(ignore timer, it's bugged, time shown at end in statistics. fall starts at 1:40 left)
A couple days ago some friends and I were talking about Zedaph's Season 9 Zedvancements, one of them being the 4500 block fall from his video Surviving the HIGHEST Fall onto Solid Ground.
To do this fall and survive you need:
an elytra
2-3 stacks of rockets
a bunch of hay bales
a potion of Jump Boost II
a potion of the Turtle Master II
Protection IV armor (any material) with FFIV boots
an enchanted golden apple
That's it! And as an All Advancements runner who's in the outer end with an enchanted golden apple once or twice a week, the immediate thought was, "This looks like fun to speedrun. Somebody needs to do it".
So you know, ModCheck and all that, I don't exactly have a few dozen All Advancements runners on my friends list I could pester to do it well, so we're just going to have to settle for it being done badly, by me.
The rules for the speedrun are.
Version: 1.16.1 random seed glitchless. Fly at least 4500 blocks above ground level and start falling. Timer stops when you hit the ground and survive.
The maximum distance you can fall this way is 4507 blocks. Like Zedaph I decided anything from 4500+ is good enough. My fall was exactly 4500.
It was fun.
Also I got three record discs killing creepers. This was not intended. My timer bugged when I played one of them in a jukebox. This was also not intended. I'm just a lazy bitch who hasn't updated SpeedrunIGT in over a year.
Total time 2 hours 7 minutes. Fastest possible is probably around an hour twenty.
You know what it is. Transcript under the cut for Landduo being landduo
Foolish: Okay, it's all good
Bad: Foolish--thank you officer, you saved me.
Foolish: You're welcome.
Bad: Y-you're supposed to say 'all in a day's work.'
Foolish: Oh, okay, that was going to be my next line. I don't--
Bad: Oh, okay. I guess we can re-run that.
Foolish: No, we don't. It's fine, the magic's over.
Bad: Thank you officer, you saved me, I thought I was going to die--
Foolish: Get down on the ground, you're under arrest!
Bad: Ah, Fudge! I swear, it was just one Hershey bar, I'm sorry--
Foolish: Oh, one Hershey bar, but that's how it starts, okay. Next thing you know, you're gonna stop at another store--it's gonna be two Hershey bars.
Bad: Okay, and a Gatorade, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please, don't shoot, don't shoot--
Foolish: Do you mean it? Are you sorry?
Bad: Yeah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'll never--I'll never shoplift again.
Foolish: You're free to go.
Bad: Okay--
Foolish: But as punishment I have to throw four snowballs in your face.
Bad: Okay.
Foolish: And you have to open your mouth.
Bad: O-okay?
Foolish: And after I throw it you have to act like it hit your mouth
Bad:…what? Okay?
(Foolish throws a snowball)
Bad: Phuh, ugh, oh, no, it's snowy--
(Foolish throws the second snowball)
Bad: Ahh, ugh--
(Foolish throws the third snowball)
Bad: Ahh, phuh--it's gross--
Foolish: Last snowball!
(Foolish throws the fourth snowball)
Bad: Awww, oh, my teeth, oh so cold.
(Foolish begins laughing)
Bad: Alright…um.
Foolish: Alright. You've done the crime, serve the time or something. Whatever it is.
Bad: Okay, alright. So I'm free to go now?
Foolish: Yeah. Yeah, you're all good. We can, uh, continue whatever it is we were going about.
