Unprecedented Trampoline Mishap Claims Zelda Player's Life: A Shocking Turn of Events

A player of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom recently experienced a peculiar death on a trampoline. They helplessly watched as Link was thrown higher and higher until his demise. Hilarious deaths are common in Tears of the Kingdom, but this particular incident is particularly noteworthy.

Released in May, the new Zelda game has been a resounding success this year. While the franchise has always been beloved by Nintendo fans, it never reached the sales numbers of titles like Mario or Pokemon until Breath of the Wild came out. With its new open-world formula, Zelda has the potential to rival Pokemon in terms of financial success. In just a week, the game sold over 10 million copies, and the excitement surrounding it shows no signs of diminishing.

Recently, a Tears of the Kingdom player known as Space_Dweeb shared a amusing clip showcasing Link's peculiar demise on a trampoline. The video captures the hero leaping onto a platform suspended in a flying ruin, only to become paralyzed mid-fall and come to a complete halt. Subsequently, the trampoline proceeds to repeatedly propel the character into the air, causing minor damage to Link's health after each bounce. Space_Dweeb humorously comments on Link "breaking his back," although the issue is likely attributed to a peculiar interaction between the physics of the game and the character.

Within the Reddit post's comment section, the majority of gamers found the scene uproarious, finding further hilarity in the fact that Tulin, a companion of Link's from Rito Village, observed the entire mishap without offering any assistance. Given Tulin's presence, it would have been logical for the flying character to provide aid.

Nintendo is making efforts to address the physics interaction in the video that resulted in Link's death, although it is uncertain how much of it was unintentional. Despite this, some players are becoming increasingly frustrated with the updates, as they fix glitches that were beneficial to the gaming experience. One notable example is the fix for the frozen meat glitch, which enabled players to earn money and gather resources efficiently. As a result, a growing number of players are opting to refrain from updating their games. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is currently accessible on the Switch platform.
