    https://youtu.be/v9ws_aTs9Xs not the most efficient way, but this guy shows how to get it

    How is it not efficient: you can get on the first balcony from upstairs, and on the second one without the somersault. To be fair, the guy in the video was just messing around, not getting this achievement in particular.

    Did it the not-efficient way, though useful if the stairs aren't raised yet. https://clips.twitch.tv/SuspiciousFastCheeseKreygasm

    Double jump and kick are sufficient.

    Itll take you a few tries but a well placed wall jump is all you need for this one.

    se puede subir desde la planta de arriba y solo saltar a la izauierda y no necesitas hacer el salto voltereta.también en la pared de enfrente del piano y es más fácil

    I did it with a Double jump and kick, thanks fe3001

    very easy to do not sure why people are saying its inefficient, from the piano room, lure the Piano away from the wall with the Red Coin, do a jump up and wall kick onto the balcony above you, then get a run up and double (or triple) jump your way across and dive at the same time (i t worked for me diving across the gap)
    LaudatePanem 19 Feb 2024 21:48
    wait i just realised, you dont even have to do the Piano wall jump, just go up the stairs from the main hall, go to the doors on the left and youll be in the room above the piano, then just jump and dive/kick over xD

    EZ. Double Jump then a AirKick..
    poudigne 22 Jul 2024 02:12
    I tried for 20min the wall kick trick... Thanks @TunebaGamer Double Jump + air kick did it first try. so easy.

    Christ this took me far too long. Double jump & kick from the left hand corner ended up doing it.
