Donut Lifts (also known as Donut Blocks) are a kind of platform first appearing in Super Mario Bros. 3. They get their name from the fact that they are round (except for the top) with a hole in the middle. If Mario or Luigi stands on one for more than a second, it drops below, often into Lava. For this reason, Mario and Luigi should avoid touching the ground by Jumping as much as possible when crossing Donut Lifts.
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and its remake Yoshi's Island DS also contained Donut Lifts. They also appear in Super Princess Peach and Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis, where they do the same thing.
Donut Lift-like platforms appear in Super Mario 64 and its remake, Super Mario 64 DS. In Lethal Lava Land's volcano, they appears near the top, along with the moving platforms. In Rainbow Ride, most had to be jumped over during the magic carpet ride and some served as bridges to other parts of the level.
