    Mario, blink 2 frames early if you're in a spliced run.

    you either die a speedrunning hero or live long enough to see Karl Jobst make a video about you...
  • @snowduck6365
    I really love how formal Karl sounds. For me, it feels like I'm in a business meeting and my boss is talking to me about speedrunning.

    Queenpwnsalot simp/husband or w/e: "Why is her blindfold run being looked at with the highest of scrutiny compared to everyone else?" Speedrunning community: Lets take a look at a Super Mario 64 record from 12 years ago and pay attention to the 64th frame blink.

    I giggle every time I see "Billy Mitchell" in the list of patrons.
  • @Karanthaneos
    Dude held his spliced record unnoticed for 12 years. Ghost of Tsukushima

    I love the phrase "SM64 scientist Pannenkoek". So absurd-sounding, such a perfect descriptor.
  • @MRKapcer13
    "Looking for anomalies in the" Splice "audio track." I saw what you did there. I appreciated it.
  • @deltalord6969
    Maybe the real cheated speedruns were the frames we spliced along the way
  • @Katliner
    Cheater: You can't defeat me. Audacity: I know, but he can. Mario: blinking
  • @syndrac6254
    Bro literally got caught by the old "Blink twice if you're held against your will"
  • I'm a Show-off, I love showing off my Ability in something... the thought of faking it and then putting my performance out to the masses to see "My Achievement" makes me physically ill.
  • @DetectiveJones
    I bet when making Super Mario 64 that whoever was involved with making the blinking animations thought it would just be a cool little detail that might not be noticed or appreciated. Only to have it be the key detail that exposes Speed runners decades after the games release.
  • @jnub
    its nuts how people know so much about this game that they now have an essentially bulletproof way to detect splicing based off of the player character blinking. insane.
  • Love the word choice “ancient” for gaming context. For historians we use approximately 2000 years ago
  • @orion.6
    Its nice to see a sponsor thats actually good. I loved the first 2 books in the series and ill read book 3 soon.
  • If shigeru has been proven to not splice his runs, and he achieved tsukishima cycle shortly after the faked run, i think we should call it shigeru cycle from now on!

    Was literally thinking earlier today how I hadn’t seen a new Jobst video in a while and here is a new video! Great insight as usual, who would’ve thought the way they programmed Mario’s eye blinks would be so important nearly 30 years later!!
