The last rainbow road glitch randomly happened to me when my brother hit me with a green shell on that exact same spot. He got pretty pissed since those were the last two laps :P
Bonfist :D The Rainbow Road skip isn't complicated, it's just very precise. It requires near-perfect accuracy and completely screws you over if you mess up even once.
I love that when I googled this question and your video came up, it wasn't filled with a bunch of filler words and crap. It goes straight into what I was looking for, somewhat easy cheats and glitches and how to do them with a simple explanation of what you're doing, not just a video. Perfect. This was like the perfect generic answer to "what kind of glitches can I try in mariokart 64?"
There's another one on Royal Raceway. I found it myself and have never heard it mentioned in a video. It barely ever works though, I used to be better at it. At the very end of the big ramp, take a sharp left turn and aim for the exact corner (where the hill is to your right) and make it all the way over the water, clipping directly through the rocky cliff part of the ground, but exactly in the corner of it. If you get the right place, you fall underneath the map, into a grey void and land in invisible water, then Lakitu picks you up close to the end of the lap. It probably doesn't save much time but I loved it when I found it as a child.
Hey I've got a glitch for you, if you still have a star, use it while crossing the finish line at the end of the second lap, this will cause the star music to keep playing until the race ends, even though you no longer have the star
On mario kart 8 for the wii u, there is a secret shortcut in rainbow road special cup that IGN didn't know: once you reach the gliding section, go to the lowest part, at a time, you will see a part of the track that is far ahead, drive fast toward the far track and you will save yourself some time and make your friends go "how did you do this?"
YET AGAIN you show me how I could have been destroying my friends in my childhood. But I'm happy to see I discovered a few of these out all by my self as a kid. Like the first jump from the beginning ramp of rainbow road, because who hasn't tried that? Or the Kalimari desert star glitch, because we ALL would go in there many many times as kids just to mess around, and then all the sudden you just HAPPEN to have a star and activate it when the wrong way sign comes up, and you noticed you skipped a lap, and as kid you freak out. But never, EVER, NEVER in my life have I experienced greater glory, then when I did the Wario Stadium wall jump glitch, and was the talk of the neighborhood amung my friends for a week or two. But I only knew how to do the first jump, I had NO idea you could jump back like that.
My childhood. Oooh, I used to tear people UP with those little turtles. I used to used that little lightening bolt and destroy everybody. The best glitch I found by accident was playing backwards. I had no idea how I did it, but it happened. Also, the glitch on Rainbow Road was nice too. I did that on accident as well.
Preach im sat on sum next level computer that i can c my home from space, yet all i wanna do is tear it up on tetris…. the good ol days alright..i had the big ass gun/scope for the SNES too, dammn
I've been watching your 'Son of a Glitch' videos for about two hours straight now.. just wanted to say that I fucking love you man. I don't own nor will I buy 90% of these games - but the intricacy and skill required to pull some of these off are quite intriguing and worth every minute of watching =) please, keep the videos up; I look forward to your other playlists as well.
Definitely a couple in there I didnt know about. What I love about this MK is the fact you could bounce over walls and such. Dont think that's as possible in anything since then. I also noticed the tracks were more open andlet you explore more.. rather than having walls on the side that confined you to the road (though MK7 seemed to get better with this).
I remember discovering the Wario Stadium glitch with my cousins...but only jumping over the first one. Didn't know you could jump back over at the other spot. xD That's awesome.
Watching this now, it looks like your voice changed from the times of this video to the latest ones BTW, I'm that guy that said that in S3&K, you wouldn't get a quarter of ALL the glitches in the game... I guess you proved me wrong and did great as always!
Wow I knew about the Wario Stadium and DK Jungle Pkwy glitches long ago, but surely not the other ones. For such a classic video game that could never get updated like today's games I could imagine people have figure out so many more exploits by now.
Thank you so much son of a glitch. I spend hours watching your videos, you entertained me glitching this game and i even watch games that i will never get. KEEP IT UP =)
YES! I was looking for someone who did these kind of videos on youtube. Thank you so much! Also: Liked and Favorited Besides: You just gained a Subscriber!
Ah nostalgia and I remember attempting all those glitches except for that sell one. Back then there was some guide that had a bit more info on some other glitches such as going through yoshis egg all the time but I forget how it was done
