Lava Lift

Skull Raft is a raft made out of bones and only appeared in Super Mario World. They are used to help Mario and Luigi to cross the lava river. They are only seen in a couple levels where there are levels filled with lava rivers. However, sometimes, Blarggs will jump out and try to attack Mario or Luigi, so they had to jump to avoid them, then land back on the Skull Raft.
