== Comic Books ==
* Seen in a strip of ''[[Spinoff Babies|Le Petit]] [[Spirou and Fantasio|Spirou]]''. Spirou and his friend Cassius are at the beach, waiting to get into the water by counting the waves. On cue, the 75th is bigger than the others, stripping the girls from their class as well as their [[Hot Teacher]] from their swimsuits—at which point the boys jump in with diving mask and snorkel to see underwater.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20130307151238/http://www.renaud-bray.com/ImagesEditeurs/PG/1060/1060187-gf.jpg This cover] for the ''[[Spirou and Fantasio|Spirou]]'' compilation #309, with characters from the French-Canadian comic ''Les Nombrils''.
* [[Invoked]] in the [[Beach Episode|Beach Issue]] of ''Mazing Man''. Guido gets a bunch of girls in bikinis to go into the water with him and flap their arms, because at least one of their tops will come off. It happens all right—to the ugly chick. Cue [[In-Universe]] [[Squick]].
 
* In an ''[[Archie Comics]]'' story, Veronica was upset that Archie was paying more attention to his fishing than her, so she grabbed a spare swim suit, hooked it to Archie's line, and told him he hooked her suit (the one she was wearing). Then she [[Getting Crap Past the Radar|let him reel it in and told him he'd pulled it off of her]]. The rest of the story involved Archie trying to find something for her to cover up with.
 
== Films -- Animation ==
* Happens to [[Lupin III]] in ''[[The Castle of Cagliostro|The Castleof Cagliostro]]''. He dives underwater after one of the Count's aqua-suited goons. As he swims in pursuit through a tunnel, his boxers start to slip. At the end of the chase he drags the unfortunate goon back into the tunnel... then reaches out to snatch his boxers before they can float away.
 
** A chilling example happens in the series, where a woman dives into a pool ahead of Fujiko. Unfortunately for her, an assassin targeting the gang had filled the pool with acid; the floating bikini top serves as a Dead Hat Shot.
 
== Films -- Live-Action ==
Line 59 ⟶ 47:
* In some surf movie called ''The Surfer King'', this happens to a girl when two guys tell the guy operating a surf simulating ride to turn it up. It causes her bottoms to come off, but she fails to notice and walks away.
* [[Buster Keaton]] loses his oversized rental suit in a public pool in ''The Cameraman''.
 
* Done in ''[[Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days]]''. Greg loses his swimsuit on the diving board, and in order to spite him, a little girl takes it and places it on a post close to the entrance. Greg is forced to stake out in the pool without anyone seeing him, and eventually manages to get an extra suit... {{spoiler|a pair of pink short-shorts}}.
 
== Live-Action TV ==
Line 84 ⟶ 72:
* Happens to Lucius on ''[[Jimmy Two-Shoes|Jimmy Two Shoes]]'', because he loaded his swimsuit with stolen pirate gold.
* Mentioned in an episode of ''[[Clifford the Big Red Dog|Clifford's Puppy Days]]'', where Nina says her swimsuit fell off during a dive because it was too big.

* Several competition swimmers with Jaked brand swimsuits have had the suit rip in the posterior area before or during a swim.

• This once happened to [[Kirsten Dunst]] on a beach.
• On British reality TV show Coach Trip, the contestants were taken to the Olympic pool in Barcelona to learn the basics of high-diving. Proceedings came to an embarrassed halt when a buxom young girl from Sunderland performed an impressive dive - losing her bikini bottoms on contact with the water. This was captured for posterity and screened to the nation at five in the evening, albeit with pixellation.
