Straight from the video description :
You thought 'Game over' was the only limit break able to beat Ruby Weapon in one cast ?
You were wrong !
Details on Nanaki's equipment :
Weapon : Limited Moon (in order to inflict 9999 HP with 999 MP, when Ruby Weapon is alone)
- Added Effect + Time : with the lowest Battle Speed and Howling Moon's Haste, Nanaki can inflict [Slow] to Ruby Weapon and attack four times in a turn, which is primordial.
- Added Effet + Destruct : Nanaki can inflict [Death] to himself thanks to Ruby Ray's Confusion and 'Revovery' thanks to the other Materias.
- Elemental + Typhon : Nanaki has Wind attacks, one of the only elements Ruby cannot absorb/nullify with Holy.
- HP Plus : Nanaki gains more HP from the artificial "Regen" of Poison.
Armor : Mystile (cause Comet2's comets to miss very often, and other attacks too)
- Elemental + Choco/Mog : Nanaki absorbs his own Wind attacks and has a 19% chance to absorb [Death] and gain 'Recovery')
- Elemental + Poison : Nanaki can absorb the elemental attacks of the Poison status, and recover 9999/32 = 312 HP each turn, which is primordial too, when Ruby Weapon is alone.
- Added Effect + Transform : avoids the right tentacle to cause Small and Frog.
Nanaki has [Sadness], too, and a Jem Ring to avoid Slow-numb.
It's funny to see that the whole strategy is based on Elemental and Added Effect Materias, that most people don't use a lot !
...but also that victory is impossible without Ruby's [Confusion] and [Poison] status, and [Berserk] and [Death] on Nanaki himself : sometimes, masochism can help.
Musics :
1) Queen - Princes of the Universe
2) Scarface - Push it to the limit
3) Basshunter - Russia privjet
When I saw that video, I first thought he did an overflow on Ruby. Well, not really, but he only input'd ONE command. I found this very impressive. The guy who made this is Acro, FF7.FR's webmaster and leader of Neo-Midgar French retranslation project. Sorry yous guys, his game is in French, but who can blame him? ;D
Anyway, here's the video :

Write your impressions here, he'll see them.

Cool story, bro.
-
not bad at all

This video contains content from WMG and UMG. It is not available in your country.
yeah, I am pwnd indeed.

Yeah, the guy has merits thinking about such a set-up, but don't expect me to spend 10 minutes watching this...
I've never been the kind of player looking for accomplishments / being amazed by other gamers' gaming accomplishments anyways. So, I'll say it Miles Straume's style (from LOST) : "This guy killed Ruby by entering a single attack command ?!?!... ...WOW" :)

Elemental + Choco/Mog : Nanaki absorbs his own Wind attacks and has a 19% chance to absorb [Death] and gain 'Recovery')
I don't understand this part. Does Elemental + Choco/Mog have a change to inflict/absorb [Death]? What's the 19% about? Does that mean the "Death" attack is a Wind elemental and he'll absorb any Wind elemental attack effects if it tries to inflict Death or not? ...Interesting.
-
Yeah, it seems that, since nanaki absorbs wind, and since the Death effect becomes elemental because of Added Effect + Typhon, [Death] becomes [Recovery]... ...It really is a nice find - I just looked again through Terence's party mechanics FAQ and he doesn't even mention it (or I missed it).
EDIT:
Yeah, I missed it :
Recovery:
A special type of attack, this ability will completely refill the target's
HP and MP. It can function without an Element, but if it does have one, then
against any target that Absorbs the ability's Element, it will inflict Death
status instead of restoring their HP and MP. The words 'Recovery' or 'Death'
will flash up over the target to demonstrate which is being used.
All Recovery abilities are considered to have a non-zero Power stat, which
can lead to certain interesting effects - for example, Cloud defending Barret
from Yuffie's use of an Elixir on him....
And...
Now we can apply how the resistances interact with the ability's statuses.
The following checks are made at this point, in a particular order:
* If the Target Absorbs an Element of the ability:
-- Status Infliction and Removal are swapped. That is, all statuses
that the ability inflicts are removed instead, and vice versa.
-- If the Ability now inflicts Death after swapping Status Inflict/
Removal, then the Target is now considered to have Death Weakness
to the ability, and the Death status is removed from the ability
itself.
-- Likewise, if the Ability now cures Death, then the Target is
considered to gain a Recovery from the ability, and the Death
status is again removed.
-- Note that if a Target both Absorbs the ability *and* has Death
Weakness to it, then the Death Weakness will not be negated, and
may kill the Target.
This really is interesting. As far as I know, FFVII is the only FF in which elemental resistances interact with status effects in such a way.

Its a nice setup...although I think Ruby Weapon is the only one being pwned; I think most of us have escaped unscathed.
