To glide to the cliff: super charge down the ramp, press x at the very end to jump while still holding square. At the peak of the jump, release square and press x to glide. It is extremely difficult to get the timing right, but if you follow all of these steps exactly it does work. (Embarrassed to admit how long it took me...)
I had a big fear of spiders as a kid, when it came to dealing with those giant metal bugs I had to hand the controller off to my older brother. Because I couldn't concentrate, I would be just running in a panic from them because I couldn't hit them with Supercharge.
If I remember correctly those spiders had one of the most bull***t hitboxes ever. Cause I remember trying to jump and glide over them only for me to get hurt IN MID AIR even though I was clearly over the mandibles and NOT EVEN TOUCHING THEM!
4:13 In this last part, after destroying the third fan, you would have let the piece of the destroyed fan fall on the blue boy in the egg to die, so it was not necessary to chase him to kill him physically.
OMFG! I have the worst arachnophobia even when dealing with some games. As a child I just gave up trying to complete this level 100% because those things scared me so bad. When I was older I bought game and completed every level with the exception of this stage... It literally took me a year just to face my fears and try and collect the gems those horrid creatures harbored. *shivers* UGH! I still hate those ugly bastards...
It took me a while to complete this level for that same reason. Going into the caves with the bugs made my heart race even if I was protected with supercharge or superflame.
@@nuclearcatbaby1131 I remember as a child being hung up for days about this level. Then finally gathering the courage to just kamikaze my way in there, screaming and all with eyes half closed 😂😂 funny to think about now.
I'm not too too afraid of spiders anymore, but still these things make me feel a tad bit uneasy. I remember the first time I can here I was like "Let's charge into the cave." and when I saw them I was like "Holy Shit! Fucking run!"
The music always seems to load up a few seconds late in the PAL version of this level. Also the music's cooler, and Cyrus is Green in the American version.
FOR EVERYBODY STUCK ON THE JUMP AT 3:53. When you're running down the ramp, keep holding down the square button and jump at the end of the ramp, then when you get to the top of your jump release square and glide. The most important part is jumping off the end of the ramp while holding square at the same time
Ben Dover I have but it just shows Spyro supercharging and leaping without really explaining like you did here. I tried doing exactly what you said here but it still didn't work
i like this European version of the High Caves song better than the American one i play, being its related to Tree Tops, which is not my favorite level.
What an awesome game. what I loved most about it was how it was both very funny and chaallenging at the same time. Many games for kids , or rather younger audience, seem to lack that challenge and doesn't push them enough. It's sad...
I think this level caused my arachnophobia... Its the metal that causes panic because you can't hurt them normally. I think they're the only enemy in the game (along with the knights) you can only beat with supercharge or superflame? But the knights don't chase you...
I'm just here comparing ps1 to ps4 versions, and some mapping and characters don't match up! I was curious to see what it looks like. So far the playthrough is the same for me and I'm a fan of these games. The spiders look fully different!
I might have to skip this level because of the jump at 3:53 I just don't get flung high like in this vid... I'm always too low no matter what I do. At least it doesn't cost you lives since I lost all but 6 trying to get past the spiders and I have tried over 10 times to make this jump. Yes I'm new to this game, got it on the vita.
@killerpandagaara thank you! Finally I made it across! I kept trying the analog stick and it never worked, but the X-square combo worked like a charm :)
FourSwordsLord if you wait long enough in each level the music changes from its original track that plays whenever you first enter it like the first track repeats itself a few times then goes to another
This is the PAL version. The NTSC-U, and more recently Reignited, for some reason, versions uses the Tree Tops theme you mentioned whilst all other releases (PAL and NTSC-J) use this one.
I'm going to record Spyro 2 just to be after this game a 100% full orbs,Talismans,gems. I need to find this game to buy it. I cant seem to find it anywhere! Anyway Very Good and Awesome

