OT: Mario Bros 3 in 11 minutes

I wish I had this kind of mad skills in TT. :P

Video of a guy beating Super Mario 3 with impeccable timing.

Brings back fond memories of spending *hours* trying to get past some of those same levels...

You can't edit your way to bouncing off enough cannon balls to get 75 extra lives in the first tank level of World 8. You can't edit his near flight through the levels touching ground only when needed, and leaving perfectly timed fireballs to hit each bad guy below.

Editing or not, that guy has not seen anything but a Mario 3 screen for years...

These people bring up some interesting points, plus you might (cross-your-fingers) be able to watch the video.
