Tetris is a game from the 80s that reached its peak popularity with the release of the Game Boy version. If we disregard the notion that he wasted an immense amount of time playing a video game that could have been spent honing his intellectual faculties, the fact still remains that he accomplished something while playing an antiquated game that most people haven't played in earnest for years, and far fewer people have even attempted to reach the "kill screen". In order for an accomplishment to be truly great, it has to contribute something to society, and it has to be something that hundreds of thousands or even millions of people have attempted to accomplish.
@@RobbieStacks90 I don't know about the society part, and achievement can mean anything to any person. Overcoming grief is a personal achievement, and this kid did something. So, I don't get the point of your comment. You started something and then moved away from your point with that "society" thing.
@@RobbieStacks90The kid is 13 years old... You think he is gonna use his time to learn another language, study environmental science or brush up on his math? No, he is gonna go out and play with his friends or just stay home and play video games/ Do other stuff At least now the kid will be remembered as the first person ever to beat Tetris
This made me so mad. She say's "it's not a life goal" and it wasn't, it was his current goal and he completed it at 13 when no one else had. I hope he goes on to do more amazing things.
It upset me, too. I think it really struck a cord with Charlie. I don't know that I've ever seen him signal his followers to go harass someone. He was laying it on thick. You'd think the lady was a war criminal.
She voiced an opinion and a valid one at that. Ten years from now when this guy is playing Roblox in his mom's basement after getting fired from his job at Pizza Hut because he ignored his alarm clock, whose fault will it be? Someone needs to teach these kids about what it means to be responsible people.
I'm a 50 year old woman and I'm damn proud of this kid. He beat a machine in what the developers of the game thought was impossible. Meanwhile, this vulture of a woman speaks from a tv prompter. Literally anyone could do her job. lol.
Yeah, she was salty that this 13-year-old kid accomplished something that dwarfs anything that she has accomplished in her frankly overextended life, so she decided to belittle him to make herself feel better I'm glad that people understand how much of an accomplishment this is, and are giving the kid the applause he deserves (and are giving the devil woman the hate she deserves)
@@electric_chrisjust because the kid did something impressive doesnt mean shes wrong lol. If a 13 yearold is beating a game grown men cant beat he can benifit from fresh air
@@theredgoblin562 It was still rude to say that, and the intent behind her saying that was to belittle him clearly. Then she said “beating tetris isn’t an impressive live goal.” lol gtfoh
@@theredgoblin562Imagine you're celebrating some achievement, and a person like you comes along, butthurt and saltly, saying something like "Why don't you stop looking at the screen and outside". 🤦 "well i am right, ScReen Not GoOd FoR yoUr EyEs"
The lady, Jayne Secker, is the daughter of a television and radio presenter. So she didn't even get into her job on her own merit alone. She's basically a nepo baby minus the celebrity.
@@SlothofBangkok Dont worry, people like her got roasted so fast the reason for that is simply because she is a perfect villain. Remember once theres a Host Awards call other people who watch RUclipsr plays video games a joke ? Guess what that RUclipsr is Pewdiepie and you know how people go crazy to defend their idol.
Bro, not necessary. She seems horrible but just because she’s a bitch doesn’t mean you should be hunting down her personal info. Even Charlie has denounced this shit. I hope you’re joking and if you are you gotta give it more of a punchline.
Doesn't sound very fair. You're comparing adventuring our solar system to sitting in front of a screen for 100+ hours. Which by the way, can't be healthy for you. So yeah, the kid should touch grass
@@OfficialGoldety Belittling a child's genuinely incredible achievement that was dedicated to his deceased father. Uh... Yeah, that's mocking, clownshoes.
13 years old kid dedicated his achievement to his deceased father, and some miserable middle aged woman insulted him on live. I feel like her kids hates her, as much as we do, after seeing what she said on live tv.
Amazing kid: "I'd like to dedicate this world record to my recently deceased father." Self-loathing Witch: "That's cute. But shut up kid, and get your life together already."
I'm almost 60...a retired school superintendent. When my friends were going to keggers and partying, I was at the arcade playing Track & Field by Konami. One of my "accomplishments" was driving the entire distance of I35, north to south, setting the high score on every machine I could find. If you remember chasing SPK on these machines, you're welcome. And until they retrofitted the game with roller balls, I held those scores for a couple of years. What was the value of that accomplishment? Seriously, what did I get out of it? What message should I have been giving all the gamer kids in my schools who spent countless hours doing stuff like this? Well, it helped me escape a generational cycle of alcohol abuse, poverty and incarceration. It fostered the belief that if I set my mind to something, even something that seemed impossible, I could do it. It taught me that just because other people found no value in what I was doing, even people I respected, that they didn't get to determine what had value for me. When my run was over and I chased other goals, I did so believing in myself. Other than those things, gaming was a complete waste of my time. Congratulations Willis Gibson! Seriously...good for you.
