Watch An Expert Beat An Absurdly Difficult Mario Maker Level

With so many Super Mario Maker levels out there, it is difficult to claim one as being the most difficult, but Pit of Panga: Bomb Voyage from creator Panga makes a pretty good argument for itself.

The playthrough of the level comes from YouTube user Bananasaurus Rex who is clearly better at Mario than I could ever hope to be. According to the description of the video, at the time of recording, this level had been attempted 11,000 times and this was the first completion. That number will likely change soon as the level gains in popularity, but it's an impressive feat none-the-less.

To download and try the level yourself, here's the code: 2A8F-0000-0049-9485

With videos like this, as well as one we recently shared of a very cool, but undeniably disturbing level about Waluigi, it's still odd to me that there is no "upload directly to YouTube" option for playing through Super Mario Maker levels. We asked the game's director and producer about this at E3, and you can find their response here.
