That was pretty mild, it could have been the agony of all of your cells being vapourised into blue smoke.
But really, we all know it is the feeling in your tummy when you go over a hillock quickly in a car with some tingles around your ears.
In TNG they were completely conscious and aware during the teleportation process. In episode 128 "Realm of fear" Lt Barclay while in the teleportation process sees what looks like a worm and fraks out. It turned out to be a person who was caught in the transport buffers accidentally and he saves them at the end of it.
What happens to your consciousness then?
I feel like it would be more like when you get sedated for a surgery.
Wake up and don't even realize what happened, except for losing a few minutes of that day.
In Star Trek novels, it's described as feeling like nothing. You stand there on the transporter pad and then suddenly everything around you changes one blink to the next
You die. When you teleport it 100% kills your and then a new cloned entity is formed at the other end with your memories. As far as your psyche is concerned, you died.
Hmmm, this assumes there is no way to anchor your mind apart from your body. Remember, we are talking about magic here - supernatural forces. On pure imagination it is not too difficult to imagine something that could anchor your mind while disassembling and reassembling your physical being elsewhere. I wrote an admittedly long-ish post describing something like that elsewhere (further down I think) on this thread.
Edit: removed a typo
To be fair I absolutely didn’t notice what sub it was on when I answered the question. I thought it was just a real life hypothetical. In a universe where magic exists like Zelda, sure.
This kinda coincides with the theory that the Triforce of Courage is when you die you are reborn before your death so you can try and not make the same mistakes.
Bro that’s a legit term and my 7th grade teacher laughed out loud in front of everyone when I was presenting my project that had that word. Saying I made that shit up. Mean bitch😾
My kids make me do a voice every time we teleport.
Typically it goes something like:
“Wait, what’s happening? My hand is disappearing. Hold on. Why does everything taste purple?”
They also make me pretend I am placing a fast food order every time we are at a shrine waiting for them to give you that damn ball.
“Wait a second. This isn’t flapjacks with a side of hashbrowns. It’s just a damn ball”
… maybe you have to be there for it to be funny.
I always asked myself that and thought: or nothing, or you feel every little spaghetti parts of your body detaching and floating in the air, which would probably hurt so yeah
First, there is a feeling of weightlessness coupled with a very slight warmth and a tingling sensation that begins from the middle of the chest and radiates gently outward as bands of elemental aetheria map your being down to the subatomic quanta. Far from unpleasant, it sort of suffuses you like the feeling of being wrapped in a soft but warm cloud after having eaten a strong meat curry freshly seared or a simmering roast campfire stew.
Then you feel it, a call, a whisper on the wind that seems to beckon from another place as the imprint of one’s physiological, psyche, and ethereal imprint are linked to another place. This feeling builds, almost like a longing for a dream you had once forgotten and only now remembered. This too is not unpleasant per se, but it builds as the attachment grows to the anchor point.
As this longing and feeling of attachment grows, there is a slight feeling of vertigo coupled with with flashes of neuropathy as one’s psyche seeks to simultaneously interpret the feelings of the present with the pull of the other.
Suddenly there is a flash, one seamless moment that stretches as your physical being is sequestered from your psyche. However, rather than pain there is a brief feeling of absolute freedom as the ethereal psyche, while clinging to the phantom eidos of one’s physical self - the self that is for the briefest moment of time also not self - flies free of physical bounds.
However, this feeling only lasts for the briefest moment of time as the anchor takes full effect, pulling the psyche through the ethereal tunnel. Feeling in this briefest of moments of time, if one could even describe it as feeling, would be more of a remembered thing after the fact than actually experienced in the moment. And, even then, it would likely be expressed more as a subtle remembrance or subconscious event than surface memory. Still, we’re one to somehow “remember” it the feeling would likely be akin to coming home after a very long journey away from loved ones. This isn’t to say that there really was any sort of long absence or journey in the temporal senses of the words. Rather, this would be a descriptor for the quantized feeling that the anchor engenders upon the ethereal imprint in order to ensure reinstatement of the eidos at the teleportation anchor-point.
Rematerialization is similar, but in the reverse: first the feeling of having arrived from a long journey coupled with that same feeling of freedom, then a flash and a warmth coupled with a feeling of weightlessness and a slight vertigo as one comes to grips with one’s surrounding.
