This is a video of my world record for the game Super Mario Bros.. I beat the game using warps in 5 minutes and 0 seconds. Timing starts when I gain control of Mario and ends when Mario touches the axe.(speeddemosarchive.com’s timing). Recorded using a VCR played on an NES console. My run uses many glitches which help in getting the lowest time possible. See my FAQ below if you have any questions of what I’ve done in my run. faqs Q1: Isn’t it faster to jump at the bottom of the flagpole? A1: No, it does not matter where you land on the flagpole since the flag has to come down anyways. Q2: You went right through the piranha plants, why didn’t you die? A2: Super Mario Bros. has many problems with hit detection, making it possible to jump through the piranha plants with accurate timing. Q3: What exactly did you do in level 4-2? Doesn’t a vine usually take you to the warp zone area? A3: I did a glitch. By jumping backwards into any object (As seen in 4-2 – I did three of these.)

Depending on Mario’s position on the screen, the game decides which vine or pipe Mario is using. In 4-2, the pipe and vine are close enough for the game to be tricked. This saves time because I don’t have to sit through the vine “cutscene”. …… If you still don’t get what I mean by all this here’s my suggestion: At 2:00, look at Mario’s position when …
