cool glitch. I jumped over the 1-1 flagpole once too... but I used the Game Genie!

Looks legit.

Wow! I had no idea this was a problem. I almost did this when I was a kid only without any kind of fancy jump through the sky glitches.

If memory serves: I was pissed that my brother kicked the NES when I was playing. Having to restart back from level one was so infuriating that I was determined to rush through everything, points be damned! In that process, I gained some momentum in about the area where you get the star, hit the brick and bumped a turtle just right and was able to keep going and not quite have the star yet. I jumped up to get it trying to keep moving forward in the process and with my newfound invulnerability I zipped through everything, jumping as often as possible.

The fates were smiling upon me my friends, the last jumps I landed were so lucky that I never stopped that momentum and my final jump was done in possibly the MOST ideal conditions possible. I still had the star, I was coming off another run/jump, and hit probably as close to the edge as is possible without missing it. Although it looked like i cleared the flag, my toe must have been touching it or something b/c it brought me down. In any case, fireworks went off like crazy and the music changed from the ending music to like the music at the beginning of the level. Ahh where is my old NES?

To turn a phrase from the Big Lebowski:

See, this guy, he called himself "The Dude""M-F'er". Now, M-F'er, there's a name no man would self-apply where I come from.
