Speed runs frequently rely on glitches. There was one for Oblivion where you could glitch through some geometry in the starting area and end up on the other side of the wall that was supposed to be inaccessible until the ending cut scene. The game was 'over' in like 5 minutes

I liked the glitch in Two Worlds - if you don't talk with the fist questgiver (who is a disguised end boss) and instead attack him and get him to hit some villager npc in nearby village with fireball splash damage - all the villagers attack him in revange and kill him quite quickly - and the credits roll :) It's like 3 minutes and it (unintentionally) makes a great statement - normal people don't need heroes, we just need to work as a team and we can win by ourselves ;)

2 minutes, 26 seconds is not the world record, but this run is hilarious: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NeR-bT3uv0
