History Main / AttackOFThe50FootWhatever

* In ''Manga/HimechanNoRibon'', Himeko acquires the ability to increase or decrease the size of things. She's able to transform herself into a giantess, but since she is trying to keep things secret, she seldom uses the growth ability.

* ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'': Once [[TheBrute Yammy Llargo]] releases his Zanpakuto, Ira, [[OneWingedAngel he turns into a kaiju-sized behemoth]]. [[UnstoppableRage If he gets particularly angry]], he can grow even larger, becoming truly titanic in size.

** An issue of ''ComicBook/{{Lobo}}'' has as woman spurned by the Main Man for being [[ACupAngst too flat]] jumping onto a vat of breast growing cream, causing her to grow to gigantic proportions and track him down, then giving him a taste of MarshmallowHell.
** ''ComicBook/{{Wonder Woman|1942}}'': The extra-dimensional world-destroying SufficientlyAdvancedAlien Adjudicator in ''ComicBook/JudgmentInInfinity'' is taller than the Washington Monument.

** There's Giant-Man/Yellowjacket, Giant-Girl/Wasp (ComicBook/MarvelAdventures has her specifically as the former, the latter gains the ability much later), ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}} (who could do it as Goliath), Black Goliath (who died in ''ComicBook/CivilWar''), Atlas of the ComicBook/{{Thunderbolts}}, and [[Characters/AntManHeroes Stature]] of the ComicBook/YoungAvengers, amongst others.

* An ad for Flonase shows the people of a city being menaced by a giant plant monster, another by a large grassm monster, the slogan being that "With Flonase, allergies don't have to be scary."

+ This ad for Great Western Rail shows a boy [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvelBsgjYJU]] hundreds of feet tall

* ''Manga/AttackOnTitan'': This show could be called ''Attack Of The Fifty-Foot Whatever: The Series'', to put it simply. True to form, the typical Titan is a humanoid creature about 50 feet tall, being described in the series as 15 meters. Some can grow to be hundreds of feet tall and there are several smaller variations, though even the "tiniest" Titan will still be about 9 feet tall (3 meters). The largest one in size is the Colossal Titan, standing at 60 meters (200 feet). [[spoiler:[[SerialEscalation At least until the Founding Titan is introduced]]; it's large enough for the Colossal Titan to stand on its back.]]

* One ''Literature/HarryPotter'' fanfic set in a reality where a wizard's "coming of age" had a tiny chance of changing them into a magical creature featured Hermione turning into a giantess. Needless to say, sexual frustration abounded.

* ''Fanfic/AttackOfThe100FootMegGriffin''. ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin.

* A [[Franchise/{{Digimon}} Greymon]] appears in the first episode of ''Fanfic/AnimeWorldChaos''.

* ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'': Once [[TheBrute Yammy Llargo]] releases his Zanpakuto, Ira, [[OneWingedAngel he turns into a kaiju-sized behemoth]]. [[UnstoppableRage If he gets particularly angry]], he can grow even larger, becmoing truly titanic in size.

* ''Film/{{The Blob|1958}}'': One of the key features of the Blob is that every person it consumes adds to its own biomass. When it is discovered it's about the size of a grown man's fist, but by the climax it's eaten enough to be building-sized. Potentially, it could envelop the whole planet.

* ''VideoGame/WarioWare'':
** In ''Snapped,'' Jimmy T. makes comics after all of his microgames are played, though a panel will not show if a player fails a single microgame. If all of the microgames are successfully cleared in a certain order, there will be a comic where the player gets hit in the face by a boy named Jack. A guy proceeds to give the player magic beans that, when consumed, cause the player to grow to an enormous size, giving the player an advantage over Jack, who is promptly swatted away by the player.

* Subverted in ''WesternAnimation/BuzzLightyearOfStarCommand'' with giant extremists of the planet (ironically named) Gargantua. The subversion comes through the fact that the natural height of a Gargantuan is six inches and the 6 foot terrorists are actually turning off the tech that the heroes are using to avoid this problem in their natural height (earlier, Booster was a little upset that his seat for a ceremony was a bank).

* Trope gets its name from ''Film/AttackOfThe50FootWoman'', a 1958 B-Movie about a wealthy socialite who has a close encounter with a giant alien, grows to the titular height, and has her revenge on her philandering husband. Known for its [[SpecialEffectFailure not-so-special effects]] and famous poster, it has become a [[SoBadItsGood cult classic]]. Remade as a MadeForTVMovie for [=HBO=] starring Creator/DarylHannah.

* BigCreepyCrawlies are invertebrates that are larger than anyone wants them to be. {{Giant Spider}}s are the most common BigCreepyCrawlies.

** ''VideoGame/PaperMarioTheOrigamiKing'' has the Paper Macho Soldiers, large versions of existing enemies made of papier-mâché. Most are only three to five times Mario's height, but the Paper Macho Shy Guys in Overlook Mountain are about ten times Mario's height, and the Mega Paper Macho Pokey in Scorching Sandpaper Desert is at least the size of a building. The latter is a {{deconstruction}}, as its size causes it to fall over every several seconds, which gives Mario the opening he needs to fight it--as it gets shorter as Mario destroys whatever segment is at the bottom at the time, the Mega Paper Macho Pokey falls over less and less.

* One ''Anime/DigimonTamers'' fanfic, poking fun at all the references other fanfics make to Digimon games and anime, took this, RevengeOfTheSequel, and ColonCancer [[ExaggeratedTrope Up to Eleven]] with the game-within-a-show-within-a-fic [[LongTitle Digimon Explorers: Heroes Of The Space Time Continuum, Part Sixteen: The Brave New Digital World: The Attack of The Seventy Foot Kunemon From Beyond The Stars]]. Some members of Website/FanFictionDotNet are trying to turn this into MemeticMutation, but it's not catching on since no one can remember the name. Some other members are thinking about writing DE:HOTSTC:TBNDW:TAOFTSFKFBTS because this trope can (and does) get played for RuleOfFunny a lot in the Digimon fandom.
