Real life Donkey Kong proves aspirin and Bengay cream still good to have around

     Things gamers do
What do you get when you mix Donkey Kong and a few guys from Viva La Bam and Jackass? How about a great reenactment video of the game that first started me down the path of blown paychecks and hanging out in front of change machines -- while looking like a crack addict in need of his next fix. 

Disclaimers and better sense aside, this sure looks like a whole lot of fun. They did a great job on the whole thing, and I commend them for staying true to the material. Does Mario reach the princess (while not getting his entrails knocked out of him) and liberate her from the vile grasp of the barrel tossing primate? The suspense is too much!

Sorry Mario, but our Princess is in another gorilla tower. I'm just the cheap slut that follows you around and performs depraved acts in exchange for numerous intoxicants.

He went through all that and he still didn't get anything from her. Not even a kiss! I feel so sorry for Mario.

Wow isn't near enough... that was kinda massive...

Frig, I'd drive hundreds of miles to dress up like Mario ('dats a me!) and climb 5 stories of scaffolding to have a chance to show the princess what's in this tower..

In case the innuendo didn't make it through translation, I want get to know the princess in a biblical way... to hammer her barrel... to climb her towers... to.. (frig, I'm to old for this...)

Sorry.. but that looks lame as hell. I never got the whole 'viva la bam' thing but hey, how much longer till we get the show on Idiocracy with the guy getting hit in the nuts all the time? I weep.

That was funny only for the sheer idiocy of it. The guys looked like buffoons. Still funnier than Bouchedags, though. My piss is funnier than Bouchedags.

Impressive replication of the game, though. Very nice. And I have a princess fetish, so whatever...

@ Sharpless. Never mention that thing again. I've seen funnier funerals then that.

All in all, this clip was funny. Come on, you all wish you had idiot friends that kick you in the balls randomly, no?

Hahaha, that was great.

Normally I'm not too into the Viva La Bam/Jackass-esque stuff, but when it's video game related it hits right at my heart. My old, crusty, larva infested heart.

Might be fun to do if you're completely smashed.

I thought a few bits were funny. I liked the part where he got pushed off the barrels he's sitting on.
