Use Your Illusion Tour...

SMW: Forest Fortress Hazard Payoff


Super Mario World

Had long suspected there was more to see beyond the traditional "Boss Door" of the World 5 "Forest Fortress" in Super Mario World.

Attempted to go the distance by using the cape to fly over the seemingly endless pit of lava, but had no success.

Other players have had better luck "spin-jumping" off the Podoboo lava fireballs - Which sounds kinda insane, but it's actually the easier of the two strategies. Mario is more impervious to attacks this way, and the array of continuous fireballs inevitably keep Mario airborne.






World 5: Forest Fortress
Beyond The First Boss Door...








The second "Boss Door" leads to the exact same room - But taking the treacherously long route will award Mario with NINE (count them!) 1-Up Mushrooms.




Italian Cooking...

Mario gets roasted alive by red-hot lava.


Suddenly getting hungry for spicy pasta sauce...


Fortunately, reaching the alternate door isn't necessary towards the count of finding all 96 exits in the game.
Just a true accomplishment that any Mario Stuntman is bound to attempt.
 
On my own game file, gotta make it all the way back to the World 5 Fortress before I can try it again...





Straight to Video...

Just a quick clip of the actual trick itself (without watching the entire damn level):
