History AmusingInjuries / WesternAnimation

* A ''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken'' {{Alien}} sketch entails an individual Xenomorph's acid melting through multiple floors, resulting in it fallling through several stories before hitting the pavment.

* WesternAnimation/Numberblocks: In the episode “Fifteen,” Eight breaks his leg. The amusing part is that immediately afterward, he says “Octoblock, ouch! I’ve got an octo-boo-boo!”

* ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'', to a truly extraordinary extent. Injuries only last any length of time [[RuleOfFunny if it's funny]], but it's effectively {{deconstructed|Trope}} in TheMovie, where [[spoiler: Eddy's treatment at the hands of his brother]] is treated with horror by the other kids.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Superjail}}'' follows the ''Happy Tree Friends'' train of thought. Make it as realistic as possible for maximum comedy value. Ditto ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers''. (Dean and Hank learning about real death when [[WesternAnimation/JonnyQuest Race Bannon]] dies in front of them with Brock lecturing them on it.)
** Another interesting example from WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers, though an aversion, many villains, but especially 21 and 24, seem to derive a particularly morbid enjoyment from pondering the potential injuries Brock Samson is about to inflict upon someone. Provided ''they'' aren't the intended target, of course.

* ''WesternAnimation/ToucheTurtleAndDumDum'': Touché and Dum Dum often suffer plenty of {{Slapstick}} abuse before eventually saving the day.

** The ShowWithinAShow ''Itchy and Scratchy'' defines this trope. It's a ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry'' parody, except far more graphic.

* ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry'' is one of the most famous examples.

* Used constantly in ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfFigaroPho'', to keep the show more lighthearted.

* In ''WesternAnimation/DanVs'', there is not one single episode where a character isn't injured in some way, [[ButtMonkey Chris being the usual victim of this]].
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Daria}}'' is pretty realistic as far as cartoons go - When the school goes on a [[PaintballEpisode paintball-playing field trip]] (the episode "The Daria Hunter") the RunningGag is "Ow! Those paintball thingies hurt!"
* Lampshaded in ''WesternAnimation/DarkwingDuck''. In one episode when the plot involves a movie theater, Darkwing is hit by a heavy object and explains: "See the difference. A Movie figure would stand up and be okay now. I, on the other hand, am seriously hurt..." Funny because he actually behaves pretty much like those "movie figures" - and in this episode is OK 10 seconds later.

* Every episode of ''WesternAnimation/DrawnTogether'' has at least one character getting a comically horrific injury, [[UnexplainedRecovery only to appear fine in the next scene]] (though sometimes, the characters remain this way for the remainder of the episode). There is not enough room on this page to list all of the injuries that the characters have gone through.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddparents'' makes use of This. Timmy has fallen of cliffs, been mauled by dogs, and had several other potentially fatal things happen to him. And yet, he can take it. Mind, his Fairy God Parents have raised the dead at least once.
* Subverted in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' where we see Elmer shoot Bugs Bunny down dead then snap his neck as he lies in a pile of bloody, mangled flesh.

* Henry of ''WesternAnimation/KaBlam'' goes through '''a lot'''. Falling off cliffs, melting, having extremely heavy objects fall on him, getting beat up by a sasquatch (or an angry little girl), almost getting attacked by a black widow, however he's fine by the next episode (or after the next cartoon short).

* Happens frequently to everyone in ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'', with Lincoln being the obvious victim of these.
* The toon in the vivisection parts of ''WesternAnimation/MonkeyDust'' has the standard cartoonish Amusing Injuries, then it gets subverted when he drops an anvil on the (less-toonish) doctor's head. It's not pretty.
* Twilight Sparkle of ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' suffers several Amusing Injuries in the episode "Feeling Pinkie Keen".

* In ''WesternAnimation/PatAndMat'' there is no violence, except to common sense, but with the amount of {{Face Plant}}s they do and things falling on their heads (totally [[DoomItYourself their fault]]) it's a wonder these two are still alive.

