* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cc0EVoit-fQ This video] featuring Arsenal footballers Andrey Arshavin, Bacary Sagna, Cesc Fabregas and Theo Walcott doing a Power Walk- while wearing furry animal costumes.
* The music video for [[Kanye West]]'s "Power", appropriately enough - the uncensored version shows Kanye animated instead of a still shot.
* Just to show that this ''[[Truth in Television|happens]]'' in [[Real Life]], [http[c://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b1/Bundesrat_Conseil_Consglio_CusseglFile:Bundesrat Conseil Consglio Cussegl.jpg |this]] is a picture of the Swiss Federal Council in 2003. Somehow, the Swiss cross on the floor makes it even better.
* The BBC series The Planets (About, surprisingly enough, [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|the planets]]), has a shot of several planetary geologists before they talk about some of Mars's features.
