Oh man, I remenber the first time I watched this video. This was an April Fools prank from 2010.
I remenber how back in the day I had NO idea what was going on. Now that I'm a JoJo fan? It all makes sense.
Gotta love Super Mario Bros. Z

EDIT: "Hold on a sec. JoJo references in 2010? I thought JoJo was virtually unknown here in the west (except for Italy and France) before the 2012 anime became a thing?"
It was! However, the thing is that back then no one knew the TRUE origin of this meme. You see, this meme was started by a flash animation created by a Japanese user.

Obviously this animation was really fucking popular in the West. The point here is that in the West NOBODY knew who these characters are or where do they come from. They just thought it was a weird animation and that "haha, funny roadroller crushing people".
