I got this randomly recommended to me, not even caring about Red Ball and especially not caring about the speed running for it, but this was a really fascinating video!
Insane to think that u can make a video this long about a single level from a flash game. Loved that I was around for the majority of the progression for this level.
Search for "record progression peach break the targets". If you find the concept of long videos for short levels interesting, you should get a kick out of that one :)
This is a really good video about such a game with such a small community. My friend made a joke about speed running red ball and later on he sent this, and I watched it, and even though I don’t know how red ball is speed run, this was still a great video.
I didn't even notice since turbines is a common location name in a different game I play so it just sounded right. I wonder if he has a similar thing going on where he's mixing up game lingo,
Yeah but that’s literally how the speedrunning community works... the reason why speedrunners are so good at speedrunning is because they share strategies to others. there wouldn’t be any new world records for whatever game if nobody shared anything...
Man please keep making these the quality is so much higher than many youtubers with millions of subscribers, you put so much effort into your videos and I love it, keep up the good work!
Dude, I was wondering if you were the same Yellow Skarmory of the Geoguessr community and you are, didn't expect to find you in a random video that RUclips recommended to me
I have nothing but the utmost respect for the speedrunners community. I like to think myself as a part of that, but im not good enough at games to achieve some wr. I ll keep supporting you guys
Really great video my dude. You're really entertaining to watch, I know nothing about red ball but you made it sound interesting. That's how you know you've done well. I love when I watch videos on a topic I know completely nothing about but I still find them entertaining because of the person making them. You've earned a, new subscriber to day.
Man I'd never thought the red ball speedrunning community would vote level eleven "train sub 20" as the hardest speedrunning strat of the series. Even less would I have known about any of that 20 minutes ago... Great video!
I have never seen this game before and don't really have an interest in speedrunning but for some reason I watched the whole thing and was engaged the whole time.
The ending is absolute gold, I wish you had elaborated in the video and just how many hours and attempts and save States sub 20 train took, that way the ending would be even funnier
Do you have any idea of how many times mario kart and bros speedrunners tried a single trick? Abney played choco mountain for 26k runs before he got triple weathertenko, someone (dont remember his name rip)did over 6k attempts ( and then kosmic got it in 9 tries) at 4:55 in mario bros. Arthur P did a lot of attempts at the rainbow road ultra shortcut before he got it.
My friends and I used to speedrun red ball on the school chromebooks in grade 8 when we finished our work. We found most of the shortcuts. I miss those days
I actually was grinding this game when it was just put on the apple App Store. It was buggy so I could get out of the first cart almost immediately and jump along the top of the platform, and make it to the flag before it went underground. I had no idea this games community was even a thing. It’s so cool to see it again with such passion. I might have to pick it up again:)
Awesome video, great work man. Also I swear I discovered ninja jumping during a class study hall like 5 years ago and thought it was the coolest thing.
When I was in middle school through highschool, I had found redball as a chrome extension that wouldn't open a new tab or anything, it was just a small windows that appeared, that way it wouldn't show up under the school's search history for my computer, so whenever I got bored I just played this. As soon as I saw this thumbnail I was awestruck.
@ItsMaximum that's a lot of grind, congrats dude. You did something that will likely never happen again and I respect that. You had a completely unique experience, and it must have felt great.

8:38 that's the best speedrunning strat I've ever heard. Is your train too long? Well, just squish it shorter, duh!

The biggest plot twist was learning that I've been watching a video made by one of the top speedrunners
O shit we have the same profile picture!!!
@ThePhilippineBlock amongst the top is an understatement. He’s got so many punch out wrs
god i love when speed runners decide to make these types of videos on their own games its just so cooool
okay that's cool but why are you calling saw blades turbines?
Maybe it's the name in the game. I honestly don't know, but could be.
The reason is he forgot that those are called sawblades.
Ikr its meant to be called a circle spike
I didn't even notice since turbines is a common location name in a different game I play so it just sounded right. I wonder if he has a similar thing going on where he's mixing up game lingo,
Because they look similiar...
I'd call those "turbines" saws, because that isn't what a turbine is.
@@thememoryfish its not a speed running term lol hes just calling saw blades turbines, an honest mistake
@@grindcorgz if the whole speedrunning community calls it turbines, then it's a speedrunning term

Lmao this man really telling people how to beat his own record.
It's rude to not share strats to the rest of the community.
That's how speedrunning community works
A run isn't perfected by one Player's research but a whole bunch of Speed runners sharing techniques to perfect a run as fast as they can.
Yeah but that’s literally how the speedrunning community works... the reason why speedrunners are so good at speedrunning is because they share strategies to others. there wouldn’t be any new world records for whatever game if nobody shared anything...

He put so much grind. Respect!
respectful flex
I love seeing speedrunners talk about the game they're passionate about and spend time running. It's so much more genuine and interesting
Extremely well done video. Never heard of this game but you had me hooked from the start. You deserve more subs. And congrats on the record!
Absolutely wild to be watching a documentary video where over halfway through the narrator suddenly becomes a character
No comment!? Let me fix that:
The best type of story indeed! Incredibly unique and intriguing.

Congrats dude 😁
I used to play this for fun didn’t know it was speedrunable

I used to beat this game as fast as I could on every computer at summer camp over 7 years ago. This brings back so much nostalgia.

"no improvement over the years"

Seems like a pretty good improvement to me

I used to play the Red Ball games all the time, all I can say is I’m glad it’s getting the recognition it deserves nowadays!
Omg I remember red ball, this brings back so many memories
Yeah used to play it in utah history back in 7th grade
Dang, I never thought I'd ever be so invested in a speedrun of a game I haven't seen for almost a decade. This is incredible.
