Paranormal Investigator% Definition: Take a picture of the ghost on every level (except for levels where the ghost doesn't appear).
This definition requires going to Sunken City, but you could also do one that ends at Tiamat. The eggplant world doesn't count. You can take a picture of the grave and it will show the empress, but the ghost doesn't appear naturally.
Another meme speedrun from HD where I got the first clear in Spelunky 2 was Action Hero%: youtu.be/lf_68z5WQng

Paranormal Investigator% Speedrun (First Clear) [25:59.100] - Spelunky 2

![Turning Olmec slow in under 2 minutes (Speedrun) - Spelunky 2
Far cooler than any Olmec-push-block-interaction from Spelunky HD. :^)
Skip to Olmec fight: 1:40
Explanation: Due to weird interactions between Olmec and the push block he becomes slow. This happens in the video at 2:11, but you can best see it at 2:44 when Olmec has more room to move. Anything after the first push block hit is just showing some weird interactions. At the end I get crushed, not by Olmec jumping, but by uncrouching (bonus jank). Also check out that sick double double arrow whip in 1-1.
This speedrun was invented by remy and its a cool opportunity to show off the three-bomb-quick-first-phase-Olmec.
Slowmec Definition: Turn Olmec slow (following Low% restrictions).
(Very few people read the description. Heres more Olmec variations (like in the thumbnail) as a reward: https://imgur.com/a/VdsS1wH)

![Dying-To-Orange-Frog% Speedrun [06:50.766] - Spelunky 2
Benji beat me! Faster time here: https://youtu.be/RxqUXdmLVPY
While trying to curse myself I found a jetpack + tp shop. Since the run was already slow I decided to take the run to Tiamat for an attempt at Speed IL Tiamat Ascent. Trying to beat Hectiques 11.833 seconds I thought Id do two teleports at the top to be faster, but I got max ranged. With a rope skip I still got to Sunken City, where an Orange Frog decided I was gonna do Dying-To-Orange-Frog%. If you wanna skip all the boring parts, the important stuff starts at 9:25.
Dying-To-Orange-Frog% Definition: Die to an orange frog. Time is taken from the death screen.

![No Teleporter Any% [05:18.066] - Spelunky 2
Getting the shotgun was quite slow, so I probably should have just used my 4 bombs.
The best thing about this speedrun is the arrow whip at 0:12.

![Chocos Challenge Resourceless Speedrun [1:27.933] (Spelunky 2 Custom Parkour)
This is a resourcless speedrun of a custom parkour level made by chocolatecake5000 using Modlunky2. You gotta get the Ankh, then go through the Tide Pool door to stop the time. Not optimized at all, so feel free to beat. The full hour of me running this can be found on my twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/921381869
