Line 432:
** In "Band Geeks", Squidward tells the flag-twirlers to speed it up, which then leads to their flags acting like propellers, sending them up hundreds of feet and crash into a blimp, [[Made of Explodium|which then explodes]], followed by another band member playing Taps (poorly) and Squidward quietly going into the [[Troubled Fetal Position]].
* In "Le Big Switch" Krabs exchanges Spongebob for a french chef from a high quality restaurant during an exchange program in hopes that customer demand for fine expensive food will increase his profits. Things don't go well for Spongebob in his new surroundings initially since [[SpongeBob]] is quite literally incapable of cooking anything but Krabby Patties, to the degree where he can't even fry an egg without it instantly transforming into a burger. However his epic fail becomes an [[Epic Win]] when both his boss and his rich clientele both enjoy his Krabby Patties so much they literally latch onto his ankles begging him not to go back to the Krusty Krab after the exchange ends.
** In "My Leg!" Spongebob tries to keep Fred from hurting his leg, something that [[Running Gag|tend to happen to Fred]] [[Understatement|quite a lot]]. He manages to get himself jammed in a sawmill shredder (causing the whole sawmill to explode), gets Patrick [[Girl Scouts Are Evil| beaten up by a Girl Scout]], get stung by a school of jellyfish, kills Fred's New Age healer (who fortunately [[Ascended to A Higher Plane of Existence| achieves transcendence]] as a result), wrecks a train, is ''literally'' stepped on in his attempt to shield Fred from [[Doom Magnet| a mud puddle, bear trap, nest of barnacles, and a bed of hot coals,]] breaks his own leg, Patrick's leg, [[It Makes Sense in Context| a robot's leg, a convict's leg]], and every part of Fred's body ''except'' his legs. Naturally, although it takes until the final scene of the short, poor Fred eventually hurts his leg anyway.
* In ''[[The Jetsons]]'', George and Jane once left their kids home alone for an extended period of time and Judy tried to serve ice cream. She burned it. She didn't ''melt'' the ice cream, she ''burned it'' without melting it, which is not actually impossible especially since sugar is highly combustible [https://web.archive.org/web/20180812020530/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fried_ice_cream].
* In ''the very first'' ''[[Transformers]]'' episode, [[The Starscream|Starscream]] shoots at the stasis locked Autobots... and revives them. [[Nice Job Fixing It, Villain|Oops.]] He goes on to make a long, long career in Epic Fail after that.
