* During part 3 of ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure Jojo's Bizarre Adventure]]'', Polnareff is regressed to a child of less than five years and runs from his pursuer Alessy into a dead-end room. Once said pursuer breaks into the room, he assesses the possible hiding places -- under a bucket, inside of a teddy bear, and inside of a clock -- by smashing them with his ax. [[spoiler: In fact, Polnareff took a mirror from its frame and hid behind it inside of a fish tank. He reveals himself once the enemy has already come close enough to be ambushed.]]

** ''{{Literature/Pyramids}}'': Teppic hides Ptraci in a stone sarcophagus. When Dios leads the search for her (with such intensity Tepic is surprised he [[EyeBeams isn't leaving little trails of molten stone on the walls]]), before Teppic's had a chance to get her out, he sees the slightly ajar lid, immediately moves to it... and it's empty (turns out she'd gone to the bathroom).

* In ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory'', Sid looks around his room for Woody and sees an upside-down milk crate where Woody was hiding. He lifts up the crate, expecting to see Woody... but sees nothing, because Woody was {{Container Cling}}ing onto the milk crate. In a deleted scene, Sid would have found Woody hiding under the milk crate at an earlier point in the movie, which is why it seemed like the obvious hiding spot when Sid was looking for Woody this time.
