What's the spinner for?

I remember there being a "trick" in sinistar where you get the sinistar down to just one piece, then on your last ship, fly past the sinistar, fire a bomb, then fly back into the sinistar and kill yourself before the bomb returns and destroys the last piece of the sinistar.

I don't remember what is supposed to happen but I know that I wasted a LOT of quarters in the arcade trying to make it happen.

I know there is (was?) a bug where if you had 1 life left and you got into sinistar's death grip and you were hit by a stray shot before sinistar 'eats' you, you actually lose 2 lives (one from the stray shot and one from him eating you).  Then you would end up with 255 lives due to the unsigned 8 bit number representing your lives, that translates into 255 lives instead of -1 life.  ;D
