Mila De Jesus’ distraught husband George Kowszik has spoken out following his wife’s tragic death at age 35.
Kowszik, 61, took to social media earlier this week to share a heartfelt tribute to his late wife, who died of suspected cardiac arrest on Jan. 12.
“My wife loved me and believed in me through God which impacted my life and hers together,” he wrote on Facebook on Jan. 16.
“I was short but often our lord has his own ways of his people. I will never ever forget what God has blessed me and my beautiful and her very wonderful children God has also blessed with me.”
Kowszik went on to thank loved ones and the late Brazilian-born influencer’s fans for reaching out during such a devastating time.
“Hello..Everyone of my wife’s and I friend’s and family,” he continued. “Your beautiful kind, caring and loving beautiful words and incredible inspiring PRAYERS… Have instilled such PEACE..in my life of 60yrs on this earth I ever felt.”
“I’m sorry I can’t talk right now.. crying too much. forgive me,” Kowszik added.
The touching tribute came just days after Kowszik’s initial Facebook post on Jan. 13, which read, “I am not really good with words and talking here. I lost my beautiful wife and my best friend yesterday that I love so much.”
The pair had tied the knot in September and were still planted firmly in newlywed bliss at the time of De Jesus’ sudden death.
She leaves behind four children from a previous marriage.
De Jesus’ son, Pedro Marçal, also paid tribute to his late mother, writing, “Rest, mom. I love you so much and no one will ever love me like you. God bless you.”
The Instagram star shot to fame after undergoing a major weight loss transformation, which she commemorated in a November Instagram post juxtaposing pics of herself before and after the procedure.
Just months prior, the content creator announced that she’d been suffering from psoriasis — a skin disease that causes a rash with itchy, scaly patches — since July.
DEAR ABBY: I am a 40-plus-year-old single male. I recently started hanging out with one of my friend “Tom’s” ex-girlfriends. It is now turning into more than friends. “Pam” and I both have feelings for each other. She and Tom dated for five months and broke up eight months ago.
Do I owe it to Tom to ask his permission or tell him I’m seeing her? Pam has asked me to not say anything and to let him find out on his own, which will happen because we have many mutual friends. I want to respect her choice. But also, as Tom’s friend, I feel the right thing to do is tell him. Please advise. I’m stuck between her wishes and doing what I think is right. — STUCK IN THE MIDDLE IN IOWA
DEAR STUCK: Have a talk with Pam. Explain that you are not sure how Tom will react if he sees the two of you arm-in-arm with no warning. He may not care, but he also could be upset that you are dating and hid it from him. Then tell Pam that, in light of your friendship with Tom, you prefer being upfront because it’s respectful and you don’t like keeping secrets.
DEAR ABBY: My mom died a couple of years ago and left behind many collectibles that are worth reselling. I am the oldest of five children and have spent the most time and effort moving out her collection, with a lot of help from two of my siblings, “some” help from one and absolutely none from another one.
In her last days, Mom mentioned not to “forget about the gold.” She had collected some scrap gold that I sold for $900. I have been sorting through the remaining inventory with no help from any of my siblings. Is it wrong of me not to share that cash with them? — OVERWHELMED SIBLING
DEAR OVERWHELMED: If you truly felt comfortable pocketing the money, you wouldn’t be asking me this question. Listen to your conscience and share the proceeds from the sale of the precious metal with your siblings. To leave one of them out would guarantee an estrangement.
DEAR ABBY: A friend of mine was asked to leave a restaurant after the check had been paid because people were waiting for tables, and he was highly insulted. My position was that it was courteous to leave because people were waiting to have their dinner. He felt the waitress had no right to ask their party to leave. What is your take on this? — COURTEOUS IN THE EAST
DEAR COURTEOUS: I consulted Priscilla, operations manager at my favorite restaurant in Beverly Hills, about your question. She explained that some restaurants have a 90-minute time limit for diners to leave the restaurant. (For larger parties, it can be up to 120 minutes.)
My take on this is that rather than making it the responsibility of the server to ask your friend to give up the table, the manager should have come over and done it. It needn’t be an unpleasant exchange. A manager may sometimes offer the patron a seat at the bar and a free drink or dessert in the name of good customer relations.

“I posted on social media asking if my followers could connect me to this girl’s mother,” DeBlass told The Post. The fighter hoped to offer the victim martial-arts training.
Then the bullying crisis hit closer to home. Adriana Kuch, a 14-year-old student at Central Regional High School, DeBlass’ alma mater in Berkeley Township, NJ, was beaten up in the hallway at school. Footage of the attack was shared on social media, and she killed herself days later.
