Mario's REAL Timeline ►► bit.ly/2cSzVQ8
At the end of this year's Olympics in Rio, we were all SHOCKED to see the Prime Minister of Japan jump out of a human-sized green pipe, dressed as Mario, and declare that the 2020 Olympics will be in Japan! His announcemenet made me wonder, just how would good old Mario fare at the Olympics? It seems like he'd crush the competition, but science might have something else to say about it. So does Mario take home the gold, or does he unexpectedly not even make it into the winner's circle?

Olympics 2020: Tokyo!! Mario!! Coronavirus: I’m about to end this man’s whole career
Waaa
Came here to say this lok
One year later.
@Liam Bonnice waaa
Ye
Actually, Mario and Luigi would be competing in the MEN's long jump and triple jump, so peach wouldn't be able to deny Luigi the Gold medal.
that is a valid point
good point
Lol, true dat! Like this so matpat sees!
True
Peach would dominate in the women's jumping competitions though!
“The 2020 summer games cannot come soon enough.”
2020: are you sure about that
It only makes it more true in some ways
@@Tzar1 good point
Lol
I was laughing so hard when he said that
But I was so sad at the same time
"2020s summer games cannot come soon enough"
Coronavirus "yes they can"
So frickn true
Ohhhg current events humour
Yup
Yea
That response implies the olympics came TOO soon
Does he forget Bowser can literally jump from planets
Own Opinions
Hol en
Like Yoshi, PROFILED.
oof
He's not a human. Disqualified.
*WHAT*
At least Mario isn't 10ft tall
Like Wario.
I'll never forget MatPat, Never.
First world problems.
what about waliweegee, WAH HAH HEEEEEEEEEEEE!
JIF????????
Wow!!!!!!!!!!'
wow
matpat: 2020 summer olympics can't come soon enough
covid-19: stupid, I'm not gonna let you get the chance
Poor pat
*CURRENT EVENTS HUMOR!*
STOPID M NOT GON' LET YA GIT DA CHENCE
No the Covid said: im about to end this mans whole carrier
Finally time to be done waiting matpat.
It’s 2020
Edit: spoke too soon

The corona virus ruined the olimpics
Actually no כליל שלו אלקין
ya we might have to wait more
Something tells me that its peach's dress that allows her to float and she most likely wouldn't be allowed to wear a dress
Its her crown, and as seen by the "witcher" in the Rio Olympics this year accessory's are allowed.
Wouldn't that make it performance enhancing though?
+Lolwutman6
No, its magic. Namely "heart power".
Yep her dress makes her float and she'll have to wear her jumpsuit soo Mario would get 2nd
idk id be more concerned over the fact that there is men's and women's sports and
YOU FORGOT ONE FACT!
Princess Peach's ability comes from her *dress* , which she doesn't wear in *any* sport game
And men and women compete seprate
And in the sports games you can be most the charictors from Mario bros, this is not based on fairness, you would then have yoshi and browser in there, other charictors from Mario bros as well, where's wario or waluagi
Also anything performance enhancing is illegal in the Olympics.
Not at all, she can float without her dress.
When she uses the Superbell, Boomerang and Superleaf power ups she doesn't wear a dress and still can float.
@@Quinhala11 I tend to think it's the designer trying to give Peach both powers... But I base myself on SMB2. SM3DL and SM3DW are just Super Mario Bros in 3d imo, and didn't have as much think-through as SMB, SMW, SM64, SMS, SMG, and SMO
man, Luigi has got the plunger in his pants, the money, AAAAAAND Olympic gold medals!
Only courage to go. But he kinda has that.
As well as the popularity he deserves.
“2020’s summer games cannot come soon enough”
**laughs in coronavirus**
But....but... triple jump is a hop, skip then a jump
It’s also up, down, left, right, left, right, down, start
Yuh, wah, WAHOO
Mlp
@@sifisme3995 u got it wrong it is up up down down left right left right b a
@@electrifiedgaming4086 okay i'm not sure but Wreck It Ralph?
Mario wouldn't get 3 bronze medals, he would get 3 silver. The reasoning is quite simple: Peach is a girl. Men and woman can't compete together, they have to compete in separate events.
Erin Rowe there is still yoshi
Besides if men and women did compete together Mario still would have 3 silver metals because Peach is flying/floating for a few seconds.
