	By ledge grabbing the stone platform in the middle of the boss fight, Jak is able to clip into the lava without dying. Jak can then let go of the ledge and walk through the lava. If Jak performs any actions other than walking while in the lava, the lava will kill him. There is no known way to consistently perform this version of the skip, with most players citing a 1/4 or 1/5 chance of success.