@@NotTheBestRUclipsr Sorry, I missed this reply. I was a small school superintendent. So, I knew the kids. I felt like I had a real opportunity to help them and give them a little hope. I believe the generation of kids I worked with are incredible and I have faith in them. More faith in them than in my own generation. Since retiring, the only thing I've ever missed are the kids.
Her literal job as opposed to her figurative one? As far as I am aware, there are only real jobs out there. Even sinecures are actual jobs. What did I tell you people about using the words "literal" and "literally"? We're putting an end to that.
Jokes on her, her reputation is now forever just going to be "that out of touch boomer news lady that laughed at a kid breaking a record" and she'll just have to live with that
@@theguywhoisaustralian1465 that, but also, Nobody is going to go to that news channel if she was there. She has actively ruined both her, and the news channel's reputation like this.
"As a mother" she says before she shits all over a child's accomplishment, tells everyone all they need to know about how terrible of a mother she must be. Congrats to that kid and he dedicated the accomplishment to his father who passed... how can she as an adult bully a kid, let alone a grieving kid.
@@rodrign007 It was right when he started to talk over the video before she says "step away from the screen". If you listen carefully or go search the original clip, you'll hear her fully.
@@That_Guy19052 I'm genuinely worried that her children will commit suicide after all the bullying they are about to receive (because of what she said) And the worst part is she will report about it and make it seem like it was the kid's fault
@@daviddoxuan3733 Improving sleep quality and mental ability is the same claim literally every mobile game ad ever made makes. You know what actually improves sleep quality and mental ability? A good sleep schedule.
@@supermexicanroboninja3116no shit lmao but there are literal studies that have proved Tetris can improve these things. Every mobile game can’t make that claim.
@@supermexicanroboninja3116 dude. You just stated the equivalent of "you know paper is made out of trees?". There have been studies that prove tetris can actually do these things
She is the same person who on national TV started complaining about her tenants and said rental prices are the renters' fault. Couldn't expect anything better from her.
She is the type of mother that told her kids that they are "wasting time" by doing art and then when her kids became a famous artist she demanded that they share the money with her because it's their "responsibility".
Insane how someone with no life purpose other than berating and belittling people on live television can look so smug. Her children must really love her.
For our sins we deserve eternity in hell, but God loves us so much he came as Jesus to pay the price of our sins through living a perfect life for us, his death and his resurrection so we can be forgiven and receive eternal life if we follow and obey him in faith FOR LIFE , Jesus loves u and desires to have a personal relationship with you of love, peace, redemption and obedience ✝️ May Jesus bless you, repent of your sins and turn to Christ before it's too late 🙏🏿❤️❤
I’m not surprised she’s a British newscaster. Our media over here have some of the dullest, most sarcastic, soulless, passive aggressive people on television.
What's really amazing was they had Alexi Paginov and Mark Rogers speak to this child congratulating him. People have been trying to do this for nearly four decades and that is a huge accomplishment I'm sure his father is very proud since he dedicated the stream to him
what a kind, caring and lovable woman i hope she doesn't shit on someone much younger than her just because he pulled off one of the greatest and most difficult feats in the history of an aging game, and belittle his dad who just passed away just because she makes banger content and hates woke culture.
literally a kid enjoying himself, and she is like "LMAO enjoying yourself isn't a life goal" like, lady, it most definitely is a life goal to enjoy yourself, just because you don't know how to experience joy, don't mean that we should all be miserable with you.
Preach! 👏 We don't live forever, so we might as well enjoy what we got. To be able to experience joy is a wonderful feeling especially when times are rough, so seeing a kid get a pretty difficult achievement is very awe-inspiring. That news anchor clearly be displaying petty envy to try to put down a kid's achievement.
I don't think Tetris is very fun especially when it's on the highest difficulty. I would expect it to be extremely frustrating since it's basically half luck and extreme reaction time but good for the kid if he somehow enjoys it....
