While moving, quickly unequip and re-equip the weapon to move past the door. This allows you to skip the Colonel Campbell call, saving about 7 seconds. | ||

This story flag skip allows you to avoid the cutscene and codec at Meryl' | ||

+ | **Q: How does the girder glitch work?** | ||
+ | |||
+ | **A:** By placing Snake in a particular position next to the girder, the game thinks Snake is on the opposite side where he can walk when in reality he is not. This causes Snake to fall to the bottom, saving time. | ||
