An '''instant warp''' is a special [[Surfaces|floor]] that, when passed above, causes Mario to instantly move without interrupting normal gameplay. In the case of '''loading zones''', Mario enters a different area in the level and a different set of objects loads. In the case of the '''endless staircase''', Mario instantly changes position but not area. Because normal gameplay is not interrupted when triggering an instant warp, interesting side effects can occur.

When an instant warp displaces Mario, it moves the camera as well to maintain its position relative to Mario. If the camera is locked and Mario gets displaced a large distance, the camera can enter a PU, causing the Nintendo 64 versions of the game to crash. This is possible by repeatedly displacing Mario using the endless staircase<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9UPeSpZZPw</ref> or the TTM slide<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Be_RbwFWh30</ref>.
