* Happened at least twice during ''[[Mighty Morphin Power Rangers]]'', the first time to a girl, the second time to Bulk and Skull who were in a bus. Interestingly, there are actually two "Megazord hands" used in the series. Normally it's metal, but it was a black glove in the scenes when someone needed to not smack into solid steel after falling a few hundred feet. Apparently, the viewer [[Viewers |

** An interesting variant is in the [[Power Rangers Turbo|movie]], where the characters are already on the ground. The Turbo Megazord lowers its hand to allow the civilian Ranger assistants [[And Zoidberg|plus Bulk and Skull]] to climb up...and then promptly locks its hand into a tight fist, presumably crushing the occupants to death. Obviously, they were fine later, but it was a bit jarring. "Oh, yeah, come on up guys, let me give you a [[Incredibly Lame Pun|hand]]...CRUNCH." |

* An interesting variation happens in ''[[Rescue Sentai Go Go Five]]'' / ''[[Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue]]'', where Red's Zord is a fire engine whose ladders are the Megazord's arms, and naturally, end in giant hands. These are used to enter burning buildings so that the people inside can step into the hands and be pulled to safety. |
