Donkey Kong 64 Speed Run (100% Completion) Part 6 - Part 8

This is a speed run for Donkey Kong 64 on the Nintendo 64. I did not do this speed run. I got it from www.speeddemosarchive.com. I got it for all those Donkey Kong 64 fans out there, and non-fans alike. So please don't accuse me of copyright infringement, or plagurism. Enjoy. Best 100% time with death abuse: 9:02 by Joe Wiewel on 04.08.06. (the game calls it 101%) Author's comments: Segment 06 - Fungi Forest 1 Right off the bat - the worst thing that happened - is...Jetpak... Yep, believe it or not, that's the worst part of this segment. So...I accidentally die a time or two, but didn't think anything about it since the character has to get a game over after picking up the Rareware coin. I get over 5000 points, but the Rareware coin doesn't come down, only a gold bar and a fuel container. Then I get hit by an enemy. DAMN. Second time, I get a game over when I had 34xx points. That was just horrible beyond belief.Third time I beat it, but stay on the first level. I always died whenever I went on the bottom part of the screen. So I played it safe and stayed on the top on the first level collecting items, then committed suicide when I had the Rareware coin. Then to top it all off, I pressed A when Cranky talked to me, so I had to pause and exit Jetpak when it started. I had a bit of some button slip ups with Donkey in the giant mushroom - I accidentally shot a coconut into ground. In the room where a Chunky face had to be made, I stay by the door to avoid the Zinger. The Zinger is hard to kill without homing ammo, and I hadn't bought it from Funky yet. I killed the Zinger outside of the giant mushroom with Diddy because it always messed me up in the practice segments. At the point where Chunky crushes steel kegs with a spiked wheel, I had an epiphany of improving my route on the fly by going to the back entrance of the barn and get the last keg first before going into the front entrance. Well, I did that, but when I set the keg on the conveyor belt, it wasn't moving. I had a bit of hesitation, then I got Donkey and had him do his thing with the levers, which got the conveyor belt moving. Thankfully, the game still counted the crushing of the metal keg Chunky moved from the other barn room. Then I got Chunky and had him finish the job. In the end, it did improve my route and time by a small amount.
