Mechanics

• Regrabs:
• A platforming mechanic to maximize Mario's jump distance while minimizing his jump height.
• Performed by releasing & re-pressing ('re-grabbing') a jump button just before the peak of Mario's jump.

Steps

1. Jump as close to the edge of the ledge as possible.
• Regular jump (B) is possible but spin jump (A) is easier.
2. Jump as high as you can without touching the munchers
• Let go of the jump button control how high Mario jumps.
3. Immediately press and hold the jump button ('regrab' it) to fall slower and reach the door.

Mechanics

• Momentum control.
• Regrabs: Explained in 1-1.

Steps

1. Jump around the noteblock, land on the top-right edge of the noteblock.
• Do not hold the jump button while bouncing on the noteblock or you will go too high.
2. 'Regrab' to reach the platform under the pipe.

Mechanics

• 'Two-Frame' Jumps:
• These are very small jumps (~2 tiles high) that require the player to hold the spin-jump button down for less than 3 'frames'.
• The game usually runs at about 60 frames-per-second.
• Holding the button down for 3 or more frames will cause Mario to jump too high and die to the ceiling munchers.

Steps

1. Come to a complete stop next to the muncher.
2. Press the spin-jump button and immediately let go.
3. Hold right to make it over the muncher.
4. Repeat.

Mechanics

• P-Speed Build-up:
• Mario can build up P-speed using a small amount of ground by running back-and-forth (and sometimes spin-jumping off the edge).
• Note: Mario can build p-speed on fewer tiles than this level provides, but it takes longer and isn't as fun.
• P-Speed Preservation:
• Mario can maintain P-speed when running into walls (or the screen edge) by jumping before running into the obstacle.

Steps

1. Run back-and-forth on the starting ledge until Mario gains P-speed.
2. Jump to the far-right ledge,
3. Jump as soon as possible before hitting the side of the screen,
4. Swing left and jump off the "nub" under the door to reach the door.

Mechanics

• Falling Gray Platforms:
• Mario usually gets 'kicked' off of falling gray platforms once they start to fall down faster than Mario.
• Mario can still jump off of these gray platforms if he walks off the platform and then walks back onto it.

Steps

1. Run across and off the falling gray platform
2. Get back on the platform near the bottom of the screen.
3. As soon as Mario touches the platform, jump off to reach the door.
• Tip: If you are falling too fast, press and hold the jump button while falling to fall slower.

Mechanics

• Falling Wigglers:
• Falling wigglers have strange hitboxes that do not match the graphics shown.
• When Wigglers are near the top of the screen, Mario can bounce on them by falling into a pit underneath.
• Falling Wigglers will briefly freeze in mid-air when bounced upon.
• Mario can bounce on the pieces of the 'frozen' wiggler to climb higher.

Steps

1. Jump to the brown blocks to start the block snake.
2. Wait until the Wiggler is about to fall, then run off into the pit right below the wiggler.
3. If done correctly:
1. Mario will bounce off the Wiggler (off-screen),
2. The Wiggler will pause in the air momentairly,
3. Mario will be able to bounce on all parts of the Wiggler.
4. Use these bounces to activate the invisible (dotted) coin block and so that Mario can enter the door.

Mechanics

• Banzai Bill Regains Hitbox Off-Screen:
• Mario can bounce twice off of a Banzai Bill; this only works if the second bounce is below the bottom of the screen.
• ThirdWall popularized this mechanic in his Romhack Race level 'Double Bop Drop' (Week 27).

Steps

1. Jump on top of the Banzai Bill. Do not let go of the jump button.
2. Continue holding jump as Mario falls above the Banzai Bill.
3. Shortly after the Banzai Bill and Mario go off-screen, Mario will bounce off the Banzai Bill again.
4. Hold right to make it to the door.

Mechanics

• Chuck Gate:
• Mario can run underneath a Clappin' Chuck while it jumps into the air.

Steps

1. Jump to make the Clappin' Chucks jump.
• Tip: Jump when the Chucks' hands are on the ground.
2. Run under both Chucks to the orb.

Mechanics

• Side-of-Screen Clip:
• Mario can clip between the side of the screen and a wall that is 1-tile from the screen by jumping into the corner.
• Pipe Clip:
• Mario can enter a blocked-off horizontal pipe by clipping into the pipe from below.

Steps

1. Get the key
1. Run and jump up at an angle into the 1-tile gap on the left side of the screen to grab the key.
• This is not a consistent trick.
• You may need to attempt the clip many, many times before succeeding.
2. Clip into the pipe
1. Stand at the top of the highest slope, facing left and holding the key.
2. Drop the key, then immediately hold left and repeatedly press the jump button.
• When done correctly, Mario will jump on top of the key, and the key will push Mario up into the pipe.

Mechanics

• Expanding Bridge Clips:
• Mario can clip through tiles using expanding bridge blocks ('accordion blocks') in lots of ways.

Steps

1. First clip is free.
2. Second clip requires standing against the right side of the wall. Standing in the middle/left will kill Mario.
3. Third clip requires jumping into the expanding bridge blocks coming out of the ceiling. This teleports Mario to the top of the bridge blocks.
• Note: If you wall-clip before teleporting, the screen will scroll up and teleporting will be impossible.
4. Fourth clip requires standing against the right side of the pipe.

Mechanics

• Green Beans Clips:
• The consistent and oft-loved Green Beans can help Mario to clip through tiles in lots of different ways.
• Plantaporting
• Mario can teleport ('Plantaport') from the bottom of the screen to the top if there are Green Beans directly above him.
• Screen-Wrapped Beans:
• Green Beans sticking out of the left side of the screen can be bounced on from the right side of the screen, even though the beans are not visible on the right side of the screen.
• This makes the beans appear to 'screen-wrap' to the other side of the screen.

Steps

1. Don't move left or right at the start of the level; just jump straight up to start clipping.
• Being off-center will cause Mario to die while clipping.
2. Fall into the pit.
3. Mario can clip down through tiles if a Green Bean is inside of the tiles. So do that.
4. Jump over the row of munchers to the screen-wrapped Green Bean.
5. Control-jump over the muncher.
6. Stand above the door to clip down.
7. Enter the door: You have to press up on the D-pad when you first touch the bean. Or just spam it.

Mechanics

• Sliding in 1-tile space:
• Big mario will always move left (or down) while standing in a 1-tile space. Mario can also jump up out of a 1 tile space.
• Spin-clip:
• Big Mario can clip down through tiles in a 1-tile high space by spin-jumping.

