Pillars[1][2] are large indestructible wooden columns appearing in Super Mario World and its Game Boy Advance version. Pillars appear in #1 Iggy's Castle, the Forest Fortress, and room 1 of Bowser's Castle, usually hidden in floors, ceilings, or walls. They move slowly for several seconds, revealing themselves, before suddenly smashing almost anything on their way. Several seconds later, Pillars move slowly back. If the player reaches the door at the end of rooms with Pillars but does not enter it, the nearby Pillar will appear to be cut off by the wall.