+applebritta he just nose dives for me when i do that.
+Mac MashPotato practice first just when running pressing x at the same time(square and x together). That the same that you have to do for this
carson turner I managed to do it by sliding against the cliff side
applebritta thank you!!!!!
Thnaks! :D
When you release all 3 of the dragons in this realm the music playing during the cutscenes is that from Dark Hollow.
This is the PAL version, and this was the intended music for this level not the music we in the NTSC region got.
I had a big fear of spiders as a kid, when it came to dealing with those giant metal bugs I had to hand the controller off to my older brother. Because I couldn't concentrate, I would be just running in a panic from them because I couldn't hit them with Supercharge.
That was the same with me. This game gave me really good memories...but it had its scary enemies and moments too.
I’ve never been scared of real spiders but those metal spiders in the caves scared me.
In the PS1 version of this realm upon entering, it's one of the few levels where Spyro does not do his aerial backflip when he arrives.
If I remember correctly those spiders had one of the most bull***t hitboxes ever. Cause I remember trying to jump and glide over them only for me to get hurt IN MID AIR even though I was clearly over the mandibles and NOT EVEN TOUCHING THEM!
I couldn't complete the game 100% when I was younger because of those spiders.
Those spiders are the reason I never completed the game 120%. I was afraid of those things when I was a kid and i still hate them.
Travis the Dragon same here
6:16 is where I was missing the last gems. Thank you😊
The music takes so long to load in that I’m always scared that I’ve damaged my disc 😂😂😂
Spiders. Oh the memories. Got scared until the kiss came into to rescue
What a way to introduce kisses to kids lol
omg those spiders used to terrify me haha. but i loved this zone and haunted towers because of the kisses :p
They even haunted me in my nightmares. It didn't help that I played this level at night...😅😅😅😅
For me it was the mechanical sharks in Spyro 2
@@ShamanMcLamieThe blue frogs at the swamp terrified me as a kid. No fairies to protect me there 😢
I hated those spiders as a kid
3:16 actually a very difficult move. Very impressive
I can do it by charging at the very edge after gliding. You can gain a small advantage in this way. Try it out. 😉
4:13 In this last part, after destroying the third fan, you would have let the piece of the destroyed fan fall on the blue boy in the egg to die, so it was not necessary to chase him to kill him physically.
5:48 Funny that if you don’t kill the druid it magically blocks the spider-infested cave exit like the trolls they are 😖

2:00 This would be more impactful if you explored the spider-infested caves before meeting him
3 Dragon Elders in this level: Cyrus, Ajax, Cedric.
Those metal bugs used to scare the crap outta me
this level used to scare me because of the iron clad spiders
The music always seems to load up a few seconds late in the PAL version of this level. Also the music's cooler, and Cyrus is Green in the American version.
Wow playing reignited now.. the graphics are crazy!

Thanks for the detailed info on the jump. Most appreciated!
OMG thank you so much. Was getting so frustrated there
Have you played level 22 Tree Tops? The supercharge platforms there are crazy hard. Hope you can help to describe how to pass that one. Thanks!!
You couldn't find any helpful videos on TH-cam? Fazlia Zakaria

I like the Tree Tops music for this level more. Gives the level a creepier vibe imo
This level was fun. Tree tops was not.
In some versions of Spyro 1 High Caves music is a slowed down version of the Tree Tops music.
Giant bugs?! And a very pretty fairy lady!
What an awesome game. what I loved most about it was how it was both very funny and chaallenging at the same time. Many games for kids , or rather younger audience, seem to lack that challenge and doesn't push them enough.
It's sad...
The fact that the dragon cutscenes in this realm play the music from Dark Hollow only applies to the PS1 version.

