Over the years, we've come to accept the fact that Mario is quite the gifted plumber. For example, he's able to leap tall buildings in a single bound... wait, no, that's someone else.

PBS has. Their Space Time channel recently put Mario's kangaroo-like jumping abilities to the test by measuring the height and hang time of his jump in Super Mario World. If you're a science geek (or perhaps a huge Mario fan), you'll love the contents of this video.
