Alright, I saw Azen or Anden do this in a match once, and I use it every now and then. All you do, is hang from the edge, then fall down, then jump and press up-b and you will cancel the sing and grab the edge. You can put someone to sleep and do a move quickly before they wake up. You can either rest, or smash them if they're at a high %. This tactic sucks against characters with good range, but if used in moderation, you can catch someone with it occasionally. I don't really know much about jiggs, but when I play her I use the edge as the basis of many of my attacks. I like to fall off and then turn around with a jump and start WOPing them, then grab the edge again and **** like that, so the up-b fits into my strategy every now and then with my constant edging.

You can also use this to do an instant edge hog, similar to yoshi. Run off the edge and do up b. You will grab the edge even though facing the wrong way. The only bad thing about this is it can be hard to do up b without jumping. And if you accidently to neutral b, you die.

also, if you do this against dr Mario or Mario and they cape you, you're toast... i've tried it many times and my friend caped me. it doesn't really turn you around, but it pushes you far enough away that you miss the ledge...