Steps

1. Press jump, down, or spin-jump as needed to get to the door.

Mechanics

• Spinning Platform Clip:
• Mario can clip through solid tiles while standing on a spinning platform, as long as the platform is moving fast enough.

Steps

1. Stand on the left side of spinning platform. Avoid munchers if necessary.
2. Clip through the 2 rows of cement blocks. This is literally free.
3. Enter the door (tap up) when the platform moves Mario in front of the door.

Mechanics

• Wall-running clip with Moving Platform:
• Mario can clip through just about anything when running up the side of a wall while a platform is moving up... I honestly don't even know.

Steps

1. Run up the side of the wall as the platform is moving up to clip through munchers.
• Mario should get 'caught' on the platform and run up the wall slower than usual.
2. Grab shell and stand on the edge of platform.
3. Jump and throw shell above munchers so it hits the yellow turnblock.
• Tip: Do not throw the shell while Mario has horizontal momentum; this will cause the shell to go too fast/slow and miss the turn block
4. Run up side of wall, clip through the munchers again (to the left this time), and fall into the 1-tile gap.
• Tip: Don't hold jump during this and it will line up perfectly.

Mechanics

• Cloud-clip:
• Big Mario can clip through walls if he ducks in the cloud while moving up near the ceiling.
• Note: Mario can also clip through walls using clouds by jumping into a cloud with horizontal momentum near the wall.

Steps

• Ducking into the ceiling (shown in video)
1. Jump up towards the Cloud to get in the cloud.
2. Move Mario up towards the ceiling.
3. While moving up, press the down button to make Mario duck in the cloud.
4. Repeat until Mario is directly under the ceiling while ducking.
5. When you let go of duck, Mario will automatically start moving left; this means Mario has clipped into the ceiling.
6. Let it ride.
7. Take damage then enter the door.
• Alternate method: Jumping to get momentum
1. Jump up towards the Cloud to get in the cloud.
2. Hold run & left, then jump so Mario bonks the 2 cement blocks and lands in the cloud right before hitting the moley wall.
• Keep holding jump and left even after getting in the cloud.
3. If done correctly, Mario's momentum will transfer into the cloud, and he will clip through the wall.

Mechanics

• Wall-clip:
• Mario can clip into walls!
• If Mario clips into a note block, Mario will automatically bounce off the noteblock.

Steps

1. Jump towards the wall with full momentum (regular jump or spin jump works).
• Aim so that Mario's feet 'land' on the top-left edge of a note block (either note block will work).
2. Clip into the wall.
• Mario is not guaranteed to clip into the wall even if you line it up perfectly,
• There are other factors (e.g. 'subpixels') that decide if Mario will clip into the wall or not.
• The player has very little control over these factors, so persistence is key. You can do it!

Mechanics

• Baby Yoshi Double-Eat:
• Normally, Baby Yoshi needs to eat 5 items in order to turn into Big Yoshi.
• But eating 2 items within a short time window will trick the game into thinking Yoshi has eaten 3 items.
• Doing this trick twice in a row means you can transform Baby Yoshi into Big Yoshi by eating only 3 things.

Steps

1. Throw the throwblocks at Baby Yoshi at a medium pace. Get on Big Yoshi.
2. Dismount Big Yoshi to reach the door.
• Note: The dismount is not as tight if you run off the edge while holding the jump button (B).

Mechanics

• Solid Coins:
• Hitting a question/turn block that is underneath a coin will turn the coin into a solid, invisible block.
• Yoshi Eating Powerups:
• Mario will collect a powerup that Yoshi eats, even if Mario is not riding Yoshi.

Steps

1. Jump and dismount to hit the question block.
2. Get back on Yoshi
• Tip: Let go of the jump button to fall faster.
3. Press the tongue button (X or Y) to start the tongue action, then dismount Yoshi (A).
• If done correctly, Yoshi will eat the powerup as he falls, and Mario will become Big Mario.
4. Damage boost to the door.

Mechanics

• Yoshi Powerup Dupe:
• If Mario touches a powerup while Yoshi is eating it (tongue is still out), Mario will receive the same powerup twice.

Steps

1. You need to press 3 inputs at basically the same time:
• Turn around (press right).
• Tongue with Yoshi (press X).
• Dismount Yoshi (press A).
2. Mario must collect the fireflower while Yoshi's tongue is still sticking out, holding the powerup.
• When done correctly, Mario will collect 2 fireflower powerups, with 1 going in his inventory.
3. Damage boost on the munchers, duck where the falling fireflower will be, and spin-clip to the door.

Mechanics

• Eat-Cancelling:
• 'Eat-cancelling' is when Yoshi takes damage while an item is on his tongue.
• Items that have been 'eat-cancelled' will have strange properties:
• Kicked keys will 'stick' inside of walls.
• Uptossing a key against a wall will make the key 'stick' inside of the wall, but the key will also slowly fall down.
• Kicked shells will fall through the floor.
• Grab jump:
• Mario can grab a key while jumping off of it.
• Performed by pressing the jump button and the grab button on the same frame.

Steps

1. First, jump towards the key with Yoshi
2. Press the tongue button (X or Y) before dismounting Yoshi (A) into the lava.
• If done correctly, Yoshi will hold the key on his tongue while sinking into the lava.
3. Land on top of the key at the end of Yoshi's tongue.
4. Wait until Yoshi is about to despawn (takes about a second).
5. Before Yoshi despawns, do a key jump (jump and grab at the same time).
6. As Mario jumps upward, kick the key upward into the cement.
• If done correctly, the key will stick into the wall and Mario can stand on it to enter the door.
• If the key snaps back onto Yoshi's tongue, you did not wait long enough.
• If the key falls before you jump, you waited too long.
• Note: Uptossing causes the key to slowly fall down while inside the wall; this strategy is safer as it allows multiple attempts to enter the door.

Mechanics

• Fish Generator:
• A fish will appear if Yoshi eats a stomped P-switch and immediately drops it.

Steps

1. Get P-switch using Yoshi's tongue.
2. Set the P-switch down on the ground near the water.
3. Jump on the P-switch.
4. Immediately eat the jumped-on P-switch with Yoshi before it disappears.
• You want Yoshi to eat the smoke puff left behind by the P-switch
5. Immediately down-spit the P-switch close to the water.
• Down-spit means drop: Hold the down direction as you press the tongue/spit button (Y or X)
• If done correctly, Yoshi will spit out the P-switch... and a fish!
• You have eat the P-switch quickly, and down-spit quickly!
• The fish may eventually bounce into the water. You can create as many fish as you want, but 1 will suffice.

