    Jump over the gap onto a crumbling platform, then into an enclosed area. Hit the ! Box to activate all the Nitro boxes (required for the silver gem).
  10. 10
    Jump out to the next platforms. Avoid standing on the solid grey platforms, kill the monkey, and jump to the next platform. Break open the checkpoint.
  11. 11
    If you have the green gem, stand on the green platform to access the GREEN GEM PATH. Otherwise, jump to the next platforms.
  12. 12
    Pass the two flame-blowing statues by running past them when they stop.

    Jump onto the crumbling platform, then to the next platforms. Wait for the two flame-blowing statues to stop, then run past them.
  16. 16
    Break the box with an Aku Aku inside. When the next two flame-blowing statues stop, jump across two crumbling platforms and land on the falling platforms. Run over them, jump the gap, and break open the checkpoint.
  17. 17
    To the left, jump over the first Nitro box and land on the mouse to kill it. Jump over the next Nitro box.