@@Christina..22121well it's not just the kid, despite the game being one of the oldest ever it still has a massive following and competitions are still held every year! I can respect the fact that you so not like it but there is undeniably some kind of magic to that game, possibly precisely due to its treacherous simplicity.
i heard about Blue Scuti from another video about this. Scuti publicly stated that he would go head to head with someone else to beat them, and as that other person was streaming an attempt he heard Scuti was extremely close, stopped his game, watched Scuti's game, and was genuinely hyped when Scuti got the killscreen. The fact that even Scuti's biggest opponent was excited for him despite being close to getting it himself makes this whole story even more awesome
i believe the player you mentioned is Fractal,the current CTWC world champion. the classic tetris community is extremely competetive and at the same time friendly,fair and shows great sportsmanship...which is very rare in a competetive environment. if you are interested in a grea match i would suggest the 2023 CTWC finals between Fractal and Sydnev :)
She says "beating tetris isnt a life goal" but id say, sitting in front of a camera reading a script and talking down on 13 year old kids isnt a life goal. She clearly has a loveless relationship 🤣🤣
@@Bfkcjscbsnjcyou could say that message many different ways, but the woman chose to shoot the kid down completely metaphorically. Yes maybe the kid might need to experience life but he’s 13, and when I was 13, I was barely doing shit cuz I just went with the flow. At the age of 13, this kid still did something basically nobody could do. He’s good with his hands, his mind, and his reflexes. And he’s human. Imagine accomplishing something that doesn’t give profit or income, but yet you did it, like building something great. And it took you days to do it, maybe even months. You maybe even paid money for it. That is what that kid did. He is now known as someone who accomplished something great for the first time. I wonder what you did to have the right to talk down to someone who has way more potential than you at simply accomplishing, whether it is worth it or not. Pathetic.
This isn’t even the first time she’s said something horrible on-air. She had to make an apology in 2019 for belittling the housing crisis and saying it’s the tenants fault (as she was a landlord)
When my Mum was a kid, her brother (my uncle, obviously) came second in a school test. My Grandad's response? "What was wrong with first?" I should point out my Grandad mellowed out immensely in later life, so much so that my Mum was flabbergasted at how great he was to my brothers and I.
A lot of Americans are surprised by this but this is par for British Culture sadly. No matter what British Youth achieve we get nothing but shit from the older generation.
She would have been proud of him had he won the Scripps National Spelling Bee or earned a National Merit Scholarship. I agree with her position that "beating" a forty-year-old video game is an immense waste of time. Additionally, if you watched the video, you would have noticed that all this gaming has inhibited his social skills. There is no way he is going to procure an attractive girlfriend if he behaves like that in public. If you were her son, all she would expect from you is that you be academically accomplished and confident in social settings.
@theomaid i beg to differ... if moderated gaming can actually be very beneficial for the brain, and it can also lead into very prosperous career paths if done right. i imagine that kid does have a healthy balance and spaced out his practice. he's also making money from streaming, which makes it a useful job for a little cash
“Step away from the screen and go outside and get some fresh air”, said the woman whose life goal is to read from a teleprompter in an air conditioned newsroom talking about other’s achievements.
Not to mention, the community surrounding it was extremely wholesome. When Fractal was racing Blue Scuti, he heard that Blue Scuti was about to hit the true kill screen, he stopped to watch his stream and was immediate excited and supportive instead of being mad or jealous. Thats rare and it warmed my heart to see it
Runners chasing a milestone will rarely get mad or jealous of a competitor reaching their common goal first, they *know* the kind of insane grind it's taken to get there, they've been living it as well. It's their audiences, or downright outsiders looking in that expect the race to be some kind of cutthroat cockfight where they're constantly eyeing each other like they're about to steal their prize.
My favorite part of the story is that there was another guy on Twitch streaming his attempts to beat it, and when he was told that the 13 year old was close, he told his chat to go to the kid’s stream to watch history be made. Then he cheered him on and congratulated him, even though they were, “rivals”.
Imagine being a full grown adult and making fun of a 13 YEAR OLD for being the first to beat a classic video game. That’s next levels of “I hate myself so I take it out on others”
To put yourself in her shoes, I would not be surprised if her own children are having addiction issues with video games. She is projecting her own anger
She's not making fun of him; she's proffering life advice. Her daughter would never date a boy like him. It's admirable that she's out there saying what other adults won't tell him. If he takes her advice and changes the way he conducts himself, he might be able to find himself a girlfriend when he gets to HS.
I honestly feel like this is a fireable offense. Bullying a 13 year old is just wrong. Bullying a 13 year old's achievement that was dedicated to their late Father is plain EVIL.
No wait a minute, let's not become the very thing we all insult... If this was someone else calling for a person to be fired over something so trivial.. Disgusting yes but still trivial we would all be ripping them to shreds and saying omg what's wrong with the world that you can't even make a mistake without getting fired. This women is a piece of trash but calling for her to be fired over it is just too far. By doing so your becoming the Karen's you sought to destroy
This is why you don't work in HR. She should be lauded for giving the kid real advice. There's nothing wrong with playing video games in moderation. He has an addiction that will likely come at the expense of his social life and compromise his academics. Why is that so hard for people to grasp?
I'm 52 and I'm impressed . Good for him . I always encourage my kids to go for it in games . It's a self goal . There's worst stuff out there that they can be doing .
