(1) Wallkick up to where the star is but make sure to get up on the opposite site of the star so the camera angle is slightly different (otherwise you will have to perform this semi-blindly when doing the setup).
(2) Change the camera to point the direction it did in this video and stay in zoomed out Lakitu cam the entire time. Ledgegrab the left side of the platform you're standing on, then walk down and ledgegrab the bottom side.
(3) Do 10 punches.
(4) Longjump to the right and keep holding right the entire time until you are inside the shaft.
(5) Go neutral once you are in the shaft, then press C-Left and turn the camera that way. Then press up until you hit the lava again and immediately go neutral once you do.
(6) After hitting the lava, do not do anything until you're out of the shaft.

This is a segmented walkthrough, aka it uses savestates so unnecessary mistakes/deaths are not included.
Note: This is a reupload because I actually discovered 2 more stars to be possible after I uploaded the playthrough initially")

IMPORTANT NOTE: This ROM had a very slight edit done by me and is therefore not quite the equal to the original. The spinning heart at 8:10 was added by me to make this star possible in the first place. From how it seems, there is no way to collect this star without this edit. If this spinning heart wasnt there, you would have to take two lava bounces to enter the tower (as you can see at the beginning of this star), and even with two bounces its already somewhat tight to make. Eventually, this will make you have 2 HP at the top of the tower but you need 5 HP to survive the fall onto the coin box, which I see no other way to achieve besides adding a spinning heart or even more coins, which would be counterproductive concerning the challenge of collecting 100 coins and the idea of only having exactly 100 coins in the level. I dont think this change is very advantageous in any way, of course it allows for easier health management but the hack is generally so hard that the spinning heart hardly does anything to the difficulty, its only a real difference for the red coin star anyway. Better have a slightly easier possible star than a slighty harder but entirely impossible star.")
