Watch Man Beat SUPER MARIO WORLD in 23 Minutes While Blindfolded

View fullsize

For those of you who have ambitions of beating Super Mario World in record time, good luck! You have some incredible competition to go up against. Twitch streamer PangaeaPanga has completed Super Mario World in what is said to be in a world record breaking 23 minutes, and he did it while wearing a freakin' blindfold. He only died three times in his journey. How in the bloody hell do you prepare for something like this!? Every move he makes has to be a combination of good timing and precise jumps! The video is actually pretty nerve-racking to watch. Things get really intense at the 15-minute mark when he goes up against Bowser.

Here's the note that came along with the video:

Started learning blindfolded strategies on June 16. Started full runs on June 20. Finished a full run today. This run features 3 deaths (but no game overs, thankfully), getting lost briefly in Starworld, baby Yoshi eating the goal tape, and entertaining spectators to keep the hype up for when I was too concentrated on the run. Also, there is an input display at the bottom left side of the video, so you can see exactly what buttons I'm pressing.

This is truly an impressive feat, one that can not be accomplished by a mere mortal man.
