Can confirm, as of May 21st, 2024 the glitch still works! I couldn’t figure out the scooter method so I used the method at 2:10 and it worked like a charm. Just gotta be persistent! Also, DO NOT cross back into the original block area or else you’ll get trapped again.
The special world is honestly a prime example of what Nintendo CAN do and that's why it's nice to see it. The levels themselves are playful with things like the guy's massive hat being hidden by the cloud and the balloon off screen pushing you back near the flagpole and the difficulties/jerkish moments are a nice change of pace for how easy things tend to be. The game is made easier for younger audiences, but the addition of harder and meaner levels is a nice way to acknowledge the fans who've been around for a while. It's kinda like movement in Mario Odyssey. You CAN make it through the whole game without any particularly fancy tricks or moves but they're still there if you wanna play with them.