Imagine them having no limits to reaching their goal even for a simple game. It does quite alot to their future. Their best action is to understand it.
Right?? He has his whole life ahead of him too. He is going to be a god of the pro gaming scene one day if he goes that route. If not, he’s already proven that he has the determination of will to accomplish theretofore impossible tasks. He has the willpower to accomplish whatever he sets his mind to.
Kids these days are built different especially in tetris both nes and guideline tetris, best guideline tetris player is like 18-20 or something and was given that title at like 16-18 or something around that age. even in nes tetris, the 7 time world champion was defeated by teenager a couple years ago.
@@Izzyfoshizzy710 watch some competitive tetris. its not just kids pressing buttons. the insane speeds the game plays at and the split second decision making one has to have to play at those levels is well beyond what regular people can do.
See the difference is that the once-in-a-lifetime goal of being the first person to beat Tetris is in fact a life goal, and belittling others for their goals and achievements, is not.
The fact that she almost acted as if what she said WAS he lifegoal; she was so insanely proud of that stupid joke she made about some awesome kid who beated something never thought to be possible. Why, especially if you are a parent, would you ever try and belittle not only an ecstatic child, but a prodigy?
Tbh I think most western MSM is low level these days... Pretty much politicized propaganda from all sides of the spectrum. At least pharmaceutical advertising is illegal here
. A few years ago she was forced to apologize (which wasn't actually an apology) to someone she insulted and belittled in an interview about no-fault evictions, she insinuated that young people "choose" to rent, and that many are stupid and they can't change a light bulb, and that this is apparently reason enough for a landlord (which she admitted she is) to evict people from their property.
@@MattGOG666let’s take this out of a video game scenario. Let’s say a cycling race no one has been able to finish. A guy finally beats it after 30 years, should he not be congratulated more for something many have tried and failed over a job quite literally anyone could get.
close minded, really common and not enough brain capacity to have certain understanding that her perspective doesn't share everyone else's perspective...
Say what you want, but if you ever go into the video game industry -- whether it's video game development or not -- being able to say "I was the first person to get the kill screen on a beloved game that everyone knows" is a hell of an icebreaker, at the very least.
Quite sad that even people born in the 80s are like this i would hope to start seeing more modern high tech people but i think video games were still not everywhere back then. and women tend to be late to the party when it comes to video games and other things. even with my generation (born in the 90s) i think like 99% of the men are gamers while only 20% of the women i think with people born in the 2000s its more like 66% of the women. and with people born in the 80s its about 80% of the men and only 5% of the women. with people born in the 70s its maybe 33% of the men and 2% of the women. with 60s 5% of men and 1% of women and with 50s 2% of men and 1% of women .
@@krazyxki Yea but gaming doesn't have to be manly. i don't think tetris is a mens game maybe if its fifa or cod .i used to play world of warcraft it was considered nerdy but like 25 % of the players i encountered were women. because they could play as healers and be social .
I love how she insinuates he’s not being productive but her job is literally just sit in front of a camera reading things other people have written for you
According to your logic, Peter Jennings and Barbara Walters were useless. She's disseminating news for worldwide audiences. She has one of the most important jobs in the world. He's out there wasting time beating a forty-year-old video game. It's fine to play Tetris every once in a while, but this is every day with this kid!
@@Bfkcjscbsnjc why so mad? It’s okay to do cool things in video game history as a 13 year old, he has the rest of his life to do other things if he wants to
The words i'm hearing from her - 'so what?! I've beat my husband more times than you've beat an old game.' She's absolutely pathetic to be attacking an 11 year old child! Congratulations to him!
@@Ben-Doverbich Even if she was just telling facts, she would be shit at that too, her tone of voice is sleep inducing, definitely not what you want on TV.
@@ForgottenedRBLX she will be forgotten by next week. Hell,I’m British I’ve got sky I’ve never even heard of her, he will be remembered forever as the first and possibly only person to do this,
He also made his first appearance in the Classic Tetris World Championship last year and made it to the semifinals. For the Tetris community, it's exciting to hear about this but not surprising due to how talented he already was.
Nobody watches the Classic Tetris World Championship. The money in e-sports has always belonged to FPSs. To a lesser extent, sports games (Madden) in the 2000s. He's going to have to develop actual skills. Even if he does start a "career" as a streamer, he will lack the relevant social and academic skills to get another job. His parents need to have a serious talk with him and explain that this is just a hobby.
Whats crazy is this kid will be remembered in the gaming world forever and pulled off what was thought to be an impossible feat. Yet this lady just reads words off a teleprompter and thinks shes accomplished more than him.
Yep. Society told her she's made it cause she has some basic level career. The world we live in sucks our humanity away. Only as good as the job you have, which is meaningless majority of the time.
