FIXED Video
Original had some problems. I've re-done it so now it syncs up properly. Ugh I need to stop experimenting and just go with what works already...

Anyway this is one crazy glitch that completely leaves the level and puts you on a wild flight with an invisible (non-existent) keg. The camera was going crazy at times where I could not control it properly (Never mind trying to keep Rayman on screen!)

Those tentacles popped up on the path (where in the other video they didn't), but it was so sudden here you could almost freak out.

I THINK I can half-way decipher this craziness. Apparently, the Pirates's blaster somehow triggers the Keg to explode, but it actually causes it to ignite, RIGHT before it exploded, which is why Rayman started to fly with it.

Rayman's flying animation can only be stopped 2 ways:
1)The Keg explodes (Rayman takes damage and is forced to let go)
2) He drops off the keg early (Pressing the A button)

Since he already took damage, the Keg explodes but you continue to fly. Nothing inanimate can hurt you while you are flying but the non-existant Keg, or dropping into dangerous water.

While flying like this, you pass through the graphics quite easily because there aren't really any invisible walls to prevent it (this is an old game so that's to be expected). Sometimes there's a white background, sometimes it's orange.

I have actually tried this on Whale Bay, the Keg right before the second section, but you have to actually have triggered a Keg and lit it on fire for the glitch to work. So there is there is one more level to try: The Echoing Caves. It's worth a shot.
