Play things like ocarinas / drink milk from them

Exciting-ness scale: 7 out of 10
Does it work? --> Confirmed. It works.

Equip a bottle with a fish or bugs and any other item. Now, push the bottle button to release the fish or bugs and then pick them back up with the bottle. Link should now be visibly holding the bottle out in his hand. Now, find a ledge, and jump off of it. While in the air, press the C-button for the bottle, then the button for the other item. When landing, various things will happen depending on what you equipped:

1. Link plays the item as if it were an Ocarina. It works with items such as your Sword, bombs, and your bow.
2. Link takes a swig of milk. It happens with some event items and other bottles. You won't get life, though.
3. Link takes a swig of milk. You won't get life, though. Your item turns into a bottle, which may be filled with milk. Happens with the Lens of Truth and others.
4. Nothing happens.

You can make several interesting glitches off of this one, such as the Lose your sword (all versions) glitch.

Lose your sword (early versions)

This only works for earlier versions of the game, such as the gold cartridge. Go to Ganondorf and fight him until he hits your sword out of your hands. Now, save and quit the game. Open the game up again and you should be without your sword. You can leave and go anywhere without your sword, which leads to many interesting side effects... experiment!

Play the game all the way until you reach the final battle with Ganon. After you lose your Master Sword, perform the play things like ocarinas glitch to play an Ocarina (you usually aren't able to). Play the Sun's Song, and the battle will reset to after the destruction of the castle. Go forward and start the battle, losing your Master Sword AGAIN. Now do the above glitch once more, but play a warp song. Now you can save your game, and the Master Sword will stay unequipped. Then, you can wander around and discover the interesting side effects that occur without your sword.

Flying tektite

Does it work? --> Unconfirmed. We'll check soon.

To do this, you must be adult Link and have the hookshot/longshot and the megaton hammer. Go to Lake Hylia and have the megaton hammer and hookshot (or longshot) equipped. Try to lure a tektite (the blue spider thingies) to the water's edge. Use the megaton hammer next to the tektite (don't hit it directly) to make a shockwave and knock it back into the water. This is VERY important, because it will not work if the tektite is not on its back in the water. Then, stun it by shooting it with the hookshot. Go into first-person perspective for the best view. Once it becomes unstunned, it will jump up and flip over, but for some reason instead of falling to the ground after its flip, it will keep flying upwards.

As a kid Link, go to the drawbridge leading to the market. Walk up the chains and play the Sun's song. When the draw bridge is up, you can walk across the narrow beam for 60 rupees and if you jump down the the market place, you will fall through the floor. You end up appearing in the marketplace.
