The Lava Hop
Tonight is one of those nights I goof around a lot and manage to find new tricks, some of them things I don't know how I never tried before. When you BF into the ceiling it's underneath the lava from the floor above, and I guess either there's no solidness to the ceiling or the hitbox of the lava goes through and it bounces you up into there. This skips a section of the factory, and having to ride the wheel platform across the pit. I did it again to show that you could also do it on the other side to skip straight to outside and skip almost all those blocks.
How much time this saves depends on where the platform that you run onto before the BF is in its cycle. If it is just getting to the top and you can get to the far left corner (with the proper angle you can do it in one damage boost), then this trick saves about 10.5 seconds. However if you just miss the platform, then it can take up to 12.5 seconds for it to come back up high enough to be able to touch the lava above. So generally if you just barely missed the platform at its peak, just take normal route, or do it from the ground before the platform and do some extra damage boosts (or go onto the conveyor belt and wait out the wall blocks).
Potential time save: up to 10.5 seconds, if platform's in bad spot, probably as much as 5 seconds faster.