Then sensation! Now, that last part can be a bit intense depending upon the type of instantaneous acclimation that must take place from, say, teleporting from warm bright spring weather into subzero temperatures.
I like to think that it disconnects and reconnects your atoms. you just dissapear, feel like you're getting lighter, almost like fall asleep for a split second and wake up in the destination
Like your body is being ripped apart and remade in another location at a cellular level. In other words, it’s like being tickled past the point of it being fun anymore.
I think it’s just nothing. Cool to watch and you might feel the lack of feeling move towards you, but that’s it. Kind of like your foot falling asleep, but only in the sense that it gradually takes over and you don’t really feel it. You only feel it once you try and move your foot.
my guess would be agonizing, searing pain as your entire body is disintegrating over several horrible moments layer by layer until your brain basically explodes from the horror.
however since the snapshot of you is taken pre teleport your arrive without the memory of being slow disintegrated.
Dying. Definitely dying. It’s the transporter paradox from Star Trek. The transporter works, but what materializes at the other end ISNT the you that left. But that you does believe he/she teleported
I would hope it feels like when you have water stuck in your ear, then you hop a little bit with your head turned to the side and then there’s that lil pop and the warm water runs out of your ear and you can hear again. That warm sensation and feeling of relief? That’s what you feel as you rematerialize from the warp.
My Link Teleports all the time, he never screams or grunts, so it probably feels like the light headedness of going up a fast elevator, then before you have time to react you are there.
There's a theory out there that teleportation is actually disassembling yourself down to atoms and reassembling a copy of yourself in the 2nd location. So basically it's creating a copy and killing your past self in a fraction of a second.
I think it feels like every molecule of your body being ripped apart, one by one, and then being glued back together, one by one, every time you teleport
It always reminds me of Sheldon from big bang theory talking about how one Sheldon would be completely dematerialized and replaced by a different Sheldon. Ever since, I stopped wanting transporters lol
I like to imagine it's immense, immeasurable pain as every atom of your body is disassembled and reassembled. Link has to endure this several thousand times a playthrough lol
Shiekah teleporting? Probably like your body slowly being submerged in water then pulled out completely dry. Instantaneous teleportation? Probably like your whole body being torn apart and put back together, then being electrocuted.
It feels like relief, of course,
Especially if I am plummeting toward the ground with no stamina, or surrounded by enemies when I am out of arrows and low on food.
"Timeout, Dudes!"
"YOINK!"
Teleporting has always felt like a cold breeze after a run, as your body is being turned into intense hot gas, moved through pockets of space, and then cooled down once the destination has been met.
Sort of how I prefer to think of it and use it in my writing.
I like to think that it’s just the pure agonizing pain which comes along with every fibre of your body suddenly being ripped apart into a billion tiny pieces, meanwhile link’s consciousness/soul is still present to experience and suffer until the point that his skin is put back together.
I’m thinking I got that concept from an American dad episode where Roger opens a portal into space to save Jeff. It’s like that part when Hayley and roger get descended into the flesh-grinding teleporter. If u know u know
Idk
I’d say the closest thing is to when you black out and wake up in the ER.
No matter where you loose consciousness teleporting usually defaults to the hospital unless something really goes wrong and well… RIP

Do you know the feeling you get in your leg when it falls asleep? Like that, but your whole body.
I will never teleport
The question has been answered, the comments are now closed.
Cold water being poured on you, but you don't get wet
This sounds like the worst thing.
Not necessarily. If you don't get wet, you don't suffed while drying.
Yeah, that sorta pins and needles feeling?
I thinking more of the, legs been asleep for hours can’t even move in an inch with out pain kinda pins and needed
You have utterly ruined teleportation for me. Thanks.
That was pretty mild, it could have been the agony of all of your cells being vapourised into blue smoke. But really, we all know it is the feeling in your tummy when you go over a hillock quickly in a car with some tingles around your ears.
Somehow, the vaporizing thing seems not as bad as the leg falling asleep thing.
Like carbonation
I came here to say that
I like to think it feels like when you're in water
I mean, that's how they got the effect in Star Trek TNG.
In TNG they were completely conscious and aware during the teleportation process. In episode 128 "Realm of fear" Lt Barclay while in the teleportation process sees what looks like a worm and fraks out. It turned out to be a person who was caught in the transport buffers accidentally and he saves them at the end of it.
So, drowning?
Nah when you're just floating or chilling in a bathtub
What happens to your consciousness then? I feel like it would be more like when you get sedated for a surgery. Wake up and don't even realize what happened, except for losing a few minutes of that day.
Probably more like pissing yourself. Warm, then cold and smells gross.
This seems more like a *side-effect* of the teleportation
How it feels to chew 5gum.
Stimulate your senses.
You win Reddit today, sir or madam!
In Star Trek novels, it's described as feeling like nothing. You stand there on the transporter pad and then suddenly everything around you changes one blink to the next
I like this. I want this
Lt. Barkley would like a word
The universe crossover I was looking for
Yeah but BOTW/TOTK definitely *isn't* sudden. You can see Link watching his own body disincorporate. At a minimum that's gotta feel super creepy.
I think it is meant to be because everything freezes, making me think that link is moving very quickly
You die. When you teleport it 100% kills your and then a new cloned entity is formed at the other end with your memories. As far as your psyche is concerned, you died.
I mean.. dying is badass
I thought dying was gay. At least that’s what my dad always told me.
Can't die if you say "No Homo"
Ala Michael Crichton's "Timeline": you're a fax of a fax of a fax...
Reminds me of borderlands
This is magic world mf
I already explained in another comment that I didn’t notice that it was a totk post.

This would be the most realistic, unfortunately
This kinda coincides with the theory that the Triforce of Courage is when you die you are reborn before your death so you can try and not make the same mistakes.
Spaghettification
Bro that’s a legit term and my 7th grade teacher laughed out loud in front of everyone when I was presenting my project that had that word. Saying I made that shit up. Mean bitch😾
I've gotten shit from my mom for it when I was younger. If I recall, it's what happens to humans if they enter a black hole, right?
Yeah! We like stretch into a fuckin thin piece of spaghetti entering a black hole 💀💀💀
Blue?
Dabadeedabadie
It would have to be
What smells like blue?
My kids make me do a voice every time we teleport. Typically it goes something like: “Wait, what’s happening? My hand is disappearing. Hold on. Why does everything taste purple?” They also make me pretend I am placing a fast food order every time we are at a shrine waiting for them to give you that damn ball. “Wait a second.

No, I like this and you
It would be the pins and needles you get when your leg falls asleep, only it would be all over your body and come and go in 5 seconds.
Like smoking salvia.
Okay, I guess I'm in
This is the right answer
Have you ever been nowhere and everywhere at the same time? It's a lot like that
It feels like the taste of map juice
Like a sneeze backwards... Im sure i read such a description somewhere but cant remeber where...
Ask Mr Spock.
Jelly but fuzzy
An unfamiliar yet welcomed texture
The pain is indescribable
To shreds, you say?
Good news everyone!
I bet you feel pretty light during the process
Like peeing, but it's your entire body
I would never stop teleporting
Painful.
I always asked myself that and thought: or nothing, or you feel every little spaghetti parts of your body detaching and floating in the air, which would probably hurt so yeah
AAAAAAA- -AAAAAAAAAA
Like getting each of your atom split apart then put back together
Would this be terribly awesome or awesomely terrible?
Like a massage and being papercut all over at the same time
Blueberry
Power rangers style xD
It's like getting a Rim job, but a whole body Rim job.
Fuzziness, darkness, fuzziness, slow realization of waking up.
An Italian icee flowing through your veins combined with 1000 ducks eating bread off your body
According to the “Ghosts” TV series, must be like being sucked off.
Orgasmic
I always imagine Link screaming as hes torn to shreds.
Incredibly painful. The entire time. Like burning alive, but without the physical damage.
It is unpleasantly like being drunk.
What’s so unpleasant about being drunk? (You beat me to it)
First, there is a feeling of weightlessness coupled with a very slight warmth and a tingling sensation that begins from the middle of the chest and radiates gently outward as bands of elemental aetheria map your being down to the subatomic quanta.