Im so confused because you use both pronunciations between american and british. You clearly have a southern british accent like me, so you say mario kart with the a as in 'carry' here but in other videos you say mario with the a of 'argue'. Whats the deal hahaha
well now I finally know what happened on toad's turnpike as a kid. I was goofing off practicing speed boosting with the power slide, and got the first part of the glitch. when lakitu dropped me, bowser hit me at just such and angle I flew through the wall. I was a little kid and didn't even understand the concept of glitches, so I just sat there and stared wondering what happened there.
I remember when the ds was a big thing and there was a game for it, a avatar the last airbender game, and one day, ( this was before i even knew what a glitch was) i discovered a out of bounds glitch. And it wasnt a small one, it allowed you to explore the whole map, and even escape the camera and keep walking forever. The best part was i was so confused.
I remember when I was young, every time I went to my uncle's house I would play OoT but would never go to the great Deku tree or really progress in the game, mostly because I was too afraid to fight enemies and go in the lost woods... It was great though nonetheless, I even found out my own "glitches" that let me get on top of certain houses in kokiri forest. I was a real OG doe.
A lot of these glitches were shown in the strategy guide for this game back in the day, precisely to get world record times. (Wario's Stadium's the only one I've ever pulled off, but man it's fun.) Shame we don't see stuff like that anymore.
Nice video, showing off the skips in a quick, easy and clear way. There are 2 major skips on Luigi Raceway that are not included in this video. I haven't played this game in a few years, so I can't explain the skips very well. One of them involves a blue shell. :) Edit: There is also a good skip on Choco Mountain. Yoshi Valley has a small skip near the end, which you'll never see if you do the big skip shown in this video. The smaller one is much easier to do and requires no particular items, but it only saves a few seconds. And there are probably others that I can't remember right now.
There should be a warning on this episode stating that if you do this against your friends, may lead to injury. Seriously, my friends got soo mad when I tried a couple of these.
nice going, even managed to pull a few of this glitch-cuts myself but you forgot the other two wario stadium glitch-cuts for those, that can't manage these two. The corner before the (second) big jump (before the finish line) with the uneven track and the wall right after this jump, just before where the finish line would normally be, though you might need a mushroom to do them. I don't remember if I needed them.
There is also a glitch in the battle mode where if you choose the double deck stage, go to the top deck and fall through the middle hole. Now right as you fall off the top deck hold left, B and A, and if it worked then you should be doing some crazy stuff! Try it, see what you can do. Have a nice day:)
I knew all those glitches, and now I'm wondering how I got to know those when I was 5 years old and internet was just a fraction of what it is today, lol. Another cool glitch in this game : in the "ghost race", you can get in the waste bin. Put Bowser next to it, take a mushroom with a second character and use that mushroom to propel that characer onto bowser. Jump at the right time, and your character will go high enough to get above the bin's collider. Then your character is stuck forever in that bin, mwahaha!
In my childhood, almost all of these were known, but were often regarded as myths since nobody could ever replicate them, and the internet wasn't very matured as a resource back then.
i tried the frappe snowland one with my friends and they said:"what are you doing?" and i said "winning" and i beat the race in 53 seconds and they left the room
I always do this glitch at 1:02. Suprisingly enough, they made it a thing for Wave 2 of Mario Kart 8's Booster Course Pass. As for Frappe Snowland at 1:25, I only do that glitch for the two laps, and then race around like normal in the final lap. Because f** the final lap. Same with Wario Stadium. Except I didn't bother hopping over the red and white wall.
There's also a wario stadium glitch where you're opponent could send a racer halfway BACKWARDS I was playing that with a friend and did that... I was so pissed XD
lol at Toad shouting "I'm the best!" at 1:45 after blatantly cheating his way to the finish line hahahh
Swarney
He's the best cheater
I'M THE BEST!!!
Bup
"I'm the best!"
No Toad, you're a -wizard- cheater.
thespideroi "I'm the cheater!"
😂
The mushroom who lived
Heh when I used to play the game and Toad would say that, I'd always mock it and say, "I'm the pest".
You're a cheater, Harry.
The last rainbow road glitch randomly happened to me when my brother hit me with a green shell on that exact same spot. He got pretty pissed since those were the last two laps :P
I love it when that kind of stuff happens!
I did the first jump against my brother and then I decided o do the one afterwards and I waited at the finish line for him XD
+Bonfist :D to*
That has to be very funny
Note to self, be wary if a friend suddenly suggests playing mario kart 64.
Wanna play a game?
It's called don't die.I think you will like it.You play it by running from me while I laugh manically while holding a blue shell.
64 likes. Lol.

