Line 15:
** Happens to the villains too, at least in the [[Super Mario Land]] and first ''[[Wario Land]]'' spinoff. In many cases, they actually plummet off screen head first with the comedy sound of someone falling off a cliff.
*** Happens to mooks (their sprites are flipped upside down) if they're hit by a fireball (except ''Super Mario World''), vegetable, raccoon tail, starman, cape...
*** After a long while, this returns in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]].'' and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]].''
*** Also makes a return in [[Super Mario 3D Land]], which is remarkable because it's the first 3D Mario game to apply this trope.
** In the ''[[Yoshi's Island]]'' series games, while Yoshi would normally lose lives by having Baby Mario taken away from him, if he falls into a pit of spikes or lava he will die this way.
Line 29:
* [[Bubble Bobble|Parasol Stars and Bubble Bobble Part 2 (NES)]] while [[Everything's Better with Spinning|spinning out.]]
** Rainbow Islands NES version (US and Japanese versions). In contrast, the arcade version has the character hitting the platform he was shot off of and fall backwards from the impact. Others just make him hit midair and fall backwards.
* This only occurs with two kinds of death in [[
* ''[[Prehistorik Man]]'' has this. Interestingly, the way drowning is handled ''changes'' late in the game: Initially the character is thrown when he hits the bottom (once you've hit the surface you can't swim or jump out anyway), but after being told water makes you drown, the death animation is changed to drowning.
* ''[[Secret Agent (video game)|Secret Agent]]'' leaps off the screen while waving his hands and eyes madly as if he had an epileptic fit.
