{{examples
== Anime & Manga ==
* ''[[Jo
* Giro and his henchwolves are all killed in an avalanche at the end of ''[[Arashi no Yoru Ni]]''.
Line 34:
* ''[[The Dark Knight]]'' has such a scene, though it's a bit different: it was a car bomb. One of the Joker's victims was given an envelope telling her where she was going into hiding, and the only word inside was "up". She looked up... and then the car ''went'' up.
* ''[[The Transporter|Transporter 3]]'': The warehouse fight scene ends with Frank Martin hitting a switch that drops a car onto two temporarily incapacitated bad guys, who look up, scream, and hold their hands up (ineffectually).
* ''Over Her Dead Body'': The [[Villain Protagonist]] dies at the beginning of the film because she just stood there staring at the falling statue, even though [[What an Idiot!|she had plenty of time to get out of the way]].
* ''[[Mission Impossible (Film)|Mission Impossible]]'': In the opening, the Hacker-type on Tom Cruise's team is killed in this way. However, he was sitting on top of a rising elevator at the time: it rose upwards and drove his face into some spikes ([[No Kill Like Overkill|not to mention being crushed as well]]).
* [[The Dragon]] from ''[[Lethal Weapon|Lethal Weapon 2]]'' got a face full of shipping container.
