Jump before the barrel breaks the floor

Manocheese: Removed note about jumping into the hallway after climbing the web with the falling barrels. I'm pretty sure it's faster to just run into the hallway.

-* You can skip some parts of the first few rooms as follows. Do a [[Rayman 2: The Great Escape#Quick Drop|quick drop]] on the corner directly in front of you at the start of the level. This allows you to walk underwater. On the other side of the room, there is a walkway leading to the Globox babies. Jump against the side of the island directly opposite this walkway, then helicopter to start an [[Rayman 2: The Great Escape#Airswim|airswim]]. Swim toward the large sun and keep going forward. You will enter the room with the moving platforms. Swim into the loading zone. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4b_z1dxBwrg Video]

-* You can use the trick above in 100% as well. Get the Lum above the trampoline, then start an airswim as described above. Get the Lum near the switch, then swim to the cage on the other side of the room, destroy it, and grab the Lum. Swim over the wall on your left, then swim down to the [[Rayman 2: The Great Escape#Properties of Water|water plane]] and surface to refill your air. Make sure not to go back in bounds. Dive underneath the floor and swim roughly in the direction of the sun (horizontally). You will end up above the cave with the cage. Shoot the cage and swim low enough to collect the Lums, but not low enough to go back in bounds. Keep swimming forward to reach the room with the moving platforms. Get the Lum under the bridge, then swim to the loading zone. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpZpWwlDcy8 Video]
