  David pulling the most gamer move by gambling all his coins to get sub 19 hours for 1 trophy is the most clutch thing I've ever seen. Congrats on the speedrun record

  it’s happened multiple times at this point, but i always get so hype when a speedrun documentary video pulls the “the newest runner………. was me.” move

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jye4FrfoPsg&amp;t=2668">44:28</a> I’m pretty sure Armada was making a joke that he was trying to speedrun “all trophies” by winning as many melee tournaments as possible there lol

  Pretty sure I&apos;m up to like 17 years in my run now. Should probably get around to finishing

  AMSA is the most “love of the game” player of all time. He just loves melee so much- comp, targets, giant smash tourneys, etc

  Something that&apos;s nice about long runs like these is that while every second can still count, recovering from mistakes is a lot more possible than say, a 20 minute run. Grats man that&apos;s a crazy achievement for any runner

  Absolutely insane. Despite all the hard work and dedication you put into this, that 25% chance gamble is the most incredible part of it. You could have played it safe and still got the world record, but now you&apos;re a legend.

  I&apos;m somewhat surprised Melee&apos;s &quot;You got all trophies&quot; message and Diskun unlock requirements work as intended, considering the facts that there are actually 293 trophies in Melee (including &quot;Samus Unmasked&quot;, &quot;Mario &amp; Yoshi&quot;, and &quot;Tamagon&quot;), and there are actually 256 bonuses in the game, with the other seven being unused (those being &quot;Barrel Blast KO&quot;, &quot;Crash &amp; Burn&quot;, &quot;Deflector&quot;, &quot;Green Shell Shooter&quot;, &quot;Poolshark&quot;, &quot;Red Shell Shooter&quot; and &quot;Ricochet Rifler&quot;), at least according to TCRF.

  I know this is unrelated to the (really well-covered &amp; interesting) video content, but please know it means the world to me &amp; other viewers that benefit from closed captions that you captioned an ENTIRE 47 minute long video - even with indicators that help with context. Incredibly based move on your end, man. Thanks.

  It would be a gargantuan undertaking, but a TAS of this category would be incredible.

  I think Amsa is the most wholesome human in the world.
