Description
Cryptosporidiosis is a parasitic disease caused by the Cryptosporidium parasite. Inside the body, the aggressive parasite colonize the lining of its host's intestines, resulting in diarrhea, vomiting and weight loss. Around 750,000 cases of Cryptosporidiosis are reported every year, mainly because of how highly contagious it is. Humans can be infected by consuming water or soil that is tainted with contaminated fecal matter, making it one of the most common water-borne illness in the world. Cryptosporidium live in fresh water all over the world, even in chlorinated swimming pools, and is especially harmful to anyone with a weakened immune system, such as those with HIV, pregnant women and young children. In extreme cases, Cryptosporidiosis can be fatal.

Be careful though, the Goo in this test chamber may contain Cryptosporidium parasites.

Easy-medium difficulty funnel-light bridge puzzle. Made for the P2LC "Fourth Symmetry" competition.

This is still a brilliant puzzle: the solution is clever, but simple to do, requires no fast moves and only takes about a minute to execute. However working out what the solution may take a bit longer.

Wow that was quite the adventure. Feels pretty good to solve it!
So many cool tricks I've never used before, quite proud to have figured it out all by my self relatively quickly. This is how I did it:

U need to be at the start point when u get the funnel cube to push the button. To be able to do this I blocked the cube below the light bridge at the funnel. I had a few seconds to shoot the portal at the desired location (behind the red laser thing). When the cube presses the button, shoot a portal on the now available wall below the exit. SHooot it below the lamp and make sure it's the same portal as the one the cube came out of at the laser portal. This way u capture a new cube. Now shoot a portal at the lightbridge and bring ur cube over to the place below the exit. place the cube on the button. Then shoot a lightbridge at the funnel room and walk over. Make sure to stand inside behind the disabled force field and shoot a lighbridge on the lightbridge source place such that u make a lightbrigde right under the cube. This lifts the cube up! Now us the funnel and funnel ur way up, then shoot the lightbridge just on the wall and walk to the exit!

Very cool map. Thumbs up.

Clever use of mechanics. Crossed the bridge and saw what I needed to do with funnel and bridge, but still thought that was very clever. Thumbs up.

Very nice

@LB I found your video very helpful thanks. I found a better way to delay the cube. Combine the light bridge with the funnel and press the cube up against the reverse end of the light bridge. It won't go anywhere until you're on the entrance side and ready to shoot the funnel to the button on the wall disabling the fizzler opposite. Having said that, I haven't watched RectorRocks' playthrough!

Brilliant puzzle, all elements are good, but two parts are sublime! These two elements took me quite a while to crack, but it was worth it for that: ’you sneaky clever ****’ moment. After completing it, I looked at “LB's playthrough” : I did it in almost the same, but by a method that gives you slightly more time – screenshots uploaded to my profile that you (RR) should be able to see. Thank you, thumbs up and favourited
