any advice on finding exploits?

I'm speed running a few games and been trying ways to find exploits in them like wall clipping but haven't found any yet. I tried going to corners of a door, I tried doing random animations and other weird stuff. does anyone know of a way to find exploits or are they just randomly found by speedrunners?

most exploits are "accidents" as far as i know. with that i mean the guy/girl looking for exploits fucks around with the game so long until something buggy or unintentional happens. when this occurs he/she then tries to reproduce the results. some even look at the code of the game to see how it can be broken.

so yea it just takes time, understanding the game+whats going on and "luck".

Cronikeys, a well-known glitch-hunter who found a lot of tricks in the Banjo N64 games among other games, wrote a pastebin about how she finds glitches which I found quite helpful. http://pastebin.com/T3Hx3TSz