Get Hurt, Destroy Life

1. Jump into the water where the fish is, under the rope.
2. Hold the jump button and face left while the fish hurts Mario. Yoshi will start running left.
3. Land on the rope ('cause you held jump) and run to the right as Yoshi runs underneath.
4. Fall down onto Yoshi, swim up out of the water, and dismount to get to the door.

Mechanics

• If two Yoshis spawn during the same time, the first Yoshi to spawn will become invisible.
• If Mario mounts the invisible Yoshi, the mounting animation and sound will play, but Mario will still appear to walk normally.
• If Mario 'dismounts' the invisible Yoshi (by pressing A), Mario's Y-position will 'teleport' to the Y-position of the invisible Yoshi.

Steps

1. Shelljump so the shell hits the lower question block, and Mario bounces off the shell to hit the upper question block with his head.
• You have to hit the question blocks quickly!
• If done correctly, an 'invisible Yoshi' will hatch on top of the lower question block, where Mario lands.
2. Mount the invisible Yoshi by jumping onto him. He's on the question block, I promise.
3. Jump back to where you started (jump with B, not A -- don't dismount!) so you are underneath the door.
4. 'Dismount' (A) to teleport up to the door.
• Note that the invisible Yoshi location (above the lower question block) is on the same y-coordinate as the door.

Mechanics

• If Mario is riding an invisible Yoshi while the visible yoshi despawns, the invisible Yoshi will appear under Mario (already mounted).
• If Mario is standing on a surface when the invisible Yoshi appears under him, Marioshi will clip down 1 tile.

Steps

1. Hit both question blocks quickly so 2 Yoshis hatch.
2. Mount the first Yoshi that hatches -- quickly, before the second Yoshi has hatched.
• If done correctly, Mario will appear to always be 'riding' an invisible Yoshi. It's very silly
• If you don't mount fast enough, you can still perform the clip: Just mount both Yoshis ('mount' the invisible Yoshi first, then mount the visible Yoshi).
3. Take damage from the Lotus Flower fire; this causes the visible Yoshi to take damage and run away.
• Note: At this point, the game still thinks Mario is mounted on the invisible Yoshi.
4. Stand on the ground as the visible Yoshi runs into lava and despawns.
• When the visible Yoshi despawns, the invisible Yoshi becomes visible and appears underneath Mario.
• This action causes Mario to be 1 tile lower, which will clip Mario down to where the orb is.
5. ???
6. Touch orb.

Mechanics

• Baby Yoshi Double-Eat: Explained in 3-1.
• Yoshi Corner Clip:
• Mario can clip through corner tiles while on Yoshi by mounting Yoshi while Yoshi is touching the corner.
• Being underwater makes this clip much easier.

Steps

1. Feed baby Yoshi the 3 fish.
• Tip: Neutral the D-pad for the first 2 fish, hold the right direction before the 3rd fish to ensure Mario is away from the munchers when Baby Yoshi turns big.
2. Mount Yoshi and stand in the corner where the bones almost touch.
3. Dismount Yoshi (A) while holding down-right on the D-pad
• This causes Mario to swim very low, and to move to the right.
• This is not consistent; it may require multiple attempts.
4. If done correctly, Mario will mount Yoshi while Yoshi is inside of the bone.
5. Keep holding right and Marioshi will both fall through the bones.

Mechanics

• Side-of-Screen Clip:Explained in 2-1.
• Precise Item Swimming.

Steps

1. Hold up while swimming to clip between the cement block and the screen edge. Grab the key.
2. Hold down to slide on the floor next to the Sparkies. Move down-right when there is a gap between the Sparkies.
3. Carefully tap down to avoid swimming into either of the Sparkies. Also move left/right to avoid the death blocks.
4. Once you are at the door, let go of the grab button -- do not kick/throw as the key might get stuck in the wall.

Mechanic

• Slope Clip:
• Mario can clip through slopes while moving upward. It's tricky and usually requires multiple attempts.
• Slope clipping is easier in water because Mario can spam jump to get many attempts quickly.
• Turnblock Clip
• Mario can clip to the left using a turnblock while swimming and carrying an item.
• Just wait for turnblock to stop spinning, and Mario will clip automatically.

Steps

1. Get the shell.
• Hold down-right direction and spam the jump button(s).
• Mario will swim against the slope and slowly move up-right.
• Eventually Mario will clip through the slope, allowing you to pick up the shell.
• You can't spam the swim buttons too fast, but you can spam the buttons for too long.
• Mario can clip back on top of the slope if you keep swimming after clipping
2. Get back: Swim through the lower-left corner where the slope meets the ground.
3. Hit the turnblock with the shell to make it start spinning.
4. Stop the shell by bouncing on it.
5. Pick up the shell and swim inside of the spinning turnblock, holding the shell.
6. Hold left and when the turnblock stops spinning, Mario will clip to the left through the solid cement tiles.
7. Kill the fish with the shell and enter the door.

Mechanics

• Ghosthouse Holes:
• Mario can swim inside of Ghosthouse holes. Careful to avoid the edges; these cause Mario to clip into the side.
• Big Mario Clip:
• Falling down onto the bottom of a Ghosthouse hole will cause Mario to clip into the tiles below.
• If Mario is Big Mario, he will clip downward very quickly.

Steps

1. Swim inside of the Ghosthouse hole to get the mushroom.
2. Aim to touch the bottom of the Ghosthouse hole while it is above the door.
3. If done correctly, Mario will clip down to the door. Be sure to avoid the lava on both sides.

Mechanics

• Side-of-Screen Clip:Explained in 2-1.
• Turnblock Clip Down:
• Jumping while inside of a turnblock as the turnblock stops turning will Mario clip downward.

Steps

1. Swim up-left to grab the key.
2. Hit the turnblock with the key to start it turning.
3. "Stand" (hold down on the D-pad) inside the turnblock, in the corner.
4. As the turnblock is about to stop turning, press the jump button(s) repeatedly while holding down on the D-Pad.
• If done correctly, Mario will clip down into the ledge under the turnblock.
5. Swim through to the door.
6. Kick the key up near the door.
7. Stand on the key as it falls to enter the door.

