** ''[[Magical Pokémon Journey]]'' has a non-breaking rope bridge...that some Hoppips manage to fall off ''anyway'' (being so light that wind blows them around, they all wind up back on the bridge at the next breeze).
* Variant in [[Rurouni Kenshin]]: Kenshin purposely destroys the ''wooden'' bridge he and Misao are trapped on in order to avoid a fight and make the quickest getaway.
* ''[[Inuyasha]]'': Jaken and Rin are confronted by a villain in the middle of a rope bridge. In a subversion, the bridge breaks because Jaken's attempt to defend himself and Rin relies on fire which burns the ropes and breaks the bridge causing all three of them to plunge into the gorge below.

* [[Lampshaded]] in ''[[The Librarian]]''. {{spoiler|While crossing a large wooden bridge, he expresses surprise that it would hold the weight, and bounces on the board. He falls through, and is rescued. Cue the bridge collapsing.}}
* In the climax of ''[[The King and I]]'' animated movie.
* Bully cuts down one while being chased by the natives that were chasing him in ''[[Nate and Hayes]]''.
* ''[[Monty Python and Thethe Holy Grail]]'': The Bridge of Death. Although old and rickety it's perfectly functional.
* ''[[Pandorum]]'' has a sci-fi take on this trope, with the old and damaged platform leading to the reactor. But instead of a ''[[Star Wars]]''-type abyss the platform passes low over a horde of sleeping carnivorous mutants.
* A rope bridge over a river of lava serves as the entrance to Atlantis in Disney's ''[[Atlantis: The Lost Empire|Atlantis the Lost Empire]]''.
