When interacting with people in half-life, I act like a psychopath. This run brings that to a whole new level. *Guy walks in to see how you're doing *Walks up to the guy while holding live grenade Oh, and before you ask, I am doing okay. Thanks for asking. Now hold this for me.
19:47 - the observable universe is 93 billion (9.3x10^9) light years across. That means poop bucket is traversing approximately 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 observable universes... per second. Assuming there's an average 397g of daily poo in the bucket (I've got that in my search history now, thanks, TA) the relativistic energy of this bucket would be equivalent to 1.87x10^76 eV or about 3 x10^57 watt-seconds. This is equivalent to the total output of 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 suns.
When he said that speed, I was curious, thanks for doing the math, it's such an obscene ridiculous concept. I wonder if the fact that we can simulate that concept in a game has any merits elsewhere.. but probably just a poop bucket making infinities
9:08 the reason is known, it's caused by accidentally giving the prop vehicle physics, but most props don't have the right weight which causes them to have this strange noclip like effect, when the player makes contact with the prop they get vehicle physics as well and that's what leads them to fly, the reason that specific vehicle counts is because it's actually cut content from the game! the combine were originally supposed to drive around in these acp's and tanks but it was eventually scrapped. the vehicle still seems to have some remnants of code though
Oh! Does this explain the "poop bucket flying off into space" bug? Because vehicles' default behaviour to upright themselves can produce some crazy position and rotation velocity (involving a sudden vertical push after its wheels just contact a surface, from memory), making the vehicle fly around in a bizarre, mosquito-like pattern until it reaches an arbitrary destination. I'd imagine that the bucket's low weight coupled with no actual wheels attached means the prop keeps attempting to upright itself every physics tick, sending it off at the speed it does. Watching both clips of peng bumping the bucket frame-by-frame, it looks as if the bucket attempts to upright itself both times before being launched, which is very similar to the start of vehicles bugging out from their upright behaviour.
20:27 idk why but this whole sequence really got to me as being so absurd in a narrative sense. Demigod who is jet boosting through reality gets blocked by a simple iron gate, responds by time traveling, making a poop bucket fly to the edge of the universe instantly, and then very very VERY carefully starts putting two paint cans on top of eachother, constantly having to insure their safety by securing the time and place of every known object that exists every couple fractions of a second. All to pass through an iron gate.

@@tomatoanus he's done it again you are legit my favourite youtuber and have been since like 2018-19, ive watched all your videos and will watch every banger you drop
The addition of the literal "put a pin on [x]" in visual form is a nice addition to these videos. Makes distinguishing certain things clearer and helps make it easier to follow~.
you know I used to overlook those little moments where you talk directly to the viewer and tell us that if we're not feeling okay that's alright but I've been feeling bad lately and hearing you really helped me out, keep up the great content man and thanks for the little talk
I like to imagine Breen and the rest of the Combine Advisory watching Gordon unpinning a nade, gently setting it down, and getting his run up to jump above it before it detonates, watching him fly across a hundred meters like it was the most commonplace thing.
Half-life 2 is the most technical run I've ever saw, that's for sure. Been enamoured with it since I saw Gocnak run it ten years ago. Thanks for the video, dude.
The tech has come SO far since DWaMoV, that's for sure - back when they didn't know how to clip through the airboat gates w/ the vortigaunt, and talked that up as a holy grail for shortening the run. so cool to see it all realized and explained
I was looking for this comment. Esp hit me hard for some reason. Having bad times rn, and I really said out loud "fu dude, why'd you hit me with this" i liked and sub'd. so random but much needed
The duality of a man lol, this part made me unsub and click off the video, im watchign a video about half life speedruns and he turns the video into some sort of weird therapy session, super cringe, dudes tryna fill the part where he has nothing to say with insignificant yapping
Gotta say Tomato, your comments about mental health mean a lot to me and now that i am doing better, i can easily see how right your comments are. Thanks for spreading the message.
I feel exactly the same way, back when I was doing bad his comments were really nice, but they didn't really click for me Only now that I'm doing much better I realised how absolutely spot on he is
I love the addition of the song titles being included during the glitch breakdowns. Thanks so much for your hard work, I've been looking forward to your next upload for months! ❤️
I subbed to your channel when I was in a part of my life where your "No feeling is forever" section was far more useful than makes any sense. Thank you for keeping it up. And wow, that is a lot of dedication from Peng.
