100% speed run of Super Metroid, completed on June 3 2004. Was the world record until June 4 2004.

This is a cleaner version of my previous 0:58. That 0:58 was just bad in every segment(I luckily got the last one a bit decent)so as I promised I made a new one with every trick there is to make it worth-seeing. I was rather expecting a 0:57 instead of this when I got the last save in Norfair with 0:45. I somehow managed to get a solid 0:56 at the ending time. It makes me think now that 0:44 could be possible in the last save, but I won't be trying it in a while. I'd also like to highlight the battle with Draygon: I just killed him in just a matter of 20 secs and it wasn't with the the grapple beam method.

The run overall has just everything almost perfect; tricks, glitches, jumps, etc. I threw some popping-ideas-at-the-moment tricks here and there but unfortunately I failed most of them. Not much of a lost of time but you could have an idea of what I was trying to do. Hope you enjoy it.
