Whimps appear as items in Mario Kart Silver. Once thrown, the Whimp will stand still, and act as a wall, making players stop when they hit him. They will also sometimes walk around. Hitting a Whimp three times, will cause them to crumble and disappear. Whimps also do not like other stationary items, such as bananas, and will occasionally throw nearby stationary items at oncoming racers. They appear as rare items that can be obtained in first, second, third or fourth.
