After surviving Rok-Ko's intention to bury him into the ground, Crash can now enter the 2nd Warp Room chamber, hosted by the Water Elemental, Wa-Wa, who's more than ready to drench and drown him.

Wa-Wa will scar you with his drill sergeant voice. This makes him seem like the oldest of the Elementals. Related to that, I'll tell you now that the Water Chamber is the best represented element in the game. All 5 levels have water in them in some fashion, and even quite a few before and after these levels will have water, too.

Also, this Warp Room chamber is the home of the game's first Coco level. I'll cover that, later.

--------------

Jungle Rumble takes place in a rainforest. There are actually pools at the beginning and end of this level. But Crash is both better and worse in deep water compared to Crash 2 & 3.

He's better, because, you can actually move him around at the bottom of these lakes with not too much worry, but he's also worse because that lasts for just a single second, and he will IMMEDIATELY drown right afterwards, without even so much as putting up a fight, this time. He just floats up completely dead and motionless.

This is kinda dumb, because certain water pits in other levels will make him drown just like this as soon as he falls in without the 1-second delay. He drowns even faster here than he ever did in the Naughty Dog games! Sonic would have a laugh riot!

--------------

You can actually go through this level pretty quick. Take out the Bonus area and you can reach the Jeep in about 2-4 minutes, which is where the 2nd half this level mostly focuses on. Use that Jeep to outrun the rhinos speeding after you.

Once you get to the end, just grab the Crystal, as well as the Gem if you got all of the crates by that point. This level's otherwise mostly straightforward, so there's not too much else for me to say, here.

That edit-in at 0:44 was an opportunity.
