8-4 Glitchless Headbump strat (2nd room)
5 years ago
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

How to do it: Do a backwards jump into the left corner of the invisible coin block, release right when you hit it, then do a frame-perfect jump to preserve your running speed. Start holding right again when Mario reached the middle of the block. Try to adjust your jump height to land on the block as soon as possible, then jump to the pipe. If you kept running speed correctly, you should exit the room with a 365 on the timer (366 if you did a fast acceleration on the first or the second room). This is enough to get the any% glitchless WR down to 5:03.5xx.

Sorry about the bad quality recording. I can't change the shutter speed of my camera :(

However you need to backwards jump into the first pixel of the block. You jump a pixel earlier you won't hit the block. You jump a pixel later, you won't get pushed back. It sounds easy but it will take quite a while to get consistent at.

@Mars02 it isn't necessarily on the first pixel of the block. Sometimes I hit the block a bit higher and I still get the headbump.
