5	----
6	* ''WebAnimation/NCHProductions'':
7	** In "[[VideoGame/MonsterHunterWorld MHWorld]] shots: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjOL9XYk07k State of SnS]]", the last hunter messing around in the background tries to clutch claw onto Deviljho's face only for it to casually swing him into its mouth.
8	** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcEfZg4IFkk Monstie Shots: Dodogama Life]]" consists almost solely of this as Dodogama spends half an hour napping while monsters, lynians, and hunters go about their business in the background.
9	* [[https://clips.twitch.tv/TriangularTiredSalamanderWTRuck This CSGO coach]] falling off the stage when the camera focuses on the teams duing an e-sports event.
10	* ''WebVideo/FiveSecondFilms'': An in-universe example happens in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-_YtCF3TXo "The Worst Extra in Hollywood".]]
11	* When Linkara is talking to [[spoiler: Allen's corpse]] in part 4 of the ''WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall'' movie, there's a box labeled "[[WebVideo/DiamandaHagan Diamanda Hagan's Minions]]".
12	* During ''WebVideo/BadCreepypasta''[='=]s riff on ''Jane The Killer: The Real Story'', [=Vinnce12=] went into rant on how clichéd and poorly-written the story was, until his internet connection was killed off in the middle of his rant.
13	* Creator/BradJones' cats often pop onscreen unexpectedly.
14	** During the ''[[WebVideo/TheCinemaSnob Cinema Snob]]'' review of ''Nudist Colony of The Dead'' his cat wanders onscreen and watches as he throws a crumpled up newspaper across the room.
15	** The video "[[WebVideo/BradTries Brad Tries]] [[http://thecinemasnob.com/2010/07/31/brad-tries-durian-toffee.aspx Durian Toffee"]] could just as plausibly be titled "Brad's Cat Has Fun", given that it hops around on the couch behind Brad, falls down behind it, gets out, and ''falls back in'' multiple times.
16	** Then there's [[http://thecinemasnob.com/2010/06/24/brad-tries-deep-throat-energy-drink.aspx "Brad Tries Deep Throat energy drink"]] where halfway through, Lloyd starts going insane behind the curtain.
17	--->'''Brad:''' Hmm, wonder if Lloyd's been getting into this drink too.
18	** In [[http://thecinemasnob.com/2010/08/06/brad-tries-urge.aspx "Brad Tries Urge",]] Lloyd randomly pops up from behind the couch.
19	** And then there's the funny ''foreground'' event in Jillian's review of ''Eclipse'', where Lloyd suddenly pokes his head up right in front of the camera.
20	*** Happens again in ''[[http://thecinemasnob.com/2011/03/10/brad-tries-crystal-from-pepsi.aspx Brad Tries Crystal from Pepsi]]'', prompting Brad to say "[[SarcasmMode This is the most professional show on the site.]]"
21	** In "Brad Tries Jones Soda Christmas Packs", the cat has her own show in the background.
22	** In "Brad Tries Sperm", Brad has to caution his cat against sniffing the curiously-named canned cocktail he's about to consume, as that would just make the video ''all kinds of illegal''.
23	** At the end of the ''Film/RockItsYourDecision'' ''WebVideo/DVDRHell'' review, Brad describes just how messed up the movie was, and how it detailed the utter ruination of the main character as he is brainwashed. As he states that he is sure that, ten years later, the main character would hang himself, Lloyd picked that '''EXACT''' moment to jump up onto the couch as Brad smiles.
24	** In one episode, Lloyd starts meowing quite loudly off-screen, to which Brad reacts by assuring the cat they will drink the drink, which shuts the cat up.
25	* In the ''WebAnimation/CartoonHooligans'' episode "What If Superman Got Sick?!", while Batman is comforting [[ComicBook/MartianManhunter J'onn J'onnz]], the rest of the Justice League are visible beating up Superman in the background.
