Another method of reaching the Minus World involves Mario breaking two blocks on the ceiling, leaving the one on the far right. He should move to the far left end of the pipe and jump to the right. He doesn't have to duck as he can try to hit the bottom-left portion of the block (without actually destroying the block). This should glitch the game, allowing Mario to get through the pipe and wall, but doing it this way is potentially more difficult and time-intensive.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgohnDkyTZM A video of the glitch performed (without ducking), on YouTube]</ref>

If everything is done properly, Mario will see the three pipes in front of him from the [[Warp Zone]]. If he enters the pipe to the far left or far right, he will find himself in the Minus World. If he goes in the pipe in the middle, it will bring him to World 5-1. If the player makes the brick wall on the far right visible (where the "welcome to the warp zone" message appears), however, the glitch will end.

If he goes in the pipe in the middle, it will bring him to World 5-1. If the player makes the brick wall on the far right visible (where the "welcome to the warp zone" message appears), however, the warp zone will be correctly loaded and the glitch will end.
The reason the middle pipe leads to 5-1 is because the game is loading data from the 4-2 over-the-top warp zone (not the one above the vine) that has only one pipe to 5-1. The area of the other pipes is filled in with Tile '''36''' (the blank tile causing the -1 display), causing it to think it leads to World 36-1, that is, the Minus World.
The reason the middle pipe leads to 5-1 is because the game is loading data from the 4-2 over-the-top warp zone (not the one above the vine) that has only one pipe to 5-1, and does not realise that you are in the 1-2 warp zone until the room is completely loaded, a.k.a the brick wall becomes visible. The other two pipes in that warp zone are blank and registered as '''36''' (the number used for blank tiles in the game), causing the game to lead to World 36 when entering the world, hence, the Minus World.
