I made it to level 22. But I cheated. I saved and loaded the game in mame.

I bet that was hard to do even with the save state.

Pretty Cool!

Go watch "King of Kong". It is explained what happens and why.

And that is a testament to the skill of 'those DK guys' that you can cheat your ass off and still not even come close to their scores.  ;D

Logik & visitor q: Thanks guys!
It took me several hours, I would play until tired then save it to continue later.

Martijn: On the kill screen, you play for about 10 seconds, then all the barrels disappear and mario dies. I think he dies like the other ways, but the screen shot I took he happens to be looking that way.

Sharidan, Actually, I wasnt trying to do a testimonial to Billy or Steve, although I was trying to go for Billy's score, I just wasnt greedy enough for points on the lower levels.
I dont see how those guys could sit at the machine that long without at least taking a leak.
And I watched King of Kong. Im still not 100% convinced that Billy didnt cheat.
He gave that video to the elderly lady and told her to protect it with her life. Then at the show the video looks strange to the judges. Then Billy says it was a copy of the original.
That right there looked like something fishy. And the judges sucked up to Billy like his word is un-disputable. At least I admit that I cheated.

Thanks ummon, I thought I was going to make it but the kill screen kinda crept up on me.

Thanks pinballwizard79, I am growing a mullet even as we speak! (I already have several crappy ties.)

That video is moot since Billy set the record in public.
