A lot of people are wondering where the proof is that God created the earth in only 6 days, but you have to understand that back then, speedrun dot com didn't require video proof of records. The community was built on trust.
However, with current strats it's believed sub 5 is possible.

Diners and restaurants have a rich culture steeped in history and tradition. This is why they sometimes give you an extra straw for your table: just in case one of you is secretly the legendary Tommy Two-Straws, who has finally returned after all these years.

Someone appears to have actually made some Crydamoure fan music in the year 2025 and I find it very enjoyable.

The citizens of Thumb-opolis gasped. The government had promised this would never happen again.
I am now Mayor of Vampires.
To be clear, I am not a vampire myself. I also don't know of any vampires where I reside but as soon as I do I will be mayor of them.
This is an elected position where I vote for myself every year.
Interestingly, no one else has bothered to vote so far.
The only reason I know about it is because one of its co-founders also went on to co-found Crydamoure records with a member of Daft Punk.

Pumpking records is an obscure label that released records in Paris in the 90s & not everything from it is available on youtube, although it seems most of its catalog can be bought off discogs.

Huh. Apparently that last track might actually be real?
Someone else found it in a youtube video that claims to be sourced from 2005: youtu.be/5hSuVlj0uEw
I will end this list with a track from Le Knight Club that is probably fake. It has a discogs entry but the only primary source for its existence is this youtube video. It sounds good, but is it a real abandoned, unreleased track? Like I said, probably not.
