A Doom speedrun record, thought to be impossible to break, has finally been beaten after 26 years [Doom 2, 1st map time: 0:04.97

It's the first level, it's incredibly short. Casually it's easy to complete in <10 seconds. The "par" time is 30 seconds

Some people enjoy the history behind the record. This video is for them. If you don't, then it's not a video targeted to you.

It's actually more interesting than I first thought. The amount of small steps to lower the time (a different key stroke, a shot from the pistol at the right moment) is insane for a casual player like me.
