It's required if you want to get to Yoshi on top of the castle without finishing the game first. I've been able to jump off of the wall but don't recall ever actually getting on top of the castle
For you and others that don't know, you need perfect timing on the 3 jump thing (you know the second jump in a row, you jump a little higher, and the third in a row you jump more high and do a flip or something. You need to jump onto the hillside a bit (I think) then your second jump needs to be towards the corner of the wall and the third jump off of the wall towards the castle roof.
Normally you will just finish the game and the cannon will open up on that screen and you just shoot onto the roof... but the ton of extra lives you get are pretty much useless at that point.
Just broke my personal record for number of consecutive days without dying!
