In Super Mario Bros., Mario and Luigi slide down poles. In the UK Amateur Pole Performer competition, they climbed up them and swung around.

If these dancers look familiar (their names are Bex and Emy), it's because you probably saw them pole dancing as Tomb Raider's Lara Croft. The duo were competing in a UK Amateur pole fitness competition.