Jumping far not floating far
Colin MoonEyes yoshi would likely be in another category if even in the Olympics at all
Kaeden Ngai-Natsuhara he would be in the dinosaur olympics
Mat: the 2020s can’t come soon enough
Everyone in 2020: *insert are you sure about that*
2021
4:30 That one didn't age quite so well.
😞
Mario would still get 2nd place, because peach would be competing in the women's long jump, not the men's.
Ooh good point
deym bro....
True. Clever thinking.
what about waluigi, he is a monsrer...
She also would be DQ'ed for using her dress to increase her jump length
but MatPat, you are forgetting something Important
in Mario 64 if you build up speed for 12 HOURS, you can make mario jump Miles and Miles more the his simple jump,
but first... we need to talk about parallel universes....
You win. Get this man to the top.
Well, you don't have 12 hours to build speed in the olympics, Just a few Seconds...
I love you.
It is good to see a fellow enlightened scholar of Super Mario 64.
What a High Quality comment!
Coronavirus in 2020: I’m about to ruin this whole man’s career.
"When the 2020 games happen"
Me: Keep telling yourself that.
MatPat:Mario is just average at best
Me: Uhhhhh yeah sure 3 OLYMPIC BRONZE MEDALS IS AVERAGE
I think he meant Average in mushroom kingdom.
@@MCG55SS Again: 3 OLYMPIC BRONZE MEDALS
@@BintonGaming that's not hard to accomplish in the mushroom kingdom soo
@Waluijo Jumping parallel universes isn't a sport.
Unless Mario ends up in one where it is, of course.
Pathetic.
My Maths teacher showed this to my class when we finished all the content we needed to learn a lesson early. It has, since, become my favourite video on this entire platform.
Also, congrats on managing to make a class of 30 moody teenagers laugh
MOODY?! GROWWWWLLL!!!! DANGIT I HATE YOU I HATE EVERYONE SPEAK FOR YOURSELF DANGIT AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH (lol)
WAIT WHAAAAAAT??????
Funny enough, im using this video to help me with a maths project about the near exact premise!
MatPat 4:37: „2020 Summer Games could not come soon enough!”
Me in 2020: You don’t know what I know...
This hits different after waiting 4 years for this Olympics only for them to be delayed an entire year
"There's a funny jif."
Jif?
JIF?
JIF?!
JIF!?!?!?!?!?!?!
CappuccinoGuil Ikr it is gif not jif
Lps Blossoms MATPAT HAS FORSAKEN US!!!
jif
jif
It stands for jraphics Interchange Format.
But...
Peach wouldnt use a DRESS to jump in the olympics, right? Like, seriously.
she never uses a dress in the olympic games series either
ShatteredMC in super Mario 3d world, she wears a cat suit and yet she still hovers
Sagal137
It's not her dress that lets her hover, she cheats by using magic.
i never said that it's her dress that lets her hover. Look again at what I wrote
She just uses what's called her "Wish power".
“2020s summer games cannot come soon enough”
When I tell you I nearly cried-
MatPat: 2020 Olyimpics could not come soon enough.
Coronavirus: I’m about to end this mans career
You said gifs as "jifs"....
almost closed the window
Fourleafclov that is how it's said
Well, actually, I suppose it depends on the person. Either way is correct, I suppose.
DragonFace Gaming Even if either way is correct, it hurts to hear it like { JIF }
I say it interchangeably sometimes I say jif and sometimes I say gif
I just pronounce them 'jeff'
Luigi: *DOES THIS LOOK LIKE THE FACE OF MERCY*
“Horse... Prancer”
Equestrians are under appreciated
Oh, look what I just found.
It's the goddess herself.

@@PenSteel no
11:38 he wouldn’t, because his bones and muscles would’ve adapted to the strong gravity
Nice Pfp
MatPat: *makes vid of community tab*
Also MatPat: *doesnt post on it since 8 months ago*
Galactic Pickles :3 yup, I’m reading this 5 months after but he hasn’t used in a month.
For anyone looking to skip to the main video on mobile, link is in the description...or just skip to 2:29!
Thanks
5 min late!
if he has a hazmat suit then sure
Thanks matt!
You the real MVPs!
9:48 OBVIOUSLY WE ARE! AND IF YOU DON'T CONSIDER US HUMANS NO PIZZA FOR YA!!!
I just imagined Mario jumping through my roof because I have a short ceiling
"Did I win?" - Princess Peach
But only Mario is going to the Olympics! Not Luigi or peach!!!!!!
