About
Mario Steals Your Liver refers to a series of YouTube videos built around the narrative that Mario is coming to attack the viewer and take their liver, sometimes presented as the catchphrase "3 days until Mario steals your liver" alongside a "do you accept?" proposition that cannot be refused. After a short scene of Mario breaking into a house by kicking in a door grew prevalent in the late 2010s, others added videos building on the narrative before and after the incident, spreading further in the early 2020s.
