Burn Bits are Enemies in Super Mario Galaxy. They appear to be small chunks of fire, but when they're angered, they will burn with Red Fire, and attack the Player. To defeat them, the Player, must use a Star Spin, which will put out the flame surrounding them, and they will fall to the ground, attempting to run away from Mario or Luigi. Mario or Luigi can then run into them to kill them. However, sometimes instead of hitting the ground, Burn Bits fall into the lava, regenerating their flame.
