* Parodied in the [[Machinima]] series [[Freemans Mind|Freeman's Mind]], in which the titular character fires a gun in an air vent and promptly receives massive pain and a high pitched keeling, followed by him whining about how he's going to end up deaf at this rate.

* Averted in the [[Survival of the Fittest]] Mini "The Program" with Matt Gourlay a number of times; almost everything he does in the compound takes place in the warehouse, and every time a gun is fired at him (or he fires at someone) he's left deaf, with a headache, and blind from the muzzle flash in a dark building. When {{spoiler|John Ferrara steals his gun and kills him}}, even shooting one round outside causes him to lose some hearing; while practicing at the firing range afterward, it's noted that his hearing had not fully recovered and the subsequent shots seemed quieter.

* Interestingly, the man who goes by the name FPS Russia follows the vast majority of gun safety regulations to an admirable degree. That said he very infrequently wears ear protection, though well-concealed earplugs are a possibility. This includes during such instances as [[More Dakka|firing fully automatic submachine guns]] at [[Stuff Blowing Up|explosive targets]], or [[Guns Akimbo|dual-wielding]] AA-12 shotguns.