@@JustAJauneArc I think it's a reference to old "collect calls". You could call someone and if your message was short enough (such as "we had a bb it's a boy"), you could fit it into the name "input field", so to speak.

This was pre-texting, obviously.
Hey at one point I made a comment on your video where I was in a very bad place in life. Since then, I met my girlfriend, the love of my life, I got promoted twice at work, and my dad made a miraculous recovery after getting a liver transplant. We got more dogs after jack passed and they helped fill a lot of our life with joy. I moved back in with my parents to help take care of my dad but the girlfriend and I are talking about moving in together now that my dad doesn't need as much help anymore. Life is doing good, and I found that greener pasture. You are right, making that kind of final choice in a moment where you are low and not thinking clearly deprives you of life once it gets better, because life does get better. Your videos made me laugh and helped me though a tough time when I needed it, thank you

It's worth mentioning that the reason the two bounding boxes are called the Quake box and the Havok box are because the source engine is based off of the Quake video game source code, which is in charge of the movement and other things. Havok is the physics engine that Valve licensed for the source engine, and I guess for some reason they had to use a different bounding box for the two systems instead of just one. This explains why the Havok box takes priority when dealing with physics objects as it is the bounding box for the physics engine.
As a deaf person, i dont appreciate that you incorrectly subtitled fuck with "fiddlesticks" which i am only aware of and outraged by thanks to someone explaining this to me because, as previously stated, I am deaf. Did i mention my skull flaps ain't workin' all that good? Carry on
of course youtube shows me this when im struggling with suicidal thoughts... i just got hit in the face with kind words halfway through the vid like a train

Thanks Tomatoanus Having a real hard time right now and specificaly today. Your new video was a pure relief to see and klick on before doing all the stuff i had to do! I hope you have an above avarage day :)
I used to get really uncomfortable when you did the "wellness check" part of your videos because I guess I didn't feel like I deserved it or I just didn't believe you but I realize now that I am watching it. I guess I did make it through after all, thanks mr anus!
New video, lets goooo Also, reaching out is a really big gamechanger. Im going through tough times, the second toughest which are directly corelated to me figuring out the toughest times i ever had. Just talking to friends and wording out the things that are going through my head help me a lot with not drowning. Im looking forward to the day where i can say "help me stay on top" instead. So remember everyone, every burden gets harder when you face it alone. Find someone to talk to, its the first step.
I used to watch half life 2 speedruns back when I was a kid, must have been around 15 years ago so it's insane to me how much the runs have evolved. One way this has changed is that the video can be uploaded in one go and not in 5 minute parts lol but the fact you can skip cutscenes now is crazy. It used to just be flying across the map, bonking people on the head, and pressing Z at Alyx's butt during the cutscenes. Thanks for explaining all the new strats for the first game I saw a speedrun for:)
So you're telling me a significant amount of speedrun strategy in a game where a major plot point is figuring out how to use teleportation... is figuring out how to use teleportation.
20:19 hi, 🤓here! i felt like calculating how many universes the poop bucket actually zips over. if we assume that the unobservable universe is 15,000,000 times the size of the observable universe then (if i did the math right) the bucket is traveling at about 1*10^41 universes per second. it takes about 5s to get from the poop bucket launch to the attic so it wouldve traveled around 500 duodecillion universes by the time the save was made. it wouldve only taken ~3*10^-41s or 300 planck times or ~30 sextillionths of a zeptosecond (the smallest amount of time that has been mesured) to zip across the 3 mentioned universes
always really appreciate the mental health checkups, even if im doing okay right now it still makes me really happy and grateful, you are doing such a wonderful thing
I've been watching for a long time now, either due to your AGDQ New Vegas run or just before that I can't remember. This is the first time I've REALLY needed the "no feeling is final" speech and I just want to thank you for continuing to include it. You're a legend and by far my favourite speedrunning content creator, keep it up :)
The amount of "pickle pecker picker" variations is astounding. Cool speedrun video! Wondered what went on in HL2 and couldn't wrap my head around it. Seeing that Celeste was second picked by the patreon makes me jealous! That's like Tomato's whole doing well speech as an entire game!
As goofy and enjoyable as the commentary always is, its very wholesome to hear that trademark tomatoanus "this feeling will pass" in every video. Respect.
32:06 This caught me so off guard. I've been severely clinically depressed for the last few years and I haven't found many reassurances to be that comforting, but this came out of nowhere and really caught me off guard and to be honest, I appreciate it.
dude i been watching your videos for so long now and heard your kind words an endless amount of times. but this time it hit different.. being in deep depression its hard to remember that there are better times as well but hearing it gave me a bit more strength to make more adjustments and changes. thank you tomatoman.
Well shit... this is the first time the mental health message hit just as I needed it, as I was having a lot of difficult thoughts going through my head just as it started
Amazing video, it's so well explained even though it's voodoo magic what these speedrunners do. The mental health sections are the best thing on RUclips. Keep up the good work!
Dude, thank you so much for this detailed description, especially the tip about gaining speed ontop of trains going the opposite direction than you. I wasn't late for work today!
I don't like the camera insert of your self. OT adds nothing to the video and is distracting to what i want to watch, the game. I liked your videos better without it
I love learning about Half Life and FPS runs because you have to be sooo precise all the time and the movement is still inherently imprecise through most of it. It blows my mind.
Imagine being Barney, seeing your old friend from years ago randomly reappearing on a train, only to grab a random phone and start travelling faster than humanly possible, clip through a random wall and blast off into relativistic space. You get numerous message from your associates on how Freeman is somehow going FASTER, violating physics and sending buckets fast enough to cross the observable galaxy an unknowable amount of times over. Then, not even an hour later, you hear how he somehow also managed to destroy the citadel.
When interacting with people in half-life, I act like a psychopath. This run brings that to a whole new level. *Guy walks in to see how you're doing *Walks up to the guy while holding live grenade
Jokes aside, thank you for your videos. I always think the intermissions for encouragin words are a nice touch. While I'm doing fine myself, I hope these words reach people who need to hear them and I am also cheering for everyone to take every day head-on, do their best and work towards what they need to work on
Love the video! Great explanations and some funny bits. Also the little positive inspirational message in the middle was super cool and made me feel better today when I was having a kind of off morning, so thanks! :)
I can't tell you how much watching your videos got me through some tough times. Thank you for the interesting videos and motivational messages in your videos. I'm not out of the woods yet, but it's helped me tremendously.
AT 32:00 You caught me out of no where im going through really hard times right now and that was very wise words from you and i appreciate it. I hear people telling me all the time things are going to get better and i dont know this just came out of no where and really hit me thank you so much i appreciate you.
even though I have not had any thoughts like that in a long time I sincerely appreciate TomatoAnus's reminder of how there is a tomorrow, it seriously registers with me, I heard you say previously that people had made fun of you for it, but screw them, it might sound silly, but if you've ever been in that mindset, it's tough, and you might seriously need a youtuber with a silly username clear things up for you, so keep doing what you're doing Tomato
Really well done video, lots of complicated topics that are explained really well in a condensed format. The chapters and layout of the video helped, because I found myself jumping around to remind myself about the different tech. I did get confused and missed the quickclip explanation, its at 33:10 for anyone that also missed it
Thanks for making a video precisely long enough for me to repair my clothes dryer. I've been putting it off for weeks and wanted to quit at several points midway, but this video kept going, so I did too. Amazing what random little things help us get over the next hill.

It's still driveable by the combines. It's not cut
It also works with any drivable vehicle not just APCs - which means you can do BBT with jeeps and HL2 Episode Two's Jalopy as well.
Oh! Does this explain the "poop bucket flying off into space" bug? Because vehicles' default behaviour to upright themselves can produce some crazy position and rotation velocity (involving a sudden vertical push after its wheels just contact a surface, from memory), making the vehicle fly around in a bizarre, mosquito-like pattern until it reaches an arbitrary destination. I'd imagine that the bucket's low weight coupled with no actual wheels attached means the prop keeps attempting to upright itself every physics tick, sending it off at the speed it does.
Watching both clips of peng bumping the bucket frame-by-frame, it looks as if the bucket attempts to upright itself both times before being launched, which is very similar to the start of vehicles bugging out from their upright behaviour.

