I've noticed several times you'll just drop a bomb, throw it off wherever, and then go do something unrelated, what's going on there? A misfire, or some sort of weird luck manipulation, or what?

He's activating Infinite Sword Glitch off it by interrupting a sword slash with picking up a bomb.

So, with the getting into Snowhead trick, it sounded like if you fell off, you couldn't try it ever again. I'm assuming if you make your way back through a fairy fountain to the mountain top, then you get another try, right? It'd just take a lot of time.

Most of the time speedrunners will just abort runs if they make a major mistake that loses them a lot of time.

Yeah I only know of one person who's actually done a Low% run and I have watched it, but I tuned away when he did the stone tower hover. It takes about 30-40 minutes of straight hovering, which is pretty bad. You would still do this method even now that they've found the owl glitch, because in low% you never get the song of soaring.

Do they count bomb and bomb bag as two separate items in a low%, then? I can't imagine why you'd use the mask over bombs if they weren't.

It's not entirely unprecedented. Someone made Mario Maker inside of Super Mario World by placing some shells in specific places and a lot of frame-perfect TAS inputs.

Check this one out.

Reminds me a lot of the pokemon GBC game glitches. I couldn't find the specific bug I was thinking about that involves faffing with inventory item order and stuff since there are so many bugs for those games.

Yeah the R/B 151 pokemon speedrun uses arbitrary execution like that to spawn pokemon you can't catch in that version. Some runs use more of it, but it's evidently really easy to gently caress up and crash your game.
