection and even after than there were very few clear places where you could have done better. Even the escape was great. An absolutely phenomenal run. Congrats man!!!
Shaewaros I saw no obvious flaws - maybe a couple of minor things here or there.
That just makes it all the more exciting to imagine how much more time he can shave
Hero. Legend.
I like to think I play this game at a well above average level.
Then I watch something like this and realize I don't play this game at all.
Congratulations on the sick run!
SICK run man!!! SICK!!!
Twice I've watched. I can't change it. My mind is just that blown.

Are you kidding the game designers are probably really happy about it

Been checking your channel obsessively, waiting for this record to fall! Knew you would do it. Great running Behemoth! Your LN escape was incredibly fast. What was your favourite part?
Bro you are a god
Very Impressive!
Good Lord I just realized I might see a sub 40 with my own two eyes one day. I wouldn't be surprised if Behemoth were the one to pull it off.
Absoloutely fucking insane. It's a fact you have officially beat the game dude. You're the King Of Metroid Officially, it's a shame this is the end of any% but maybe we can look forward to the 100% ?
