{{examples}}

* ''[[Dragonball Z]]''

** This was called back to after Zoro trained under Mihawk during the timeskip. His first "serious opponent", an octopus drunken swordsman, bragged about being the strongest swordsman in Fishman Island. Zoro kept calling him a frog, until the swordsman was sufficiently incensed, at which point Zoro stated he was bragging like a frog in a well, unaware of the world.

 

* [[Booster Gold]] was originally ''less'' than a muggle, he was a total loser: an ex-football player from the 25th disgraced by betting on his own games who ends up as the security guard of a museum. He steals a [[Time Travel|time travel device]] and a [[Robot Buddy]] and transports himself to present day... [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass|and has surprisingly become a great hero despite himself]].

* [[The Flash]], of DC Comics fame, is considered a bit of an inversion when DC and Marvel did one of their crossovers. In the Marvel Universe, there's no Speed Force (the source of his super-speed), so he's basically an ordinary man.

== [[Real Life]] ==

* In frontier country a person who would be merely a successful businessman elsewhere could often end up as what amounted to a king because they had organization and capital with them including the ability to get hired guns.