“I can’t even understand the level of meanness,” said DeBlass, 40, of Kuch’s attack. “I always want to help, but I am getting sick of saying I am sick of bullying. I said, I have to do something about this.”
Last month, the father of two teamed up with fellow Brazilian jiu jitsu teacher Shawn Fowler to start Buddies over Bullies, a nationwide antibullying outreach organization that aims to provide “sensible solutions for those being bullied.” DeBlass hopes to connect victims with free jiu jiutsu training and therapy. He will also lead education programs about self defense, coping skills and empowerment.
So far, the New Jersey resident has helped 10 kids in different parts of the country get free jiu jiutsu training. And more than 100 schools have registered to be part of the programs after DeBlass launched a website earlier this week.
Most recently, he is working with Kailinh Wiley, a Washington teen who was beaten by a classmate that was captured on video last week, and trying to get her training.
He did eventually connect with Jennifer Berrios, whose daughter was in the viral video out of Florida. Berrios’ 10-year-old son was also a victim. Now, the two kids are in their second week of jiu jiutsu, courtesy of DeBlass.
“I’m probably an emotional mom, but every time I see them out on the mat, I am crying. They needed those skills. They are learning self defense,” Berrios, 30, told The Post. “What Tom did was amazing.”
She said her son is more confident while her daughter is getting structure in terms of how to better defend herself.
“Kids shouldn’t be scared at school. What Tom is doing should be a wake-up call to schools, too. How many stories do we have to hear? This is happening to so many children,” said Berrios, whose kids are now doing virtual schooling at home.
DeBlass has always vocal about bullying, self defense and mental health. In his 2021 memoir, he revealed that he had planned to kill himself in college and had been been pushed around as a kid.
“I know what it’s like to feel hopeless. When I see kids who don’t have those coping skills yet, the papa bear in me comes out. My heart breaks for them,” said DeBlass.
When he started sharing his intentions to start Buddies over Bullies, his inbox filled up with people across the country wanting to be a part of his initiative.
“If I stood up, I knew I’d have support from people. It’s really moving now. The jiu jitsu community has really come together,” said DeBlass. He said he has a network of former military, law enforcement and even some members of motorcycle clubs involved.
Mitch Aguiar, a former Navy Seal who owns Violet Hippie jiu jitsu in Virginia, has offered free training at his academy. “Tom reached out, and I said, ‘I’m in.’ Jiu jitsu is such an effective defense, and it builds confidence,” Aguiar told The Post.
DeBlass said he’s willing to go the extra mile. Even if it means personally intervening with schools and parents if situations aren’t resolved — and abuse continues.
“The last-case scenario is talking to the parents of a bully,” said DeBlass. “But these kids [who’ve been bullied] are taking their lives. They feel like they have no support.”
A passenger aboard a flight from New York City to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, is being credited with saving a fellow passenger’s life after she experienced a medical emergency.
The routine JetBlue flight from LaGuardia Airport to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport took a terrifying turn when a woman suddenly fainted in the aisle as the crew was handing out drinks.
A passenger on the plane said the woman collapsed about an hour into the flight and the pilot was preparing to make an emergency landing when a man stepped up to help the ailing woman.
Photos obtained by Simon Gifter and shared with Fox News Digital show a man wearing blue gloves assisting a woman lying on the floor of the plane. The woman can be seen with an oxygen mask on her face.
The man can be seen rendering aid as other concerned passengers gather around.
The passenger who took the photos said the man was a trained Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) and was able to get the woman stabilized, so the flight could continue to its destination.
The woman was said to be conscious and talking when the plane landed. An ambulance reportedly met the plane after it landed, and emergency personnel boarded the flight to take the woman off first.
According to FlightAware, the plane landed one hour and 35 minutes late.
Fox News Digital reached out to JetBlue for more information on the incident but has not yet heard back.
From psychedelic drug trips to wicked stepmothers, Prince Harry continued dishing royal family secrets and scandals Sunday on “60 Minutes.”
All week, Harry, 38, has been on a hype-heavy promotional tour for his book, “Spare,” which is filled with details such as Harry calling Prince William’s hair loss “alarming,” and Meghan Markle visiting Princess Diana’s grave to ask for “clarity.”
Appearing on the legendary CBS news juggernaut Sunday Night, Harry continued dropping bombshells on interviewer Anderson Cooper, 55.
