In December 2019, after overcoming the hand pain, Simply returned to the scene, streaming full-time in an attempt to break the world record.
This is the end of a long journey for Simply, who has spent nearly eight years gunning for this particularly high-profile speedrunning world record.
Six months later, after many highs and lows, Simply now has the world record he worked so hard to achieve.
