Secret Exit

To be more specific, there are 2 guaranteed frames to clip through the sandbar. Because of the fickle nature of Mario's y-subpixel, there is a chance that one or both of the 2 frames before these 2 guaranteed frames won't kill Mario, but get the sandbar clip as well.
There's effectively a 1/8 chance only the 1st of the two early frames before the guaranteed frames clips through, a 1/8 chance only the 2nd frame before the guaranteed frames clips through, and a 1/16 chance that both can clip Mario through; in total, this gives a 3/16 (18.75%) chance that hitting the spin jump one or two frames early will still clip Mario through.
This phenomenon also leads to a paradox where one sandbar attempt can be successful, while another attempt that spin jumps later can have Mario die.
