Description
I came across this glitch completely by accident. These "orbs" don't do anything to you or your game and you can walk straight through them with no effect. If you have a slow computer or one that can't handle a lot of moving entities/animations, don't spawn too many. They'll slow down your framerate quite a bit. Other than that, these things just look cool!
Step One
Find a door.



Pick a door, any door

(except this kind)

They can be locked


or unlocked.


Step Two
Aim and Fire!



Look at any part of the door. It doesn't have to be right on an edge of it or anything like that. Now, all you have to do is fire!






Results

You can even jump and duck to get them at different heights.


However, you can't be too close to the door or else it won't work. Shooting it at close range will just make the portals act like they normally would on non-portalable walls.

You can shoot from far away though:

Extras!
A thank you to Yxquillio!

This also works on rails! Aim at one of the bars and it should create even more orbs!
Thank you for viewing!
Have fun!

If you have any questions or comments, feel free to ask.

Have something to add? Just tell me!

I got this in the walkway to GLaDOS's lair. I looks so awesome.:steamhappy:
I got it on accident and was thinking about making a guide. Well, not now.
