Managed to do it with Toad. Is he faster that Luigi? Non sure, but his short jump makes it easier to kill the birdo and get onto the crystal in one jump.

Toad is the fastest runner. He's even faster when carrying a heavy object like an enemy, POW Block, ripe vegetable than he is carrying nothing or an unripe vegetable.

World 4-2 Birdo is easier than this one. For this however, use Toad. Go in and out of cave at top until you get 5 cherries for star to appear, then wait for star to float as far as it can to the right before you grab it. Then run like heck to Birdo.

im havibng trouble getting this one the closest cherry is next to that sniffet right?

Yeah. It helps to be carrying an enemy (like the Snifit or Ninji) while holding B before picking up the star since Toad is faster when he's carrying an enemy, POW or mushroom block or a ripe vegetable (toss it before entering the door though).

This is super tight, but Kdecks and them are right. Use Toad, and you basically need to jump at birdo, kill him, and grab the crystal ball as in one fluid motion.

You can do this one with Mario too.
