There's a new Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time speedrun world record holder in town, with streamer Jodenstone setting a new time of 18:07.

Speedruns never cease to amaze me, as I'm always impressed by the dedication of the players and the memorization (plus the original discovery) of all of the game's exploits. As posted on Reddit, Jodenstone managed to shave three seconds (ages in speedrun time!) off the record, previously held at 18:10 by player Cosmo.
This is the record for any percent completion, and there are different categories for finishing the game with everything collected, glitches or no glitches, etc. Joden is going to re-upload the video to YouTube and clock the time again, but consensus seems to be it was at least somewhat faster than Cosmo's. The previous record-holder has surpassed himself several times before, and may very well be up to the challenge again in the future.

As you can see in the video, Joden is using the Chinese version of the game--alternate languages are usually preferred in speedruns as the text displays more quickly than English. The Reddit post notes that this was his 2657th attempt at the world record. As I said, dedication! Enjoy the skill on display in the archived stream below.
