It has been requested that this article be rewritten.
Firebars are rotating rods that are formed from fireballs; they are generally found in fortresses. They debuted in Super Mario Bros.. Although not a living enemy, they go swinging around trying to hurt Mario or Luigi. In later games, they were replaced with similar-acting enemies such as Roto-Discs and Ball 'n' Chains.
In Paper Mario, the Firebars reappeared in Koopa Bros. Fortress and Mt. Lavalava; this time they swing sideways. They also swing either clockwise or counter-clockwise, if Mario touches one; he loses some HP. Jumping over one of these Firebars causes it to swing faster. If Mario dodges one 10 times, it will vanish and drop a number of coins.
They were the only enemies of the original Super Mario Bros. to not be featured again in Super Mario Bros. 3. They appear in later Mario games such as Super Mario Bros. The Lost Levels, Super Mario 64, New Super Mario Bros., Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Yoshi's Island DS, Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis, Super Paper Mario, Super Mario Galaxy, New Super Mario Bros. Wii and Super Mario Galaxy 2. They were also given notable appearances in certain castles of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, which depicted them as swinging three-dimensionally; a Firebar depicted with eyes working on similar 3D mechanics also appeared in the Bowser Castle of Mario Kart: Double Dash!!.
