The mountain wall after it is a portal to a secret [[slide (Super Mario 64)|slide]]. The original version depicts the Fwoosh with a partially transparent body, large eyebrows, closed eyes, and a feline-shaped mouth with a happy expression, while the remake gives it a solid, angrier appearance vaguely resembling a [[Boo]]. In addition, the DS remake grants the Fwoosh the ability to turn around in order to always face the character. | | In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', a single Fwoosh will blow [[Mario]] and [[Mario's Cap|his hat]] off [[Tall Tall Mountain]].
