A tactic mostly seen in WesternAnimation: The villain usually sneaks up behind the target and throws a large burlap sack over her head and carries her off to his hideout; this usually happens to a DamselInDistress or SnoopingLittleKid. The target is typically female, but it can happen to male characters, just not as often. This can sometimes be a problem involving HollywoodDensity - adult humans typically weigh 150-200 pounds, so one has to be very strong to casually pick up a load like that by themselves, especially since the person in the bag is frequently not just 150-200 pounds of dead weight, but instead is actively struggling to get out of the bag and away from the person carrying it.

* This happens to the heroes in one episode of the ''WesternAnimation/DungeonsAndDragons'' cartoon, courtesy of a bunch of snail-like creatures.