26	* ''[[Creator/{{Dropout}} CollegeHumor / Dropout]]'':
27	** The Originals video "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_YPslQ7UWs Viral Video Politician]]" is purposely built with multiple examples going on, and also includes lots of tropes including speaking with a VaderBreath.
28	** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oISLyJDe_ds&list=ELAbgPJNk4vQM&index=4&feature=plpp_video This]] College Humor video has a couple:
29	*** Pat and Dan are playing mummy-tag with toilet paper, and run through the background of several shots.
30	*** David mentions that "Amir killed one of the busboys":
31	-->'''Sarah:''' That did not happen.
32	-->'''David:''' Yeah, I made that one up.
33	*** The second one is funnier, since after Sarah and David say in unison "And that's my impression of a drunk person," behind Sarah, you can see Amir strangling a busboy to death.
34	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtFD9B_zHUo This]] episode of ''Comicstorian''. Watch closely....
35	* The dialogue boxes in ''WebSite/{{Cracked}}'''s "[[http://www.cracked.com/blog/revisiting-old-school-text-adventures-as-a-jaded-modern-gamer/ Revisiting Old-School Text Adventures as a Jaded Modern Gamer]].
36	** Also on ''Cracked'', while everyone else is talking about Captain America, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9YX2XCyVVkE Michael gets ... patriotic.]]
37	* ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kj76xpSlcrg Cruisin' (Bruno Sigrist e Mariana Zink)]]'': The dancer's moves even make the girl with the guitar to start laughing and needing to restart the song.
38	* At one point in the Cyzstix AnalogHorror parody ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9C2_31Lv4tg The Analog Horror of Annoying Orange]]'', he shows a screenshot from a fake website dedicated to hatred of WebVideo/TheAnnoyingOrange. For a split second while scrolling through it, an unrelated post on the website appears that simply reads 'This new update fucking sucks' above a screencap of ''VideoGame/AngryBirds2''.
39	* ''WebVideo/DesertBusForHope 5'': [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNvIHTgjFHE Game of Thrones on Kazoo and Guitar]] challenge has Creator/MontyPython horses in the background, as well as a flying stuffed dragon.
40	* ''WebVideo/DoctorHorriblesSingAlongBlog''. You could watch Penny and Hammer on their date scene, or you could look in the background and see Doctor Horrible stalking them in a hilariously inept manner, even pretending to be a soup kitchen worker.
41	* Ever since Creator/DougWalker started doing vlogs of ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' with his friends Jason and Jori Laws, their cat Naruto has been making appearances on par with [[Creator/BradJones Lloyd]] and [[WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment Oreo]].
42	* ''WebVideo/Formula1'': In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWfUg5ja90k "Top 10 Moments of Pit Lane Drama"]] during the clip showing Robert Kubica and Sutil's 2010 crash in Hungary sharp eyed viewers can spot Nico Rosberg casually driving by in the pit lane background with a missing right rear wheel.
43	* The Website/{{Google}} Doodle for "[[https://www.google.com/doodles/summer-solstice-2017-northern-hemisphere Summer Solstice 2017]]" has a mouse reading in his den just as a bird from above pecked a hole in his roof. Meanwhile, if you looked to your left, a worm crawling underground just happened to be millimeters from the mouse's den, crawling away with WideEyesAndShrunkenIrises once it became aware the bird's presence.
44	* Used often in [=Djy1991's=] version of ''Fanfic/HalfLifeFullLifeConsequences''. One example includes someone in the background randomly firing cans around with the Gravity Gun, whilst John Freeman is reading the email from his Mom.
45	** The third and fourth videos, ''Hero Beggining'' and ''Free Man'', are filled with this, often involving the [=GMan=].
46	* A frequent happening in ''WebVideo/{{Highcraft}}'', since the viewer is locked to Cooper's perspective.
47	** "AETHER HIGHCRAFT": You can see Sam and Irushtheworld imitating sex acts on a bed in the background.
