I just want to say I love your videos and breakdown of each game particularly when you give context about how the game works. Many other speedrun channels don't do that and I appreciate being able to understand the significance of a skip or speedrun in that game's context. Karl Jobst and Summoning Salt have their place as well but I have to say you are my favorite of the three. Keep up the great work! ❤

Marty was actually a normal Thwomp once. He was the first to discover driving through walls, but he was shunned and almost killed for his crimes. In fears that he could clip through swords and bullets, they injected him with Kryptonite and then was jailed for life instead since he is no longer a threat. We could have gotten Thwomps in MK64 if it wasn't for Marty's crimes to physics and the subsequent driving ban to all Thwomps. Now we just see an almost catatonic Marty in the lowest point of his life. There is no hope in his eyes or dental hygeine in his teeth.

Never realized they were any more than a visual effect as a kid, but now that I think about it, it makes sense: It's just a normal racer with its course programmed and its collision disabled. "Ghosts" in Souls games act the very same way. It's interesting that the devs didn't do anything about the Thwomp's AI to disable it going after ghost racers ― I guess either it was too difficult to fix, or maybe they just somehow didn't think of it. Or maybe they just thought it was neat

There is a room where you can shroom boost into the thwomps to get launched out of bounds (the room next to the bridge room before the stairs.) Unfortunately there’s nothing that came out of it because the launch distance was not sufficient for storing a select checkpoint or to abuse a checkpoint to skip a portion of that track for that matter. If that effect is possible to recreate in another room, it would be intriguing to see if it leads to anything useful.

Well ONLY because you specifically asked for my theory about Marty... see, a Thwomp's life can be relegated to simply falling heavily towards the ground repeatedly , mostly when there is a potential victim under it , sometimes they just practice for awhile. Well Marty got way too good for his job, mf was smashing everything in sight, until Bowser realized life isn't even fun with Marty stealing all the action and driving everyone away. So he was barred away, just outside of the game area for racers, as a constant reminder of the power that COULD BE UPON THEE if only perhaps it were released once again, thus contributing to the overall intimidation of Bowser's Castle, and image is incredibly important to Bowser, to show off the powerful slaves he controls in his evil army. Best I got bro. Fantastic vid as they all are🙌

Marty's not in jail. He's a sentry. But the safety glass melts in the high heat of the lava-surrounded castle so they use the jail bars instead. He laughs at you when you approach because the races are the most interesting thing to happen to him; who goes to this castle otherwise?

Marty used to be regular driver, but his odd shape caused a lot of wind resistance. He just couldn’t win. Not to mention, the other drivers were clipping through walls. He saw how the other drivers would all get to celebrate together and he wanted that. Out of desperation, he started messing with wild experiments to make himself more accurate, lighter, and ultimately… faster! But it wasn’t enough. He wanted more speed and he went overboard with his experiments. No one wanted to even race him anymore, losing the few friends he had left to his obsession. To make it worse he noticed that no one ever celebrated with him. Everything was wrong. So, he decided one day he would make it right. He could go back! He could undo it all. So he began to make a cure for himself… but, it didn’t do what he thought it would. It did something else. Something that NO one saw coming… …to be continued.
