The 'Wario Dies' meme typically stems from various internet parodies and edits featuring the iconic Nintendo character meeting an untimely, often absurd end. While Wario has been a staple of the Mario universe for decades, the specific trend gained massive traction through YouTube Poops and social media shitposts, notably the 'Wario Dies in a Car Crash' video. These memes often use distorted audio, dramatic music, and low-quality 3D renders to create a sense of surreal humor. It is widely used to react to unfortunate situations or simply to lean into the chaotic energy that follows the Wario character across the web.
