Trivia section states 'Mario wearing lead-weighted boots.' This has no relevance to the gunboats. It was a statement of Valve's liking to change things when something goes awry in their gaming ventures. In this Mario instance, Mario's not being able to jump. Trivia piece is irrelevant. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by Gray (talk) • contribs)
