A video of the whole run is available below:As explained in the clip starting around 16:35, Tohelot breaks out of bounds of the level, using a trick to get his character into a part of the level they usually cannot, letting them skip a section.Unlike other speedruns, Tohelot is aiming for a developer tool built into the game.
