== [[Live Action TV]] ==
* In ''[[Farscape (TV)|Farscape]],'' Luxans have long tongues, tipped with knock-out venom. However, D'Argo has also used it for dangling off ledges and snatching objects in a hurry- though it takes a lot of practice to perfect.
* A minor character in one episode of [[Space Precinct]] used his to remove a bomb stuck to the hood of the car he was in.
* Silurians in the revived ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]''. The [[Power Perversion Potential]] is all but outright stated in "A Good Man Goes To War"...
* [[Juken Sentai Gekiranger|Mele]] can use her tongue to ''stab'' people, or hit their pressure points and disrupt the flow of their chi.
 
 
== [[Video Games]] ==
* [[Super Mario Bros.|Yoshi]] invokes this trope quite a fair bit in some of his games. Although a lot of his skillset revolves around eating living things, he can use his tongue for other things, especially in ''[[Yoshis Story (Video Game)|Yoshis Story]]'', where Yoshi can use it to nudge bubbles around if need be, and use it to hookshot his way onto red ! balls.
* [[Gex]] uses his tongue for several things, especially volleying out fire, ice and slime when he's eaten a powerup, as well as to grab ledges in lieu of his hands.
* Sting Chameleon of ''[[Mega Man X]]'', pictured above, uses this for two of his primary attacks. His melee attack comprises of a painful metal tongue lash, but he can also hang from the roof with it to cause multiple spikes to come out of the ceiling.
