I beat W5-4 blindfolded! (And found TWO shortcuts!) #shorts  #mariovsdonkeykong

How I did it:

I hop 4 times to the right as soon as I get control of the game. This advances me far enough to the right for the spike to fall from the ceiling while at the same time being just a jump distance away from it. Once I hear it hit the floor, I jump to it and then jump for the chains. I climb until I hear two chain rattles and then jump, climb again until I hear two chain rattles (although in the video the second rattle never came out) and then jump again. Once on the platform, I do a triple jump to bypass having to activate the blue switch. I hold left until I hear Mario fall, and then count 4 footsteps before jumping over to the key. I actually messed this part up pretty bad. It took me three attempts to grab the key. I was supposed to grab it on the first try and count 5 hops before jumping to the platform, but since it took me three attempts to grab the key, I only counted 3 hops. I even hopped one too many times before going into the second room. The last hop wasn't necessary.

In the second room, I do a full hop to the right and hop two more times while making slight directional inputs to the right. The point of this is so I'm just barely on the platform. I want to be as close to the edge as possible for the shortcut. I then quickly triple jump to the blue switch and activate it and then jump for the platform. I want to do this all very quickly so I don't miss the platform on the first cycle. Once on the platform I jump three times and then jump to the other platform. I held right a little too long and almost jumped over the platform. I sing the ABCs and stop at S because I know I'm close enough to the next area to jump to it without falling down once I reach that letter. Since I was so close to the edge of the platform, I almost died from the robot and the Boo! What I saw happening in my head wasn't at all what was happening on screen! But luckily I survived. After the robot pushes me through the gap, I grab the Mini-Mario.