Toad's scream will haunt my nightmares.
+Tim “McFoozel” Mason (slow) whoooaaaaaaaagh
+Tim “McFoozel” Mason Koopa Kung Fu would disagree.
+Tim ‘McFoozel’ Mason Me too first I started looking out my window to see what it is but it seemed to be the video.. Scary.
+Daanio Hollandio Hi :D
Toad's scream makes me laugh.
All of these except for the Frappe Snowland, Yoshi Valley, and Rainbow Road ones are hard as balls
Ikr
It is rainbow road. It is notoriously hard
+Twisted Cyborg666 no, rainbow road has never been hard, just extremely complicated.
same thing
Bonfist :D The Rainbow Road skip isn't complicated, it's just very precise. It requires near-perfect accuracy and completely screws you over if you mess up even once.

Spindashpro I love you
Hi
Hey I've got a glitch for you, if you still have a star, use it while crossing the finish line at the end of the second lap, this will cause the star music to keep playing until the race ends, even though you no longer have the star
happened to me randomly and didn't know what caused it thanks
On mario kart 8 for the wii u, there is a secret shortcut in rainbow road special cup that IGN didn't know: once you reach the gliding section, go to the lowest part, at a time, you will see a part of the track that is far ahead, drive fast toward the far track and you will save yourself some time and make your friends go "how did you do this?"
But my wannabee NCee, IT'S A GLITCH VIDEO ABOUT GLITCHES. NOT SECRET SPOTS.
Minrod Vils I do that shortcut every time I play the course!!!!!!
What do we do if we don't have any friends?
Soul Essence Get Yourself On Ebay Or Amazon
YET AGAIN you show me how I could have been destroying my friends in my childhood. But I'm happy to see I discovered a few of these out all by my self as a kid.

It's weird, I'm oddly nostalgic for this video now, it's been in the back of my mind for almost a decade now

I had no idea how I did it, but it happened. Also, the glitch on Rainbow Road was nice too. I did that on accident as well.
thats what im thinkin, mario kart was the muts nutz , the joy of four player battle mode fukin up evryone with my 3 brwn shells. legend, i want it bk
SĮŃŚĮŃ The good ol' days.

I've been watching your 'Son of a Glitch' videos for about two hours straight now.. just wanted to say that I fucking love you man. I don't own nor will I buy 90% of these games - but the intricacy and skill required to pull some of these off are quite intriguing and worth every minute of watching =) please, keep the videos up; I look forward to your other playlists as well.
This should be the defenition of binging a youtuber

