In fiction, chairs make for great bludgeoning objects capable of [[Tap on the Head|knocking people unconscious]] in one strike; enter the '''Chairman of the Brawl''', that one guy who can be counted on grabbing the nearest sitting implement and smashing it across his unfortunate victim's head. If the chair is made of wood, it also immediately splinters into countless pieces to show how devastating the blow is.
If there is a [[Bar Brawl]] going on, this is to be expected.
Line 21:
* Used in ''[[The Mummy Trilogy|The Mummy 1999]]'' when Brendan Fraser's character stops the cowardly Beni from running away. As he's striding toward Beni, he grabs a wicker chair without missing a beat and ''throws'' it at Beni's legs, tripping him.
* Improbable weapon master Jackie Chan is rather famous for his use of seating material
** Played with in ''Young Master'' Jackie Chan stages an epic bench to bench combat with his fellow disciple [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6uJW6UpCcyI\]
* In ''[[God of Cookery]]'', [[Stephen Chow]] brings out a wooden folding chair and uses it in the middle of a [[Cooking Duel]] to beat up his main rival. The [[Caustic Judge]] actually comments on his good form and even mentions the advantages of the folding chair as a weapon.