Here are the biggest blockbuster moments from the tell-all interview, from Harry’s “nasty” fight with Prince William, to blasting stepmother/consort Camilla, and more.
William ignored Harry in school
Prince Harry fired shots at his brother Prince William right out of the gate. Anderson Cooper questioned Harry about how William didn’t talk to him while they attended school together, according to his book.
“At the time it hurt,” said Harry. “I couldn’t make sense of it. I was like, ‘What do you mean? We’re now at the same school. Like, I haven’t seen you for ages, now we get to hang out together.’ He’s like, ‘No, no, no, when we’re at school we don’t know each other.’ And I took that personally.”
Icky ‘wet hands’ for Princess Diana
Harry talked about his walk with William to greet mourners outside of Kensington Palace following Princess Diana’s death.
When Cooper asked what he thinks when he watches the video footage now, Harry said, “I think it’s bizarre, because I see William and me smiling. I remember the guilt that I felt… people that we were meeting were showing more emotion than we were showing… I talk about how wet people’s hands were.”
He explained that he couldn’t understand why people’s hands were damp — but it was from wiping their own tears.
“I do remember one of the strangest parts to it was taking flowers from people and then placing those flowers with the rest of them,” Harry said, looking a tad squeamish. “As if I was some sort of middle person for their grief. And that really stood out for me.”
He also said that he cried for the first time when Diana’s coffin went into the ground. “There was never another time,” he said.
He thought Diana wasn’t really dead
Harry went into detail about his mother’s death in a famous 1997 car crash, and his reaction to it. “For a long time, I just refused to accept that she was gone. She would never do this to us, but also part of, maybe this is all part of a plan,” said Harry. “Then that she would call us and that we would go and join her, yeah.”
Harry said that William had “similar thoughts” and he held onto this belief for “years.” But when he was 20, he asked to see the police report about the crash that killed his mother, in order to have “proof.”
“Proof that she was in the car. Proof that she was injured. And proof that the very paparazzi that chased her into the tunnel were the ones that were taking photographs —photographs of her lying half dead on the back seat of the car,” he said.
He doesn’t have all the answers about Di’s death
When Cooper asked Harry if he feels that he’s gotten all of the answers about what really happened when Princess Diana died in a tunnel in Paris, Harry said, “Truth be known, no. I don’t think I do. And I don’t think my brother does, either.
I don’t think the world does.”
Drinking and drugs
Cooper questioned Harry about his use of pot and cocaine in the past. Harry said he did it in the years following his mother’s death, as a response.
“I resorted to drinking heavily. Because I wanted to numb the feeling, or I wanted to distract myself from how…whatever I was thinking. And I would, you know, resort to drugs as well,” he said.
He also said that he thinks using as psychedelics, Ayahuasca, psilocybin, mushrooms, helped him.
“They cleared away this idea that I had in my head that I needed to cry to prove to my mother that I missed her. When in fact, all she wanted was for me to be happy.”
Although he wasn’t specific about the timeline of his drug use, he said that his destructive behavior changed because of Meghan Markle. “Rather than getting drunk, falling out of clubs, taking drugs, I had now found the love of my life, and I now had the opportunity to start a family with her.”
Camilla the villain
Harry wrote in his book that he and William directly asked Charles not to marry Camilla. In his “60 Minutes” interview, he continued to blast her.
“We didn’t think it was necessary,” he said. “We thought that it was gonna cause more harm than good.”
He also said that her need to rehabilitate her image from a “villain” in the British press made her “dangerous” because of the connections that she was making with the tabolids.
“And there was open willingness on both sides to trade of information. And with a family built on hierarchy, and with her, on the way to being Queen consort, there was gonna be people or bodies left in the street because of that.”
Harry felt that he was one of these “bodies,” he said, writing in his book, “Camilla sacrified me on her personal P.R. altar.”
Instant mistrust of Meghan Markle
In his book, Harry writes that when he introduced Markle to the Royal family in 2016, his father initially liked her but William was skeptical and called her “an American actress,” disdainfully.
Harry said this distrust started off, “Right from the beginning, before they even had a chance to get to know her. And the U.K. press jumped on that. And here we are…The fact that she was American, an actress, divorced, Black, biracial with a Black mother. Those were just four of the typical stereotypes that is– becomes a feeding frenzy for the British press.”
The royals read the tabloids
Harry said that part of his family’s mistrust in Markle was because they read the press themselves. “My family read the tabloids, you know? It’s laid out at breakfast when everyone comes together,” he said. “So, whether you walk around saying you believe it or not, it’s still leaving an imprint in your mind. So, if you have that judgment based on a stereotype right at the beginning, it’s very, very hard to get over that.”
