'''Simian Spring''' is a special ability used by [[Diddy Kong]] from a [[Cranky's Kong Pad|Diddy Pad]] in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. Diddy can learn this ability after buying a potion from [[Cranky's Lab]] in [[Frantic Factory]] for seven [[Banana Coin|Banana Bunch Coin]]s.
'''Simian Spring''' ('''''Leapus Largium''''') is [[Diddy Kong]]'s special pad ability in the game ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. Diddy learns this ability when he buys a potion from [[Cranky Kong]] at his [[Cranky's Lab|lab]] in [[Frantic Factory]]. When Diddy stands on a pad with his face on it, the player can press the {{button|n64|Z}} button to make him perform a high jump by springing off of the ground with his tail, which allows him to access areas that are difficult to reach. The potion that unlocks this move costs seven [[Banana Bunch Coin]]s, and it is the last potion to be received by Cranky. The scientific name of this ability is ''Leapus Largium'', a play on the words "Leap" and "Large".

The scientific name of Simian Spring is ''Leapus Largium'', a play on the words "Leap" and "Large".
The Simian Spring is one of three Cranky Kong moves that are not actually required to beat ''Donkey Kong 64'', as it is not required in [[Hideout Helm]] or Diddy's section of the final battle against [[King K. Rool]], nor is it required to rescue [[Tiny Kong]] or majorly advance in any level. The other two are [[Baboon Balloon]] and [[Strong Kong]], which must be purchased anyway so that the [[OrangStand Sprint]] and [[Gorilla Grab]] can be unlocked.
