Ocarina of Time Miscellaneous Glitches - Mole Link
From ZeldaChaos
Requirements
- 20 or more Rupees.
Instructions
- As a child, go to Zora's Domain, you need at least 20 rupees.
- Get your life down to 1/4 of a heart.
- Talk to the Zora at the top of the waterfall and choose to do the diving game.
- Wait until the timer reads 0:01 and jump off the waterfall. Aim for the rock protrusion that sticks up out of the water to the left of the waterfall (see screenshot).
Result
If done correctly you should fall and hit the rock protrusion headfirst and lose your last 1/4 of a heart as the text box saying you failed comes up, when the text disappears Link will be stuck headfirst in the ground with no life, the game is now "locked" and you'll have to reset.
Explanation
You die because even though the rock protrusion is very, very steep, it's still ground, and you're hitting it at a very steep angle; the game probably freezes because it's not entirely sure what to do with you[r corpse] after the failure message comes up.