So you're telling me a significant amount of speedrun strategy in a game where a major plot point is figuring out how to use teleportation...
is figuring out how to use teleportation.
20:19 hi, 🤓here! i felt like calculating how many universes the poop bucket actually zips over. if we assume that the unobservable universe is 15,000,000 times the size of the observable universe then (if i did the math right) the bucket is traveling at about 1*10^41 universes per second. it takes about 5s to get from the poop bucket launch to the attic so it wouldve traveled around 500 duodecillion universes by the time the save was made. it wouldve only taken ~3*10^-41s or 300 planck times or ~30 sextillionths of a zeptosecond (the smallest amount of time that has been mesured) to zip across the 3 mentioned universes
wow, yesclip is so cool! the person who found it for new engine must be really cool and smart and good at speedrunning!
guac when more hl2 runs
@@Tmob i didn’t even do runs after figuring out yesclip lol
always really appreciate the mental health checkups, even if im doing okay right now it still makes me really happy and grateful, you are doing such a wonderful thing
i missed your videos bro, thank you for this upload ✊🏾
I absolutely love how you, not only make your sponsors actually entertaining, but you also add a time-stamp at the end anyways, good shit!
im speechless how funny are tomatoes adverts, i never ever skip them
Your explanations for speedrun content is second to none, every time I see a new vid in my feed I get so excited! Love your vids!
We waited quite some time for an upload, but damn it, it was totally worth it
Thought I wouldn’t have anything good to watch while I clean my Time Machine, and then this shows up in my inbox? phenomenal.
I've been watching for a long time now, either due to your AGDQ New Vegas run or just before that I can't remember. This is the first time I've REALLY needed the "no feeling is final" speech and I just want to thank you for continuing to include it. You're a legend and by far my favourite speedrunning content creator, keep it up :)
This is gonna be good, gonna have to grab some whiskey and toblerone for this one!
the water surfing parts are amazing. Its great how top open and free of invisible walls the maps are
I love the fact that bill's big thrill works on most source games including garry's mod (kinda)
Dude, I’ve been looking forward to a video drop for a while now, glad you’re back.
The amount of "pickle pecker picker" variations is astounding.
Cool speedrun video! Wondered what went on in HL2 and couldn't wrap my head around it.
Seeing that Celeste was second picked by the patreon makes me jealous! That's like Tomato's whole doing well speech as an entire game!
great that msushi portal 2 knowledge is relevant to another speedrun video
Your videos are always a huge good time, I like speedrunning, love the way you explain the runs and the special message always makes me feel better.
the reference to Rubber at 59:03 absolutely took me out, you have very good taste in niche horror films
I super appreciate how you have manual subtitles on your videos, despite them being an hour long. thank you :)
32:05 is what I'm here for.
As goofy and enjoyable as the commentary always is, its very wholesome to hear that trademark tomatoanus "this feeling will pass" in every video. Respect.
Hey I know that guy! (Also banger vid, was worth the wait)
thanks for the supporting words, it really helped me after my grilled cheese fell behind the diswasher
32:06 This caught me so off guard. I've been severely clinically depressed for the last few years and I haven't found many reassurances to be that comforting, but this came out of nowhere and really caught me off guard and to be honest, I appreciate it.
8:41 It brings me great glee picturing Gordon Freeman matrix running up the stairwell walls.
dude i been watching your videos for so long now and heard your kind words an endless amount of times.
but this time it hit different.. being in deep depression its hard to remember that there are better times as well but hearing it gave me a bit more strength to make more adjustments and changes.
thank you tomatoman.
Always good to see Half Life being run.
Halve Live*
What a wild run.
Crazy crazy tricks in this one.
Thanks Valve, thanks runners and thanks ANUS
Nice speedrun explanation.
1:10:10 'Hitting this dude into a wall like he was sitting on an airbag' is exactly what happened lmao
16:23 mario moment
Hearing a glitch being referred to as "ISG" in a game that isn't Ocarina of Time or Majora's Mask just feels so weird lmao
damn bro, every time i look away and come back to this chennel, the editing gets better and better, cant wait for the million sub party!
Well shit... this is the first time the mental health message hit just as I needed it, as I was having a lot of difficult thoughts going through my head just as it started
Amazing video, it's so well explained even though it's voodoo magic what these speedrunners do. The mental health sections are the best thing on RUclips. Keep up the good work!
