I saw this on YouChew Poop's forums, and I instantly faved it on my alt YouTube account!

Yeah, I knew it was one of the DDDs.

It said at the beggining it was tool assisted, meaning he used a cheat or hacking device. ToadsTool is one of them, there are others he could've used though.

Tool-assisted means he used an emulator with slow-motion and savestate capabilities. Basically, he is playing SM64 in slo-mo and messing up/re-recording.

I was more surprised by how effortlessly the guy sped through the Bowser levels. Even with it being tool-assisted, it's amazing that it's possible to get through the worlds that fast. My favorite part was the jumping along the fringe of the lava pool to get to the other side. I always knew you could somehow use that narrow platform.

I'd like to see a similar tool-assisted thing for speeding to the top of Tick Tock Clock.

Well, there's a 120 star speedrun video on the site, which should include Tick Tock Clock.

I'm amazed no one has (yet) found a way to beat SM64 without defeating Bowser those first two times.

Well, I got pretty close. On the DS version, I used the tree glitch and beat the game without beating the first Bowser.

(You need have to have the moat not dried for this to work) Well, I used the trick where you dive and you fall so that you're holding the tree with most of your body in the ground. Let go, then you'll be in the water under the ground. Now, swim so that you go under where the door to the basement is. Swim so that you're under that, so that you don't get out of the glitch. Now, swim far until the ground disappears. Now, swim up so that you go behind the steel door. Behold, you're in the basement!

Wait, so it's possible to beat the game with 1 star? How so??

Holy shish-kabobs! I read how they did it, but I'm really amazed

Kimimaru · « **Reply #25 on:** December 16, 2007, 10:13:20 AM »

That was amazing!

I thought it was going to be the old get-to-the-top-of-the-castle-without-any-stars trick.

I am just disappointed that it was tool-assisted. I like watching pure speed runs, not with assistance.
