The '''columns'''<ref>''Mario Mania'', page 60.</ref>, also known as '''Pillars'''<ref>''Mario Mania'', page 113.</ref> are large, indestructible columns found in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. These obstacles appear mostly in [[fortress]]es, [[tower]]s, and [[castle]]s, usually hidden in floors, ceilings, or walls. They move slowly for several seconds, revealing themselves, before suddenly smashing almost anything on their way. After several seconds later, columns move slowly back. If the player reaches the door at the end of rooms with columns, but does not enter it, the nearby column will appear to be cut off by the wall.

A column appears in the first volume in the ''Super Mario World'' arc of the [[Super Mario (Kodansha manga)|Kodansha-published ''Mario'' manga]]. While [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] are walking through [[Iggy Koopa]]'s castle in an open room, Mario looks up and tries warning Luigi of a falling column, but it crushes Luigi. Mario then has to toss a crushed Luigi through a window.
