Xe laso Dot Net Slash Contact @theprincessxena THEGAMER How An Ionizing Particle From Outer Space Helped A Mario Speedrunner Save Time Q Super Mario 64 speedrunner DOTA_Teabag received some cosmic help from an ionizing particle, resulting in an impossible glitch. During the race, an ionizing particle from outer space collided with DOTA_Teabag's N64, flipping the eighth bit of Mario's first height byte. Specifically, it flipped the byte from 11000101 to 11000100, from "C5" to "C4". This resulted in a height change from C5837800 to C4837800, which by complete chance, happened to be the exact amount needed to warp Mario up to the higher floor at that exact moment. This was tested by pannenkoek12 - the same person who put up the bounty - using a script that manually flipped that particular bit at the right time, confirming the suspicion of a bit flip. 3:49 PM Feb 7, 2021
