Line 52:

** In the final battle with him in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', after you score two hits on him, he smashes the platform, turning it into a smaller star-shaped one. Before this point, flinging him off the platform but missing the bombs around the edge will result in Bowser simply leaping back up, which can knock off one of the pieces that would otherwise fall after the two hits.

* In ''[[Ecco the Dolphin (series)|Ecco the Dolphin]]: Defender of the Future'', the final boss is the alien queen's [[Womb Level|heart]]. During the fight, blood rises from the bottom. if you don't defeat it quickly, Ecco will drown in the blood. [[Justified Trope|Which makes sense]] because blood doesn't have air in it, and dolphins [[Truth in Television|being mammals cannot breathe in any liquid whatsoever]].

* In ''[[Ys]] I'', everytime you hit Dark Fact, a piece of the platform drops out. If you're standing on said piece, you die instantly. If you aren't leveled up enough (in the [[~~Turbo Grafx~~ 16]] version, that is; in others you'll already be at the [[Cap]]), you'll end up with too many holes and become trapped and killed.

* [[~~Yoshis~~ Island]]: The [[Background Boss|final boss]] will start off by occasionally dropping boulders near where Yoshi stands, leaving sizable gaps. When he's about to die, he bum-rushes the arena to destroy all platforms and knock Baby Mario out of the saddle while Yoshi plummets. Pretty much screwed either way.

* In ''[[Purple]]'', the final boss will occasionally send down bolts of lightning that destroy the floor.

* Subverted in ''[[Mass Effect 2]]''. The [[Final Boss]] periodically destroys some of the platforms which make up the battle area. However, it never destroys the platform you start out on, completely eradicating any sense of urgency.
