In ''Super Mario World'', Amazing Flyin' Hammer Brothers are first encountered in [[Donut Plains 4]]. They hover around on a platform composed of two gray [[Rotating Block]]s with wings on each side that swings back and forth. Amazing Flyin' Hammer Brothers attack by tossing [[hammer]]s from their swooping platform, and can be defeated by various methods, most commonly hitting the platform from below; they can also be defeated with a stomp or [[fireball]], though the hammers make it somewhat difficult to do so without taking damage. When the Amazing Flyin' Hammer Brother is defeated, the flying platform remains on-screen and continues on its original flight path; however, if the platform's rider is somehow defeated before the platform itself begins to move, it instead stays in place.
