UPDATE (28/02/2017): Portal Skew is now possible without tools in Fungi Forest. (See: youtube.com/watch?v=_v9Cei43NTc&feature=youtu.be)
MAINTAINING SKEW IS NOT POSSIBLE ON CONSOLE YET, JUST IN CASE THERE WAS ANY CONFUSION WITH THIS
I found this a while ago when I was messing around with Portals & Levers, but forgot to document it/make a video on it.
By interrupting the kong rotation effect (that you get from entering a DK Portal) with Orange Damage, you can get Skew.
This normally sends you to the portal destination soon after (Level Lobby/Main Level Map etc.).
However, if you interrupt this with a cutscene and then move far enough away from the portal (presumably deloading it), then you can maintain skew as long as you don't go too close to the portal.
Currently, this is not achievable RTA since you cannot move far away enough after the Cutscene ends. However, if we were to find a way (Lever Storage maybe?) to instantly teleport the kong to a location far enough away from the start of the level, then we've got something.
Moving away from the portal was done using ScriptHawk

Was doing some BT Science work and decided to do a kinda-TAS of the secret challenge after collecting all 90 jiggies and completing all puzzles.
Not the best RNG of all time, and found out that you have to wait a certain amount of frames after rotating a piece before you can insert it, but its ok.
Beats previous best time (set by 1234buga) by 6s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXUv5DM5Fwc")

A fair few people were fooled by my April Fools meme last year, so heres something more memey: A TAS of Donkey Kong 64 which collects all 16 currently known Rainbow Coins in 23 minutes.
Until 2017, only 15 were known about. 7 in DK Isles, and 1 in each level (except Aztec which had 2). Then in early 2017, a second rainbow coin in Fungi Forest was discovered, bringing the total amount of rainbow coins to 16 (And did NOT invalidate every 101% speedrun on the leaderboard @kotaku )