I also noticed the tracks were more open andlet you explore more.. rather than having walls on the side that confined you to the road (though MK7 seemed to get better with this).
The only episode that features the gameplay audio for the WHOLE episode
Well, most of glitches in this game are lap skips...😅
I remember discovering the Wario Stadium glitch with my cousins...but only jumping over the first one. Didn't know you could jump back over at the other spot. xD That's awesome.
It's not really a glitch but more of an unintended execution that the devs didn't intend to happen.
+Scott _05 that's basically what a glitch is...or at least I think
its more of an exploit than a glitch
like the rainbow road exploit
Watching this now, it looks like your voice changed from the times of this video to the latest ones
BTW, I'm that guy that said that in S3&K, you wouldn't get a quarter of ALL the glitches in the game... I guess you proved me wrong and did great as always!
I love those beautiful, ambient Toad noises.
I've done the last rainbow road glitch by accident. :P I'm so bad I'm good
This video allowed me to absolutely DESTROY my parents'old records. Thanks for a good time with some glitches
The last one I did unknowingly O_O
I was surprised and laughed so much, I lost anyway xD
sad story but you made my day ahahah
hello darkness my old friend...
Wow I knew about the Wario Stadium and DK Jungle Pkwy glitches long ago, but surely not the other ones. For such a classic video game that could never get updated like today's games I could imagine people have figure out so many more exploits by now.
very, very cool. you just changed the way i see mario kart 64 forever. thank you.
How do these not have more views!?
Not sure, but with your guys help, they will i hope someday :)
@@AStartShow Here you are my friend.
This video was awesome! Thanks for putting in so much effort :D
Thanks for being awesome :)
Thank you so much son of a glitch. I spend hours watching your videos, you entertained me glitching this game and i even watch games that i will never get. KEEP IT UP =)
Never knew these existed. Thanks for the Intel.
Whoah that was a lot of glitches for one game! Great job as usual on these! :)
Yeah, there was a lot to cover haha but its better for it :)
Definitely! :)
It's not even close to what is possible. There are many more glitches including winning Choco Mountain in under 20 secs.
3:18 “You’ll finish the race.” Are you sure because I just saw Donkey Kong pass by 😂
I'm glad Dorkly linked your video, got addicted and watched your whole glitch playlist in one go, great stuff, got a sub from me :P
Its so cool when you play with friends and do some glitches : )
They do not see it and know it @ the first time! So FUNNY!!!
Thank you again!
snow land, Yoshi valley, and the last part of that rainbow road glitches are the only ones I didn't know about. Thanks!
YES! I was looking for someone who did these kind of videos on youtube. Thank you so much!
Also: Liked and Favorited
Besides: You just gained a Subscriber!
I love this channel I will now begin binge watching
Oh sweet memories...
I knew almost all the glitches you showed, but some of them were hard as hell
3:14
I remember trying that glitch as a kid on the Wii version. I was a total noob!
Ah nostalgia and I remember attempting all those glitches except for that sell one. Back then there was some guide that had a bit more info on some other glitches such as going through yoshis egg all the time but I forget how it was done
Me and my brothers used to do that first Rainbow Road glitch pretty much every time we played that track. :)
These shortcuts are crazy. I can complete all 3 laps on Frappe Snowland in under 20 seconds.
I love Toad's scream! AHHHHHHHH!!!! ROFL
Im so confused because you use both pronunciations between american and british. You clearly have a southern british accent like me, so you say mario kart with the a as in 'carry' here but in other videos you say mario with the a of 'argue'. Whats the deal hahaha
Ampisound did not expect to see you here lol
This is great! Was not aware of a few of these tricks...
Well done & Thank you
i love youtube vids like this and this is one of the best ive seen yet youve earned a sub keep it up
(:
well now I finally know what happened on toad's turnpike as a kid.

And it wasnt a small one, it allowed you to explore the whole map, and even escape the camera and keep walking forever. The best part was i was so confused.
The Famous rainbow road shortcut is really cool. I did it at a competition between me and a few friends, now I have to try these other ones for fun.
I remember I was playing with my friend, and on rainbow road, I just started flying off the ramp, going in a straight line.
I find it amusing I knew most of these glitches as a kid, I found them out on my own I guess that's what makes them special. :)
i came to these videos for glitches but stayed because you have an amazing voice
how the hell did some people fiquire all these gliches out?
You wouldn't want to know the hours I spent in font of a TV with a N64 as a kid.
Nev uh :D :P
I wish I was a 90s kid 😔

The last one on Rainbow Road was incredible...
A+Start: *Plays as Toad, clips Rainbow Road with a green shell*
Me: Ah, so you've subscribed to SmashBitsAnimation too?
literally all of these tricks are used in speed runs, and yes sense there are so many glitches, its considered a speed run.
an any% speedrun :)
A lot of these glitches were shown in the strategy guide for this game back in the day, precisely to get world record times. (Wario's Stadium's the only one I've ever pulled off, but man it's fun.)
Shame we don't see stuff like that anymore.

