	Just before the raft/log/whatever starts to go over the falls, take
a running jump to the platform.

	My technique is to wait until I'm halfway across the bottom, then
kill the mutant.  This will give me time to jump over before the next one
comes out.  Then, I try to get as far back from the front edge as I can, and
just as the raft approaches the falls, I make a running jump for it.

	Usually works.

I never reached that level.  What happens if you miss the raft?  I don't think
I like arcade games...  |b-)
