A viral clip shows Mario and Yoshi switching roles—with Mario being used as Yoshi’s pet.

The video, made by Dorkly, is short (only under a minute long and contains a bit of profanity), but it’s funny nonetheless. “Who’s the player 1 NOW?” the video asks.

It delves into Yoshi’s life of eating just about everything, jumping higher than Mario, and his penchant for falling down pits. The clip also shows what’s at the bottom of those “Super Mario World” levels, and it’s not pretty.

Meanwhile, pranksters created a real-life Mario Kart race at the Westfield Shopping Center in London. The riders include Bowser, Princess Peach, Luigi, Donkey Kong, Yoshi, and Mario.

The race lasted around 10 minutes, and it was done without permission.