God damn those spiders freak me out, I always hated having to do this level lol.
This is May favorite level, and the shortest one!
Look how fast he got to the end! But of course if you want to complete the game you gotta do more
High Caves is easy peasy for me to beat.
@@mackenzieasbury9216 damn.. I commented that nearly a decade ago. Wild to think about. even wilder that this channel still uploads!
I did what you did and he still won't get high enough for that patch of land.
3:57 how to get high jumping? my jumping is low so i am never finish to jump at this location
I think you need to stop pressing charge just at the right moment.
I'm just here comparing ps1 to ps4 versions, and some mapping and characters don't match up! I was curious to see what it looks like. So far the playthrough is the same for me and I'm a fan of these games. The spiders look fully different!
I might have to skip this level because of the jump at 3:53 I just don't get flung high like in this vid... I'm always too low no matter what I do. At least it doesn't cost you lives since I lost all but 6 trying to get past the spiders and I have tried over 10 times to make this jump. Yes I'm new to this game, got it on the vita.
The JadedJay you have to jump after the charged thing while youre on the platform
5:57, my favourite part of this game.
@killerpandagaara thank you! Finally I made it across! I kept trying the analog stick and it never worked, but the X-square combo worked like a charm :)
awww did little spyro blush?
@liaracute hold X + square near the end of the supercharge ramp. i had the same problem
@Apprent2695
Automatic.
Why dont they make anything like this anymore.
They do?
Kinda weird how theres all these dragon eggs but no girl dragons.
So much anxiety. Watching u jump and fly.
When I played it I got different music?
Hated the metal bugs!
Ragazzi, Spyro the dragon high caves come si fa volare di più? tasti X?Aiutamiiiii
3:49 How are you getting so much air? Your easily going twice as high as i am, im trying to copy exactly as you do, i cant make it over.
wtf is with the High Caves music? It's not like that in other copies from what I've seen...
FourSwordsLord if you wait long enough in each level the music changes from its original track that plays whenever you first enter it like the first track repeats itself a few times then goes to another
I have beaten Spyro the Dragon 1 and can access to Gnasty's Loot.
@Apprent2695 Those are fairies.
Boys, Spyro the Dragon Wizard Peak as you fly more? X keys? Aiutamiiiii
Why the are the Wizards and Druids fighting each other?
RandomGfan 19 I always assumed it was because they were competing with each other to see who had the more powerful magic.
They are enemies, probably because of differences.
How Do you jump so High on the boost? I can never get to the other ledge, any ideas?
How the heck do you do the jump at 4:00. I have tried, like, twenty-five times, and just can't get it.
The music is different. 00-
Those bugs aren't spiders they're meant to look like armored stag beetles

@killerpandagaara thanks for ending the100th jumps to get the right side!!!!
Yes
High caves.
planet: earth🌎.
realm: dragon realms🐉.
element: magic✨.
terrain: mountain🗻.
@JasmineHatake lol i got it last year! XD but thanks
No I dont I have PSP PS1 PS2
@CautionIMThinking i bought it from there. XD
Why High Caves in this video has different music?
This is the PAL version of the game
Lot of banjos?
@@shippy1991 That's where you're correct.
In the PS1 version of High Caves when releasing a dragon in this level the music playing during the cutscene is that from Dark Hollow.
Where the Tree Tops music ? This feels wrong .....
This is the PAL version. The NTSC-U, and more recently Reignited, for some reason, versions uses the Tree Tops theme you mentioned whilst all other releases (PAL and NTSC-J) use this one.

Do you have a PS3?
5:57 wow a zoofilic gaita and a pervert dragon
This isn't the music to this level????? I play this old game all the time
Depends on what country you're in. American release has a different soundtrack for this level for some reason.
The NTSC-U releases and the Reignited Trilogy have a different theme. This is the international (PAL and NTSC-J) version of the theme.
O yeah I know what you mean.
Could the bugs one hit KO you?
No, they only took 1 hp
Fuck i can't never reach the other side at 4:00. And he does it one shot. Im near my 60th try. Need to murder something
ohh....it's easy, run down the hill then just jump on the ledge of the ramp and then glide!
@dalek22 +1 :) good memories :)
@KisharoDragonwings since thats true Don't play Skyrim
This is not the original music for High Caves 😆
Actually it is. NTSC-U and Reignited use a different theme.
