  • In Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus for the PlayStation 2, a major discovery for the game was found just last month, culminating in a 9 minute time save for the speedrun. This video goes into the history of this skip, and the communities triumph in this great find.

    I actually remember finding a somewhat void drowning glitch in Sly on World 3, when entering the hub area there are these vines/branches that you jump on and break some spikes attached to them. The right most branch is the one that worked for me when you enter the hub, when you jump on the branch it lowers then rises after a bit. Once the branch reaches the highest point it can go with you on it, you have to double jump back and to the right while in the roll ability. If successful, Sly will launch way past the branch or even in the air. Most times, it launches me to an out of bounds area with some floating graves and some swamp water but I hope it helps out!

    Trevorsaurusrex here!! I don't really speedrun anymore...but still watch vids from time to time! Really awesome to see you guys still improving these runs after so many years!!
    @ 4:30 you mentioned the super jump... As far as I know, my twin brother was actually the first one to discover the super jump glitch. (Some of the runs uploaded on our channel trevorsaurusrex were done by me and some of them done by him) Once we had it figured out, we uploaded the explanation video right away. We discovered most of the original super jump cuts on the individual levels but I'm pretty sure it was someone else who found the whole world skips. I honestly can't remember! but I think we had considered it may be possible to super jump in the cannon to skip to Raleigh and then someone else quickly figured it out before we could.
    Now if you can manage to get cerpin or animeowzers to join the chat maybe we can figure out the rest of it!

    Just now going through my watch later videos, I know this is minor but I'm very glad you don't explain interesting, but irrelevant, story exposition for this. Many videos that dissect stuff will explain everything even if it isn't relevant, which is almost never what I want from them. This has exactly the right amount of information, explained well. Thank you for sharing and I hope you are doing well. :)

    Ah this is cool, as I recently have watched a few speed runs of this game and I remember hearing that if anyone could find a way to skip the keys then it would save a ton of time

    I remember discovering the world 3 low gravity glitch as a kid. I didn't slip off the platform like neon did, but I would jump in the air and use the ball form to land on it. If I did it right sly would either bounce out the area or onto the invisible wall that neo landed on. I also remembered I jumped over the gate that you unlocked using three keys. I jumped over it to see if I could find the giant snake that was behind it. I didn't to say the least

    Before the video started I asked myself; "Is it the cannon glitch?"
    After the video I said to myself; "It's the cannon glitch"

    Love it! As someone how loved Sly Cooper as a kid your video was really great for someone who never has seen a speedrun of it. Great explanation for someone who is familiar with speedrunning (OOT mainly) but not with this game :) thanks for putting in the effort
