Having read the bomb luck analysis by poodleskirt i was inspired to calculate the probability of getting the bomb luck necessary to complete the black gauntlet route for any% assuming poodleskirt's results for the bomb probabilities are correct.

The result i got was a 19.3% chance of success however for those who want to see the maths look here:

All of these tricks are frame perfect and you have to get far enough away from the blue warp in order to die on the correct frame.
If the screen turns white as the game loads after pressing continue and you start at the start of the temple (except for fire) then you did it right. 1 frame too late and the screen turns white, but the cutscene starts, 1 frame too early and you start at the beginning of the temple without the medallion (no white screen). You have to press continue after dying, save and quit does not work.

This is HUGE, it would mean fire first with bottle (and possibly duped lens just in case because no bow). It would save so much time! Amazing finds!
