AMB - Mario’s injury!
Mario is chopping firewood when Luigi and others start arguing, distracting him and causing Mario to accidentally injure himself with the axe. After passing out from the pain, he wakes up in the hospital with Luigi explaining what happened. Despite warnings to rest, Mario repeatedly tries to move around, worsening his injury. Eventually, he's put in a full body cast. After some time, he shows signs of improvement and learns it's okay to ask for help. The video ends with Mario still eager to be independent, humorously attempting to get spaghetti from the food court despite his condition.
This is how you get banned from the UFC...
It's pretty uncommon for a fighter to receive a lifetime ban from the UFC. Of course, Paul Daley is a rare exception. During his bout with Josh Koscheck in 2010, Koscheck faked damage after Daley threw an illegal knee, resulting in a point deduction for Daley. Once the fight continued, Koscheck out-wrestled Daley for the majority of the bout, earning a unanimous decision win. However, after the final round concluded, Daley proceeded to sucker-punch Koscheck out of frustration, with the referee immediately restraining him. In response, UFC president Dana White banned Paul Daley from the promotion for life.