The smaller one is much easier to do and requires no particular items, but it only saves a few seconds. And there are probably others that I can't remember right now.
My sisters and I used to pull this crap on each other all the time because we were too good to have any fun competition legitimately.
That makes no sense, being too good to play legitimate? You mean good at glitches? That doesn't make you good at the game.
We were too good to beat each other. Always tying and stuff. In order to have a clear winner we would have to cheat.
So this is where bup's voice comes from.
There should be a warning on this episode stating that if you do this against your friends, may lead to injury. Seriously, my friends got soo mad when I tried a couple of these.
What a spectacular video. I just love seeing things like this. Thank you very much for your work :D
Thank you for watching :)
i love your voice and videos. i aprieciate that you take the time to do this! really your awesome! xD
Cant believe that new tricks are being found to this day! Mario Kart For Ever!
Abel Aramburo on n this same game or the series in general?
nice going, even managed to pull a few of this glitch-cuts myself but you forgot the other two wario stadium glitch-cuts for those, that can't manage these two. The corner before the (second) big jump (before the finish line) with the uneven track and the wall right after this jump, just before where the finish line would normally be, though you might need a mushroom to do them. I don't remember if I needed them.
Oh I actually found the glitch in Frappe Snowland as a kid :D My sister and me made use of it all the time haha
I saw a few speedrunners use the rocket boost to get the lap skip in Yoshi Valley.
I did the toad Turnpike Skip, and i fell into water, guess that was part of the old track design, if there even was an old track design 🤷♂️
If my friends and I had known about these tricks back in the late 90s, we would have dropped more f bombs at each other.
the screams from toad in this game always get me XD
There is also a glitch in the battle mode where if you choose the double deck stage, go to the top deck and fall through the middle hole. Now right as you fall off the top deck hold left, B and A, and if it worked then you should be doing some crazy stuff! Try it, see what you can do. Have a nice day:)
This video is awesome. Very well explained unlike the people that just show you.
great channel
Ryan Oliver Daugherty Recio Thanks dude :)
+Ryan Oliver Daugherty Recio I AGREE!!!!
+A+Start This is good but evryone want a race. Good video
I knew all those glitches, and now I'm wondering how I got to know those when I was 5 years old and internet was just a fraction of what it is today, lol.
Another cool glitch in this game : in the "ghost race", you can get in the waste bin. Put Bowser next to it, take a mushroom with a second character and use that mushroom to propel that characer onto bowser. Jump at the right time, and your character will go high enough to get above the bin's collider.
Then your character is stuck forever in that bin, mwahaha!
Do Mariokart super circuit son of a glitch!
In my childhood, almost all of these were known, but were often regarded as myths since nobody could ever replicate them, and the internet wasn't very matured as a resource back then.
Awesome episode. But I did see a video that showed a glitch in Bowser's castle at that 270 degrees tower
I just found out becouse of this video that i found when i was 5 years old (now im 13) the glich with the Green shell on rainbow road.
That song at the end of the video sounds a lot like the song used in the opening ceremony of this past olympics
Love this game!
I have a friend who beats me pretty often...gotta get these mastered. The look on his face when I skip laps...hahaha. PRICELESS.
Has to be done!
Toad knows all of the tricks in his turnpike.
The rainbow road lap skip reminds me of the hyrule jump :P
Ahhhh I remembered these! still have the cheatbook i got them in :D
Wow! That is so cheap. lol! Good thing you did this against the computer because if you did this against friends, I bet they'd be pissed.
im sure the cpu is somehow pissed
computer:"i hate my programming so much."
Olive Barber lol! Both comments are funny!
i tried the frappe snowland one with my friends and they said:"what are you doing?" and i said "winning" and i beat the race in 53 seconds and they left the room
Olive Barber lol! Go figure.
I always do this glitch at 1:02. Suprisingly enough, they made it a thing for Wave 2 of Mario Kart 8's Booster Course Pass. As for Frappe Snowland at 1:25, I only do that glitch for the two laps, and then race around like normal in the final lap. Because f** the final lap. Same with Wario Stadium. Except I didn't bother hopping over the red and white wall.
Nice work :D
Thanks dude, nice comment :)
I play the crap out of this game and I use most of these cheats all the time and have mastered them. Nice video!!!
I remember trying all of these as a kid. Never could do any of them.
Mario Kart Wii is still my favorite
All the other characters seeing Toad pull all this shit off: "Toad u cheating bastard!" Lmao
That video was pretty rad.
This video was very nicely put together. Thought you should know.
I appreciate that, thank you :)
You need yo do this video again with all of the new skips found recently 🐸
There's also a wario stadium glitch where you're opponent could send a racer halfway BACKWARDS
I was playing that with a friend and did that... I was so pissed XD
3:20 Finally, someone who pronounces Yoshi's name right! (Other than me, that is.)
At the end of Super Mario 64 DS peach pronounces Yoshi's name as Yo-Shee.
3:16 if you stay out-of-bounds the lap still counts sometimes, but it's a lot slower.
My brother loves performing those glitches!
