Almost 150 attempts... I didn't think this would be so difficult. All the hitscanners in the map can mean an instant reset, but so do the imps and pinkies that surround you in the final room. Also, many resets were due to rocket-self-damage; there are several places where you *need* to shoot rockets really close.

Anyway, this 1m47 was decent enough. The time can be lowered further, of course. One easy way to lower the time is to collect the rockets behind the waterfall earlier, while shooting the shotgun to kill the imps. The hard way to lower the time is at the start: ignore the button upstairs, go directly for the yellow key, and do an SR50 jump across the water to get to the yellow door.

This trick was performed by Dime in his UV Speed record of this map (with damage taken, of course). I did try the SR50 trick myself but I couldn't get it done consistently without a setup. However, even after I got a setup that worked, the time to move into position to perform the setup was enough for imps and zombieman to approach and block the jump, or hit me. Furthermore, killing all the imps and zombies there takes more time than going up and pressing the button; so I ended up doing just that.
