You need to be invincible to survive it.  Ok, remember the last time you won 
that level?  You end up in a room that's all black with tons of guys in it, 
all attacking you at once from all sides.  And you invariably die after a 
few seconds, no matter how hard you try.  Well, when you stepped on that 
little pentagram on the platform at the top of the stairs, that's where you 
teleported.  The only way to get in there without teleporting in is to turn 
off clipping.  I guess the reason you die within a few seconds is that the 
room is evil or something, kind of like the blue circle areas in the later 
episodes.  I'm assuming that it's id's way of guaranteeing that anybody 
finishing the level is _dead_ so they can do the episode ending.
