Lunaris
Smash Ace
I originally posted this in the Pikachu forums, but looking at some comments on the video I decided I'd go ahead and post it here.
Apparently some characters have a glitch(?) that extends the range on some of their moves after doing certain attacks.
Example:

(no, i don't know of a video of it on youtube or something)
Pikachu does a downsmash near the homerun bag, and his headbutt(rapid A) is extended to the point where you could call it a disjointed hitbox. There's a lot of questions which don't seem to be answered by the video, as he just stands in place headbutting and doesn't move, do any different attacks, adjust his range, etc.
The reason I decided to post it here is because there's a chance it could exist for other characters. According to one comment on the video(it's at the start) this also works for Snake(he doesn't say how; literally he says "this is also possible for snake"). Other than that, a cursory reading of other comments on the video reveals nothing of importance. Well, I guess it could be a point of interest that the video refers to it as the "Mach Headbutt"(lit speed of sound headbutt), "onsoku zetsuki" in japanese.
Here's a link to the Pikachu post, I'm not copying and pasting the text into this one(feel free to if you think it's worth it):

Most of the questions I thought up are there.
This could be pretty serious **** if it works on other attacks or the range is infinite(or both, god forbid). But given the lack of any demonstrations in the video its use is most likely limited.