Godzila wars 2000
I’m pretty sure no one said that it was just Mario competing though...
no, u dont. nooo u dont🙂
Well when it was revealed that Mario was going to be in the Olympics,Luigi or peach weren't shown.
It's 👏 a 👏joke
Oh no Luigi is gonna get his foot crushed again
I get it it’s from the tennis game
@MAK Tsz Him MAK Tsz Him well now upside now e wont
Finally a comment not about Coronavirus
Lol
MatPat: "The 2020 summer games cannot come soon enough"
Me: (2020)
Matpat: I love, love the olympics
Me: Well I can 110% relate
Well, Luigi would still get gold and Mario silver because female and male jumping are two seperate categories. So both Peach and Luigi end up with gold medals :)
Clara Breda good Point.
Clara Breda true
17:57. Lmao. "Because he's a DINOSAUR" had me dying
Random Gamer until
Random Gamer oj
Mat: "2020 summer Olympics can't come soon enough."
Corona: *Really now?*
Game Theory: He's super Mario therefore his strengths are amplified
wouldn't Mario get silver and luigi & Peach, gold due to the fact that they separate men and women.
Pretty sure if a woman can exceed a gold metalist male she deserves to gold metals.
DawsonCat6252//(^._.^) i'm not saying that she doesn't deserved her gold if just saying she would have three women's jumping medals.
Women's and men's in the Olympics are separated. (So like Long jump for men medalists is different from long jump for woman medalists.)
medals*
I think the men devision is open for women if they are good enough.
ITS LIKE LAKITU'S FILMING THE HUNGER GAMES WITH HOW SHAKEY HIS CAMERA IS ALL THE TIME!!!
that made me die laughing X'D
Seriously, Michael Bay Should have hired Lakitu as his cameraman.
I know that feel. Doing anything is difficult with that camera.
“Peach would win because of her glide.”
You can’t wear dresses there.
I doubt that was because of her dress lmao
@@Gameboy-2007-yt it is her dress gives her that ability just pay attention to every games saying peach is a better jumper because of her umbrella is like saying someone driving a car is faster than someone running but its only cause of the car
Hearing him explain how the community tab works is so innocent for some reason
What about Waluigi? I mean he can swim in the air, allowing him to basically fly. Sure it's cheating but it doesn't matter.
finally waluigi gets the recognition he deserves
Snipper Joey EVERYBODY CHEATING BUT HIM!!!
MissingNO 000 Waddling your feet in the air isn't cheating.
if any one is cheating peach is she is using her dress to hover
GDWU 64755 Totally. Also by competing alongsides the males.
14:20 That was a running long jump. You can't add three running long jumps to get a triple jump.
But still, Peach would win
Random Person Definitely not debating that.
I'm pretty sure Mario can instantly long jump the moment he lands, making it possible.
The problem is that the triple jump isn't just three jump: it's often called the "Hop, Skip, and Jump." The second jump is from the same leg you land on, which makes it look like a skip.
I always thought the second one was called step :/
But yeah, I was kinda torn between facepalming and finding it cute how MatPat naively just chained three full jumps together. Also to consider that you have a limited area where you can perform your jump from first to last jump.
This video, genuinely, has my favorite music library out of them all, starting with the banger that is the Olympic track, and the electro beat when starting to talk about Mario’s jumps, it’s so good.
2020 Olympics?
COVID-19: Yeah, right.
“Would Mario win olympics? You’d be surprised”
*triples most world records*
Uh no, that’s is what I expected
"if there's a funny jif" well that's it unsub
:'(
Well, it _is_ the original intended pronunciation, so you can't say it's completely wrong to say it that way
+ITR it doesn't matter. the guy who made it was a programmer, not a linguist.
***** I didn't say the original is correct, I'm saying it's stupid to hate somebody for thinking one is correct.
Personally I think both pronouncing it /dʒɪf/ and /ɡɪf/ are okay :-P
sekireialpha A lot of words weren't made by linguists, I don't really see your point...?
“I can’t wait for the 2020 olympics”
That quote didn’t age so well
This is one of my favorite game theories and man I forgot this was uploaded in 2016 how time flies
I wish I could see the jump height and the other stuff in odyessy but the game wasn't out yet
When Mat’s talking about his love for the olympics I immediately think of fat pat eating chips and drinking Diet Coke
AwesomeYoshi64 lol
AwesomeYoshi64
Ddddd
WAIT WAIT WAIT
What about Bowser!? You knock him off the platform in 64 and he can jump back up all the way from the abyss!
