Line 54:
* Think of a show with a [[Summer Campy|summer camp]]: this gag inevitably appears. It must be a rule, or something.
* An episode of ''[[Cheers]]'' had it as well.
* In the ''[[That '70s Show]]'' episode "Prank Day" Eric tries to do this to Kelso. The bucket falls on Red instead.
* Originally, the ending of the ''[[Red Dwarf]]'' episode "Dimension Jump" involved Rimmer trying to do this to Ace with a pile of kippers. The gag was to backfire, with the last shot being a freezeframe of the kippers falling over Rimmer... but then someone realized the gag made no sense, since the kippers would fall ''through'' [[Virtual Ghost]] Rimmer. The scene was cut, one of the few times ''Red Dwarf'' worked to avoid [[Fridge Logic]].
* On ''[[Sesame Street]]'', Harvey Kneeslapper once had a bucket of confetti triggered by a rope. A series of subversions followed.
