<p>In an article that feels absolutely perfect for our ‘random’ tag, and as a great way to wind down on a Friday afternoon, we present to you this rather alarming Toad video.</p>
<p>Before we explain what’s going on (if that’s possible) and before you see it for yourself, note that this little clip has been shared by an <em>official</em> Nintendo account. The video comes from Nintendo’s Line account – an instant messaging app that’s incredibly popular in Japan – and, at first glance, it’s absolutely bonkers.</p>
<p>We’ve shared it for all to see on our Twitter account. Make sure to turn your sound on as you experience Toad enjoying a good foot pressing.</p>

<p>While Toad’s enjoyment levels seem to be creepily off the charts here, watching the video to the end reveals that the person is actually making him do sit-ups, and not whatever you were thinking at first. <em>What a time to be alive.</em></p>
<p>So, we’ll never be able to look at Toad the same way ever again. But how about you? Share your current emotions with us in the comments below.</p>
