* In ''[[Elf Quest]]'', Shuna willingly subjects herself to this trope when Strongbow is falling to his death from a cliff.

* In ''The Punisher MAX: In The Beginning'', Frank Castle is being attacked by an [[Ax Crazy]] [[Made of Iron|tank]] named Pittsy. Pittsy beats the Punisher's face into hamburger, then grabs a nastily large shard of broken glass and proceeds to stab him repeatedly with it. [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] when Castle resolves the situation by catching the glass ''in his palm''...then snapping off the larger part of it, {{spoiler|picking up Pittsy and throwing him out a window}}.

* In Batman, Ra's Al Ghul came back from the dead after his body was destroyed. His first attempt was into the body of a martial artist action star, who had poisoned his own body to foil Ra's plans. Ra's took control of the body, but it was dying and numb of feeling. To demonstrate this, Ra's stabs his own hand, and continues to talk to his daughter Talia while his eye is visible staring out the clean, bloodless hole in his palm.
