Elusive Glitches: The Story of Early Explosives

Glitches such as Barrier Skip and Moonwarp are considered to be Holy Grails of 3D Zelda Speedrunning. In this video, I recount the story of the Holy Grail for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D. A trick known as Early Explosives.

The footage used in this video comes from a number of sources. Any footage of the original game came from either ZFG or Exodus122.

The footage of Ocarina of Time 3D starts out being upscaled on the emulator Citra. But recording footage on Citra turned out to be very time consuming, so instead I opted to record most of it on my own 3DS (this is why the video quality seems to get worse after the deku tree cutscene clip).

Some of the concepts I explain in this video are greatly simplified. Here are links to more technical explanations:
