In Super Mario Bros., a glitch can be used to shrink Super Mario or Fire Mario’s hitbox to half its size while swimming. If you duck on the seafloor before starting to swim, only Mario’s lower half will be solid. This can make it easier to avoid enemies, as they can now pass through Mario’s head without damaging him.

In Super Mario 64, pressing C-Up before starting a slide will result in Mario assuming a glitched sliding state where his speed builds up indefinitely. This can be used to clip through walls and skip parts of the slides.