She's telling him "go outside" when he's a 13-year old, still in public school, and can't have a job until 16 depending on th job. Not to mention, the gaming industry these days provides him an avenue for a potential better career than most jobs can offer.
There are other things to do outside than work. You can go for a jog, garden, bird watch, go on a hike, do parkour, etc. Gaming all day everyday for your entire life will just make you some fat mf.
@@OfficialGoldety You don't know anything about this kid personally other than he has a hobby of playing tetris. Why do you think he's always indoor? There's absolutely no reason to believe he's not already doing other things outside. Also, as you can see on his photos, he's not fat.
@@OfficialGoldety How do you know the kid doesn’t do anything else other than play video games? This is one small part of his life. Also this is pretty ironic coming from someone who posts only gaming content. Maybe you’re jealous he did something noteworthy and you didn’t?
Huge achievement for this kid. This woman obviously isn’t happy with her life and never achieved any goals of hers if she has to make fun of little kids achieving their goals.
She reminds me of my mother. Cold, berating, childish, the only thing she's not showing (on screen at least) is rage issues and abuse. And then goes "Why is he mad at me for? I never did anything wrong."
@@ThePeanutJammy I did move out, at the age of 26-27 actually. And I managed to block her phone number as well. (Why didn't I try to get out of there when I was 18? Gaslighting... as well as never being taught that you can search for new shelters on your own at the age of 18.)
I told my mom about this just to see what she thought. She ended up agreeing with the statement that he needed to go outside. Needless to say I'm never telling her if I ever make some kind of achievement.
Aye bro, just wanna say if you ever hit any achievements, ima be here waiting to hear all about it, in spite of your mother. You deserve better than that shit. Set your goals , whatever they may be, and aim high. I’m high. Happy new years kid. 🎉
To be fair, did you explain history of the record? I think most people think "beating" tetris is simply maxing out score instead of tech wizaedry, me included before watching the mini documentary
yeah it's weird because our parents generation doesn't realize that you can do other things besides work all day and be in a rugby league. You can also enjoy video games and work out and be in sports and do outdoor things. Boomers, busters and inbetweeners just don't seem to get that video games are just another thing to do. Funny enough, if the kid were inside reading a book all day, she'd probably take no issue with it. And if she did, well I'd just say he could be reading outside, and he'd still be reading. People are so confusing
If you want to feel better about this achievement, Alexey Leonidovich Pajitnov and Henk Rogers congratulate Blue Scuti for this game. It’s in the news and it teared me up.
She didn't even congratulate him, or give any context to make anything 'newsworthy.' This kid is now a part of gaming history, greiving the loss of his father, and sky news has the gall to tell him to go outside?
She's just jealous and confused why the kid that spends his time at home doing nothing but playing games gains more popularity than someone who won a dart championship. Maybe she needs to play some video games to understand.
She says it's not a life goal, it's not, he achieved it when he was 13, more than she's ever done as someone probably thrice his age. It is a fairly historic achievement.
Yeah, imagine being old enough to be the kid's grandma and your life is dedicated to the decaying husk that is cable TV news. You just know she's projecting with that shit.
@@theomaidmy brother in Christ, it is not our problem if she doesn’t care, it is our problem that she made fun of a kid for doing something actually impressive.

What a kind and mature woman and mother. I hope she doesn't shit on an innocent 13yo kid who made history dedicated to the memory of his dad who just passed, and try to justify it because she is anti-woke and makes _banger content_
If he were humble, he wouldn't have had to live stream or record himself "beating" Tetris. Also, there were only eight other people in the entire world staying up day and night to "beat" the game. For all the people who have played Tetris over the years, very few have made a concerted effort to beat the game; otherwise, someone would have accomplished this years ago. As a matter of fact, I'm convinced that multiple people have. Those cases just weren't documented. The anchorwoman is right. This addiction is unhealthy for him in every which way.
ah yes, she seems soooooooooo jealous of some kid playing a video game. Wow, what an "achievement". I hope one day I grow up to be a 13 year old who plays video games!
The kid just accomplished something that was originally only thought possible via AI, that in itself is admirable and inspirational. Especially nowadays when AI is just getting better and better at everything.
Even the guy who was expected to do it first stopped playing on stream to cheer him on. This was just an awesome, wholesome moment. Some people just want everyone else to be miserable.
What makes this so incredibly bizarre isn't just the fact that she's belittling somebody for "not doing anything with their lives." It's the fact that she said *that* to a **child,** someone who hasn't even gotten to the point where he really *should* have done something with his life yet.
Well, it's not just that he should, it's more he just can't. He's still a little too young for doing some adult stuff like how teenagers can. So what else is he supposed to do with all that time he just so happens to have.
