A blooper is pretty much any mistake, whether it be continuity, a misspoken line or typo, a wrong sound or special effect, some kind of malfunction in the equipment, etc. There are a few specific [[Sub
Can be done in [[Real Life]] or a [[Show Within a Show]].

* Part of the set [[Trash the Set|collapsing]].
* [[Never Work

In the film and television industry, bloopers are not always appreciated: some actors have no problem with having their goofups displayed, while others find the slips embarassing, and ask that blooper reels not be released publicly.
A [[Super
Not to be confused with the squid from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''
{{examples
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* In the last battle of ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'' As, when Vita activates Graf Eisen, Kaiji Tang unintentionally said "SCHWING!" This even made it into the English dub ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVCoN3_EOHU See 1:01, spoilers in link]).
* In the 2001 [[Cyborg 009]] series's London episode, 004 is shown firing a [[Ray Gun]] alongside the other Cyborgs. Problem is, the very first episode had 004 giving the gun in his possession to a disarmed 009 since he didn't need it - the guy ''is'' already a walking arsenal, and he's got pretty effective [[Arm Cannon
* [[Tytania]], episode 2. Up to 11:30, Idris is standing beside Salisch. The scene shifts for a moment, then comes back at 11:45 to show him sitting down while Salisch remains standing. 3 seconds later at 11:48, he's standing again.
* In volume 2 of ''[[Rose of Versailles]]'', Marie's [[Pimped

*** It was even carried into Episode II, where Jango hits his head on the closing door of the Slave I.
** Let's not claim that ''any'' blooper is hard to catch in ''Star Wars'', because according to [http://www.moviemistakes.com/film1226 this page], there are ''259'' mistakes in ''[[A New Hope]]'' alone.
* ''[[The Rocky Horror Picture Show]]'' has a sequence where Frank runs his finger down Rocky's chest while singing "ste-e-e-eam". During the utterance, a beep can be
* ''[[Plan
** It could be argued that the film ''is'' just one long blooper.
** The reason for this is that Ed Wood never did retakes. Thus, you get goofs like the gravestone being knocked over. And it didn't help that some of the actors were deliberately creating them, just to prod Ed Wood into saying "cut". (He didn't.)
* Peter Jackson's ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'' had a few. Just two examples from the third film: When the Nazguls descend on the city, you can count them and there are clearly 10 of them instead of 9. When Aragorn is holding his epic speech, the camera slides over the army a few times. One particular soldier who shows up at least twice on the screen is clearly wearing glasses.
* The first ''[[Jurassic Park]]'' has a hard-to-spot one, in the famous T-Rex scene of all places. Watch the door on the truck that the kids are in - when the POV is inside or near the vehicle, the driver's door is open, but when shown from the other car behind, the door is shut. It closes and re-opens off-camera twice before closing for good on-camera.
** Though ''[[Jurassic Park]]'' has two of the best bloopers ever. When the car rolls over, you can in one shot see the wire holding the car, a stage-light and a potted plant in the back. The other one is just when the raptors enter the kitchen where you can see a hand wobble one around.
*** And let's not forget that since they cut the shot where she grabs it from the movie itself(it's in the theatrical trailer on the DVD, though), at the end of the Jeep ride near the beginning of the film, Ellie suddenly has an exotic(and according to her, extinct) leaf in her hands from out of nowhere.
* In ''[[
* In [[The Wiggles]] ''Magical Adventure'' Captain Feathersword [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzB8k6SnY7M accidentally bumps the breast] of another pirate. It's a tiny little blooper (if she had been wearing a solid color rather than the stripes, no one would have ever noticed), but of the sort that once you have seen it it's hard ''not'' to notice it every time - especially because the pirate reacts to something Feathersword let slip, but it's easy after to wonder if she's reacting to the bump.
* [[Pirates of the Caribbean]] has many wonderful outtakes, including (but not limited to):
** [[Johnny Depp]] breaking script without breaking character
{{quote|
'''Captain Jack Sparrow:''' "Ah! You can't curse in a Disney film, mate." *aside* "I told him." }}
** [[Keira Knightley]] making faces.
** The many, many takes it took Elizabeth and Barbossa to perfect the swords tossed up through cracks in the floor catching shot.
* An exterior scene in the 1983 televised version of ''[[Star Trek:
* ''Showdown in Little Tokyo'' had at least two. The first one is when Dolph Lundgren's character jumps over a car. He is shown standing by the ''side'' of the car and uses a spring to catapult himself. The second one is when he shoots a pipe to have the steam inside it distract bad guys. A random man can ''clearly'' be seen sitting next to Dolph with a extinguisher and then using it.
* [[An American Werewolf in London]] has a small but noticeable continuity slip as Dr. Hirsch's beer gets fully refilled for a final sip in the pub.
* In one part of Disney's ''[[Babes in Toyland]]'', when Barnaby and his cohorts walk through the town to get everybody's attention, an extra accidentally closes her dress in the door and it's visible.
== [[Live Action TV]] ==
* Bloopers are often collected for TV specials or videos.
* The Dick Clark - Ed McMahon series ''[[
* ''[[Gilmore Girls]]'' often features this in regards to an episode's setting, especially since one of the main plot points is that Lorelai and Rory had to have dinner with Emily and Richard [[Once an Episode|every Friday night]].
* An extremely rare [[Tear Jerker|tear-jerking]] variation: in the ''[[
** This is kind of a CMOH, because Gellar was/is a firm believer in the Angel/Buffy pairing and the scene was causing her to genuinely tear up.
* Being unscripted for the most part, Billy Connolly's world tour of Scotland naturally included the bloopers: one notable one was when Billy's car stalled while he was giving a speech on Robert Bruce.

* The Dutch comedians ''Rooyakkers, Kamps & Kamps'' parodied this by redoing sketches from their show as an encore, only to deliberately screw them up.
* Many of the First Doctor's episodes on ''[[
** Listing all the bloopers in Doctor Who would require it's own page. Not counting visible strings holding up models, we get Daleks bumping into the camera, the Monster of the Week finally rising from his throne (only to reveal a stagehand's hand holding down the seat), boom mikes in the shot, and a production assistant standing in the wrong place and getting into the background. Some bloopers are so (in)famous that the 2005 production team threw a CGI monster accidentally bumping into the camera as a tip of the hat.
* ''[[The Carol Burnett Show]]'' would have them aired if neither take came out right.
* Often left in on the show ''[[Hee Haw]]'' (as the bloopers were often funnier than the jokes!).

* In ''[[Dead Rising]]'', the death of the Clown boss involves him falling on his two chainsaws. Yet when he is falling, the saws are held outward, not inward. Of course, seeing him fall on them is [[Rule of Scary]], but it wouldn't have hurt to make sure he was holding them the right way when he fell over.
* ''[[Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater]]: Snake Eater'' has a whole lot. [http://www.youtube.com/user/majinsweet this Youtube channel features some of them].
* A strong one happened in ''[[The Elder Scrolls Four|Oblivion]]'''s expansion, ''Shivering Isles''. {{spoiler|Near the end of The Cold Flame of Agnon quest, the commander of your chosen side sacrifices herself to relight the flame ([[It Makes Sense in Context]]), by performing sepukku. [[Narm|She does it without pulling her sword out of the scabbard.]] That's one sharp scabbard.}}

* The first [[Pajama Sam]] game had one in the 2002 re-release. One of the click points in a dancing room is a poster covered up by a couch. When one of the animations plays, it overlaps the couch. This didn't exist in the original, so it's baffling how it would be there.
