1-6 "Shy-Guys On Stilts" any% in 0:55

[0:12] I love levels that have extremely difficult shit in the beginning. Less time spent getting through all the aggravation of flying past the easy parts, then encountering the extremely-hard-trick late in the level, doomed to fail and repeat 2 billion times. Needless to say, hoping off the stilted shy-guy, turning around in midair as fast as possible, eating him, and turning around while losing as little momentum as possible isn't easy to do. This obviously ruined the most recorded attempts.

[0:23] Abusing the upward momentum of the yellow platform to jump higher than usual, exiting the cave sooner.

[0:55] SUPER OBVIOUS: Shy guy boosting to the ledge is faster than eating an egg, firing it at the cloud, watching the beanstalk animation before being able to climb it.

FAQ: 
• When you fire green eggs, they can bounce off of walls, and pipes. If they hit enemies, they resolve by killing the enemy touched. When they bounce off surfaces, they change colors. From green, to yellow, to red. If a yellow egg touches an enemy, 1 coin will appear. If a red egg touches an enemy, 2 stars will appear. 
• It's faster to jump across uneven surfaces than to walk on them. You can catch eggs that were thrown in midair by extending Yoshi's tongue to grab the egg. 
• Firing an egg, then canceling will send the egg that was canceled to the end of the line of eggs you currently have. This allows you to be able to select a particular (usually a red one) egg to be fired without wasting eggs.
