There's still no reason to not publish the file. This just automatically looks suspicious to people.
What's exactly suspicious about it? BitFS is legit, MKDasher first did 18''07, and even I have 18''07 BitFS. The BLJ on Bowser2? It looks completely normal. If it's about the time, I predicted a 4'58 flat a long time ago, right when Snark said he improved 9f on Bowser2 lol
No Buttons Allowed except camera zoom, evidently. ;)
Some pretty clever tricks there. I don't think there was anything new there, but the it's a brilliant showcase of some cool stuff. Though I do wish just for the reaction he'd stick some Power Violence or something over the repetitive part.
BTW, could you use the shell for PUs, how long would that take? I'm guessing it's not though since if nothing else I think it'd be impossible not to crash.

I swear I've seen a video of someone using the shell and getting stuck in some spot while moving backwards for 30 minutes just to build up speed. Or maybe that was the remake.

That is interesting. I don't recall any spot to get stuck with shell building speed :O

Aside from acknowleding this milestone, I thought the camera angles were quite bad. Sorry for being a downer :)
You aren't the only one. Bowser in the Sky literally gave me a headache, although the fact that today has been one long (seasonal) allergy attack probably isn't helping me.
I have an idea I would like to share.
You know how you can go to this glitched area that leads to the second floor, yet there is this barrier that prevents you from going to the second floor? There is also a BLJ spot in that same exact area. I wonder if you can gain enough speed with that BLJ spot to access PUs to get yourself to the second floor, without even needing the key from BitFS. I don't know if it's possible, but if it is, it may be possible to finish the game in less than 4 minutes.
I do have my doubts though. Unlike the moat door, the door leading to the second floor doesn't load a new area. It is simply a continuation of one loading zone. However, if it is possible to access a painting like WDW or TTM, you can get to the second floor simply by dying or grabbing a star, more likely the former in a speedrun. It would probably be easier to die in TTM than it is to die in WDW though.

You need the key to trigger the loading zone. If you were to somehow get to a PU, the difference in the key door and the moat door is simply that, you need a key. I don't understand much with this PU stuff but I'm fairly sure it wouldn't help in this situation.

Sick to see you here. For the other guy: how can you say that the door doesn't load a new area? It does as far as I know :/

I think you're right. I don't think it would help either. Even if you could use a PU to get past the barrier, I don't think there would be any of the paintings loaded. You would likely need the key to access the paintings.

Would it be possible to use cheats to quickly test this?
What hypothesis is there to test?
The moat skip was abut getting into position, which you needed the PU to use.
Test if 2nd floor paintings entrances exist in PU.
I don't see how this would even work? Nothing is loaded upstairs until you open that door. They're 2 completely different areas; not connected in anyway apart from that key door.
I'm not sure if that's really tool assisted, I think it just used save states. I made one but it's pretty terrible, so I'll redo it. I think I've got an ok route though based on that.

It's doable on console, the timing isn't that strict.
