Super Mario 64 Hints
How do I beat Whomp?
1 of 8: You have to stomp on his back three times.
2 of 8: Get up real close to him and when he jumps up, he's about to pounce on you, so move out of the way.
3 of 8: He'll remain on the ground for a few seconds, so there's your chance.
4 of 8: Jump on your back.
5 of 8: But you have to pound on his back.
6 of 8: Use "Pound the Ground" on his back.
7 of 8: You can "Pound the Ground" by jumping and then pressing the "Z" button.
8 of 8: If you're still having trouble, practice on the smaller versions of Whomp on the lower levels.
