-This category utilizes [[L+R Walljumping]] to breach the water pre-colosseum due to the lack of Gravity Suit, Hi-Jump Boots, Ice Beam, and Grapple. It is theoretically possible that this can be avoided on PAL, by performing a [[X-Mode#Superjumps|Superjump]] at [[Mt. Everest]]. This is discussed later in this article.

 Interestingly enough, this was the first low% category ever completed that required L+R walljumping.

 Although all individual parts have been tested RTA, chaining together the collection of tricks (blue suit, G-mode, R-mode convert blue to flash, Jesuswalk Superjump, Botwoon, crossing Colosseum without falling) together would be quite difficult. No one has yet managed this.
-Note this does not appear to work on NTSC.
+Note this did not appear to work on NTSC in bob's testing. However, it was also found to be possible on NTSC.
