* The very concept of AGDQ itself. A bunch of nerds get together and play video games in order to raise money for charity. The atmosphere is generally upbeat, even when things don't go to plan in a run. People frequently donate in honour of people they know who suffered from cancer in the hopes that others won't have to suffer too. Across the many events they have raised ''millions of dollars'' to support those in medical need around the world. Who says video games can't be a force for good?
* After completing his awesome run of ''VideoGame/MischiefMakers'' in the 2015 marathon, Jackafur gave heartfelt thanks to his supportive friends for helping him with a difficult previous year and capped it by proposing to his girlfriend live on camera. She said yes.
* The group hug at the end of SGDQ 2015's run of ''VideoGame/PrinceOfPersiaTheSandsOfTime''. For context, the run had a lot go wrong with the game crashing twice and the run going sixteen minutes over estimate. Despite this, the runner Henneko kept positive throughout the whole run and many of the donations were made in support of him.
* During SGDQ 2015's ''VideoGame/LuigisMansion'' run, it was mentioned that one of the runners, Veman, normally wouldn't have made it, but his mom (affectionately called Ve-Mom) just decided to drive Veman to the event for 10 straight hours, completely unplanned. Said mom appeared on camera after the run to the applause and cheers of the audience.
* During Noir's ''VideoGame/HalfLife2'' speedrun, there was a donation towards hitting his friend on the couch with the pillow he was sitting on. After doing so, much later, there was a donation on payback, with his friend hitting Noir. Instead, when he was about to smack Noir with the pillow, he dropped it and hugged him, warming all of the crowd's hearts. He still smacked him with the pillow afterwards.
* Partway through the ''Fallout 3'' run in SGDQ 2016, the runner, Progamingwithed, mentioned that the woman on the couch was his girlfriend, and "today is the two-year anniversary of when she [[{{Transgender}} started her transition"]]. The room responded with pure support.
* The runner for the SGDQ 2016 ''Super Mario World'' Low % run, Rezephos, had his grandmother on the couch.
* As schadenfreude as it was, [=Bonesaw577=] gaining ''[[VideoGame/PrinceOfPersiaTheSandsOfTime Sands-Of-Time]]''-at-SGDQ-2015 levels emotional support during his hindered and mistake-laden run of ''[[VideoGame/JakAndDaxterThePrecursorLegacy Jak And Daxter]]'' during SGDQ 2016 was definitely this. Bonesaw's HeroicSecondWind when the $400,000 donation mark was met during the leg-end of the [[spoiler: [[FinalBoss Precursor Robot]]]] fight certainly made it all the better for everyone involved.
* At the end of ''Pokemon Blue'', in recognition of [[MemeticBadAss Gunnermaniac's Oddish beating Blue's Venasaur,]] Keizaron stopped just [[UpToEleven one]] button press short of getting in third place so that he and Gunnermaniac could tie for third together. He waited at least five minutes for this event, and then, for even better heartwarming points, swapped controllers with Gunnermaniac so they could press each other's controllers. They even shared a brohug!
* During the ''Super Metroid'' race at SGDQ 2016, when [=Behemoth87=] was the only player remaining and fighting Mother Brain, the Twitch chat banded together in an unprecedented show of support and, taking a page from ''Manga/DragonBallZ'', offered up their energy.
* Despite (or possibly [[StreisandEffect due to]]) being banned from running in 2017, and spending the week in Japan instead, [=Bonesaw577=] won a character name poll for the AGDQ ''VideoGame/ShovelKnight'' run by a landslide.
* All memes aside, it's quite heartwarming in a way that [[Series/LazyTown Robbie Rotten]] won the character name incentive for ''VideoGame/DarkSouls3'' at AGDQ 2017. After all, they were raising money for the Prevent Cancer Foundation, and Robbie's actor was fighting his own battle with cancer at the time.
** Bubbles Del Fuego ending the run by telling everyone how, when he was recovering from Hodgkin's Lymphoma, watching the first ''VideoGame/DarkSouls1'' run at AGDQ 2013 inspired him to take up speedrunning and that he hoped his ''[=DS3=]'' run had done the same for a fellow cancer survivor drew a huge round of applause and more than a few tears.
* For the 2017 AGDQ run of ''Undertale'', TGH gives a shout-out to his friend Kaizen, who didn't make it to the event because he was getting preventive treatment for a pre-cancer ailment. The audience then broke into applause when Kaizen then shot off a donation message, and began chanting his name.
** The bidding war to "comfort" or "shun" ''Undertale''[='=]s final boss was an absolute ''landslide'' in favour of comforting them. When the moment came up, the entire room began chanting "[[spoiler:HUG THE GOAT! HUG THE GOAT!]]", and broke into applause when the option was selected. Even better? They met the donation incentive to fight the No Mercy final boss, leading to a second bidding war deciding whether to kill or spare that boss. They spared him, and let him sleep as AGDQ 2017 came to a close.
*** The crowd repeated their "HUG THE GOAT"[=/=]applause combo at SGDQ 2018, much to the Twitch chat's amusement.
* At the end of the legendary SGDQ 2016 ''Pepsiman'' run, runner theboyks tells the audience and viewers to go on Twitter and tell the actor from the live-action cutscenes how much they love the game and how much they liked him in the cutscenes, because theboyks actually ''knows'' him and says that he's one of the nicest men that he's ever met.
* Setting up an entire marathon in 24 hours for the Houston Food Bank, titled ''Harvey Relief Done Quick''.
* All the donation comments for ''VideoGame/StarFox2'' during its AGDQ 2018 run, as the ''Star Fox'' and GDQ community celebrate the debut for a game that nearly ended up becoming VaporWare, with the runner and donation comments making liberal references to the fact many fans were desperately playing ''prototypes'' to get their fix.
* During the SGDQ 2018 ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3'' race between [=MitchFlowerPower=] and [=GrandPooBear=], Mitch's NES crashes while both are at the very start of World 4. Poo decides to stop on the spot and let Mitch redo everything to get back up to where he was. Even more heartwarming, the route Mitch takes to catch back up leaves him down one whistle (their route involved them whistling in Worlds 1, 4 and 7). Mitch and Poo agree to just fight the World 4 airship and pretend the extra whistle never existed.
** Even more heartwarming, Mitch was all set to win at the very end; Poo didn't have the hammer suit and Mitch was only seconds behind, and the hammer suit Mitch had would rip through Bowser far faster than Poo's fire flower. And then Mitch's console crashes ''again.'' Poo apologizes profusely and seriously considers either calling it a draw or calling it in Mitch's favor right there on the spot, and it takes hype from the crowd and Mitch assuring him it's okay to keep going for Poo to go on and take on Bowser. The sportsmanship on both sides shows how heartwarming speedrunning can really be.
