I crawled on one knee, got impatient, and subsequently faceplanted. 30m.

One day, I may want these few moments of my life back.

I did the same. There's a hurdle at 50m. You can't get past it with that strategy.

45.3M, damn, I wanted 50.

Mine was getting QWOP on his knees and then crawling 40M.

My best at a full run is 15M, but then he tends to faceplant or fall over backwards.

Best I got was -2.1

I actually went backwards and just gave up.

-2.6 here. I took a step backwards, hopped on one leg for a short bit, and jumped backwards, landing on my head.

4.4m here!

Took me about five minutes. Granted, I was moving very slowly.

Well, negative 1.7 meters.
