In ''[[Super Mario World]]'', Lava Lifts are used to help [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] to cross the [[lava]] river. They are only seen in a couple levels where there are levels filled with lava rivers. However, sometimes, [[Blargg]]s will jump out and try to attack Mario or Luigi, so they had to jump to avoid them, then land back on the Lava Lift.
In ''Super Mario World'', Skull Rafts are used to help [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] cross the [[lava]] river. They are found only in [[Vanilla Dome 3]] and a secret area in [[Vanilla Dome 4]], where there are large areas filled with lava rivers. However, sometimes, [[Blargg]]s jump out and try to attack Mario or Luigi, so he must [[jump]] to avoid them, then land back on the Skull Raft.

Skull Rafts, now known as Lava Lifts, reappear in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]''. This appearance is different than in ''Super Mario World''. They are able to move in the air on top of moving in lava. They can be used in all four styles, featuring new sprites for ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', and a 2.5D model for ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. A faster blue variant also exists, and it does not fall off the screen after a couple seconds. The rafts are generally used to follow [[track]]s.
 
====''Super Mario Maker 2''====
Lava Lifts return in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', where the blue ones are now referred to as '''Fast Lava Lifts'''.

In the ''[[Super Mario World (television series)|Super Mario World]]'' television series, a Skull Raft, as it was known in the series, appeared in the episode, "[[Mama Luigi]]". Here, it shows that the Skull Raft is made of both wood and skulls, not just skulls like in the video game. During Luigi's story, Luigi got attacked by a [[Sumo Bro|Fire Sumo]] and fell into the [[Lava Pits]]. However, he landed on a Skull Raft, which saved his life. Unfortunately, he was heading for a lava waterfall, and Luigi and the Skull Raft fell down the waterfall, with Luigi landing on solid ground, where he found [[Baby Yoshi]].
