Points of interest:
1. 0:00 At Sewers: if you get swim-glitch without going too far into The Sewers, it avoids a trigger that unloads the Hercules arena. Doing this resets all the levels anew, as if you had arrived at them for the first time(?).
Hercules' arena doesn't reload anew if you do this, but it can *also* be reloaded anew if you then complete the reloaded Caverns. This should let you infinitely reload these levels?
2. 1:11 - 1:47 Mt Olympus: the grapple-area is small and has no collision. Also, the chain has a complex trigger arrangement. Triggering them in the wrong order lets you load The Caverns without unloading Mt Olympus. This loads both these areas simultaneous in the same space.
Not in vid: You can also make Mt Olympus and the Chamber of the Flame to be loaded in the same space simultaneously, but they don't overlap (you just see Mt Olympus nearby, OoB at the Chamber).
3. 1:48 - 2:50 Caverns:
1:51 you can see Mt Olympus and Caverns loaded in the same space.
2:17 Pandora is in her cage.
2:28 Showing that the brambles are on box again. Not in vid: I played through the Caverns like this, everything loaded as if I was there for the first time.
2:45 The Boreas Switch R1-prompt is inactive.
Not in vid: I found the starting-position of the box Hermes appears on, its up very high, immediately to the right of the second box with brambles. However, landing on it doesn't yet load the Hermes appearance scene.
4. 2:50 - 3:41 Chamber of the Flame: there's an invisible R1-prompt OoB, behind the chain. Pressing it changes the chamber so that it has stairs, was hoping it would take me to end-game, but...
5. 3:41 - 7:16 Hermes chase: you can get to the Hermes arena in reverse from the Chamber of the Flame, but Hermes doesn't appear. Doing this causes the Sirens to shoot crazy lights all over the place as can be seen at 4:54 and 5:20.
5:38 Hermes T-pose: you can find a model of Hermes wearing a black costume and a coin at his feet. He's located far away behind the mysterious R1-prompt behind the chain.
6:25 Hermes chase: the R1-prompt at the catapult activates it, but the cutscene doesn't play. If you go to Hermes, you get a glitched, black "scene" but Hermes remains on the Athena statue.
6. 7:17 - 7:55 Music Puzzle: you can solve the sword puzzle, but the game won't respond to your inputs during the musical mini-game. You can activate the prompts at the upper-area as the mini-game starts but nothing happens of note.
7. 7:55 - 10:09 Hercules Arena: basically just sightseeing. You can activate all the various phases with the geometric objects-glitch, but the arena has not much solid floor and Hercules' AI seems broken.
9:22 Far underneath the Hercules arena is his corpse.
