Dab glitch occurring in the Bowser fight arena in Bowser in the Dark World after collecting the basement key.

The Dab is an animation glitch caused by Mario's head angle not being reset when interacting with a star or a key. If Mario collects a star or key while in C-Up mode, Mario's head will be tilted in the direction it was in C^ mode during the celebration animation. This glitch is only possible on the J 1.0 version of the game as it was fixed in the English version or later.

Execution

After beating Bowser in the first or the second battle and activating Bowser's death animation by finishing reading the textbox, move Mario directly under the dying Bowser to stand in the same spot where the key will drop. Then go into C-Up Camera mode to change which way Mario's head will be facing. Mario's head will be stuck facing the same direction the moment when the key becomes tangible after it finishes bouncing.
