The Deep Sea Statue*SPOILERS*

One of the Deep Sea(I forgot its true name unless that is it) stages requires a statue to be pushed into a little thing thing on the floor(hard to explain, go there and you'll know what I'm talking about.) Everytime I try(Thank God I'm saved there,) the statue gets stuck and I can't get behind it. What is the true way to get the statue onto the thing on the floor without it getting stuck and having to start the stage all over again?

I don't think I've had this happen to me, ever. hm.

There's three different routes, and that happens to be the annoying one. Try climbing upward in the first room, or climbing in the 2nd, underwater room.

I usually beat the water up the first few climbable things, but then it catches up to me and it's up to Sonic's chest and I end up not being able to see where I'm going and then I fall, I'm about to die, so I jump off, hurry to the water/fire shield thingy, and I end up taking the statue path.

Period = end of annoying runon sentence

Not to mention I'm saved there, so I need help.
