I'm not coming in here claiming to have discovered something, I just want to know what happened. I was playing online against a guy in a Sonic ditto. While he was charging a spindash (don't remember which one, I didn't take the time to notice), I ran up and shield grabbed him. When I grabbed him, his body went into the "Holy crap, I've been grabbed!" animation, but it was all twitchy and spinny. I don't know if there's any use to this because I threw him pretty quickly, but I haven't been able to replicate it. Of course playing two controllers by yourself is pretty hard... I think it was either lag that did it (even though I've honestly never seen lag do something that weird in Brawl), or something to do with the point of the attack he was in when I grabbed him. So has this happened to anybody else?

EDIT: I didn't see the glitch thread a minute ago, so I'm going to go post this there. Please lock this or delete it or something.

Was he really spinning while you grabbed him?

If it was twitchy, well, things like that tend to happen on edges or hills.
