**SPOILER - DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU HAVE NOT BEATEN THE FINAL COLOSSUS AND WANT TO FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF**

So I was watching my girlfriend play the final colossus, and she found a way to the top without using the bow. Normally, you'd stab his right hand once you arrived there to get him to hold still, then shoot his shoulder to bring his hand to that shoulder. Instead, she waited until his right hand was at peak hight then ran up his thumb and jumped right to the front platform on his chest - THREE TIMES! I was pretty impressed, and was wondering if anyone else has tried this?

You have an AWESOME girlfriend.

I've actually seen this trick on some game site, it's probably on Youtube too, but major props for finding it.

Just something I didn't think could be done, but was shown otherwise.

This guy does one better and gets to his chest from his LEFT hand.
Pretty rad.

Awesome? More like genuis.Was your girlfriend just playing cuz she asked or does she have the game?

I kind of got her addicted to it. She's almost done with time attack, now. Only four to go!

Wow that's cool.

Oh jesus.
Me and my friend today. We spent like 40 minutes fighting the last colossus, for the first time....Because we thought this was how you had to do it.
Man, I kept saying, it just seems too hard to be the way you have to do it. And we never stabbed his right hand.
No wonder it took so long!
So you stab his hand so he holds still, then shoot for the shoulder to get up on his shoulder? I thought that shoulder one was a bit useless, if you do it this way it is.

How very annoying.
