** Done by a whole bunch of six inch-high Nac Mac Feegle in ''[[Discworld/A Hat Full of Sky|A Hat Full of Sky]]''. Said Feegles uses the same trick in ''[[Discworld/Wintersmith|Wintersmith]]''. It helps that, although everyone notices how weird they look, whenever someone tells them to get lost they just start [[Screw the Rules, I Have Money|waving around scads of money.]]
** In ''[[Discworld/Moving Pictures|Moving Pictures]]'', the ticket lady at the movie theater suspects one of the wizards of being this, when she spots his (fake!) false beard.
* Slytherin students use this to impersonate dementors in ''[[Harry Potter (Franchise)/Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban|Harry Potter]]''. Knowing why the culprits are doing this (Harry is afraid of dementors), the teachers are ''not'' amused -- especially not McGonagall.
* A similar trick was used unsuccessfully in ''[[Welkin Weasels]]: Thunder Oak'', involving nine ferrets in a human-sized suit of armor.
* In the children's novel ''Down Town'', Cary's first uncanny encounter is with an apparent bag lady. The accompanying illustration makes it clear that this is actually a whole lot of tiny humanoid creatures dressed up in old clothes.
Line 288:
* On a Halloween special of ''[[Eek the Cat]]'', Wendy and J.C. dress up as a giant chicken to go trick-or-treating, but even with the two of them stacked up, the costume was still too big for them. Eek attempted to solve the problem by making himself the head of the costume, which somewhat helped, but it wasn't long until he was suddenly flung out of the costume causing Wendy and J.C. to go the rest of the night as a headless chicken.
* In an episode of ''[[Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers (animation)|Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers]]'', the Rangers disguised themselves as birds. Gadget stands on top of Monty, and Dale stands on top of Chip.
* Arnold & Gerald do this in the ''[[Hey Arnold!]]'' episode "Door #16".
* In an episode of ''Peabody's Improbable History'', Peabody and Sherman do this to stand in for an actor on a stage play.
* In the ''[[Tale Spin]]'' episode "Stuck on You," Baloo and Don Karnage are forced to do this when the two are near-permanently glued together.