Mechanics

• Swim down through platform:
• Mario can clip down through platforms that are moving up; he just has to be moving up slower than the platform.
• This includes brown floating platforms, dolphins, etc.
• Rope Glitch:
• Rope Glitch happens when Mario rubs against a wall while climbing a rope (and is knocked off the rope).
• Rope Glitch allows Mario to climb anywhere on the level.
• You can press jump at any time to get out of the climbing state.
• You can press up/down at any time to get back into the climbing state.
• Shell jumps

Steps

1. Slowly swim up to pass through the brown floating platform at the beginning (hold Down on D-Pad, repeatedly press B and/or A)
2. Swim to the top of the rope. (Don't hold up/down or Mario will grab the rope too early).
3. Grab the rope at the top, then move downward to avoid the deadly toasters.
• Keep holding onto the rope as Mario touches the wall; this will trigger the Rope Glitch.
4. Swim up to the shell, 'climb' over the deadly toasters to reach the shell.
5. Collect the orb while holding the shell and while not in a climbing state.
• If Mario is climbing when the orb is touched, Mario will climb to the right into the lava and die.
• Otherwise, Mario will throw the shell as soon as the 'orb walk' starts (which is intended).
• If done correctly, Mario will walk off the ledge, fall onto the shell as it's bouncing, and bounce safely into the 1-tile gap that previously contained the shell.

Mechanics

• Block Dupe:
• Hittable blocks can be 'duped' (duplicated) causing the another block to appear nearby.
• Standing directly next to the block will dupe the block upward.
• Standing a half-tile to the left of the block will dupe the block to the left (or up-left).

Steps

1. Pick up the shell, and stand about half a tile away from the left side of noteblock.
2. Jump.
3. When Mario is next to the noteblock (the held shell is about 1/3rd into the noteblock from the bottom), throw the shell up.
• If done correctly, another noteblock will appear to the left
• If you want more information and examples of block duplication, check out this youtube video by Squiggs.
4. Repeat until you can bounce off the noteblocks to reach the top ledge while holding the shell.

Mechanics

• Block Dupe: Explained in 5-1.

Steps

1. Get the key from the question block.
• Mario can avoid hitting the invisible (dotted) coin blocks by jumping from the side at an angle.
• Mario can still activate a question block while falling downward, as long as he passes through the bottom corner.
2. Stand against the wall under the yellow turnblock, holding the key.
3. Do a small regular jump (don't jump into the turnblock).
4. At the peak of your jump, throw the key up (against the wall).
• If done correctly, the key will clip up into the wall and dupe the yellow turnblock, opening a gap.
• Note: If the key gets stuck, you can 'screen scroll' using the L/R buttons to try to get the key back.
• ...Or you can jump on top of the turnblock to get the key back.

Mechanics

• Item Dupe:
• Hitting a block multiple times in a short period can cause an item block to spawn duplicate items.
• Invisible Yoshi Teleport: Explained in 3-6.

Steps

1. Pick up the key.
2. Throw the key up towards the question block as you jump into the same block.
• You want to hit the question block with Mario at the same time the key hits the block.
• If done correctly, 2 Yoshis will spawn in the same place. The Yoshi hatching animation will be sped up when you get it.
3. Move the visible Yoshi out of the way and mount the invisible Yoshi.
4. Grab the key, stand below the door, and 'Dismount' the invisible Yoshi (A) to teleport up.

Mechanics

• Block Facory:
• Blocks can be duplicated repeatedly if a throwable sprite gets stuck inside them.
• Noteblock Unload:
• Constantly duping noteblocks can cause other noteblocks to stop working when Mario interacts with them.
• Noteblock Run:
• Mario can run across noteblocks without triggering the bounce. Speed matters!

Steps

1. Grab the key and stand against the wall, facing left.
2. Throw the key up in between the 2 noteblocks on the left.
• You want the key to cause 2 noteblocks to bounce repeatedly (not just 1!).
• This starts the block factory.
3. Leave the factory going and walk under the noteblocks on the right.
4. Start jumping into each noteblock until it disappears.
• It may take multiple jumps to make a noteblock disappear.
• When a noteblock disappears, it becomes an invisible, solid block with no bounce effect.
5. Grab the key, jump on top of the invisible blocks to run under the spike ceiling and jump up.
6. Stand 1 away from the wall on the right, then run full speed to the left.
• If done correctly, Mario will run across the noteblocks without bouncing up into the ceiling spikes.
7. Drop key to enter the pipe.

Mechanics

• Item Dupe: Explained in 5-3.
• Power-up Switching Dupe:
• Mario can Item Dupe by hitting an item block with his cape while collecting a Fireflower.

Steps

1. Press the select button to drop the stored Fireflower down.
2. Jump and press the cape spin button (Y or X) while Mario is next to the item block, at the same time that Mario collects the fireflower.
• If done correctly, Mario's cape spin will hit the block many times, causing ~10 P-switches to appear above the block.
• The game will lag slightly due to the number of sprites on screen.
3. Activate a P-switch. Collect coins. Wait. Repeat
• To reduce lag (and waiting time), despawn all the P-switches except 1 by jumping on them all at once.
• Yumps are very easy when doing this!

Mechanic

• Block Dupe: Explained in 5-1.

Steps

• The Boo boss requires 5 hits.
• You need to dupe the question block at least 3 times.

Mechanics

• Drop shell jump:
• Mario can bump into shells in mid-air, this can lead to a shelljump if timed correctly.

Steps

1. Grab the shell and jump up above the key, facing left.
• Tip: Hold jump the whole time
2. Drop the shell and immediately hold the grab button to grab the key.
3. Hug the left wall where the cement block is. Mario will bump the shell down and to the right.
4. As Mario falls, move left and aim for the shell below the screen.
5. Bounce off the shell to reach the door

Mechanics

• Up-throw Shell Clip:
• Shells can clip through solid tiles if they are thrown up while being kicked.

Steps

1. Wait until the Koopa is about to kick the shell.
2. Grab the shell and immediately throw up.
• If timed correctly, the shell will go up and clip into the 1-tile space above.
• If shell bounces off ceiling and goes down, you threw too early.
• If shell flies off to the left side of the screen, you threw too late.
3. Bounce off the shell as it is falling to reach the door.

Mechanics

• Blue Koopa Hitboxes:
• Blue Koopas will have a hitbox as soon as they are squirted out of a shell.
• Mario can jump on Blue Koopas while they are stil in mid-air.

