I'm sorry i cannot provide a video of this until i find my capture cards power cable or they update to allow uploading to YouTube. So I was playing some friendlies with my best friend on the Wii U console. I was playing Ryu and he was Link (if i remember right) and the glitch happened when he was above 100% damage and tried to grab a fairy bottle but I, who was below 100% at the time, grabbed the bottle and here was he weird part. I had the bottle in my hand and he healed from the bottle. Several things i noticed after this was done. The item then thrown after the glitch had no physics to it. You could throw it any way you wanted and it would just hover in the air. It could also be picked up again no problem. Second is after thrown and sitting there in the sky somewhere, we found it still had an active hitbox to deal damage to others who didnt throw the bottle. I also then wanted to see if the item was still usable to heal so he hit me to 100%+ and it healed me and the bottle stayed in hand. curious even more so i wanted to instantly look to see if i could get to 100% again but in doing so i noticed my character didnt register that i had the bottle in my hands anymore. i could do any form or normal attack but it still had the bottle stuck to my hand. and Z to throw had no effect either. so i got to 100% again and the item didnt exist at all anymore but i still had the bottle stuck to my hand. and thats all i could find out about this glitch but if someone could recreate this and confirm the 2 characters grabbing it at the same time like that is the cause. Currently looking for a cable but wanted to share this asap.

Here is the video, and sorry for the background voice. and enjoy.
hmmmm seems like you both picked up the bottle at the exact time in the frames maybe ryu was a frame or 2 quicker which is why he held it and maybe the game thought it was still on the ground so link healed? i dont know thats pretty crazy

is the hitbox like that of the pacman angry hydrant glitch where you can keep hitting it more than once like using it as a barrier of sorts?

either way nice find thats pretty cool :p

Totally a glitch.
Obvious statement is obvious

Try to do it again, and have fox/falco in the game with shine, so when you throw it so its stuck in midair, hit the shine, blackhole 2.0 maybe? XD

Im currently out of country visiting family but when i get back ill try and see if i can recreate it and that would be an interesting idea especially if we could get like 20+ of them stuck in the air in a line beside each other and see what happens. I feel like it would be fun to try out various things. Also yes i do know it was a glitch and I had a good idea of what happened but not sure how it was possible other than just at the exact same frame or if there was any other mechanics at work here.

That's for you to know, and me to find out
I know there are a TON of same frame glitches in this game, mainly with level 9 com.s or just sheer luck on multiplayer. My brother was playing as little mac against a lucario (lv.9) and he used the K.O punch, and the lucario tried to grab. They both took damage and lucario still grabbed little mac, and everytime he (lucario) punched they both moved backwards. We don't have any recording equipment and I don't think we could re-create it, but it seems that you and my brother both found glitches due to same frame actions and the game not knowing what to do with the data presented.

We were jst playing against each other in the first place and if you see in the video i was Ryu and basically trying to keep my friend off the bottle and just before he tried to grab the bottle i tried to grab it as well and it just happened. im pretty sure it may come down to frames of the moves we used to grab the bottle maybe?
