* In ''[[Goblin Hollow]]'', one character botches a Move Silently roll, and his character trips. The guard turns out to be deaf as a post.
* In ''[[The Specialists]]'', [http://thespecialistscomic.com/page-25/ what gives Hartmann away.] Then, he did want to make contact with them.

* [[Evil Overlord List]] #139: If I'm sitting in my camp, hear a twig snap, start to investigate, then encounter a small woodland creature, I will send out some scouts anyway just to be on the safe side. (If they disappear into the foliage, I will not send out another patrol; I will break out the napalm.)▼

Line 100 ⟶ 103:
* Dr. Venture of ''[[The Venture Brothers]]'' has a moment like this when he accidently drops a lightbulb his bodyguard Brock Sampson asked him to unscrew for total darkness, thus alerting the nearby guards.

As a result, the sound of a snapping twig won't give someone away unless they're trying to avoid someone who's being very alert, or already knows that they're there.