William and Charles were “furious” about Harry’s statement supporting Markle
In 2016, shortly after Harry’s relationship with Meghan became public, he put out a statement condemning what he saw as the racist way the press treated her. But his dad and brother weren’t happy, he said.
“They felt as though it made them look bad. They felt as though they didn’t have a chance or weren’t able to do that for their partners. What Meghan had to go through was similar in some part to what Kate and what Camilla went through, very different circumstances.”
Markle’s race made her situation different, which is family couldn’t understand, he said.
“I went into this incredibly naïve. I had no idea the British press were so bigoted. Hell, I was probably bigoted before the relationship with with Meghan.”
The “nasty” physical fight with William
In his book, Harry alleges that his tension with William about Markle led to a physical altercation in 2019. He elaborated to Cooper that Willam shoved him and he landed on a dog bowl, cutting his back.
“It was at a time where he was being told certain things by people within his office. And at the same time, he was consuming a lot of the tabloid press, a lot of the stories. And he had a few issues, which were based not on reality,” said Harry. “And I was defending my wife. And he was coming for my wife…through the things that he was saying.”
He didn’t specify what William said about Markle. “We moved from one room into the kitchen. And his frustrations were growing, and growing, and growing. He was shouting at me. I was shouting back at him. It wasn’t nice. It wasn’t pleasant at all. And he snapped. And he pushed me to the floor.”
Harry said that William apologized afterwards, but it was a “nasty” experience. “He knocked me over. I landed on the dog bowl. I cut my back.”
William asked Harry not to tell anyone, he said, but Markle noticed the cut on his back.
When Cooper asked Harry if he and William speak or text, Harry said, “Currently, no. But I look forward to us being able to find peace.”
This influencer’s in the doghouse with her followers.
Kajal Kiran, whose Instagram following exceeds 121,000 users, has issued an apology to fans and animal lovers everywhere after being forced to admit she’d kicked a dog — and filmed it.
India Today reported on Wednesday that the since-deleted reel depicted Kiran with a smile, laughing as she abused the animal. The footage has reportedly been reposted on social media, sparking recent backlash.
“How can you be so insensitive towards these voiceless souls,” tweeted Vidit Sharma, founder of Save a Stray, an India-based animal welfare organization.
Kiran uploaded a video on Wednesday to express her remorse for sharing the “cruel act,” which occurred in the “heat of the moment,” she said.
“I regret my actions and didn’t realize the gravity at that point of time. I vow to not harm any animals,” she concluded.
Her apology message reportedly received over 25,000 comments, which have since been made hidden, including some who threatened to flag her account with Instagram.
On Wednesday, she shared two more posts that appear to depict her feeding stray dogs.
According to Insider, the account also features additional videos of Kiran feeding dogs in an attempt to rehabilitate her image.
Another animal advocate responded to Save A Stray’s Sharma with images of a Mumbai high court complaint over Kiran’s alleged abuse. “Everyone are requested to kindly tag @MumbaiPolice to escalate the same,” they added.
The majority of Americans (81%) are willing to put aside disagreements with others to work on a cause they hold dear to their hearts.
A new survey of 2,000 adults revealed that four in five are willing to put their differences aside to work with someone they usually wouldn’t see eye to eye with when it comes to supporting a cause (78%).
Three in four (76%) Americans are also willing to engage in conversation with someone who holds different views to see if they can understand their point of view.
When asked what topics respondents felt people most disagreed on, politics came out on top (68%), followed by social justice issues (57%), climate change (53%), equal rights (53%) and the economy and the workforce (49%).
Conducted by the Walton Family Foundation and OnePoll to mark National Philanthropy Day on Nov. 15, the research finds that despite these differences in opinions, most Americans (80%) believe people need to come together to solve our country’s big issues.
“It’s heartening that so many people are willing to look toward common ground to find common solutions,” said Caryl M. Stern, executive director of the Walton Family Foundation. “Our problems are too big to solve alone. We need inclusive coalitions to create solutions with sticking power.”
But what motivates opposites to work together? Sixty-three percent of respondents said they’d work or volunteer with someone with different views if they had a shared cause they both deeply cared about.
Still, seven in 10 think working on issues has the power to bring people from diverse backgrounds and perspectives together (70%). In fact, 60% have made a friend who’s passionate about the same issues they are.
