Wii New Super Mario Bros. 1up Trick!

So Ive been playing the New Super Mario Bros on the Wii. Its just like the OG Nes version just more refined and added moves. You still have 2 buttons and the D-pad, but you can do so much with them. We like to get extra lives in level 2-3. Mid ways through there is a pipe up in the air. Go in this pipe and hit the p block and you get six 1ups. Now at the end of this level there is a turtle coming down the stairs before the flag pole. I instantly was reminded of the 1up trick in the Nes Mario Bros. World 3-1 where the 2 turtles are coming down the steps. It looks a little something like this:



Well after many times through 2-3 I finally did it. So if you want a quick way to get 99 men, this is pretty nice. I find standing on the edge of the 3rd step and doing a little jump to start it off works the best.