Exactly. Most people at that age are still just messing around, not breaking records thought to be impossible for humans. And that’s completely fine and normal, kids have to be kids first. If anything, he’s an overachiever.
@@furbymaster4239That's the craziest part of this to me from that lady's argument. Like okay, lets say he goes outside, then what? He's still not technically doing anything. So just let him be a damn kid and have his fun regardless of if there's a roof over his head.
@@furbymaster4239 exactly! like what exactly does she want to achieve by telling him to go outside? most kids are fooling around outside while he’s over here breaking world records
Edit: It's obviously Grifters but why tf are you guys defending this Woman in the comments? God forbid a 13 year old get excited for something no one has done in *THIRTY FIVE YEARS* This woman obviously never had a happy life or just had parents that belittled her no matter what she did.
it's probably why she's projecting so hard on her kids with video games - when they don't get positive reinforcement for anything at home, where else to turn but parasocial interactions like gaming? feel bad for anyone that has to live with her honestly
His father was undoubtedly his best cheerleader from heaven and likely had the same reaction as his son. He will forever be remembered as a gaming legend.
If I were his father, I'd want him to maintain an outstanding GPA in school, pick up a foreign language or two, master the violincello, court the most attractive young woman in his class, and be captain of the baseball team.
She really flubbed that underhand pitch of a 'feel good' story. She just had to say 'He accomplished something that hasn't happened in ~40 years since the game came out, he dedicated it to his father, who recently passed. And now let's check in with the weather for the weekend.'
@@PuzzlePottage1390 Yeah, an American saying British culture is all about shitting on other people, ignoring that they shit on themselves most of all, is absolutly hilarious.

"its not a life goal" she says to a 13 year old who quite literally has his whole life ahead of him to make more life goals (regardless of the fact that such a feat is in fact a life achievement) i would argue at her age bullying a child on a news segment wouldn't be a place in life to be proud of....

i still cant believe how fucking grown adults could be so abnoxious that they have to go on television and rattle out a 13 year old with a dream, basically calling them a loser and a no life. This woman could never achieve something so amazing as this young man.
Not to mention he’s a literal thirteen year old and she’s harping on “life goals” like sorry he doesn’t have a concept of bills, mortgage, or more worldly desires I suppose? Let kids be kids and let kids enjoy being a kid.
That's exactly what I told my husband. What life goals is a 13 year old supposed to have, especially one who has recently lost his father! This achievement IS A LIFE GOAL of a 13 year old LMAO@@CaulkMongler
I'm probably one of the rare viewers that is in their early 40s but I wanted to say I've enjoyed your videos for years; since my daughter who is 25 shared them with me long ago. I have to say I'm proud of your integrity and consistent honesty with everything thrown your way, esp being an influential person on a public platform. I'm sure your parents are very proud! As a mom, whose daughter is an artist and always been a gamer, I would sit and watch her play often while enjoying her achievements in excitement with her. I'm exceptionally proud of her. And to see some woman who is probably a parent (at least is definitely old enough to be one) that is on a public platform, sh*t on a kid for his achievement in anything positive is downright disgusting. It's deplorable and I'm so proud of this kid! I have always loved Tetris & still do. That was such a cute moment to see his elation. Thanks for sharing it and keep up the great work!!
In the original clip she starts her insults with "as a mother." She literally told him as a mother to go outside. The fact he dedicated it to his late father makes the entire thhing just disgusting. I feel sorry for her kids. And happy for yours, parental support makes or breaks a spirit!
Love to read these wholesome comments. You are an awesome mom for sharing an interest in video games with your daughter! It means so much to a kid when their parents also enjoy and encourage their hobbies. It’s good memories I’m sure your daughter will never forget.
For anyone wondering why the crash happens, the score calculation function is super inefficient, but doesn’t pose an issue until very high levels. The score calculation will eventually take so long that the next frame has to be drawn during a critical function that shouldn’t be overwritten. This means that when the function exits, the game stops executing code and starts executing from RAM, eventually resulting in a stop command being generated, causing the game to crash.
Now let's ask her this, what was her achievement when she was 13yrs old? Shouldn't she be amazed that at such a young age, the boy finally beat the supposed to be "unbeatable" game for 3 decades. I mean, that is some serious dedication that no one could have ever pulled off.
oh her achievements are: being born to people with connections in the industry being born to people with connections in the industry and last, but not least being born to people with connections in the industry. impressive isn't it
She starts her statement with "as a mother" and then proceeds to humiliate a child on a live broadcast. Some mother she must be...

