blj
What does blj mean?
Super Mario 64's most iconic glitch. You spam long jumps backwards against a wall or slope and Mario's speed stacks up with no cap, letting him blast through stairs and walls that should block him.
"He BLJs up the endless staircase and reaches Bowser way under the star requirement."
Origin
Super Mario 64 speedrunning. Stands for backwards long jump; famous for the endless-stairs skip.
Frequently asked questions
Why doesn't the BLJ work in the Switch version?
Nintendo patched it in Super Mario 3D All-Stars, so the classic BLJ only works on the original N64 release and emulators of it.
