I'm trying to recreate the method used in the world record run, do they have cheats on, does it just take a massive amount of luck to get, is it a specific height?

It doesn't really need luck it just has to be thrown at a specific spot. Also no cheats were used. Here's a video of 2 of the spots, for the first spot you'll need to look down a bit.

is this current patch

Yes

to actually throw a coin through a wall all you need to do is put your face up against a wall and throw a coin. And for making it into the fountain like hooty said getting it in is all in the set up. It isn't super consistent but if you practice it it does become easier.

thanks everyone

I GOT SUB 1 LETS GOO!!!

I've been working on trying to throw this coin through the wall for about an hour and a half now, any tips, or am I still on track? I've gotten it close to the fountain a few times now.
