Default How QWOP Broke Tomb Raider Speedruns

A bit of a shameless plug however, I thought you guys might find the history of the QWOP glitch interesting, and how it became an integral part of speedruns.

Cool video

Interesting to see how speedruns have evolved with QWOP

HELP! What does the video say from 52s to 56s?
I can hear the rest of it. The following is what I heard around 52s to 56s.
Quote:
Qwop happens when Lara lands on the floor when she's rising during a jump.
Jumping at a step or a low ceiling simulates that.
When you jump, you can see ... a little bit, indicating that she's landed while she's still rising.
The game doesn't acknowlege that you've landed during a rise and keeps trying to get you to land.
The game thinks you're still falling.
The '...' indicates the part I can't hear. Thank you very much.

You can see her walk on thin air for a little bit

On a rather uninteresting note. Why would you possibly try to glitch your playthrough of Tomb Raider?

It's an interesting note. Tomb raider is a game for exploring and finding secrets, and glitches are the ultimate secrets embeded in the game. So I want to find them.