Steps

1. Shelljump against the wall (throw shell near cement blocks) so that the blue koopa slides down against the wall.
• Tip: It helps to shelljump "late" so that the Mario is low enough to eventually bounce on the Koopa.
2. Fall, then bounce off the koopa at the bottom of the screen to reach the door

Alternate strat: You can drop the shell right before the koopa wakes up, then jump off the koopa.

Mechanics

• Drop Shelljump: Explained in 6-1.

Steps

1. Jump and turn to face left while moving right.
2. Drop the shell near the peak of Mario's jump so the shell falls slightly below Mario.
3. Delay: Wait until the starting ledge is out of the way.
4. Bump into the shell at the correct time so that the shell bumps into the wall under the door.
5. Jump off the shell to reach the door
• If the shell is too low, that means you are dropping too early.
• If the shell is too high, or Mario is killed by the shell, then you are dropping too late.
• Tip: Do a consistent (full) jump so the drop timing is consistent.

Mechanics

• Upthrow Shelljump:
• If Mario throws a shell up while moving up (off a spring/green bean), the shell can bump off of mario, then a nearby wall, and come back for Mario to jump on.
• This gives Mario more height than a regular (horizontally-thrown) shelljump.

Steps

1. Hold the up-right direction the whole time.
• Mario throws the shell straight up even if up-right is held.
2. Grab the shell and run onto the spring.
• Hold the jump button (B) for maximum height.
3. As Mario is bouncing off the spring (roughly 3 tiles above the spring), throw the shell up.
• If timed correctly, Mario will bump the shell to the left, the shell will bounce off the wall, and Mario will bounce off the shell.
• The timing is tight: Mario will die if you throw too late, shell will miss Mario if you throw too early.

Mechanics

• Shell Jumps.

Steps

1. Hold the shell (and hold the jump button), then run off the ledge.
2. Right before falling off the ledge, throw the shell up (release the grab/run button).
3. Keep going right so that Mario bumps the shell left as he passes through.
• If done correctly, the shell will bump off the wall on the left (near the cement blocks), allowing Mario to bounce to the door.

Mechanics

• Shell Jumps.
• Post-goal Orb Walk.

Steps

1. Shelljump.
• Mario should touch the orb while close to the wall so he can reach the top ledge.
• Make it an extra-large Biggie-sized shelljump.
• Victory theme is such a banger.
2. Alternate (harder) strat: Wall-clip jump.

Mechanics

• Left-right Spring Jump:
• Mario can jump off a spring in mid-air if he throws spring through him before the peak of his jump.

Steps

1. Grab the spring, run to the right, and jump.
2. Immediately after jumping, tap the Left button so Mario faces left while moving right
3. Before the peak of Mario's jump (1 tile before peak), tap the right direction while letting go of the grab button.
• If timed correctly, Mario will kick the spring from his left side to the right, his feet will catch on it, and he'll get a spring jump.

Mechanics

• Double Spring Upthrow Clip:
• Mario can be pushed through tiles (clip) if he throws a spring up while moving up quickly (e.g. off another spring, greenbean).
• Spin Clip.

Steps

1. Grab the spring on the right, jump onto the spring on the left, facing the right direction.
2. As Mario is jumping off the spring, throw the held spring up.
• If timed correctly, Mario will be pushed through the corner into the 1-tile gap containing the mushroom
• Mario may clip into the bones and die. That's Ok, these things happen.
3. Get the mushroom and spin-clip out.
4. Pick up a spring and place it on the 3 cement tiles. Grab and hold the other spring.
5. Perform the same trick from step 2 again, this time clipping straight up through the bone under the munchers.

Mechanics

• Delayed Spring Jumps:
• Similar to delayed shell drop in 6-4.
1. Mario drops a spring behind him (and below him) mid-jump.
2. Mario falls onto the spring in mid-air

Steps

1. Grab spring, run, and jump to the right.
2. Immediately after jumping, tap the left button to face left while still moving to the right.
3. Before the peak of Mario's jump (1 tile before), let go of the grab button to drop the spring.
• If done correctly, the spring will be right beneath Mario.
4. Move left as needed to get Mario on top of the spring.
• You may need to let go of the jump button to fall faster onto the spring.
• Spring jump up to the door.

Mechanics

• Falling Spring Clip Down:
• Mario can clip downward by standing on a spring that is moving downward.
• Lava is Water:
• The very bottom of lava tiles act like water for Mario. Mario can swim through them.
• Wall-running on/through everything:
• Mario can wall-run through many different tiles, including lava tiles.

Steps

1. Spring clip down
1. Grab the spring and stand at the edge above the lava.
2. Throw the spring up.
3. Slowly walk forward into the spring as it falls so it will fall through Mario.
• If done correctly, Mario will clip down to the lower ledge.
2. Grab the spring. Jump up on top of the pipe while holding down to swim through the very bottom of the lava.
• In SMW, the bottom of lava acts like water for Mario.
3. Throw the spring up so it lands where the door is -- you will use the spring to enter the door.
4. Wall-run through the lava, then jump onto the spring.
5. To enter the door, tap the Up direction as Mario is landing on the spring.

• Note: The lava in this room is re-skinned, but all the behavior is vanilla.
• The surface of the lava on the left allows sprites to fall through it (regular lava surface).
• The surface of the lava on the right allows sprites to rest on top of it (sloped lava surface).

Mechanics

• Spring Upthrow Yoshi Mount:
• Throwing a spring up at the right time while mounting Yoshi will put Mario on top of Yoshi.. on top of the spring.
• This allows Mario (and Yoshi) to bounce on the spring twice.

Steps

1. Dismount Yoshi so he slides between the munchers to the right.
2. Carry the spring to the cement under Yoshi.
3. Jump.
4. At the peak of your jump (right when Mario starts to fall downward), throw the spring up and let go of the jump button.
• If done correctly, Mario will mount Yoshi on top the spring as the spring is going up. This allows you to bounce twice on the spring.
5. Don't hold jump for the first bounce, as the spring is still travelling upward.
6. Full bounce (hold jump) on the spring at it's zenith to maximize Marioshi's height.
7. Dismount Yoshi at the peak to reach the door.

Mechanics

• Double carry springs:
• Mario can carry 2 (or more!) springs at the same time.
• This can be done by throwing the spring while turning around next to the other spring, pressing grab shortly after throwing will grab both springs.
• Double spring wall clip:
• Letting go of 2 springs while jumping inside a 1-tile gap will cause the springs to push Mario into the wall. This basically forces a wall-clip to happen.
• Double spring upthrow jump:
• Mario can get a lot of height by throwing a spring up while jumping off of another spring.

