—-Backwards Long Jump—

The Backwards Long Jump is a glitch that can be found in Super Mario 64. There is a cap on positive speed, but not on negative speed, and long jumping multiplies your speed by a specific value. Therefore, long-jumping backwards will multiply your negative speed exponentially without bound, which is why it can be used to clip through walls and reach the top of the endless stairs without 70 stars.

—-Impossible Coin—-

MIPS Hole’s article on the Impossible Coin has everything I have to say. Besides the fact that if you want to learn more, you should check out the video on the article by Pannen.

—-Half A-Press—-

Check out this, and this says a bit more. (Look under 17: “What are half-A presses?”)

—-Mystery Goomba—-

Again, MIPS Hole’s article has everything I have to say. Once again, watching the videos will give you more info.

—-Parallel Universes—-

Check out this.

—-L is Real 2401——

One of the most popular rumors to exist. Believed to be on the Star statue (“Eternal Star” is the most common reading), and hinting towards Luigi. Coincidentally, 24 years and 1 month later, Luigi’s beta model was found in the Gigaleak.

—-Spaceworld ‘95 Beta—-

The most well-known beta of the game. There is an ongoing attempt to recreate this beta, known as The Preservation Project.

—-Whomp’s Fortress 1-up—-

On the tower that appears on every star aside from Chip Off Whomp's Block, a 1-up can be found hidden within the tower by breaking the bottom of the back wall. How this knowledge first came to be found is a mystery... that will force us to dive deeper into the iceberg...
