Imagine playing Mario Kart with this guy.

[Berd]

Mario is so wholesome and it's nice to see that the voice behind him is even more wholesome

[clutchoutnba]

Just imagine if his friend never told him about that audition. This world will never be the same.

[zayne]

Charles Martinet has completed everybodys childhood

[miranda]

I met Charles Martinet in person and lemme tell you... the man is the nicest and purest person I've ever met

[Mr.Roboto_]

Protect this man. He is a natural treasure.

[BabyLambCreations]

It feels strange watching this with the sad knowledge that Charles Martinet is officially stepping down as the voice of Mario.

But I’d say 32 years as our favorite Italian plumber is amazing on it’s own. Thank you, Charles, for making Mario the icon that he is. Best of luck to you. ❤

this dude is literally the emotion happiness if it had a physical form

[vuxigeck]

Ah, good to see that YouTube can recommend me quality from time to time.

[__babyface]

God bless you Mr. Charles Martinet. You are a very humble man & you are GREATLY rewarded for everything you've done & continue to accomplish because Mario & Luigi will always be on top of the world!

[gracievictor]

Met him at a comic convention a couple of years back. He’s honestly such a sweet person, and he talked to everyone who came up to him like they were old friends. 100/10, would meet again ❤

So I got my Switch signed by Charles at comic con, but he needed a new pen, so I got to stand across of him for 3 minutes awkwardly and they were the three most beautiful minute of my life

[alanwattman]

This guy has the best outlook in life, I wish I could be that happy and contented.

[kushkiller]

It would be fun to play Mario with Mario

[crazyitalianguy]

He is the voice of my childhood, i had no real friends back then, only freaks who made fun of me because i have asperger's. The only way i could feel happy was playng Mario games, i shead some tears of happiness when i hear his voice because is thanks to him that i have some good memories of when i was 4 to 8.

Thanks Charles.

[Mr.Alright]

*_Imagine if he never heard about this audition..._*

[WeegeepieYT]

I actually already listened to his story..
But in French! :D
He's a very nice guy!

[JSkeletonNintendo]

I never get tired of hearing Charles Martinet tell his story on becoming the voice of Mario (& other characters), & just his history with working on all these games for Nintendo! I love it so much :)

[coreymckee]

"I wanna be more like this character"

No no no no dear Charles.. you ARE this character.

[AFCDaniel_]

This guy can’t die, a world without the mario voice actor. It would be horrible.
