Do they allow clipping? Or is that a different category?

Not since that failed attempt.
Ah I’ve always wanted to fly to Backrooms Airport
Fair haha.
What’s clipping?
in speed running computer games clipping is normally clipping out of the defined boundaries of the environment into areas that the developers did not intend.
Thanks for the explanation, you were quicker than me with a response.
Collision detection isn't perfect. If you save and load just at the right time while moving forwards you can sometimes clip through walls. So walls are basically just a suggestion. The only problem is that if you mess it up, you die and loose time due to the unskippable death animation...
But no one messes that trick up right?
So what im hearing is that 9/11 was a messed up speed run?
That's debatable. While they were initially going for the clip glitch, they ended up discovering a wrong warp.
I hate being a pedant, but I hate this common mistake more.

If you edit your post I'll straight up delete this comment ♥️
What's wrong with living in loose time
Loose time sure got a purdy mouth
If you die on the same frame as falling down a hole and the screen transitions, it increments the submode which results in a broken mode-submode combination. The room number in RAM changes to that of the room below, however it is never loaded. Thus, transitioning north places you in the room north of the room below this one, from which you can jump through a wall to activate EG. This also underflows the room number from 10 to 250 which causes all sprites to despawn, including the mantle blocking the sewers in Escape.

I read that in desync's voice
In before someone posts the Aspen 20 Speedcheck copypasta
I'm assuming getting all your passengers there is considered a 100% run. I think the players branching out into lower % runs will open up some pretty big time savings and make for much more interesting runs.
you can take off as soon as the first passenger steps into the plane for a massive time save

Low%, get to your destination with as few passengers and plane parts remaining as possible
Boeing over here turning bugs into features
New York to Atlanta any% run.
(That's not a very long flight so 54 minutes is actually pretty impressive.)
You spend a lot of time climbing and descending plus the higher you are, the more distance you cover traveling to any location. The trick is to fly as close as possible to the ground.
Air is denser the lower you are in the atmosphere so a plane's cruise speed is actually a lot lower at 1000 feet than at 30,000 feet.
So the optimal altitude to climb to and fly at most of the flight for shortest possible flight time depends on distance (since it's a balance between climb time, descent time and speed at the cruise altitude) as well as on the direction of the wind at the cruise altitude since a tail wind will actually help getting there faster (so a choice of a lower cruise altitude might yield a better time because the wind is in the right direction there even though the air is a bit denser lower down).
This is of course all theoretical since commercial planes don't get much choice in terms of the cruise altitude for their flight.
Last time I tried instant engine shutdown + nosedive + full throttle turn on when taking off, my plane crashed and slid at mach1 on the runway. I don't recommend that strategy.
I mean I'm not surprised. You'd be amazed at the stupid shit people think is cool.
One simple trick to arrive an hour ahead of schedule!
ATC hates him
Now THIS is what I like seeing in society lol
Hacks!
I learned all I needed to know about pilots when I learned about the GUARD frequency
Did he leave without his passengers?
Can you blame them for wanting to work quietly once in a while?
I only got 3 hours of sleep, someone help me out, what's the joke here?
This commercial airline pilot is keeping track of their biggest time saved on a trip. The caption is comparing it to speedrunning a videogame, which is funny cause speedrunners usually do everything they can to save time but if you did that as a pilot it would probably be pretty unsafe
