Watch Professional Stunt Men Recreate Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Don't try this at home.

By now you’ve probably called in sick so you can stay home playing Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. But if you can manage to drag yourself away from your Switch for a few minutes, you might enjoy the hilarious video below, in which a group of stuntmen in full costume re-enact fight sequences from the game.

The stunt men featured have worked on an assortment of Marvel Studios films, with Ben Aycrigg, who plays Mario, also being Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s stunt double on The Walking Dead.

The video was directed by Micah Moore, who told Nintendo Life that the stunt performers like to add comic book and video game ideas into their choreography, hence how the video came about. It was filmed at Atlanta Judo Midtown.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has already sold 1.3 million copies in Japan, so needless to say, it’s going to dominate the holiday season. The fighting game also has an impressive score of 93% on Metacritic, so if you haven’t already played it, you should do so immediately.