Bowser gets disqualified along with yoshi. They aren't human.
That's racist!!!!! *Barfs*
*ding*
Fernando Pulido It's not racist at all. They're not human therefore they cannot qualify for HUMAN olympics. It wouldn't be fair to the other competitors.
Great Duck
The Germans said the same thing about the Jews and blacks. For shame.
2020 Summer Olympics:I can't escape the coronavirus in a over 3 year old video
I was stuck in so many of Austin's videos and I'm so relived I heard MatPat's voice again
Wouldn't Mario still place Silver since males and females don't compete against each other...?
I think matpat is speaking in terms of world record setting.
Great Duck, He says in the title, Would Super Mario Win the Olympics. Olympics.
EnforcerOfTheGalaxy I mean in that context (the jump records) he was merely saying who would do best not who would win. Luigi besting Mario already asserted that Mario wouldn't win the olympics. Peach was just a minor afterthought.
Peaches hover ability won't apply in the Olympics because in the Olympic games she has a skin tight suit and she hovers because of her dress
Dorian Camacho
You assume that it's cause of the dress.
No offense Mat but I'm glad quadruple jump isn't a thing cause then you'd be training for the Olympics and not making theory videos
That would be HORRIBLE... Then again, Many Worlds theory, anyone?
No? No "Pokemon Multiverse" theory? No "Zelda timeline be wrong?" theory?
DeadlyVSGaming m
4:08 - Watching this clip now is extremely bittersweet.
MatPat: Toyko 2020 can't come fast enough!
Jan 2020: Oh you poor sweet summer child.
They do accept a quadruple jump... but it’s in figure skating
rip gt
99th like
I bet mat pat would make a beautiful figure skater especially in those pretty silver and green dresses
Matpat should do a theory on shy guys
Yeah. What are they?
Pirate Bear and
you dont what they are? they the little guys with masks and red clothing😁
Pirate Bear Same, along with the Dark Star, that one is a little....strange
Pirate Bear hi
Who’s watching this in 2020 and is like “it’s canceled so um I’m sorry gamers”
Everybody:Partying
Coronavirus: opens the door
Everybody:😰😰😰😰😰
matpat, you would get gold in the Olympics for:
-just blowing my mind
-and being hilarious
Vibha Srinivas lol
and quadruple jump.
+Vibha Srinivas Mind Blowing Theories, Hilarious okay I have some bad theories from him. [ -Ness- Sans Impression] here we go. Mario is Mental,Link is Dead,Rosalina's Parents (His Luigi and Peach Fan Fiction), and Sans is Ness. I didn't even talk about the Film Theory Bullshit and Clickbait.
+Emperor Faust, Sans is Ness and Mario is Mental are the most bullshit and completely awful theories I have ever heard this is why I unsubscribed a long time ago.
yoe
It appears Mario breaks his arm when he hits the block #NewGameTheory
Matpat: I can't wait for the 2020 Olympics
2020: *coughs in Coronavirus*
matpat: cool new community tab!!
* clicks on community *
community tab: last post is 5 months old!
Thank god we learned kinetic energy in science class so I could understand all the gravity science. I was wrong... what we learn in school does have a use xD
ripa9 😂
Robert Li 🖤🖤
Robert Li just to understand matts amazing videos tbh!😂
shy guys are the red guys with white masks. In a video this guy says ther dream demons. serch em on google
this is a good replay like if your watching in 2027

WAAALEWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
4:37 : "2020's summer games, could not come soon enough"
Coronavirus: Hey that's a great idea!
Him talking about the community tab is hilarious.
Actually triple jump is a hop skip and a jump if you do that you will be disqualified
I thought I was the only one who noticed that mistake
Exactly!!
im not sure why he didn't use the move NAMED triple jump from 64, and your right, mario has to crouch to long jump, which i don't think would be legal
Ty. Was looking for this.
The triple jump has appeared in all 3D Super Mario games.
Dang. This is more interesting than the actual Olympics...
NOTHING is more interesting than the real Olympics!
General Kenobi!
Obi-Wan Kenobi? What?
I like how he isnt even using the community tab now.
I love you're videos! I've always wondered what's up with the death areas in the games and if there's some secret there hiding
Matpat...
diet coke olimpics are waiting for you
Yes
Olympics
I'm sorry did you say 'jif' instead of 'gif'?
yes he did
Like how the creators said it's pronounced.
