I dont believe the contra one. It takes 10x more shots to kill the bosses than that. Also when he picks up an "R" power up doesnt that give you you regular rifle back

At 2:43 he goes right through a wrench.

- M4H

This is true. I slowed it down to half speed to verify. Let me see if I cant capture the frame in question

Ok, I've got a video file showing the "Magic Wrench". Who wants to host it? It's like 476KB

I feel like I'm breaking down the JFK assassination, "back and to the left...back and to the left...back and to the left."

I'm pretty sure the Contra one is real. When you have the Spread gun and fire close to the target the bosses die quickly.

The only part that got me was the boss on the 2nd corridor stage. On the Contra I played the two bubble looking things would split apart and come together, and they would only take damage when together. On the video the bubbles would just move left and right and took damage the whole time. It could be an earlier version of the game, but it seemed easier.

if he got 3 stars it would have gave him more 1ups thus taking more time..i think it was done on purpose

From what I saw, he only got one flute (at World 1, Level 3) yet he warped with two. What's with that?

There is another flute in the first castle in World 1. He got that one as well.

he has skill, but there are way too many close clips going on with things that should have hurt him. I call that he had invicible mode on, but did the rest.

I was thinking the same thing while watching it.
