Notes:

Start by jumping to the invisible ledge.
Use an L-Lock Spring Space Jump to begin, then immediately lock your view again to the lower left.
Jump again and release the lock just before you hit the lava to make it all the way across Twin Fires Tunnel without the Spider Ball and without using the North American First Edition-only Dash Jump method.