** Inverted in one episode, where Misery isn't hurt at all. The other characters are getting hurt instead

** Averted (very much so) in "The Homer They Fall." Whereas most other episodes where Homer is injured has him reacting in comic pain and everything is exaggerated, not so here ... in fact, Homer suffers a major concussion in less time than it takes the timekeeper to strike the bell with the hammer, and just as long for Tatum to throw a second blow that, had it connected, would likely have killed him instantly. [[spoiler: (Moe rescues Homer JustInTime)]]

* Being a zombie, Randall in ''WesternAnimation/UglyAmericans'' seems to perform this trope nicely. The really amusing part is, like the robot example above, it seems in this universe separate body parts retain their individuality. Which is then {{lampshaded}} by his mistreatment of his penis resulting in it ripping itself off his body and running away, the final straw having been a one-night stand with an EldritchAbomination he picks up at a movie theatre. In the first season finale he's carried around missing his lower torso for most of the episode.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Superjail}}'' follows the ''Happy Tree Friends'' train of thought. Make it as realistic as possible for maximum comedy value. Ditto ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers''. (Dean and Hank learning about real death when [[WesternAnimation/JonnyQuest Race Bannon]] dies in front of them with Brock lecturing them on it.)
** Another interesting example from WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers, though an aversion, many villains, but especially 21 and 24, seem to derive a particularly morbid enjoyment from pondering the potential injuries Brock Samson is about to inflict upon someone. Provided ''they'' aren't the intended target, of course.

* The stars of the WesternAnimation/ClassicDisneyShorts do this more often in modern times, such as on ''WesternAnimation/HouseOfMouse'' and ''WesternAnimation/MickeyDonaldGoofyTheThreeMusketeers''.
* All the time in ''WesternAnimation/TheShnookumsAndMeatFunnyCartoonShow'', in all three segments.
* Nearly every character in the ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'' series gets this eventually, especially if they're a ButtMonkey.
** In fact, there are so many injuries that its wiki has created its [[https://totaldrama.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_Total_Drama_injuries own page for them]].
* The Music/{{Gorillaz}} both use and subvert this with 2D. On one hand, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jU8_qgkYnOQ his injuries are often]] PlayedForLaughs, but this quickly delves into FridgeHorror when you realize that 2D ''doesn't'' recover like most cartoon characters and has in fact developed a problem with painkillers as a result.


* In ''WesternAnimation/SlackerCats'' all the injuries are PlayedForLaughs, even in episode two when Tabitha got her only ear ripped off.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Spliced}}'' has a lot of amusing injuries. The most common case is a character getting thrown into a volcano, but there are plenty of other examples as well.

* ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse''
** In the episode "The Kindergarten Kid", which is an {{Homage}} to the [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Wile E. Coyote and Roadrunner shorts]], with Peridot in the role of Wile E. Coyote. She is about as successful in her attempts to capture her prey as Wile E. is, and she suffers quite a lot of physical abuse trying. Fortunately for her, she's got the SuperToughness necessary to be able to survive all of it with barely a scratch.
** Deconstructed for Steven in the ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverseFuture'' episode "Growing Pains". After getting a physical from Dr. Maheswaran when his powers start going haywire, she notes that his X-rays indicate Steven has suffered countless bone fractures throughout the years, from all of the amusing injuries that he has suffered in the entire series. And it turns out that Steven's internally scarred in more ways than one: after hearing about his life, the doctor concludes that Steven's troubles are primarily psychological in nature. Steven's dangerous and often frightening adventures with the Crystal Gems (coupled with [[GoodThingYouCanHeal repeated injuries he's only survived because of his healing powers]]) have given him intense trauma that he needs to find a way to deal with if he ever hopes to live a normal life.
* ''WesternAnimation/StarTrekLowerDecks'':
** The show parodies the instant-fix medicine displayed in the rest of the franchise, when a wave of the "dermal regenerator" (usually a handheld household object with a lightbulb in it) is enough to heal most things and pills can regrow kidneys. ''Lower Decks'' takes it to new heights by having the wavy light bulb instantly fixing things like ''compound fractures'' and characters become incredibly nonchalant about inflicting severe injuries or [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction continue to hold conversations]] with a spear through them.
** "[[Recap/StarTrekLowerDecksS2E06TheSpyHumongous The Spy Humongous]]": During anomaly cleanup duty, Mariner is the one on the receiving end of being slimed, electrocuted, or shot with quills by the various items that the ensigns are dealing with, all of which have no true lasting effects beyond wounding her pride.
* ''WesternAnimation/ToucheTurtleAndDumDum'': Touché and Dum Dum often suffer plenty of {{Slapstick}} abuse before eventually saving the day.

* ''WesternAnimation/TeddyTrucks'' subverts the trope. Wilson getting his foot stuck in a bucket as a result of him playing football with a sponge garners a few laughs from his co-workers but the injury is actually treated with some seriousness as Wilson has to go to hospital and miss out on playing football the following day.
* ''WebAnimation/HappyTreeFriends'': the entire premise — graphic, bloody injuries on cute cartoon animals — [[CrossesTheLineTwice Crosses The Line Endlessly]].
* Disney movies seem very fond of amusing injuries to the buttocks; from being [[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid1989 bitten by a dog]] to [[WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994 landing butt-first in a briar patch]] to being [[WesternAnimation/{{Mulan}} stabbed there with a flaming arrow.]]

* ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' makes a running joke out of Kenny's horrific injuries. In this case, the character actually dies, and is revived each episode by NegativeContinuity rather than by an UnexplainedRecovery.
** In one two-part episode, he miraculously popped back into existence in the first few seconds of the second episode without comment.
*** Later in the series, it's deconstructed when Kenny reveals [[spoiler:he remembers every death. ''Every single one''.]]
** In the episode "Die, Hippie, Die", Mayor [=McDaniels=] shoots herself in the head, and appears in a later scene alive and well with a bandage around the affected area.
* ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' has a lot of these: Daffy Duck in the course of his career was riddled with countless bullets usually only ending up bare and sooty with a humorously displaced beak. However, near the end of the 1953 short "Duck! Rabbit, Duck!", after getting shot in the face for the ''sixth'' time by Elmer Fudd, he finally snaps.
-->'''Daffy:''' Shoot me again! I enjoy it! I love the smell of burnt feathers, and gunpowder, and cordite! I'm an elk! Shoot me, go on! It's elk season! I'm a fiddler crab! Why don't you shoot me?! It's fiddler crab season!!!
** However, not even Daffy can equal the sheer amount and variety of the (highly) amusing injuries inflicted on one Wile E. Coyote (SUPER-genius). Over the years, the hapless hunter has been on the receiving end of everything from catapults to earthquake pills and all possible variations of falling off of a cliff.
** Surprisingly averted at the end of WesternAnimation/WhatsOperaDoc. It's... [[TearJerker not funny.]]

* Every episode of ''WesternAnimation/DrawnTogether'' has at least one character getting a comically horrific injury, [[UnexplainedRecovery only to appear fine in the next scene]] (though sometimes, the characters remain this way for the remainder of the episode). There is not enough room on this page to list all of the injuries that the characters have gone through.

* ''WebAnimation/HappyTreeFriends'': the entire premise — graphic, bloody injuries on cute cartoon animals — [[CrossesTheLineTwice Crosses The Line Endlessly]].

* ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry'' is one of the most famous examples.
** Animation historian Michael Barrier argued in one book that some of the violence in the very early T&Js was a little unsettling, precisely because the character designs and animation were ''too'' realistic. As the '40s progressed into the '50s and the designs became flatter and more stylized (following the lead of Creator/TexAvery, who headed a different MGM cartoon unit), the violence got funnier and more "cartoony".
** One cartoon actually showed the effects of different injuries Tom subjected to, as he accumulates more bandages through the story. Including a toupee' to hide the fact he'd earlier ''blown the top of his scalp off'' with a shotgun.
* ''WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButthead'' started out giving the characters gruesome and realistic injuries (missing teeth, heavy bleeding) and [[PlayedForLaughs playing it for laughs]] by SnapBack before switching to a more lighthearted approach of just making them bruised or knocked silly by things 10 times worse than had previously harmed them.
* ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' is a fairly standard example of this, {{lampshaded}} in "S'winter". Phineas, Ferb, and Candace are all riding on a snowboard and they crash into a snowman. Candace (on the back of the board) is the only one to hit it, and Phineas asks Ferb "How did we miss that?" Then they hit a tree, or rather, Candace does. Phineas remarks "Now that's just weird." This also highlights Candace's status as the show's ButtMonkey. The majority of the show's cast never ends up as fodder for this trope, (unless it would be [[RuleOfFunny funnier]]), but it's about OnceAnEpisode for Candace and [[HoistByHisOwnPetard Dr. Doofenshmirtz]].
** Ferb is also fodder for this trope. He is specifically thrown around in "Chronicles of Meap", and "One Good Scare Ought to Do It". His mental state is the main target; likely because it's typically unalterable.
** Parodied in one episode. After Doofenshmirtz gets a new nemesis, the episode treats this like a break-up, complete with Perry and Doofenshmirtz appearing on a parody of Dr. Phil. Doofenshmirtz promises to hurt Perry "the right way: with cartoonish violence and hair-brained schemes."
*** In another, Perry is busy dealing with another crisis, so Doofenshmirtz decides to gloat to "Planty the Potted Plant", an actual potted plant with a tiny hat on it. Somehow, the plant ''beats Doofenshmirtz and wrecks his lair'', and is officially hired by Monogram at the end of the episode.
* The toon in the vivisection parts of ''WesternAnimation/MonkeyDust'' has the standard cartoonish Amusing Injuries, then it gets subverted when he drops an anvil on the (less-toonish) doctor's head. It's not pretty.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Daria}}'' is pretty realistic as far as cartoons go - When the school goes on a [[PaintballEpisode paintball-playing field trip]] (the episode "The Daria Hunter") the RunningGag is "Ow! Those paintball thingies hurt!"
* ''WesternAnimation/RubyGloom'' does this too. Misery, one of the main characters is always hit by lightning, only to say "ouch" and come back 10 seconds later in best shape.
** Inverted in one episode, where Misery isn't hurt at all. The other characters are getting hurt instead
* ''WesternAnimation/LeagueOfSuperEvil'' does this almost constantly with Doktor Frogg. Whether it's being crushed by giant doors, or eaten by Doomageddon. Then again he is the resident ChewToy. So it's expected of him.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheRenAndStimpyShow'' is full of this, frequent things that happen include large veiny bumps appear after getting hit on the head, skin would get sucked or ripped off, getting run over or smashed with a large object would reduce them to a puddle, sometimes a blow to the face would knock teeth out or make them shatter like glass, knock a brain out of the head, and leave an eyeball hanging out of the socket.
* ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' adores this trope, especially in the newer episodes. "The Krusty Krushers" is possibly 10 minutes of little more than Amusing Injuries and [=SpongeBob=] style gags.
** And of course, there's the ever-popular "MY LEG!", predominantly from the earlier seasons. The episode "My Leg!" opens with a montage of Fred hurting one or both of his legs in various ways, ending with one shattering to pieces when a single leaf falls on it.
** In "SB-129", [=SpongeTron=], one of [=SpongeBob's=] many futuristic descendants and exact genetic replicas tells Squidward that the [[TimeMachine Time Machine]] he needs to use is "Down the hall on the left." Squidward rushes into it, we hear a can opener and Squidward walks out cut to shreds with his body making a funny springing sound. [=SpongeTron=] apologizes and tells Squidward to try the room on the right.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddparents'' makes use of This. Timmy has fallen of cliffs, been mauled by dogs, and had several other potentially fatal things happen to him. And yet, he can take it. Mind, his Fairy God Parents have raised the dead at least once.
* Disney movies seem very fond of amusing injuries to the buttocks; from being [[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid1989 bitten by a dog]] to [[WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994 landing butt-first in a briar patch]] to being [[WesternAnimation/{{Mulan}} stabbed there with a flaming arrow.]]
* Henry of ''WesternAnimation/KaBlam'' goes through '''a lot'''. Falling off cliffs, melting, having extremely heavy objects fall on him, getting beat up by a sasquatch (or an angry little girl), almost getting attacked by a black widow, however he's fine by the next episode (or after the next cartoon short).
* ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'', to a truly extraordinary extent. Injuries only last any length of time [[RuleOfFunny if it's funny]], but it's effectively {{deconstructed|Trope}} in TheMovie, where [[spoiler: Eddy's treatment at the hands of his brother]] is treated with horror by the other kids.
%%(ZCE)* [[WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfJimmyNeutronBoyGenius Ow, my scapula.]] (That's a shoulder blade, for those who weren't paying attention in human anatomy and physiology.)
* ''WesternAnimation/CourageTheCowardlyDog'' has this happen to the title character a lot. He usually (literally) just laughs it off, even in serious situations. Of course, as far as the number of injuries go, Courage has nothing on Eustace, who is [[TheChewToy the reigning champ of amusing injuries in the show]].
* ''WesternAnimation/JimmyTwoShoes'' thrives off this trope, with almost every episode (especially the early ones) featuring major and minor characters being subject to all sorts of violent slapstick in the name of BlackComedy. Somewhat justified by the fact that Miseryville is meant to be a cartoony version of {{Hell}}.

* ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'' makes constant use of this trope. Zim has been mauled by rabid dogs, hit with at least four dozen dodgeballs simultaneously, injured his [[BizarreAlienBiology squeedlyspooch]] multiple times, and has been burned by meat and contaminated water, which apparently he is vulnerable too.

* In ''WesternAnimation/DanVs'', there is not one single episode where a character isn't injured in some way, [[ButtMonkey Chris being the usual victim of this]].
* Twilight Sparkle of ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' suffers several Amusing Injuries in the episode "Feeling Pinkie Keen".
** Twilight is usually the one who get hurt the most without being the ButtMonkey, but the entire mane six has their moments.

