Crazy Box: Difference between revisions

'''Crazy Boxes''', also called '''Crazed Crates''', are small grabbable boxes which, when grabbed, cause Mario to bounce three times in the direction he was facing, before exploding into five [[Yellow Coin|coins]]. Once Mario has grabbed a Crazy Box, he can change the speed of the bunces with the joystick, but the angle will remain the same.

It is possible to use [[HOLP|HOLP manipulation]] to transport a cork box far enough away that it deactivates. This gives the player time to prepare for catching it.

If a crazy box is carried into water, then it is possible to jump out of the water and throw the cork box. With proper positioning, the player can throw it and then grab it as it explodes.

If a crazy box is dropped along a slope (e.g. by standing still while holding it handsfree) then the player has time to turn and grab the box before it reaches the ground.
