You know the oil spill is a big deal when geeks decide to make a Super Mario oil spill video. The hilarious (albeit inappropriate) video, features a Super Mario tunnel that begins to leak some serious oil. The oil just gets worse and worse until the ocean turns an ugly orange color and all the poor little fishies disappear.
There is one particular hilarious aspect of the video, when corporate gets a 1UP (for all you non Super Mario lovers, that means an extra life) for ruining the ocean. This Super Mario oil spill video is hilariously inappropriate.
