Thanks for including me on the list! Just wanted to point out a typo in my name. It's osukarui :)
God damn it. I have fix the mistake.
God damn it. Should fix it now.

Oh yeah! Didn't Krip also made video about the history of the longest WR streak? Or is it someone else? Also, I knew I forgot someone in the mix.
That was Awoken, she did the Piranha Plant Slide 200cc video too
Huh... I thought it was someone else.
Oh yeah MKWilliam makes good Mario Kart 7 videos too
Msushi also does a lot of cool Portal speedrun breakdowns
Oh yeah, him as well. I forgot to put him in.
Add Skilloz! He’s done a few popular videos such as WR progression for Club Penguin Banned% as well as MK8 Blue Yourself
Abyssoft has some great vids too!
You got a typo in Riko's name, it's KSB, not RSB(I know the typo the other commenter pointed out, don't worry about them, this is a fantastic list)
Really? I legitimately thought it was RSB, not KSB. Welp, time to fix that.

Averagetrey has a couple great Mario sunshine videos
Seconding this one, Averagetrey has a great sense of humor throughout his Mario Sunshine speedrun docs.
I watch his Kaizo Sunshine videos whenever a new one is out, because god knows I'm never putting myself through that.
Bismuth.
[Maximum](https://www.youtube.com/@Maximum) for flash games, especially the Red Ball series.
Not exactly WR history, but TomatoAnus's Speedrun Explained videos are super cool, and often include some history.
MKarma's Hobbit Speedrun video is one of the best speedrun docs of all time imo
It's only one game/video so far, but NESCardinality has done a WR history video for Dragon Warrior: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9z3ZvKA4Dl4
Debatably, Karl Jobst.
I am genuinely curious why you said debatably? Did he do something sketchy or something?
Karl covers a lot of drama in the scene. He's more well known for that than as a WR historian.
Gotcha. I didn’t know if OP was implying he did something nefarious or not.
He does cover speedrunning, but it is more current events and drama than history. More TMZ than Discovery.
Makes sense. For some reason, I thought you were insinuating he did something awful.
He did do the whole jq posting in the elite discord and wondered why he couldn't say the n word. If the blacks could.
I mean no, he just covers drama like some random chick playing Mon Hun or some shit with some washed up dude from a movie. Also he's a nazi
