Doom level E1M4, Command Control: Quick-exit trick (example 1)

Demonstrates a "trick" in PC Doom/Ultimate Doom level E1M4, Command Control, for accessing the exit in seconds, bypassing most of the level.
This is accomplished by jumping onto a very narrow ledge that is recessed into the walls of a rectangular slime pit, and leads around to the room where the yellow key sits. From there it's a short run to the exit.

The best way to jump over to the ledge is to use a simultaneous combination of Run-forward plus Strafe-sideways. This "strafe running" maneuver will move the player at an odd angle, but yields a bit more speed than normal running.

During actual play it's easy to miss the jump and fall to the slime below... If your health is low, you may want to save your game before attempting the jump.
