Line 1: {{trope}} [[File:~~grenade_304~~grenade 304.jpg\|frame]] Not related to [[Tomato Surprise]] The pin is pulled from a grenade on a [[Badass Bandolier\|grenade belt]], causing the wearer and anyone in the immediate vicinity to explode. It can be used to elaborately kill a tooled-up enemy or as a makeshift suicide belt. Expect it to be used on a nearly triumphant enemy leading to a cathartic [[Oh Crap]] moment for the villain before he explodes. A subtrope of [[Why Am I Ticking?]] Line 7: == Anime == * At the beginning of the final battle between Accelerator and Kihara in the second season of ''[[ToA ~~Aru~~Certain ~~Majutsu no~~Magical Index]]'', the former [[One-Hit Polykill\|takes out three mooks with this trick]]. The only remaining one [[Oh Crap\|promptly craps himself]] and [[Too Dumb to Live\|tries using the]] [[Damsel in Distress]] (Accelerator's [[Morality Pet]]) as a [[Human Shield]]. Accelerator [[Pistol ~~Whip~~-Whipping\|doesn't appreciate it]]. * Played for laughs in the ''[[Kochikame]]'' manga. Military crazed cop Volvo Saigo who's armed to the teeth have accidentally released his pins when fastening his seatbelt and from swimming. Since this is a cartoon, he gets better. Line 18: * ''[[Raising Arizona]]'': Hi steals the pin of one of the [[Badass Biker]]'s grenades. * ''[[The Dark Knight]]'': The Joker threatens to do this to escape a room full of mob bosses. {{quote\| "Let's not 'blow' things out of proportion..." ''(shows thumb attached to a string, connected to several grenade pins inside his suit)''}} * ''[[Tank Girl]]'': The title character does this to the Water and Power mook who captured her, blowing him to bits. * ''[[X-Men (film)\|X2: X-Men United]]'': Magneto pulls the pins from a squad of soldiers all at once using his powers. * [[Tom Cruise]]'s ''[[The War of the Worlds (novel)\|The War of the Worlds]]'' has the main character pull the pins of at least one while he was being sucked into one of the tripods. Since he spit them out when his cagemates pulled him back, it seems implied that he [[Pin -Pulling Teeth\|pulled them with his teeth]]. * ''[[I Am Number Four]]'': Number Four kills the leader of the Magadorians by using his telekinesis to set off all of the leader's futuristic bullets while they're still strapped to his chest. * ''[[Captain America: The First Avenger]]'': Captain America pulls the pin on a grenade being carried on the back of HYDRA bike during a bike chase.