The ironic thing is that she said “as a Mom..”. She had one chance to be super cool to her kids and she blew it
Tetris is a game from the 80s that reached its peak popularity with the release of the Game Boy version. If we disregard the notion that he wasted an immense amount of time playing a video game that could have been spent honing his intellectual faculties, the fact still remains that he accomplished something while playing an antiquated game that most people haven't played in earnest for years, and far fewer people have even attempted to reach the "kill screen". In order for an accomplishment to be truly great, it has to contribute something to society, and it has to be something that hundreds of thousands or even millions of people have attempted to accomplish.

I'm almost 60...a retired school superintendent. When my friends were going to keggers and partying, I was at the arcade playing Track & Field by Konami. One of my "accomplishments" was driving the entire distance of I35, north to south, setting the high score on every machine I could find. If you remember chasing SPK on these machines, you're welcome. And until they retrofitted the game with roller balls, I held those scores for a couple of years. What was the value of that accomplishment? Seriously, what did I get out of it? What message should I have been giving all the gamer kids in my schools who spent countless hours doing stuff like this?
Well, it helped me escape a generational cycle of alcohol abuse, poverty and incarceration. It fostered the belief that if I set my mind to something, even something that seemed impossible, I could do it. It taught me that just because other people found no value in what I was doing, even people I respected, that they didn't get to determine what had value for me. When my run was over and I chased other goals, I did so believing in myself. Other than those things, gaming was a complete waste of my time.
Congratulations Willis Gibson! Seriously...good for you.

@@Christina..22121well it's not just the kid, despite the game being one of the oldest ever it still has a massive following and competitions are still held every year!
I can respect the fact that you so not like it but there is undeniably some kind of magic to that game, possibly precisely due to its treacherous simplicity.
i heard about Blue Scuti from another video about this. Scuti publicly stated that he would go head to head with someone else to beat them, and as that other person was streaming an attempt he heard Scuti was extremely close, stopped his game, watched Scuti's game, and was genuinely hyped when Scuti got the killscreen. The fact that even Scuti's biggest opponent was excited for him despite being close to getting it himself makes this whole story even more awesome
i believe the player you mentioned is Fractal,the current CTWC world champion.
the classic tetris community is extremely competetive and at the same time friendly,fair and shows great sportsmanship...which is very rare in a competetive environment.
if you are interested in a grea match i would suggest the 2023 CTWC finals between Fractal and Sydnev :)
Who ever said 80's movies couldn't be real life?!
it's nice to see people getting along.
it's okay to be competitive as long as it's still friendly, and this is more than that.

Not to mention, the community surrounding it was extremely wholesome. When Fractal was racing Blue Scuti, he heard that Blue Scuti was about to hit the true kill screen, he stopped to watch his stream and was immediate excited and supportive instead of being mad or jealous. Thats rare and it warmed my heart to see it
Fractal didn't even stop to watch Blue Scuti, he let his own run die to watch his competitor achieve the impossible.
Runners chasing a milestone will rarely get mad or jealous of a competitor reaching their common goal first, they *know* the kind of insane grind it's taken to get there, they've been living it as well. It's their audiences, or downright outsiders looking in that expect the race to be some kind of cutthroat cockfight where they're constantly eyeing each other like they're about to steal their prize.
Because that's what wholesome gamers doo
My favorite part of the story is that there was another guy on Twitch streaming his attempts to beat it, and when he was told that the 13 year old was close, he told his chat to go to the kid’s stream to watch history be made. Then he cheered him on and congratulated him, even though they were, “rivals”.

He achieved what a very large community hasn't achieved almost for 40 year, his age makes it even more crazy, this guy just became a legend
Right?? He has his whole life ahead of him too. He is going to be a god of the pro gaming scene one day if he goes that route.
If not, he’s already proven that he has the determination of will to accomplish theretofore impossible tasks. He has the willpower to accomplish whatever he sets his mind to.
Kids these days are built different especially in tetris both nes and guideline tetris, best guideline tetris player is like 18-20 or something and was given that title at like 16-18 or something around that age. even in nes tetris, the 7 time world champion was defeated by teenager a couple years ago.

"Beating tetris is not a life goal"
Neither is making fun of some kid's accomplishment, yet here we are
See the difference is that the once-in-a-lifetime goal of being the first person to beat Tetris is in fact a life goal, and belittling others for their goals and achievements, is not.
The fact that she almost acted as if what she said WAS he lifegoal; she was so insanely proud of that stupid joke she made about some awesome kid who beated something never thought to be possible. Why, especially if you are a parent, would you ever try and belittle not only an ecstatic child, but a prodigy?
Journalism isn’t a life goal either, the irony
As someone from the UK I’m sorry about the low level of journalism in this country
Tbh I think most western MSM is low level these days... Pretty much politicized propaganda from all sides of the spectrum. At least pharmaceutical advertising is illegal here
It's all good.
