Hat in hand is a glitch that causes Mario to hold his hat during normal movement.
The '''Hat-in-Hand''' glitch is a glitch that causes Mario to hold his hat in his hand, as if he was stuck in his putting-on-a-cap animation. When holding objects in this state, the objects' models don't render, which means the [[HOLP]] will not update.

Due to its property of causing the HOLP not to update, the Hat in Hand glitch has been useful in some [[challenge]]s such as the [[A Button Challenge]]. Although it has often been obsoleted by [[pause buffered hitstun]], it's still required for [[Mario Wings to the Sky]] in 0 A presses and [[Pole-Jumping for Red Coins]] in 0.5 A presses.
It's also the only way to place crazy boxes at a remote HOLP, which is used in the current fastest method for [[Ride Big Boo's Merry-Go-Round]] in 0 A presses.

The glitch can only be done if the cap is close enough to the cap block when the block respawns, so it needs to be stopped by a wall. Seeing as there are no walls near the cap blocks in [[Bowser in the Dark World]] and [[Lethal Lava Land]], the glitch can't be done in these courses.
Even though there are no walls near the metal cap block in Wet-Dry World, the glitch can still be done with that cap because it can be stopped by the water. This requires raising the water level exactly once, so it reaches above the cork boxes and submerges the cap.<ref>[https://youtu.be/PMsWqiZ5Aa4?t=34 "WDW Top O' Town 0x Alternative Strat using Heavy Chuckya" by pannenkoek2012]</ref>