The issues identified as most in need of collaboration are climate change (41%), local community issues (40%), diversity, equity and inclusion (39%), growing local economies (38%) and increasing student achievement and opportunities (37%).
And when asked which sectors they think can bring people together, philanthropy came out on top at 45%, followed by healthcare (45%), education (43%), the nonprofit sector (42%) and government (42%).
What do people think are the benefits of philanthropy? Half of Americans see philanthropy as a way to bring people together to tackle tough issues (50%), bring extra resources to address the world’s biggest issues (49%) and create access and opportunities for everyone (48%).
“I’m glad that philanthropy is helping to convene people from across communities and sectors,” said Stern. “This National Philanthropy Day, I’m excited to listen and look for innovative solutions that are bubbling up from people working together.”
An Indian man is lucky to be alive after getting ssssstrangled by a massive python that he was messing with while intoxicated. Footage of his near-death experience is currently blowing up online.
The literally breath-taking incident occurred after Birjalal Ram encountered an unidentified serpent while fishing in Parihara Panchayat, in Jharkhand, Jam Press reported. Upon spying the constrictor, the angler, who was reportedly inebriated at the time, decided to pick it up and put it around his neck like a living feather boa.
That’s when his scaly new scarf decided to tighten its grip. The entangled man then screamed for help, prompting his 14-year-old son, Nitish, and his buddies to rush to the rescue.
In the accompanying clip, Ram can be seen with his neck and head fully enveloped by the ornate reptile like a sentient Gordian knot. His son and his pals attempt to yank the critter off of him, only for Ram to topple into a nearby river with the python still encircling his throat.
They try several more times to free the victim from the snake’s death grip but to no avail.
After a 20-minute tug-of-war, Nitish was finally able to free his father, who incredibly emerged from the asphyxiating ordeal with only minor injuries.
As for toying with snakes, we suspect that, in retrospect, Ram feels that the juice wasn’t worth the squeeze.
Either way, the serpent-attack survivor should thank his lucky stars — and his son — that he’s OK.
Last month, a grandmother was swallowed whole by a 22-foot-long reticulated python in Indonesia — with shocking video capturing the moment her remains were found inside the cut-open beast.
A self-proclaimed “yo-yo dieter” turn “carnivore” is going viral for her proudly anti-vegan diet.
A woman is claiming she lost 30 pounds from just eating an all-meat diet — forget about fruits and vegetables — and racking up millions of views in the process.
TikTok sensation Courtney Luna, 38, spent years chasing fast diets before deciding six months ago that she would stick to eating burgers, steak and bacon, complete with cheese and butter. She claims she’s better than ever, having lost weight and cleared her skin.
Better yet, she alleges she’s even felt less anxious and ditched her medication altogether.
“I eat only meat and animal products so lots of burgers patties, egg, steak, bacon, a lot of cream, butter and cheese,” the California-based carnivore told Kennedy News. “No vegetables or fruit and I don’t even have spices. Vegetables and fruit can cause a lot of issues for people. There are anti nutrients in them and people with auto immune diseases or skin diseases can be sensitive.”
She claims she gets all the nutrients she needs from animal products, and wants to forego the “gas and bloating” caused by vegetables, as well as skip the carbs and sugars in fruits.
“I can get all the nutrients I need from meat. I don’t want the gas and bloating from vegetables. As for fruit, it’s not good to be on a high fat diet and also be on carbs and sugar,” she said. “You need to pick one fuel source. Either you’re burning fat or you’re burning carbs. I feel better on the fat.”
Critics online have dissed her diet, saying its dangerous and could potentially lead to high cholesterol, heart disease and other health problems, but Luna doesn’t care. She’s hell-bent on making this diet work for her and insists it’s the key to her health.
“It goes against everything we’ve been told that is healthy for us,” she said. “Over the last couple of years, I’ve been opening my eyes to blindly believing everything we’ve been told. A lot of questioning everything has been happening.”
For breakfast, she’ll have two quarter pounder patties drenched in three tablespoons of butter, for lunch it’s more of the same along with bacon and at dinner, she eats steak and “carnivore ice cream” made with cream ang egg yolk.
Notice there isn’t a single fruit or vegetable in sight.
“If I were to have a piece of fruit right now it would trigger sugar cravings and before you know it, I’d be at McDonald’s craving a McFlurry,” she insisted.
Not only has she stopped craving sugar, but she actually looks forward to eating her meat-dense meals every day.
