== [[Live Action TV]] ==
* An episode of ''[[Star Trek: Voyager|Star Trek Voyager]]'' had a planet made entirely out of water, the reason for that being it was held together by a massive force field generator at its core. The people living on the planet meanwhile believed their gods had given it to them as a gift (note: they lived underwater in buildings).
* In the ''[[Doctor Who]]'' episode "Smith and Jones," the gravity-transport beam the Judoon use to transport the hospital from the earth to the moon causes water to condense out of the air around the hospital and fall upward, creating the illusion that it's "raining backward."
* Cleo from ''[[H₂O: Just Add Water]]'' has the power to manipulate the form of water and mould it into a different shape. She can mystically create more water to form a "branch" from a small cup
 
== [[Tabletop Games]] ==
* The [[Forgotten Realms]] setting in ''[[Dungeons and& Dragons]]'' had a spell called "Laeral's Aqueous Column," which created a column of water that was 10 feet high per caster level and 10 feet wide.
** 1st Edition D&D had a lot of Bible-derived cleric spells, including ''Part Water'' and ''Raise/Lower Water''.

* [[The Angry Video Game Nerd]] famously lost his cool while playing ''Super [[Pitfall]]'' as the result of this trope.
* The forest level in ''[[The Legendary Starfy]]'' had numerous examples.
* A single-course setpiece obstacle in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'': moving circles of water mixed in with the platforms. Yes, you can swim in them, and you can fall out of them to your death.
* The very first ''[[Turok (series)|Turok]]'' game (the good one) had vertical columns of water that you had to ascend and jump out of at the top to scale a dungeon.
* Ditto one part of ''[[Clive Barker's Undying|Undying]]'' set in [[Eldritch Location|Oneiros]].
