Take a look at that. Yes I'm floating, and flipping a coin, on a ship.

and if you look closely towards the bottom..you can see the coin. I think thats another glitch cuz it did go all crazy.
Now, how to do it.
It's hard to explain, but on a War Galleon, maybe galleon too, i havent tried galleon yet, but,
go up the stairs til you get stopped by the hull, then run and jump and turn right as you do it. do not go in the caged area, just jump in front of it. I know it may sound confusing but it's not easy to explain.
Well, have fun trying it out
(and to prove im floating, look at those 2 other people. no, im not a giant!)
EDIT: Oh and make sure it ISNT on the side where the person is steering the ship.
