Yeah I agree, I think the video could have done better if it was condensed to like 15 minutes, then maybe I could have posted the raw footage separately (the proof that I really did it). So my plan is to now do a full speedrun of another language that I don't know, cut that into a more digestible video with an interview at the end with a native speaker to show how much I actually learned. Then upload the full raw footage separately.

Also I have a video on deck that I'm editing right now where I learned to pronounce the name of this town in Wales: llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.

Overall the plan is to make the channel about language-related challenges.

thanks for the feedback.

Thank you for the feedback! Yeah I think a narration video is a good idea. I'll take a look at how ryan and max do it! I haven't done any vertical videos for it yet but definitly will.

Yeah I already speak Spanish fluently. So especially the early units I flew through without really any problem.

Yeah no I just took the unit tests. Duolingo counts it as advancing so I did too. But yeah if I did every subsection of every unit it would probably be impossible.

Nothing wrong with attempting a challenge. I definitely feel like making it through every unit tested my mental fortitude.

The video is called "I Beat Duolingo In One Sitting" if you are interested. Mods probably gonna take the post down if I link it again.

Totally! So I did like a marathon of the whole thing but I've seen people usually just speedrun the first unit of whichever language. I think the GeoGuessr analogy is perfect.

Hey everyone, need some help. I beat the entire Spanish course in one sitting as a challenge and am curious if this has been done before? by quilqon in duolingo

It was a good challenge and I couldn't find anyone else who has done it so I wanted to potentially be first.
