So Atticus has posted speedruns here before, so I decided to do so myself. Yesterday I broke the world record for speedrunning The Maw on Easy by 30 seconds, with a time of 7:43. Yesterday being the second day of me speedrunning (no prior experience except with stunting/tricking).
Enjoy.

You can read up about some of the techniques used in the run on the wiki page I've been working on here.
In addition, you guys should check out AGDQ (Awesome Games Done Quick), which is a speedrunning event to raise money for the Prevent Cancer Foundation. It's live streaming on twitch. http://gamesdoneq...
Awesome vid, but I did have a question....I've never heard of speed running but you can exploit glitches with it? It seemed like you went above the map in one or two places.
Thanks for the comments everyone, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Commentary was funny (even if it was not intended to be)! The "360 swag" part was the killer part for me. Very nice job Mator.
What can I say, I'm a funny guy. ;P
Sometimes it surprises me the things I say. I'm like "this is me? haha, I sound like an idiot... o_o"

Yep, several glitches in the run. I skip an enemy spawn by going super fast at the beginning, I get into the ceiling using a bump with the door and skip an entire section of the level, and I take the hog between two crates using partial clipping of it into them.
