* In ''[[Stellvia of the Universe]]'', Shima cleans up before a study session by cramming all of her [[Girls Love Stuffed Animals|stuffed toys]] into the closet. Jojo notices one sticking out and opens the door.
* In ''[[RODR.O.D the TV]]'', this happens with the three sisters' entire ''apartment'', which is stuffed to bursting with books.
* Happens in the very first episode of ''[[Mahoromatic]]'', where Mahoro opens a bulging closet in Suguru's house only to promptly have an avalanche of matching shorts spill out all over her.

* Happened once in, of all places, ''[[Star Trek: The Original Series|Star Trek the Original Series]]'', episode "The Trouble with Tribbles", resulting in Kirk being buried in tribbles. Certainly embodies the spirit of the trope, but also justified in that the "closet" in question was a (formerly) grain-filled cargo bay.
** The fact that tribbles are still falling on Kirk's head after the trap is open is [[Retcon|explained somewhat]] in the ''[[Deep Space Nine]]'' episode "Trial and Tribble-ations", when it is revealed that the tribbles are being thrown out onto him by people trying to identify which one is a bomb.
* ''[[Zoboomafoo]]'': Whenever the Kratt Brothers want to go on an adventure, they open the closet and just shield themselves from the falling safari gear. Then they pick up what they need from whatever fell on the ground and leave. Also subverted, as a female guest-host who occasionally visited was able to open the closet, take out what she wanted, and close it again, without any problem. Of course, the next time the guys opened the closet, they again had all their stuff raining down on them.
