Falling block
The falling block hangs on a chain 5.5 m up, from about 1,100 m. When you get within 12 m it drops in just over a third of a second and then lies on the track like a crate.

How to get past it
Do not run under the block while it falls. Afterwards, simply jump over the landed block (1.0 × 0.8 m).
Pro tip
The red marker on the ground shows where the block will land. Plan your jump for that spot.
Common mistake
Jumping too early and flying into the falling block from above.
