Original YTMND:
Do a barrel roll!

Worthy Spinoffs:

The phrase Do a Barrel Roll! comes from the 1997 Nintendo flying simulator/space combat game Starfox 64. It was a phrase uttered by one of the character's main wingmen, Peppy Hare, in the beginning stages of the game. The fad may have been started by members from the Life, Universe, and Everything board on GameFAQs.

The fad was one of the earlier fads, and became popular quickly. Most sites would play around with his quote, putting it into various situations.

Even outside YTMND, Peppy is a fairly common target for parodies because of the nonsensical phrases he utters and because of his ludicrous accent. Other phrases include:

  • To barrel roll, press Z or R twice!
  • Try a somersault!
  • Use bombs wisely!
  • Try hovering!
  • Use the boost to get through!
  • Use the brake!
  • Don't mess up that Arwing!
  • Try a U-turn!
