Kaizo Mario is a homebrew level for Super Mario World that's equal parts evil and genius. My tolerance for frustration isn't nearly high enough to be able to handle this, but for those of you looking for a gaming challenge, there's a link to the ROM below.
You can make your own custom levels for Super Mario World with a graphical level editor called Lunar Magic. You'll need a Windows PC and the original SNES Super Mario World ROM to use it. If you come up with anything you'd like to share, please add it to the comments.

There are tons of neat SMW hacks. My favorites are the "Automatic Mario" hacks, where levels are Rube Goldberg machines built to make Mario go through the level without any input. Some automatic mario hacks are even synchronized to music, here's a video of one of the most impressive of those: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsd96jy3GWY
(There are a lot more great hacks on youtube, follow the related videos)

That level looks brutal, I definitely would not have the patients to complete it. Very clever level design.

Mechanically Separated meat did a good piece on this level and quantum mechanics.
