Sometimes you'll encounter someone who just seems to have the perfect personality to go along with their job, like a real life work related version of [[Personality Powers]]. For example, maybe an old time watchmaker would have a very careful, analytical mind that paid very close attention to detail. What could be better for someone who has to very carefully use, assemble and repair something made of hundreds of tiny springs and gears?

* The Greed Island arc of ''[[Hunter X Hunter]]'' features Gensuru, the "Bomb Devil" or "Demon Bomber", whose Nen abilities are based on explosions.
Line 147:
* ''[[Minecraft]]'':
** Creepers. Pretty much all they do is silently sneak up on you, hiss for a second and a half, and explode. If the explosion doesn't kill you, it'll do devastating damage to your health.
** Ghasts (found only in the Nether), which
** If you have Mad Bomber tendencies yourself, you can blow stuff up with TNT or Fire Charges. Incidentally, to make these explosives, you need to get gunpowder by killing Ghasts or Creepers, the other two Mad Bombers in the game.
* The very first bad guy you fight in the ''[[Spider-Man 3]]'' movie tie-in game is Luke Carlyle, who's an industrialist-turned-bomb planting terrorist as opposed to a Doc Ock wannabe like in the comics. His supervillain nickname also happens to be the name of this very trope!
* Speaking of bombers in Spider-Man games, several missions in ''[[Spider-Man (2018 video game)|Spider-Man PS4]]'' involve destroying bombs that various villains have planted, such as the Inner Demons, Taskmaster, Hammerhead's thugs, and Screwball. But Screwball embodies this trope in full thanks to how unhinged, destructive, and obnoxious she is, all in pursuit of views for her livestreams.
