== Setup == The glitch must be performed using a [[large seed]], often colloquially referred to as a "nut", and does not work with standard [[Seed|seeds]]. Normally, large seeds only allow Mario to bounce on them while they're resting on solid ground. When a large seed enters a body of water, it is postulated that a [[wikipedia:Boolean_flag|flag]] is set that allows the seed to be bounced on regardless of whether it is grounded, which has the intention of allowing Mario to bounce on it as it is actively sinking in the water. If the seed is retrieved from the water while sinking (whether by Mario grabbing it or it despawning), the flag will be reset. However, on game versions 1.1.0 and earlier, the game fails to clear this flag if the seed is retrieved from the water while it is also in its grounded state. This means that allowing the seed to sink to the bottom of a body of water allows this flag to be "smuggled" out of the water. Once smuggled, this flag will persist until reloading the stage even if the seed despawns, unless the seed is later retrieved from water while not grounded. This setup is used to allow bouncing on the large seed in midair. Since the flag is not cleared when the seed despawns, it is possible to throw the seed into water and simply wait for it to respawn, if the water is not too deep. This is often used when setting up nut jumping in [[Bowser's Kingdom]].
