This is currently the fastest-known method for completing the level via the Elsewhere 25 telepad. Here is a map of the level to visualize things: https://www.vgmaps.com/Atlas/Genesis/KidChameleon-HillsOfForever.png

So... what exactly happened here? There's a thing in this game called airwalking, where ducking perfectly on every other frame (30x per second) allows you to levitate over thin air. If you've watched other TASes, you're probably familiar with this, but maybe not the crazy teleportation at the end.

The teleportation occurred because I initiated the airwalking from a vertically-moving platform (the lift in this case). The game actually keeps track of the Y-position of the surface the airwalk was initiated from, and so when the airwalk is broken, you are instantly teleported to the current Y-position of the surface which you left earlier. Remember that lifts rapidly descend after they reach their maximum height. Thus, I broke the airwalk when the lift was well below the ground at precisely the moment its Y-position was equal to that of the telepad.

You can expect to see this trick featured in a new "Maximum Levels" TAS which visits dead-end elsewheres.
