Stone Mario Hammer Suit was a form so godly powerful and forbidden it needed to be sealed away.

The Chain Chomp has always amused me. Like, why 50? Who is ever organically going to wait that long to discover it? Would have been an awesome normal enemy effect if it was say 3 or 5 lunges.

Finally one of these lists where it doesn't just show common things. Usually I know every single one... This one, I knew 5 only. Thanks.

The chain chomp escape was definitely in the player’s guide. I think Mario 64 also made a homage to it

Impressive list! I knew 10 of them, mostly stuff I've seen in speedruns or TASes, or while working on SMB3 videos. A few of things that blew my mind:
- The Star kill boom boom I thought was gonna be obvious, but the star + block on the same frame got me!
- The Fire Flower + Coin/Star block really blew my mind. Incredible interaction!
- Bombs flashing using Mario's color made me really mad. How did I never notice this!!!
These "x things you didn't know about this game" lists are always garbage, but I know a great speedrunner like you would actually deliver sick obscure knowledge!

In a Chuck 'e Cheese restaurant, climb into the stage when the curtain is closed, and enter the staff room. You will find Chuckie's suit hung up on a rack along with a computer on a small office desk.

1:10 Isn't that cute, he's trying to attack me lolz

One thing Mitch doesn’t know: it’s possible to wear a hat that’s a different color from his backdrop, so half his head doesn’t disappear when he keys out the background.

You can prevent a softlock with the Bowser star kill if you touch him for only one frame. If you kill him again anytime, it will softlock. Same with shells.

Most lists:
Did you know that in Mario 3 there's goombas?! It's crazy!
This list:
Did you know that if you hit block 214 in level 3-4 with exactly 77 seconds on the clock you can turn Mario into a sentient pumpkin? But it softlocks the game :(

0:11 this is also a very good demonstration of how the cloud items in the sky are randomly generated :)

[MINE_OK]

1:18 I actually knew this. Idk why….. I just do

Killing diagonal Thwomps also allows you to juggle them, and they also keep their hitboxes after "dying", which is funny.

[BlackPopeye]

I knew about the 1up tune but it only happened one time and when it happened I had to ask myself "Did that really happen or am I hearing things?" Glad to see it really happen after all these 32 years on the 12th

The tanooki statue to hammer suit glitch got me one time on accident. I went from super tough hammer suit Mario to dead little TIME UP Schmuckio.

That chain chomp one is so scary. Imagine just leaving the controller for fun, and coming back to seeing a chain chomp that has broken free all of a sudden, without your knowledge of why.

[fromthegamethrone]

This is amazing. No fluff, just straight up content back to back.

More please.

[Buglin_Burger]

That chain chomp one... is actually pretty common "hidden" knowledge.

0:37 should be used as a fnaf jumpscare

5:30 that overworld music is a groove tho c:
