Link never went on to experience another grand adventure after vanquishing Ganondorf at the end of Ocarina Of Time. In fact, he never went on to do anything - he was dead throughout the entirety of Majora's Mask, and the world of Termina is actually just a state of limbo or purgatory conjured up by his mind as a means to ultimately reach acceptance of his death.

Now, that on its own isn't a particularly convincing theory, but when you consider that many fans have connected each of the game's areas to one of the five stages of grief, it actually starts to hold water.

The video below pretty much explains everything you could possibly need to know about the theory - good luck finding any holes in its logic.
