The Curious Staircase of Benjamin B

Weird but

was helpful

@HackedUp How was it helpful? It's only meant to prevent an easier solution.

Weird combination of tricks and very curious indeed, thanks!

@Block builder I am with @HackedUp, I also used the "zap":

high the zap, climb the stair with B, go down again but stop him in the middle of the stair, lower the zap and clausthrophobia (or pressing force) will do the rest I think.

@chemi Whatever I try, I get zapped.

Spoiler: Intended solution

With the device underneath you rotate a metal stairs in the middle, and push it up to the stone stairs in the middle. Depending on the rotation of the metal stairs, you can springboard to only 1 side, as during that trick B considers himself momentarily on the block below the stone stairs.

The zapper is in place so you can't springboard with the device lowered. If there is no block directly below the stone stairs, B can springboard in all directions as there is nothing that tells him which way he can't go. (I almost forgot this when making the level so the last thing I did was adding the zapper).

Nice observation! I needed a little peek at the movie but figured it out after seeing the one move. Thanks

I had a hard time on this, but I've finally beat it. I did need the movie though. Nice level!

I just love it! It was actually easy for me as I easily figured out what to do (without watching the movie at first). The idea is clever. The design is cool, especially the water effect. For me, it was a combination of logic and ability... I don't know if everyone agrees.
I like how it made me scratch my head when I was like "Why just can't I do sideways springboard stair?!" And when I found out the solution I feel so smart. And it also made feel like a fool.
Curious staircase, indeed.
Btw, the level is not lengthy but the title is.

I love the originality of this level!!! Funny and pretty straightforward once you see what to do!!! Excellent job and thanks for sharing @Block builder