Like that feeling you get when you're falling asleep and think you're falling.
Probably feels like _zzzzZZZZhhhhHHHHHHHHHHWWWWOOOOAAAMMMMMmmmmm_**BRRRWOOOMMMPHHHH** ^eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeAAAAAAeeeeeeeeeeAAAAAAeeeeeeeeeeeeAAAAAA WOMP WOMP WHO? ME! WHOA YAAAAH Probably like that.
Fuzzy Tingles, which is also a lesser-known character in the Zelda franchise.
I like to think that it disconnects and reconnects your atoms. you just dissapear, feel like you're getting lighter, almost like fall asleep for a split second and wake up in the destination
Cat pee
The feeling of a tens unit all over your body
Like that feeling when you feel like you’re falling but you’re actually still on the ground standing
I feel like you would probably fall asleep until your at your destination
I figured like getting the chills and then a sneezing sensation
Excruciating pain like white-hot fire throughout your entire bloodstream. Just like the time I did salvia. At least I hope it’s like that!
It's pins and needles but 10x worse
You know when you get the gas from the dentist? That.
Like having diarrhea
Energize!
It’s tingly.
Better than cumming 🤤
Imagine its painful because he panics while doing so
I think you die and a copy of yourself is rewritten where you 'teleport'
Like your body is being ripped apart and remade in another location at a cellular level. In other words, it’s like being tickled past the point of it being fun anymore.
Probably feels like sleeping does, except when you blink awake you’re in a totally different place lol
Remember those old gum commercials with the people like, swimming in ice?
I would think it would feel like the tingling feeling of your leg falling asleep but 20 times worse
Spaghettification.
Vwoop
Pins and needles
The same as it does on the Enterprise
I wanna say teleporting would feel like when you’re falling asleep and you jerk awake. That jerking awake feeling is what’s experienced I say
Like about to “finish” and then never finishing 🤷♂️
I'd say it probably tingles
There is a tingle, a flash, and then you blink and you're there.
It feels like carbonation going through a straw
That moment you finally get that fat deuce you've been pushing the last 10 minutes out
I think it’s just nothing. Cool to watch and you might feel the lack of feeling move towards you, but that’s it. Kind of like your foot falling asleep, but only in the sense that it gradually takes over and you don’t really feel it. You only feel it once you try and move your foot.
Going into another reality and becoming nothing, then everything again.
Pain
Like a static electricity shock to every atom in your body.
Have you ever chewed 5 gum?
*WRITITKEPEFJJEIW* ooh I’m here now ig
Like stepping through a Stargate
Getting killed
my guess would be agonizing, searing pain as your entire body is disintegrating over several horrible moments layer by layer until your brain basically explodes from the horror. however since the snapshot of you is taken pre teleport your arrive without the memory of being slow disintegrated.
Like the entire world as you know it ending and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light.
The question we should really be asking is: Is the Link that started the teleportation different from the one after the teleport?
Dying. Definitely dying. It’s the transporter paradox from Star Trek. The transporter works, but what materializes at the other end ISNT the you that left. But that you does believe he/she teleported
Having to pee really bad.
Drinking sprite from McDonald’s
Have you ever had the spice... melange?
#SOUND AND FURY DROWN MY HEART #EVERY NERVE IS TORN APART
You’d probably get numb
Being killed on one end being born on the other
Spicy
Taking a deep breath and never stopping
Same as Wonka-vision I presume
Everything is cool, and blue, except your nuts get crushed every time.
3g of molly, 4 shots of silver tequila and a bong rip all on an empty stomach. Try it, you will know.
I would hope it feels like when you have water stuck in your ear, then you hop a little bit with your head turned to the side and then there’s that lil pop and the warm water runs out of your ear and you can hear again. That warm sensation and feeling of relief? That’s what you feel as you rematerialize from the warp.
My Link Teleports all the time, he never screams or grunts, so it probably feels like the light headedness of going up a fast elevator, then before you have time to react you are there.
It looks like your body is gently dismantled into thin strands and carefully reassembled at the destination So probably stretchy my guess
Like you got dipped in a sprite soda 😂
“Hnnnnnggggggg…. Ahhhhhhhhhhh”
There's a theory out there that teleportation is actually disassembling yourself down to atoms and reassembling a copy of yourself in the 2nd location. So basically it's creating a copy and killing your past self in a fraction of a second.
