Default Old Mill and Escape with the Iris shortcuts

Hello.

I accidentally discovered a couple of shortcuts for the Old Mill and Escape with the Iris levels.

Perform this jump to skip the whole sea monster area in the Old Mill:


Perform this jump to skip the incinerator area in Escape with the Iris:


Both are pretty difficult, but doable.

Good luck!

With that first jump I've seen it being done a lot, however, I've never understood the specifics on how to activate it. Can anyone explain it to me, please?

It's slideable on both sides; if you jump a bit over the ridge and hold down jump, she will perform some sort of a double jump. You also have to hold down right at some point, since the 3 points are not collinear. It's tricky, but after some tries, you will eventually succeed.

Before posting, I searched the TR5 forum. The only shortcuts I found were for Gallows Tree and the rope area in the Old Mill.

I used to jump inside the building with the final switch from one of it's corners. It took me quite some time to find out the official way of playing the level.