It's most of the dinosaur media nowadays.
Which is why it's dying off and it can't happen fast enough.
As someone from the USA I’m sorry about the low level of journalism in this country
You don't have to apologize for something you didn't do.
This is not even supposed to be journalism, it's morning "entertainment".
. A few years ago she was forced to apologize (which wasn't actually an apology) to someone she insulted and belittled in an interview about no-fault evictions, she insinuated that young people "choose" to rent, and that many are stupid and they can't change a light bulb, and that this is apparently reason enough for a landlord (which she admitted she is) to evict people from their property.
It’s funny because Willis beating tetris is probably a bigger achievement than she’ll ever have.

It's cause it is lol

Quite sad that even people born in the 80s are like this i would hope to start seeing more modern high tech people but i think video games were still not everywhere back then. and women tend to be late to the party when it comes to video games and other things. even with my generation (born in the 90s) i think like 99% of the men are gamers while only 20% of the women i think with people born in the 2000s its more like 66% of the women. and with people born in the 80s its about 80% of the men and only 5% of the women. with people born in the 70s its maybe 33% of the men and 2% of the women. with 60s 5% of men and 1% of women and with 50s 2% of men and 1% of women .

Not to mention he’s a literal thirteen year old and she’s harping on “life goals” like sorry he doesn’t have a concept of bills, mortgage, or more worldly desires I suppose? Let kids be kids and let kids enjoy being a kid.
@@CaulkMonglerExactly
Classic stereotype assumption, like maybe he DOES also “go outside” often. How tf would she know
@@CantTellYou fr shes a fucking news anchor how much sunlight could she possibly get
That's exactly what I told my husband. What life goals is a 13 year old supposed to have, especially one who has recently lost his father! This achievement IS A LIFE GOAL of a 13 year old LMAO@@CaulkMongler
Incredible how people cannot praise someone without belittling them before or after.
boohoo
@@OfficialGoldety Damn, u sure got him
Most people can, some people are just scumbags
she is the kind of person to give her kids a math textbook as a birthday present
I'm probably one of the rare viewers that is in their early 40s but I wanted to say I've enjoyed your videos for years; since my daughter who is 25 shared them with me long ago. I have to say I'm proud of your integrity and consistent honesty with everything thrown your way, esp being an influential person on a public platform. I'm sure your parents are very proud! As a mom, whose daughter is an artist and always been a gamer, I would sit and watch her play often while enjoying her achievements in excitement with her. I'm exceptionally proud of her. And to see some woman who is probably a parent (at least is definitely old enough to be one) that is on a public platform, sh*t on a kid for his achievement in anything positive is downright disgusting. It's deplorable and I'm so proud of this kid! I have always loved Tetris & still do. That was such a cute moment to see his elation. Thanks for sharing it and keep up the great work!!
In the original clip she starts her insults with "as a mother." She literally told him as a mother to go outside. The fact he dedicated it to his late father makes the entire thhing just disgusting. I feel sorry for her kids. And happy for yours, parental support makes or breaks a spirit!
Love to read these wholesome comments. You are an awesome mom for sharing an interest in video games with your daughter! It means so much to a kid when their parents also enjoy and encourage their hobbies. It’s good memories I’m sure your daughter will never forget.
You seem like a great mother and person in general. I'm happy for you and your daughter ❤
That's all any kid really wants is just there parent to be involved in there life and care about them
W mom
Even the person he was competing against was so happy for him. Like she was the only one to be not happy for this kid.
I love how after all these years, Charlie still brings up the Mr Krabs speedrun. Truly a legendary moment in history
Nice pfp looks familiar but idk why

@@MaidenlessRunt-mz7zm the dudes pfp has the ELDEST RINGS of them all, it would make a great souls-like game cover
For anyone wondering why the crash happens, the score calculation function is super inefficient, but doesn’t pose an issue until very high levels. The score calculation will eventually take so long that the next frame has to be drawn during a critical function that shouldn’t be overwritten. This means that when the function exits, the game stops executing code and starts executing from RAM, eventually resulting in a stop command being generated, causing the game to crash.
Now let's ask her this, what was her achievement when she was 13yrs old? Shouldn't she be amazed that at such a young age, the boy finally beat the supposed to be "unbeatable" game for 3 decades. I mean, that is some serious dedication that no one could have ever pulled off.
oh her achievements are:
being born to people with connections in the industry
being born to people with connections in the industry
and last, but not least
being born to people with connections in the industry.
impressive isn't it
Bro not even 3 decades- 4 DECADES. That's wild..congrats to Willis fr..❤❤🎉
Also it’s SkyNews basically the same t rash as OAN /Fox. Dont give it any respect
