Line 101:
* The ''[[Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers (animation)|Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers]]'' episode "Seer No Evil" includes a non-drowning variation on this trope. Here, Chip is seemingly crushed by a falling treasure chest and, when Zipper pulls his hat out from under the chest, the other Rangers mourn his apparent death. However, they then discover that Chip survived by diving into a conveniently placed hole in the floorboards.
* Bart tossing his red baseball cap on to a cardboard box when he ditches the [[Class Trip]] to the box factory leads Homer to conclude that he has been made into a box in an episode of ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]''.
** Another ''Simpsons'' example: season nine's "Simpson Tide," during the [[BigNon LippedSequitur Alligator MomentScene|random "In The Navy" musical, featuring the actual Village People]] ([[Off-Model|though the cop -- who's black in real life -- is shown with yellow Simpsons skin]]) [[My Friends and Zoidberg|and Smithers]] dancing on the submarine—until it begins to dive. [[Status Quo Is God|Naturally]], [[What Happened to the Mouse?|Smithers disappears]], but the Village People aren't so lucky and end up drowning. The only hats that float to the surface are the Construction Worker's hard hat, the cowboy's Stetson, and the Indian's headdress.
* In ''[[Brother Bear]]'', we are shown that Kenai's older brother has been killed by his fall from a glacier into the water hundreds of feet below when his hat is found floating.
* In the penultimate episode of ''[[Beast Wars]]'' the battle between Depth Charge and Rampage ends with a massive underwater explosion followed by various bits and pieces (most notably one of Depth Charge's wings) floating to the surface in a deliberate send up of this trope.
