10 years ago, a mysterious upwarp glitch in Tick Tock Clock during a Super Mario 64 speedrun happened for no apparent reason. Years later, a myth about cosmic rays causing this glitch spread across the Internet, with people believing it to be true despite Mario 64 experts disagreeing. This is how this wild theory spiraled out of control.

Out of all the previous Super Mario Sunshine speedrun milestones, the sub-1:13 barrier in any% has been the toughest yet. It took nearly 4 years to finally achieve. Here's how:
Sonic 2 speedruns for many years have used the in-game timer as the main timing method. It's pretty accurate, except when you pause the game, since that also pauses the timer. Many new strats were found thanks to pause buffering. Uh oh.
Funky Kong is the best character in Mario Kart Wii, but he has to be unlocked to use him. Speedrunners have now made a category on how quickly you can unlock Funky Kong. This is a world record history of the category.

Pausing. You've probably done this hundreds of times in your playthrough of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. So how can you possible beat the game without pressing Start or pausing the game?
In 2019, while speedruns of 3D Zelda games were thriving, a glitch discovery in Majora's Mask was so horrible, that it nearly killed all interest in speedrunning the game. This is the story of how that trick was found, and defeated.
