In Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, green trampolines make Mario jump so high he goes offscreen for 6 seconds. By extracting his position values from the code, we can "zoom out" the stage and visualize his actual arc, which reveals just how absurdly high the jump is.

Jump Height: 1186 pixels (5 vertical screens)
Jump Distance: 900 pixels (3.5 horizontal screens)
Jump Duration: 360 frames (6 seconds)

Right now you may not want to feel anything. Maybe you never wanted to feel anything. And...maybe it's not to me you want to speak about these things, but...feel something, you obviously did. Look, you had a beautiful friendship. Maybe more than a friendship. And I envy you.