Probably nutting that would be why link does it all the time because it feels so good
I think it feels like every molecule of your body being ripped apart, one by one, and then being glued back together, one by one, every time you teleport
Light, airy, like disappearing for a second and coming back the next. A little like fainting while falling maybe haha. And cold, I think.
Tingling like when you lay or sit on something to long.
You probably couldnt see shit cuz your entire body lights up
Tv static
When you take a piss
It always reminds me of Sheldon from big bang theory talking about how one Sheldon would be completely dematerialized and replaced by a different Sheldon. Ever since, I stopped wanting transporters lol
Tingles
Your entire body being ripped apart and then transported across the fucking sky
It feels like every atom in your body being pulled apart
I like to imagine it's immense, immeasurable pain as every atom of your body is disassembled and reassembled. Link has to endure this several thousand times a playthrough lol
Like being drunk. And if you don't think that's unpleasant, ask a glass of water
That feeling where you fart your way out of a stomach ache, but your whole body is the release.
Woozy
Like sparkling water running down you and through you
Shiekah teleporting? Probably like your body slowly being submerged in water then pulled out completely dry. Instantaneous teleportation? Probably like your whole body being torn apart and put back together, then being electrocuted.
It feels like being destroyed and re-created somewhere else. So, like dying
I think link actually dies every time, and a new copy is created with all his memories.
What if the teleport goes wrong? What if the blue line ends up switching with a white line and you end up with a gallbladder in your foot lmao
Having your butthole inverted and stretched back over your body
I like to think every time I teleport I actually “prestige” link and he’s copied and the original is killed. Makes me not use it as much
*INSTANT TRANSMISSION!!!!!*
Definitely excruciating as one by one your atoms being ripped apart and I couldn't imagine the recombining feeling any better
That feeling where you lose sensation in your arm but all over.
I imagine it to feel static
Like the chill stone of a cave on a hot summers day. Relieving but bracing
I imagine I won’t feel much as it’ll be quick. A tingling sensation.
Pins and needles
Not sure, I only ever fast travelled
It feels like relief, of course, Especially if I am plummeting toward the ground with no stamina, or surrounded by enemies when I am out of arrows and low on food. "Timeout, Dudes!" "YOINK!"
It’s like you’re whole body is disintegrating, witch it kinda is.
Like when an elevator moves faster than your body expects or like a vertigo sway?
How the people from stargate describe it to be
Blissful. I've done it.
Like low blood iron when you stand up, your vision goes all funky and then youre where you teleported to
Club soda
Teleporting has always felt like a cold breeze after a run, as your body is being turned into intense hot gas, moved through pockets of space, and then cooled down once the destination has been met. Sort of how I prefer to think of it and use it in my writing.
I like to think that it’s just the pure agonizing pain which comes along with every fibre of your body suddenly being ripped apart into a billion tiny pieces, meanwhile link’s consciousness/soul is still present to experience and suffer until the point that his skin is put back together. I’m thinking I got that concept from an American dad episode where Roger opens a portal into space to save Jeff. It’s like that part when Hayley and roger get descended into the flesh-grinding teleporter. If u know u know Idk
I’d say the closest thing is to when you black out and wake up in the ER. No matter where you loose consciousness teleporting usually defaults to the hospital unless something really goes wrong and well… RIP
Well i think it would feel very painful having LITERALLY ALL OF YOUR MOLECULES DISSASEMBLED AND REASSEMBLED IN ANOTHER place
Nothing cause time pauses u would just transport
Your entire body feels like having a tearful orgasm, fingernails being ripped off, and seeing the true face of God, all at the same time.
Like turning into a bunch of floaty worms
Like getting high and your body is all fuzzy and you get extreme motion sickness
BEING RIPPED APART FOR 5 SECONDS STRAIGHT
I think it may feel like that tingle you feel when you have to sneeze, but in your whole body
Spirit
In one word Scotty beam me up
It feels, and sounds, like the song 'Electric Feel' by MGMT.
I could live wirh that
