Game Theory: How DEADLY Is Donkey Kong’s Punch?

MatPat tackles one of Smash’s most iconic moves—Donkey Kong’s mighty punch—and brings it back in the new Donkey Kong Bananza to see just how much damage it could do in the real world. He crunches the physics, in-game stats and hypothetical IRL equivalents to reveal exactly how devastating DK’s uppercut really is.

Along the way you’ll catch sponsor shout-outs for Boot.Dev (grab 25% off with code “THEGAMETHEORISTS”), a nod to their new Theorywear merch drop, plus an Epidemic Sound plug for royalty-free tunes. Brace yourself—this punch packs a wallop you won’t believe!
