This is how you finish the old-school classic ‘Snake’

Someone did it. Some mad genius actually beat the Nokia classic Snake. The users time clocks in at the fairly lengthy time of 13 minutes and 7 second. This gif, embedded below, is a sped-up version of the lengthy game of Snake, and uses a fair amount of dodging and tricky moves to complete this legendary title.

There are exactly 100 pellets, and a snake that fills the screen until it reaches a ludicrous 801-block length python. It’s not a robot either. We’ve played Snake, and that’s the hand of a human being carefully guiding the slippery fellow towards victory. The Snake gif made its way from a Russian website to Reddit, where it picked up speed and is currently the most popular gif of all time. Scientists even predict that the gif could simultaneously eradicate world hunger and end all wars. Or it’s just a cute gif of a very determined Snake player.
