* A noticeable [[AvertedTrope aversion]] from ''WesternAnimation/OzzyAndDrix''. When Hector takes a nasty spill off his bike, he displays actual symptoms of a concussion. Noticeably, intense dizziness, and confusion.

* ''FanFic/HuntingTheUnicorn'' averts this. Blaine gets a concussion from a moderate fall in a fight [[spoiler: before he gets kidnapped by his StalkerWithACrush]], rambles about nonsense for half an hour, and runs off in a panic which extends the police search for him. He degenerates into having headaches that he can't communicate about properly, getting nauseous, and in the chapter ''The Red Bull,'' he's making no sense to anyone. [[spoiler: He tries to reason with his stalker, and instead watches Kurt nearly get choked out.]] Considering this took place over the later half of a day, which is stressful for ''uninjured'' people, it's pretty understandable that he starts crying when the paramedics finally load him up.

* In the ClassicDisneyShort ''ClockCleaners'', Goofy gets hit on the head while on a tall building, and wanders onto a [[ConstructionZoneCalamity construction site]] afterward, completely entranced.

* In the ''BoyMeetsWorld'' Episode "Easy Street" Eric gives himself a concussion trying to escape from a car that was buried in the snow. Upon recovering Eric is loopy, cheerful and generally appears pleasantly intoxicated.

* A {{Sealab2021}} episode had the crew trapped in a malfunctioning storage closet. Beard Guy comes in to fix the problem, but Captain Murphy beats his head in. Upon briefly regaining consciousness, he displays this trope.

* An episode of ''RenAndStimpy'' features Stimpy excusing himself because "It's time for my appointment". He walks over to a door in the wall, inserts a quarter, and the door lifts to reveal a horse. The horse kicks him in the head, sending him flying. His reaction to this is almost orgasmic.
* A noticeable [[AvertedTrope aversion]] from ''OzzyAndDrix''. When Hector takes a nasty spill off his bike, he displays actual symptoms of a concussion. Noticeably, intense dizziness, and confusion.

* In the Chinese film ''Film/KungFuGenius'', one of the BigBad's lackeys takes too many hits to the head in one fight, and instantly becomes a child-like JuCloudCuckoolander for the rest of the movie.

He degenerates into having headaches that he can't communicate about properly, getting nauseous, and as of the latest chapter ''The Red Bull,'' he's making no sense to anyone.

* Regardless of whether it's Roman legionaries, Proto-Germanic kuningōz, {{turncoat}} Gauls, or what have you, any {{Asterix}} character on the receiving end of a blow to the head or a potion-enhanced MegatonPunch will be punch-drunk for a while.

He degenerates into having headaches that he can't communicate about properly, getting nauseous, and as of the latest chapter ''The Red Bull,'' he's terrified of going to sleep and makes no sense to anyone. [[spoiler: He also tries to reason with his stalker and ends up watching Kurt nearly get choked out before Wes, David, and Kurt's family find them.]] Considering this took place from a couple hours after school to at least ten-thirty at night, it's pretty understandable that he starts crying when the paramedics finally load him up.

* In the ''ChipAndDale'' short "Working For Peanuts", DonaldDuck chases the two chipmunks until slamming his head into a wall after they escape through a hole. He then sits there with swirly eyes and a toothy grin on his face; later on in the short the elephant he was taking care of finds him [[OverlyLongGag still like this]].
** A similar one happens in the short "Dragon Around" where DonaldDuck is building a road and the chipmunks' tree is in the way, so he has to get rid of it. When his crane (which the chipmunks think is a dragon) gets damaged so that the shovel's teeth are removed so it can no longer dig, he resorts to try ramming the tree with it, only for the chipmunks to loosen all the screws/bolts/nuts, so as Donald is charging towards the tree, his crane falls a part leaving only him charging towards the tree, then hitting his head on it, leaving him dazed. Dale then imitates Donald after finding it funny.

* In the ''BoyMeetsWorld'' Episode "Easy Street" Erik gives himself a concussion trying to escape from a car that was buried in the snow. Upon recovering Erik is loopy, cheerful and generally appears pleasantly intoxicated.

* Daffy Duck gets rather loopy near the end of ''DuckAmuck'', reciting "The Village Blacksmith" while banging a hammer on an anvil that the artist's pencil changes into a bomb.

* On ''DaysOfOurLives'' Nick Fallon was concussed while disposing of a bomb. This induced a euphoric state, during which he flew to Las Vegas and married a hooker named China Lee.

* On ''TheOffice'', {{jerkass}} Dwight starts acting uncharacteristically nice after crashing his car. The others eventually realize that he has a concussion and take him to the hospital. During this bout of identity amnesia Dwight also shows absentmindedness and compulsive behavior not unlike fictional portrayals of being high on marijuana.