Boi, g stands for graphics in the acronym. You don't pronounce it "jraphics". Think of the word gift. Take the t off.
Giraffe. Not everything with a g is pronounced "guh". Plus it's an acronym, and the creator can choose how it's pronounced
The creators said it was pronounced 'jif' so there is no argument on how it should be pronounced. Beside if we going to pronounce the aconryms letters as the words the represent Laser would be pronounced "lah-sear" and not "lay-zur" since Laser stands for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radation. And Scuba be pronounced "Skuh-buh" instead of "Skoo-buh" since it means Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus.
Nice to revisit this episode now that it's so much closer to the 2020 Olympics! Honestly I kinda forgot about the Mario cameo until it was mentioned in the opening lol
Watching this episode today... "They didn't know!"
"jif," man? Really?
You know better than that.
That's how it's pronounced
it's gif. with a g.
The creator of said file format said that 'jif' is how you actually pronounce it, so....
It stands for Graphics Interchange Format.
He's an idiot even if he did invent it.
Look up the video of him getting roasted for saying it.
Man the jraphics on this jame are jreat!
Durp.
I'm Italian but I love those jokes about my country even if they are false.
Subed!
No you are russians
do you eat cheese or spaghetti everyday in italy??
@@TearDaTaco almost, here in Italy pasta is an essential food and those stereotypes about eating it everyday are not too far off from reality, sure, we eat other things but pasta is one of the most popular foods, eaten mostly at lunch rather than dinner
@@IMPERATOR_AVGVSTVS what about the cheese and pizza? (you're the creator of pizza don't forget that)
@@TearDaTaco cheese is very utilized in Italian cuisine, since there are a lot of dishes that use it, for example it's used on a lot of types of pasta to enhance the flavor, but please, if there's a type of pasta that doesn't want cheese, especially Parmesan, is spaghetti with clams, for us it feels like eating a hot-dog for breakfast. Another fairly famous Italian meal that requires cheese is Caprese, wich usually is mozzarella cheese accompanied by tomatoes. Cheese is also heavily used on pizza, for it's nice texture that goes really well with both types of pizza, yes, there are 2 types of pizza: the Roman pizza and the Neapolitan pizza, the difference is in the consistency: Roman pizza is much more crunchy than the soft Neapolitan one, but, even if pizza is delicious, we don't eat it very often, since it's a very "heavy" food, it's full of carbohydrates and it fills you up really quickly and it isn't very healthy, so we don't eat it all that much, on average once a week or once a month
8:17 First and only apearance?He has that move in 3d world!
Technically, he’s not wrong because that was the first and only apprence if the 2d super jump. By your standards, odessy also qualifies
What about the Thwomp for the jumps btw Thwomp is the sone thing that goes in your direction when you’re in a special direction.
WHY DO SHY GUY'S WEAR MASKS AND BASICALLY COVER THEIR WHOLE BODY?
Please make a theory.
**original idea by me, people who like or comment agree, so also give them credit**
Wolfie Nightcore but seriously I just think it might be preference?
But it would be interesting to know the species?
Wolfie Nightcore I always thought they were ghosts who wore masks like no face but now that I'm older that makes less sense
Shy guys are shy. Really, really shy.
Wolfie Nightcore agree
Because the creators of Doki Doki Panic were high on drugs and decided to put masks on some dwarves.
So... the Community Tab is just the Discussion Tab with more bells and whistles?
it's for mobile
Exactly.
Atleast they gave us something instead of removing of freedom *cough*cough* (CZcams's guidelines)
***** Oh, so *less* bells and whistles.
Yep, but hey, it sorta works.

I love how Matpat actually answers questions like this
11:29
“Short guy, slightly overweight”
Mario: *TRIGGERED*
That moment when you realize MARIO is taller then you when you're 17
That moment when *I* realized I was half a foot smaller then Mario and I'm 11
I'm shorter then Mario and I'm 69
You are short as all get out! I want 5'5 when I was 12!
y'all midgets xddddd
no offence, height doesn't matter

aah thx pal
bullet bill has the longest jump, infinite.
So does thwomp, except he doesn't need a canon!
Yeah but bullet bill can't do a triple jump. Boo on the other hand can do any direction and can go infinitely and can kinda touch the ground
boo can go through objects to. the ghosts from luigi's mansion 1 + 2 have all of these advantages plus most of them aren't afraid of being seen
Bullet Bills don't jump though. They fly
So does everything in space, which is everything.
