Game Theory: How DEADLY Is Donkey Kong’s Punch?
MatPat and the Theory Squad dive into Donkey Kong’s signature smash attack—from its jaw-dropping in-game destruction in Smash and Donkey Kong Bananza to a real-world physics breakdown of just how much raw force that gorilla fist could pack. Expect nerdy calculations, hilarious visuals of Donkey Kong flattening everything in his path, and a verdict on whether you’d survive a close-range DK haymaker.
Along the way, they shout out sponsors Boot.Dev and Epidemic Sound, plug exclusive Theorywear merch, and credit writers Tom Robinson and Zaech Stew plus the editing and sound teams. Ultimately, it’s a fun, informal romp through video game lore and science to answer: Is DK’s punch basically a one-hit knockout in real life?
