Because that age is the best physical condition and brain maturation for certain tasks when you balance it against time living as a functioning human with necessary coordination and muscle control to practice repetitive tasks. There's a reason virtuosos tend to be discovered around 12-15.

Yeah, but oddly FPS gamers peak in their 20s.
Tetris is weird because of the roll method:

Well I mean Mozart didn't make his best stuff at 14. It's just like the first age bracket where if you focus hours every day from age 7 or so you can start hitting the 10k hours mark.

She's 100% right. Speedrunning is some legit turbo autistic shit that shouldn't be encouraged.
Also an insane number of speedrunners are trannies.

Bro I'm not sure a 45 minute game of Tetris is really "speed running".

Bro I'm pretty sure I don't know anything about speed running I just know whenever a single game of Tetris takes the better part of an hour it's not speed anything.

Did he play one game and complete it by sheer genius, or did he practice this for countless hours... like a speedrunner?
Next step is he'll speed run a girlfriend with some cross sex hormones to grow his own boobs.

Tell me you didn't watch the video without telling me you didn't watch the video.
Apparently the controller technique he's using takes hours upon hours of practice alone. Not to mention the hours upon hours to master the game itself.

This wasn't a speedrun, it was an attempt to reach a kill screen, the screen at which a game crashes due to usually some memory overflow due to some variable being too high.
The only way to reach a level or score or whatever this high is to play extremely well to survive long enough to reach where the game crashes.

It was a rhetorical question.
Yesh technically it's different, but it's the same skillset.
