'''Behind Chain Chomp's Gate''' is the sixth and final mission of [[Bob-omb Battlefield]]. To complete it, Mario must ground-pound the post guarded by the Chain Chomp three times so the Chain Chomp breaks the gate guarding the [[Power Star]].

A Death Star Glitch can be done on this star to skip the star grabbing animation.<ref>[https://youtu.be/EFISdYajCpU?t=7 "SM64 <nowiki>[TAS]</nowiki> - Behind Chain Chomp's Gate (10"43)" by Plush]</ref>

==A Button Challenge==

This star can be done in 0 A presses and can also be done RTA<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdntrtJmwLs “(RTABC) Behind Chain Chomp's Gate - 0x A Presses” by Bad_Boot]</ref>, but is very difficult to do.  The star is too high to get using a dive recover, so instead 2 [[Goomba]] [[Cloning|Clones]] are used. Mario can use a cork box to clip inside the gate. The first problem is that it is impossible to clone a goomba inside the gate, so instead mario places the [[Cork Box]] at the desired location of a goomba clone. Mario can easily leave the gate as the gate is a one-sided wall. Mario uses the [[Hat in Hand]] glitch to release a goomba clone at the location of the box, since that’s where the [[HOLP]] is at. Mario then repeats this process with the 2nd goomba, and finally heads in and uses the 2 goomba bounces to reach the star.
