In this video about raising a bob-omb in TTC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYkyuTbFXeA&t, Pannen uses Instant Release and the Failsafe mechanic to get a bob-omb on the same level with the Pit and the Pendulums star. However, the bomb gets stuck in a spot with no walls nearby, meaning instant release can no longer be used. Using a pause-buffered hitstun and dropping the bomb is still an option, but getting hitstun in TTC is something to be desired. I used to think amps, bob-ombs and major fall damage were the only ways to accomplish this on this world, and none of these were practical. Yet recently, I realized that Heave Ho can also give Mario hitstun if he takes damage after being heaved, and that was a breakthrough. So I'm asking (cuz I don't know where else to do it), when Pannen got stuck at the end of this video, could he have let Heave Ho toss Mario toward the bob-omb, activate a pause-buffered hitstun, pick it up and drop it OoB? (As an additional note, to avoid the bomb-omb's radius as you go higher, I think pendulum manipulation may have to be used, then Mario can let the pendulum push him into the floor above.)