“The desires are all gone,” she add. “Once you get the sugar out of your system you don’t have those cravings. Even being around it and knowing it would taste good, there’s no desire. If I had something it would be a slippery slope.”
So, she sticks to her three meals a day — with no snacks because her meals are “so satiating and the fat is so filling” — and claims she never grows bored with her monotonous meals.
“People always ask me if I get bored of eating the same thing. It’s so weird but I don’t. Every day I get excited for my burger patties and steaks,” she said. “I’ve heard when smokers stop smoking their tastebuds come alive and I feel like because I’m only eating meat, meat is all my body wants. It’s so exciting and delicious.”
She began this unusual diet six months ago alongside her husband, and Luna’s results were unbelievable.
“The main reason I tried this was because I was feeling so horrible and lethargic. I would wake up feeling exhausted and this has drastically improved my energy,” she said, touting her 30 pound weight lost and clear skin. “My digestion is better and there’s no gas or bloating from the fiber in fruit and vegetables. My mood has improved drastically. I was able to go off my medication for anxiety and depression.”
In fact, she claims this is the first time she’s tried a diet where weight loss hasn’t been the focus at all. Now, she claims she’s found what works for her and is “sustainable.”
“I’ve been on regular keto that allows for vegetables and treats. I tried Weight Watchers, the grapefruit diet, you name it, I’ve tried it,” she added.
While she admits she receives hate online, where she documents her diet journey, she claims it comes from “not understanding.”
“They think my cholesterol is going to be awful and my arteries are going to be clogged and all the common misconceptions that come with eating red meat,” she said. “When they do the studies on people eating red meat, they aren’t just eating red meat, they’re also eating carbs. They’re eating a potato with their steak.”
She touts over 70,000 followers on TikTok, on which she shares videos of what she eats in a day, along with other information about her diet. She even goes so far as to criticize registered dieticians, saying people shouldn’t “blindly” believe them, but viewers are quick to argue back in the comments and many can’t tell if the creator is kidding or not.
“do you actually do this or is it a joke,” one user wrote.
“this is keto,” another pointed out.
“Girl your diet scares me but your hair looks so slay,” someone else quipped.
“this is absolute quack. you need a balance of fats and carbohydrates in a healthy sustainable diet,” another user wrote on a different video.
“Craziness. News flash: fruits and veggies are good for you,” someone else agreed.
In the event “new information comes out” that their diet isn’t as healthy as they think, then they’ll “reevaluate” — but until then, it’s all meat all the time so long as her bloodwork and mental health are “fine.”
But the Center for Disease Control and Prevention begs to differ. It advises a “variety” of fruits, vegetables and grains to be eaten, along with low fat dairy sources and different sources of protein.
A healthy diet, according to the 2020-2025 Dietary Guideline for Americans presented by the USDA, consists of 2.5 cups of vegetables every day, 2 cups of fruit, 6 cups of grains, 3 cups of dairy, 5 grams of oil and only 5.5 ounces of meat per day.
But this committed carnivore couldn’t care less.
“I’ll be doing it forever as long as it continues to work for me and we don’t learn anything new. I have an open mind,” Luna said. “Maybe in the future, when I’m 75 I’ll have a bagel or something but right now it won’t do anything beneficial for me.”
To pull this off, you probably already guessed that there were some shenanigans and trickery happening in the run. And you would be correct. MitChriz used an Elden Ring speedrunning trick known as “zipping” to basically teleport around the world. This saves a lot of time compared to running in every single place or even using your trusting, double-jumping horse.
Using this trick, MitChriz was easily able to bypass the Limgrave section of the game and then popped straight over to Liurnia, where they use a now accessible waygate to access a late-game area. Using the zipping trick, they then skip past all but one of the bosses and reach the final boss in record time. Using the zip trick they skip past that boss fight too and finish the game in under 13 minutes.
I remember last month when I thought beating Elden Ring in 37 minutes was fast.
What is Zipping in a Game?
Well, it’s a speedrunning technique that has become more popular recently among runners focused on setting new record times in the any% unrestricted category for Elden Ring. On this specific category, players aren’t required to get all the runes, complete all the steps or do anything else that is usually needed to progress through the game. The main goal in this speedrun is to just reach the end and get to the ending as fast as possible using any tricks or methods you can.
And before someone gets angry at MitChriz for using glitches or tricks to beat the game, remember that this is just one type of speedrun category that exists for Elden Ring and that other players are out there setting times for runs that involve beating every boss or never taking damage, etc.
Let’s wait for someone else to beat Elden Ring in under 10 minutes.
