Foreword

Wowza what a category, my hands needed to recover after this for sure, but I had an absolute blast. I have plenty of ideas on how to significantly improve the time in the future so one day I hope to return, though not planned any time soon; until then I am very proud with this time.

Please find below a breakdown of the submission with timestamps of the video and the maths behind the final time, including two minor load remover errors that were specific accidents caused by outside factors, not an issue with the function of the remover itself.