Steps

1. Carry both springs.
• You can just not hold the grab button as the level is loading after death: Mario spawns between the springs.
• Pressing the grab button while Mario is between two springs will cause Mario to pickup both springs.
• Otherwise, you can carry both springs by throwing a spring while turning around into the other spring.
2. Wall-clip into the noteblocks:
1. Stand on the right-side of the 1-tile gap, facing left.
2. Jump straight up.
3. At the peak of the jump, let go of the grab button -- Mario will let go of the springs, and the springs will push Mario into the noteblocks.
• This forces Mario to wall-clip.
4. Hold the grab button and jump button to grab both springs as Mario bounces up.
3. Double spring jump:
1. Set one spring on the cement tiles. Carry the other.
2. Throw the spring up as you jump off the spring on the cement.
• If thrown at the right time, Mario will end up on top the spring at it's peak.
• You may need to let go of jump to land on the spring in mid-air.
3. Jump off the second spring to reach the ledge where the orb is.
• Alternate strat: Jump off the spring and kick the other spring against the wall to spring jump up. This is tighter than the upthrow technique.

Mechanics

• Bouncing Throwblocks:
• Throwblocks will bounce off of steep slopes (as seen in Super Slope Muncher).
• In this room, the weird moving blocks on the left are simply reskinned steep slopes (for aesthetic purposes).

Steps

1. Grab the throwblock, jump.
2. At the peak of your jump, throw the throwblock into the 'steep slopes' (weird moving tiles) on the left.
3. Spin jump off the block as it bounces down to the bottom of the screen to reach the door.
• Tip: Throw when Mario has no horizontal momentum, to ensure the throwblock's speed is consistent.

Mechanics

• Throwblock Pickup Momentum Preservation:
• Mario can maintain his momentum while picking up throwblocks if you press the grab button at the moment Mario touches the throwblock.

Steps

1. Run and jump towards the throwblock.
2. Grab the throwblock (press the Y or X button) at the same time that Mario first touches the throwblock.
• Timing is precise, it may help to press both grab buttons at almost the same time for a better chance.
3. Use throwblock to break turnblock and get in the door.

Note: This trick is usually frame-perfect, but this setup allows some room for error (Mario can clip into the corner).

Mechanics

• P-speed Throwblock Bump:
• When Mario bumps into a stationary throwblock, the throwblock will move slower than if Mario threw the block.
• This allows Mario to spinjump off of the throwblock if he can gain P-speed.

Steps

1. Pick up the throwblock and throw it up into the question block.
2. Immediately run under the throwblock to the left.
• Don't bump or grab the throwblock; it needs to fall down through the red question block.
3. Fall to the bottom ledge and run toward the throwblock.
• Mario needs P-speed here so be fast.
4. Let go of the run/grab button as Mario is about to touch the throwblock. This 'bonks' the throwblock (at a low speed) rather than throwing it (at a high speed).
5. Press the run/grab button again, to regain P-Speed, then Spin-jump before the spikes.
• If done correctly, Mario will bump the throwblock to the right at a low speed, and will spin-jump off of the moving throwblock.
• If the throwblock goes really fast, or if Mario picks up the throwblock, you did not release the grab button in time.
6. Collect the falling mushroom and make a hard left into the door.

Mechanics

• P-Switch Door Entry:
• Mario can enter doors while standing on P-switches, but the up direction button must be pressed as the switch is activated.

Steps

1. Grab the P-Switch and jump towards the door.
2. Drop the P-Switch on your way to the door.
3. Press the up button as Mario is landing on the P-switch.
• If timed correctly, Mario will enter the door.

Mechanics

• Used P-switch Throw:
• Mario can throw a P-switch for a short time period after activating the switch.
• The used switch still acts like a regular P-switch (can activate turnblocks, question blocks, etc).
• Midair door entry:
• Mario can enter doors by standing on a key while the key is in mid-air.

Steps

1. Place the P-switch on the ground next to the solid brown blocks.
2. Jump and land on the switch to activate it, then throw the 'used' switch to the right into the question blocks that just appeared.
• The timing is awkward; Mario won't pick up the switch immediately.
• You have to wait for a very short period before the switch can be picked up and thrown.
• But the switch quickly disappears, so you can't wait too long.
• If done correctly, the switch will hit the question block and open a path.
3. Get the key and jump towards the door.
4. Near the peak of your jump, drop the key (release the grab button).
5. As Mario falls onto the key, press up on the D-pad.
• Timing the up-press to enter the door is very precise.
• If you see Mario do a small 'bounce' on the key, that is the time you should have pressed Up.
• Tip: Consistently drop the key at the same height, so you can focus on just pressing the up button at the right time.

Mechanics

• Key Jump:
• While standing on a key, Mario can jump and pick the key up at the same time. This is called a "key jump".
• Mario can also drop the key while in mid-air and stand on it for a short time.
• The two properties above allows Mario to chain key jumps together infinitely. This is the basis of ABC_ore's Stream.
• Key Pipe Entry Carry:
• Mario can carry a key with him while going through a pipe.

Steps

1. Key jump
• Standing key jump technique
1. Stand on top of the key, about 1 tile from the skewer.
2. Do a 'key jump' straight up into the air.
3. Before the peak of Mario's jump, drop the key in the air and immediately stand on it.
• Note: You cannot let go of the grab button and the jump button at the same time, because Mario will not get high enough to be on top of the key.
4. While standing on the key in mid air, perform another 'key jump' to get over the skewer.
• "Shell-Jump Timing" technique.
1. Run and jump into the air with the key.
2. Near the peak of your jump, throw the key into the wall/skewer.
• The key will bounce off the wall and come back to Mario.
3. As Mario lands on the key, press the jump and grab buttons at the same time (on the same frame).
2. Enter the pipe while holding the key.
1. Drop the key under the pipe.
2. Jump against the wall so Mario is standing on the key and aligned directly next to the pipe
3. Press the grab button as Mario enters the pipe to take the key with you.
• Tip: If Mario is aligned against the pipe, then just focus on pressing the Right and Grab buttons at the same time.

Mechanics

• Key Damage:
• Mario can hurt/kill some enemies (such as Pokeys) with a key, by throwing the key while next to the enemy.
• Key Pipe Entry Carry: Explained in 8-6.

