"MODnike18" was the first to claim a time of 27 seconds on this level, on August 22, 2000. He was [http://pub20.ezboard.com/fperfectdarkelitefrm5.showMessage?topicID=229.topic met with almost universal disbelief] (many still do not believe he had actually obtained that time at the time he claimed it) but, if nothing else, the ''possibility'' of 0:27 War A was real; over a dozen other people later matched his time, and several of them provided video proof. It became the longest-standing non-[[Duel]] world record in [[Perfect Dark]].
On November 20, 2002, ''eight hundred and thirty days later'', [[Bryan Bosshardt]] obtained a time of 0:26, by pulling off a strategy which had long been discussed but never put into practice: repeatedly using the small explosions generated by the [[Phoenix]]'s explosive shots to [[boost]] himself forward. Boosts from explosions are less effective in PD than in [[GoldenEye 007]] but were still enough to cut a second off the [[WR]].