* ''WesternAnimation/RockosModernLife'' is ''full'' of this, most of them happening to the main character, Rocko the Wallaby.
* ''WesternAnimation/OggyAndTheCockroaches'' is essentially ''Tom And Jerry'' take up to eleven. To say that the injuries of the characters are amusing is an understatement.
* Happens frequently to everyone in ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'', with Lincoln being the obvious victim of these.
* In ''WesternAnimation/PatAndMat'' there is no violence, except to common sense, but with the amount of {{Face Plant}}s they do and things falling on their heads (totally [[DoomItYourself their fault]]) it's a wonder these two are still alive.
* Used constantly in ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfFigaroPho'', to keep the show more lighthearted.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Kaeloo}}'' basically revolves around everybody getting severely injured, only to be perfectly fine. At least OncePerEpisode, somebody or the other gets shot with a bazooka.

* ''WesternAnimation/Cracked2016'' runs almost entirely on this. Ed gets injured very frequently and in comically over-the-top manners on a nearly constant basis as he protects his eggs in every episode.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball'' loves this trope.
** While Gumball himself is BornUnlucky and prone to these, the other Wattersons aren't that far behind him.
** [[AnthropomorphicFood Anton the piece of toast]] deserves special mention, as [[TheyKilledKennyAgain he dies in practically every episode he appears in]]: he's been eaten by a flock of birds, crushed by Tina Rex, disintegrated in a swimming pool, etc.
** "The Curse" in particular is full of these. Gumball slips on soap in the shower (landing in the toilet), gets his finger stuck in the bus's door, gets slammed into a street pole, gets SquashedFlat by [[OurGiantsAreBigger Hector]], and struck by lightning inside the gymnasium and turned into a pile of ash. Eventually subverted in the end where he falls off of an unfinished highway and is said to have been lucky to survive.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' has this happen on a regular basis, particularly to Fry. Dismemberment, impalement, decapitation. Of course they can keep a severed head alive in a jar and it's apparently trivial to reattach or replace something. I.e. this one time Fry's hands were bitten off by a T. rex and the next scene has him walking out of "Handcrafters: New Hands in an Hour".

** In fact, there are so many injuries that its wiki has created its [[http://totaldramaisland.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Injuries own page for them]].

* ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' is a fairly standard example of this, {{lampshaded}} in "S'winter". Phineas, Ferb, and Candace are all riding on a snowboard and they crash into a snowman. Candace (on the back of the board) is the only one to hit it, and Phineas asks Ferb "How did we miss that?" Then they hit a tree, or rather, Candace does. Phineas remarks "Now that's just weird." This also highlights Candace's status as the show's ButtMonkey. The majority of the show's cast never ends up as fodder for this trope, (unless it would be [[RuleOfFunny funnier]]), but it's about OnceAnEpisode for [[SlapstickKnowsNoGender Candace]] and [[HoistByHisOwnPetard Dr. Doofenshmirtz]].

* ''WesternAnimation/StarTrekLowerDecks'': The show parodies the instant-fix medicine displayed in the rest of the franchise, when a wave of the "dermal regenerator" (usually a handheld household object with a lightbulb in it) is enough to heal most things and pills can regrow kidneys. ''Lower Decks'' takes it to new heights by having the wavy light bulb instantly fixing things like ''compound fractures'' and characters become incredibly nonchalant about inflicting severe injuries or [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction continue to hold conversations]] with a spear through them.

* The short lived British animation ''WesternAnimation/TeddyTrucks'' subverts the trope. Wilson getting his foot stuck in a bucket as a result of him playing football with a sponge garners a few laughs from his co-workers but the injury is actually treated with some seriousness as Wilson has to go to hospital and miss out on playing football the following day.

** Surprisingly averted at the end of WesternAnimation/WhatsOperaDoc?. It's... [[TearJerker not funny.]]

* ''WesternAnimation/StarTrekLowerDecks'': In "Envoys", Ensign Mariner and Ensign Tendi laugh at a video of Vice Admiral Gibson falling off a stage during peace negotations.

** [[AnthropomorphicFood Anton the piece of toast]] deserves special mention, as [[TheyKilledKennyAgain he dies in practically every episode he appears in]]: he's been eaten by a flock of birds, crushed by [[EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs Tina Rex]], disintegrated in a swimming pool, etc.

* Pictured above is from the ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'' episode "The Kindergarten Kid", which is basically an {{Homage}} to the [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Wile E. Coyote and Roadrunner shorts]], with Peridot in the role of Wile E. Coyote. She is about as successful in her attempts to capture her prey as Wile E. is, and she suffers quite a lot of physical abuse trying. Fortunately for her, she's got the SuperToughness necessary to be able to survive all of it with barely a scratch.
** All of the Amusing Injuries that Steven has suffered in the entire series, is deconstructed in the ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverseFuture'' episode "Growing Pains".