Steps

1. Have key
• The pipe on the left will take you to a room with a key and a pipe.
• The Pipe-key-entry is explained in 8-6.
2. Kill Pokey
1. Hold the key and stand still right next to the Pokey, facing right.
2. Tap Left on the D-Pad as you let go of the grab button to throw the key to the left while Mario is turning around.
• You want the white spiky "kick" animation to be on the right side of Mario.
• If done correctly (and close enough to the Pokey), the key throw will damage the Pokey.
3. Repeat 2 more times to kill the Pokey and clear a path to the orb.

Mechanics

• Yump:
• Mario can jump off of P-switches and Switch Palace switches if either jump button is pressed at the moment the switch is activated.
• For this room, the spin-jump button has been disabled to ensure maximum non-non-non-scrubness.
• Also for this room, Mario will die if he does not get a 'Yump' on the Switch Palace switch.
• Switch Palace Corners:
• Switch palace corners (the one above the message box) are notorious for being easy to clip into.
• This is because the corners don't actually work in vanilla SMW; Nintendo inserted an invisible block sprite where the switch palace corners should be, so players cannot jump "into" the corners.
• Mario can clip the top of the invisible block sprite much easier than a vanilla wall.
• Additionally, Mario can clip into the top of the message box even easier than a switch palace corner.
• You can do a wall-jump by pressing the jump button on the frame that Mario clips into the corner.

Steps

1. Press the jump button as Mario is activating the Switch palace switch to perform the fabled "Yump".
• Note: The additional P-switch is there for swag points (or to spell "Pee!") and is not necessary to complete the level.

Mechanics

• Regrabs: Explained in 1-1.
• Controlled jumps:
• Letting go of the jump button to reduce Mario's jump height and fall faster.

Steps

1. Spin-jump onto the right side of the first Fuzzy.
2. Bounce and regrab to reach the second Fuzzy.
3. Bounce to the fuzzy climbing down the wall. Control your jump so you land as early as possible.
4. Avoid the invisible (dotted) coin block while swinging left to reach the last Fuzzy.
5. Activate the row of invisible (dotted) coin blocks to build a path to the door.

Mechanics

• Ceiling Wigglers:
• While falling off-screen into a pit, Mario can jump off of Wigglers that are on top of the screen.
• This appears as though the room has a 'screen-wrap' effect.
• Falling Wigglers:
• The hitboxes of a Wiggler as it is falling does not match the graphics shown, and Mario can appear to pass through the falling Wiggler.

Steps

1. Jump over the spike into the pit (straight down) while holding jump. Mario will jump off of the first Wiggler.
2. Jump on the 2nd Wiggler.
3. Jump on the 3rd Wiggler to reach the door.

Mechanics

• Wall-run Jump:
• While wall-running, Mario can full-jump off of the top of the wall, even if the top edge would kill mario to touch.

Steps

1. Run up the wall.
2. Jump at the top-left corner of muncher. Either of the jump types will work (A or B).
• If done correctly, Mario will get a full-height jump off of the muncher.
• If Mario jumps to the left side of the muncher, you jumped too soon.
• If Mario dies at the top-middle of the munchers, you jumped too late.
3. Guide Mario between the skewers to the door.

Mechanics

• Various clips: The Super Mario World game engine is broken.
• Wall-run clip explained in 2-6.
• Expanding Bridge clip explained in 2-2.
• Cloud clip explained in 2-7.

Steps

• You've seen these clips before in Level 2 (Great Clips). Do them again.
• To keep the cloud while in the 1-tile gap:
1. Hold down and press jump (B). The cloud moves downward.
2. Spin-clip (A) through the tiles to clip straight down back into the cloud.
3. Timing is important. Spamming the (A) button helps. Luck helps too.

Mechanics

• Baby Yoshi Double-Eat: Explained in 3-1.
• Yoshi Lava Surfing:
• Mario can move a Yoshi that is standing on top of sloped Lava by dismounting immediately after mounting.

Steps

1. Hold the jump button as you walk off the edge. Don't hold the grab button.
• Don't grab any shells, just bump them as you fall.
2. Red shell goes right.
3. Yellow shell goes left. Jump on it after it bounces off the wall.
• Tip: If you're dying to the yellow shell, make sure you're hitting the top-most right side of the shell (not just the right side).
4. Green shell goes right. Jump on it after it bounces off the wall.
• If done correctly, baby Yoshi will get 2 double-eats and turn into Big Yoshi right as Mario is falling into the lava.
5. Mount Yoshi, then immediately dismount before falling into the lava.
6. Collect the mushroom, repeatedly mount and dismount while slowly moving Yoshi to the right.
7. When close enough, dismount and damage boost into the door.

Mechanics

• Yump: Explained in 9-S. Mario can get a 'Yump' off of P-switchs in mid-air.

Steps

1. Grab the P-switch, run right, and jump to the right.
2. Immediately after jumping, tap left to turn Mario around to face left.
3. Before the peak of Mario's jump, drop P-switch.
4. Tap left to get Mario on top of the P-switch as needed.
5. Press jump at the same time that Mario activates the P-switch.
• Scrub Tip: Press both jump buttons (A and B) at nearly the same time to double your chance of getting a Yump.

Mechanics

• Keyjumps: Explained in 8-6.

Steps

1. Drop the key in midair, then tap Mario in the direction towards the key (left or right) to get Mario above the key again.
2. Do a key jump and turn around to face the opposite direction.
3. Repeat.
• It helps to neutral the D-pad when dropping: This way you don't have to hold down to drop the key.
• Note: Mario does not need to carry the key into the pipe.

Mechanics

• Wall Clip Jump:
• Mario can clip into walls (explained in 2-8).
• If you press either jump buttons on the same frame that Mario enters the wall, you can get a Wall Clip Jump.

Steps

1. Jump towards the wall with full momentum.
• Try to touch the wall so Mario's feet are at the same level as the top of the cement blocks.
2. Clip into the wall.
• Mario is not guaranteed to clip into the wall even if you line it up perfectly: there are other factors ('subpixels') that decide if Mario will clip into the wall or not.
• The player has very little control over these factors, so persistence is key.
• You can tell when you get a wall-clip if Mario does a slight wiggle when touching the wall.
• If you are spin-jumping into the wall, a wall clip will cancel Mario's spin (you'll know when you get it).
3. Press either jump buttons at the same time that Mario clips into the wall.
• The jump timing is very precise (frame perfect). This can take hours. Good luck!
• You may want to press both jump buttons at almost the same time to increase your chances of pressing jump on the correct frame.

