From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tool-assisted speedruns usually extensively abuse glitches, such as this zipping trick which makes travelling through walls possible.

  • At the first ladder, player presses up when he's already almost above the ladder.
  • At the next three ladders, player presses up and down. The third sequence goes through a wall without a problem.
  • At the fourth ladder, the player presses up and down in order to do a "horizontal early ladder grab" without climbing, saving a small amount of walking time.
  • At the fifth ladder, the player does both the "grabbing the ladder early horizontally" and the "grabbing the bottom of the ladder" trick simultaneously. It is noticeably faster than to jump later and higher, when the space is 3 blocks tall.
