Original: Glitches in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild can result in all sorts of fun. The latest one, which happened to Reddit user Eastonator12, involves a weapon.

You can see Eastonator12 taking down the final boss in Breath of the Wild with just one hit of the sword with the video below.
