This is a very quick completion of the popular Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.

The author abuses a glitch that lets him warp to any stage up to 6-8 (but requires a certain amount of coins to set up — read the comments of the previous movie for more details), thus making it possible to defeat Bowser in mere six minutes of gameplay.

This is an improvement of 168 frames over the previous movie.
