* ''ComicBook/TheMightyThor'': Odin briefly does this to [[Franchise/IronMan Iron Man]] at one point, when the latter questions the wisdom of his decisions. He doesn't give Tony enough knowledge to drive him insane or kill him, but just enough of a glimpse of the cosmos to humble him and paralyze him for a while.
