Line 200:
* In an episode of ''[[Transformers]] Heavy Metal War'', Wheeljack tries his new "shock blast cannon", a shoulder-mounted bazooka-like weapon, out on an incoming Megatron - only to knock himself to the floor with the quip, "That's a shock, alright..." Kind of a justification, as Wheeljack built the thing himself, and as a [[Mad Scientist]], it probably wouldn't be the first time he'd forgotten to take into account something as simple as recoil.
* The recoil from Yosemite Sam's six shooters is strong enough to make him airborn when firing downward.
* One Commander McBragg story from ''[[Tennessee Tuxedo and His Tales]]'' pretty much defies this Trope. The Commander's story involves him testing a new rifle with an incredibly powerful recoil, one which knocks him dozens of feet backwards no matter how he tries to brace himself, and even sends him crashing ''through a natural cave wall'' when he tries to brace himself that way. Ironically, when he falls into a deep pit with walls too smooth to climb, he uses the gun's recoil to escape, shooting downward and propelling him up and out.