Only this guy can make 38 minutes feel like 75 minutes
Dude, thank you so much for this detailed description, especially the tip about gaining speed ontop of trains going the opposite direction than you. I wasn't late for work today!
I don't like the camera insert of your self. OT adds nothing to the video and is distracting to what i want to watch, the game. I liked your videos better without it
I love learning about Half Life and FPS runs because you have to be sooo precise all the time and the movement is still inherently imprecise through most of it. It blows my mind.
500 views in 4 mins bro fell off
yeah, that tends to happen
These comments have gotten very tired.
@@jabob3496ye, they fell off
I fell off the wagon
@@jabob3496 yeah I kinda said it ironically
Imagine being Barney, seeing your old friend from years ago randomly reappearing on a train, only to grab a random phone and start travelling faster than humanly possible, clip through a random wall and blast off into relativistic space. You get numerous message from your associates on how Freeman is somehow going FASTER, violating physics and sending buckets fast enough to cross the observable galaxy an unknowable amount of times over. Then, not even an hour later, you hear how he somehow also managed to destroy the citadel.
When interacting with people in half-life, I act like a psychopath.
This run brings that to a whole new level.
*Guy walks in to see how you're doing
*Walks up to the guy while holding live grenade
Sorry but this might be the best ad I've seen in more than a decade
Thanks for the good laughter
Thanks for reminding me that I am not my emotions, but what I think of them, which we can change. 👾
I really appreciate the kind words, helped me quite a bit.
Man, I missed your videos so much thanks I needed this
6:29 BOB WEADABABYITSABOY -- i am SO happy to hear that, i always reference that commercial and nobody knows what its from. i feel seen. i feel heard.
19:55 tomato's face here is so adorable. Definitepy worthy of a B-tier desktop background
Jokes aside, thank you for your videos. I always think the intermissions for encouragin words are a nice touch. While I'm doing fine myself, I hope these words reach people who need to hear them and I am also cheering for everyone to take every day head-on, do their best and work towards what they need to work on
Was not expecting an anti-depression message in the middle of my off-brand summoning salt
good stuff, much appreciated
Love the video! Great explanations and some funny bits. Also the little positive inspirational message in the middle was super cool and made me feel better today when I was having a kind of off morning, so thanks! :)
I can't tell you how much watching your videos got me through some tough times. Thank you for the interesting videos and motivational messages in your videos. I'm not out of the woods yet, but it's helped me tremendously.
Thanks for reminding me about the thinking about where I was, not who I was part.
I really needed that today
I was just watching the Control video and i look down and see this in my recommended. Today is a good day. Love you tomatoanus
Always a pleasure seeing a new upload from you mate. You always cheer me up. Also Big Ups to Peng. Sick Speedrun.
I appreciate that the captions include his intentional mispronunciations, from "Have-Live" to "Osyddey". True quality control.
"he saveloads just before touching tips..." little things like that are why i love you
Forcing players to utilize quantum teleportation to skip cutscenes was really a bold new storytelling style from Valve, props to them
AT 32:00 You caught me out of no where im going through really hard times right now and that was very wise words from you and i appreciate it. I hear people telling me all the time things are going to get better and i dont know this just came out of no where and really hit me thank you so much i appreciate you.
even though I have not had any thoughts like that in a long time I sincerely appreciate TomatoAnus's reminder of how there is a tomorrow, it seriously registers with me, I heard you say previously that people had made fun of you for it, but screw them, it might sound silly, but if you've ever been in that mindset, it's tough, and you might seriously need a youtuber with a silly username clear things up for you, so keep doing what you're doing Tomato
Really well done video, lots of complicated topics that are explained really well in a condensed format. The chapters and layout of the video helped, because I found myself jumping around to remind myself about the different tech.
I did get confused and missed the quickclip explanation, its at 33:10 for anyone that also missed it
Classic TomatoAnus to subtlety drop the Morgan Freeman joke with a black avatar and drag it through the entire video.
Got funnier every time.
Thanks for making a video precisely long enough for me to repair my clothes dryer. I've been putting it off for weeks and wanted to quit at several points midway, but this video kept going, so I did too. Amazing what random little things help us get over the next hill.
