A Super Mario Maker 2 player who goes by the name 'YTSunny' on YouTube, has created the "worst ever" version of the first level in the original Super Mario Bros. game on the NES.

This recreation of Level 1-1 comes with a tiny twist. While it mimics the exact layout of the original, it's filled to the brim with rotating fire bars you would normally encounter in Bowser's castle. If making it to the end wasn't already challenging enough, you're also racing against the clock. You'll no doubt be spurred on to move a little bit faster because of the in-game music.

Take a look at the level in action below:
