Some more glitches that I've found over the past few weeks that deserve a compilation.

BARREL JUMP TBS
Something which you may notice if you've ever run DK64 is that if you get a barrel jump in Training Grounds, but don't make it to the next barrel in time (most common with Orange to Barrel Barrel), it looks like DK stalls his movement for a short time.
What is happening here is that the game is forceably changing you into a certain animation after a certain amount of time since you exited the bonus barrel (after completing the minigame).
We can use this mechanic to get Tag Barrel Storage, by entering a Tag Barrel before this point, and then getting forced out of the 'Barrel' animation by the barrel jump properties.

If you don't know what Tag Barrel Storage is, I'd advise you look here: youtube.com/watch?v=pDeqTIWBeDE

Using this, I demonstrate a small game quirk that I found a really long while ago. If you complete Numbers Game in Factory as another kong, the GB spawn cutscene will not play until DK is tagged.

BBBANDIT JUMP CLIP
BBBandit = Batty Barrel Bandit
Getting a barrel jump out of Factory BBBandit and moving in the correct direction will allow you to clip out of bounds.

WEAK DK
Just a small oddity that I found whilst messing around with grabbing different objects with ScriptHawk. It turns out that if you place a key on top of a TNT Barrel (Might work with any object), you cannot pick up the TNT Barrel at all (until the aforementioned object is removed).

FUNGI ANTENNA PUSH
Continuation from my Antenna Push video a few weeks back. You can get it in Fungi, although it's kinda difficult with DK (You can even do the old style Japes Torch Push method on it). Tiny Antenna Push in Fungi is really really easy.

Big note though: You cannot perform Antenna Push anywhere on the PAL and Japanese versions of the game.

CHUNKY GUN SKEW IN JAPES
This was in N64 No Levels Early (Helm Escape Route) for all of 13 hours. I made a quick video then, thinking that it would be in for longer, but I guess it serves well for routing.
The general idea is that you've got to surface with a very vertical angle, and as soon as you surface, you've got to swim over DK's cage, and then first person to pull yourself out of the swimming animation. It provides very weak skews, but it is sufficient to clip through the gates to GBs/Painting Room
