Well, you could always just not jump if you enjoy being impaled by spikes, scorched by fireballs, blasted by eyeballs, beaten by enemies, sucked into black holes, getting gunned down by cannons, etc. Hey look on the bright side, at least there are plenty of cool guys you can find down here on your adventure, you should try talking to them every now and then because you don’t have real friends!

Enjoy your stay!