Mechanics

• Banzai Double Bop: Explained in 1-7.

• Wiggler Ladder: Explained in 1-6.

Steps

1. This is the same trick as 1-7 but with a wiggler ladder at the end.

Mechanics

• Sliding in 1-tile space: Explained in 2-4
• Expanding Bridge Clip: Explained in 2-2
• Spinning Turnblock Limits:
• SMW's engine only allows 4 turnblocks to spin at a time.
• When Mario hits a turnblock that would be the 5th spinning turnblock, the first turnblock stops spinning.

Steps

1. Hold the Jump button and Left on the D-pad at the start.
• This gives Mario distance needed to clear the lava.
2. Press Jump (B) while sliding through the pipe above the dirt ledge, to get on top of the pipe.
3. Duck and jump on top of the Expanding Bridge Block. Stand on the right side of the expanding bridge tile, then duck.
• When the Bridge expands, Mario will be pushed into the munchers on the ceiling.
• If Mario is on the left side of the Expanding Bridge, he will die.
4. Hit all 4 of the lower turnblocks, making sure to hit the turnblock under the door first.
5. Jump to hit the turnblock above the door.
• This causes the turnblock below the door to stop spinning.

Mechanics

• Yoshi Teleport: Explained in 3-6.
• Key Door Entry: Explained in 8-5.

Steps

1. Hit both question blocks quickly to spawn 2 Yoshis (one visible, one invisible).
2. Mount the invisible Yoshi.
3. Grab the key, run, and jump into the pit.
4. Throw the key up as soon as Mario is clear of the ceiling.
5. Immediately teleport by pressing A.
• If done correctly, Mario will teleport above the key as it is moving upward towards the door.
6. Land on the key while it is near the door, and press up on the D-pad to enter.

Mechanics

• Blue Koopa Hitbox: Explained in 6-3.
• Shelljumps

Steps

1. Jump and hit the left side of the Koopa shell so the koopa squirts to the right.
• You want to land 'low' on the koopa shell (don't hold jump!) so the koopa is squirted at the same height as Mario.
2. Grab the shell on your way down.
3. Bounce off the koopa while it is off-screen.
4. Shell-jump up to the door.

• Note: You can use this 'low bounce' mechanic to clear the 6-3 room without doing a shelljump.

Mechanics

• Spring Upthrow Clip:
• Usually, Mario cannot 'catch up' to a spring that has been thrown upwards.
• Clipping into the side of a block will push mario up and left; this upward movement can be enough to put Mario on top of a thrown spring.

Steps

1. Grab the spring and run left.
2. When Mario is under the dotted line block, perform these actions at nearly the same time.
1. Press jump (B)
2. Release the grab button (Y) exactly 2 frames after pressing the jump (B) button.
• If done correctly, Mario will bounce off the spring, and the spring will continue travelling up above the rope.
• If Mario does not bounce on the spring, you may be releasing too early, or too late.
• If Mario bounces on the spring, or the spring does not make it up to the rope, you may be jumping too early (should jump on left side of dotted line block).
3. Drop the spring under the door to enter.

Note: You can also do this trick while standing still, half-way off of the ledge. This might make timing the (B) press & (Y) release simpler.

Mechanics

• Bouncing Throwblocks: Explained in 8-1.
• Falling Spring Clip Down: Explained in 7-4.
• Mid-air Pipe Entry: Mario can enter pipes while standing on a spring in mid-air.

Steps

1. Get to the moving platform.
1. Throw the throwblock to the right.
2. Throw the spring up.
3. Spin-jump & grab spring as it falls.
4. Bounce off of the moving turnblock.
2. Clip through the lava.
1. Stand on the platform while holding the spring.
2. Throw the spring up into the ceiling as platform is moving down.
3. Walk Mario slightly forward so the spring lands on top of him.
4. If timed and executed correctly, Mario will clip through the lava.
• Visual indicator: Throw up when Mario's mustache is about to touch the top of the window in the background.
3. Enter the pipe.
1. Stand under the pipe, against the wall, facing right, while holding the spring.
2. Throw the spring up.
3. Jump up and hold left to enter the pipe as Mario briefly stands on the spring.

Mechanics

• Rope Spin Jump:
• Mario can maintain a spin-jump while jumping off a rope if you press Up on the d-pad and the jump button (B, not spin jump), at the same time while over the rope.

Steps

1. Spin jump towards the Rope.
2. Press up on the d-pad and B (not A!) at the same exact time, while Mario is moving through the rope.
• If done correctly, Mario will spin jump off the rope (and maintain his momentum).
• If Mario grabs the rope but doesn't jump, you pressed jump too early.
• If Mario jumps up into the spike, you either pressed jump too late, or you are pressing the buttons too early.
• Wait until Mario directly over the rope.
3. Bounce on Fuzzies to reach the door

Mechanics

• Key Jump: Explained in 10-7.

Steps

• Same as 10-7 but higher (The orbs are 17 tiles above the ground).
• Note: You can skip these keyjumps by using the hints for the room (press Select) and wall-running.
• ...But at what cost? "Scrub!", they'll say.
• "didn't even try lmao I'm outta here", others will echo.
• But some will reassure you, "yea I skipped it too. keyjumps are dumb"

Mechanics

• Throwblock Drop:
• Mario can drop a throwblock to kill enemies/sprites without destroying the throwblock.
• Bowser Statue Fire:
• Stationary Bowser statues that are not spitting fire will begin spitting fire if Mario bumps into them from below.

Steps

1. Pick up the throwblock.
2. Run towards the spinning magic Playstation symbol.
3. Neutral the D-Pad before letting go of the grab button to "drop" the throwblock onto the magic.
• If done correctly, the magic will be destroyed but the throwblock will not.
4. Repeat for the next spinning magic Playstation symbol.
5. Throw the throwblock up to make the Bowser statue fall down.
6. As it falls, jump into the bottom of the Bowser statue to activate it's fire-spitting potential.
• Aim for the lower-right side of the statue; the statue may spit fire immediately, killing Mario if he is on the left side.
7. Stand next to the Bowser statue and wait for when it is about to spit fire.
• Tip: You can predict when the statue will spit fire by looking at where the previous fire's position.
8. Throw the throwblock up and spin-jump onto the fire.
9. Cross the lava to the door.