48	** "2b2stoned": Joko and Sam have a couple funny exchanges when they're separated from the rest of the group, but especially:
49	---> '''Joko:''' Saaaaam? Whatcha buildin' there, bud?
50	* In ''WebAnimation/IfTheEmperorHadATextToSpeechDevice'', after Emperor finally agrees to [[ItMakesSenseInContext put Kitten's armour back on]] and moves on to other things, the Custodian can be heard breathing in relief for a few moments.
51	* The lead of the ElectronicMusic band iVardensphere explains the equipment and methods he uses in making his music. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tr_g8kY8Lk4 Extremely Not safe for work hilarity ensues in the background]].
52	* Any episode of ''WebVideo/TheJokerBlogs'' is sure to include many blink-and-you'll-miss-it inside jokes about the DC universe. This comes to its logical conclusion during episode 18, which was in the form of a TV news broadcast. The news ticker at the bottom of the screen consists of ''nothing'' but comic book in-jokes (over 25 different Batman villains/allies are referenced), to the point that it mught be necessary to watch the video twice -- once to watch the video and the other time to watch the news ticker.
53	* ''WebVideo/JonTron'' has unscripted ones in the form of whatever Jacques the parrot is doing for that particular shot, be it taking a flapping leap off elsewhere, weave around as Jon [[LargeHam hams it up]], or simply nibble on stuff, ears included.
54	* WebVideo/{{Kitboga}} is a scambaiter popular on Platform/{{Twitch}} and Platform/YouTube. In later installments, some of his green-screened backgrounds contain [[CallBack references]] to stuff from previous videos, such as a plaque reading "Proud member of the Illuminati" (scam in which the scammer tried to get him to pay to join the Illuminati) and a cup of milk and a sponge sitting next to each other on a table (reference to a gag with "Windows RG" parody in which Clippy replaced anything within the Word document with the phrase "milk sponge.")
55	* On lightsen's [[https://youtu.be/IoV3m_Tz4Cw?t=3m12s Twitch Plays Pokémon Animated]], the [[VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue Cerulean Cave guard]] has a ... bad time.
56	* ''WebVideo/LinusTechTips'':
57	** "[[https://youtu.be/Bw7Zu3LoeG8?t=42 The MORE EXPENSIVE Mac Pro... - Rackmount Edition]]": When Linus hits the rackmount Mac Pro box, it causes the "Pro" to fall off, then write itself back on.
58	** "[[https://youtu.be/Nz9b0oJw69I?t=565 I'm taking this into my own hands...]]": When Linus accidentally hits a ceramic dinosaur model while gesturing, sparks fly off of it.
59	* WebVideo/MatthewSantoro:
60	** In ''20 Haunting Halloween Facts'', Matt says, "I mean, come on, ghosts? They don't exist! Never once in my life have I ever seen a ghost. And I never will." While he's saying that, a ghost walks in the background.
61	** In ''Raygun vs. Fire!'', Matt says that it would be cool if people had rayguns, because they would be able to put out fires without breaking a sweat. While he's saying that, a fire starts in the background, and Hugo puts it out with his ray gun.
62	** In ''20 Valentines Day facts'', Matt talks about how Verona, Italy receives thousands of letters addressed to [[Theatre/RomeoAndJuliet Juliet Capulet]] every Valentine's Day. He says that it must be bad for the girls named Juliet who live there, because their mailboxes will be filled with letters from lonely men who have nothing better to do than to write to a girl who never existed. In the background, Eugene is about to deliver his letter to Juliet, but then runs off crying.
63	* Used for [[CrossesTheLineTwice incredibly dark laughs]] in the WebVideo/{{Markiplier}} Animated episode about ''VideoGame/FatalFrameII'': Mark (as Mio) sings a song about how good he is at games, while [[spoiler:Mayu can be seen getting thrown into a pit]].
64	* ''WebVideo/MetaBallStudios'': In the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTPwbVqU6lc "FICTIONAL STARSHIPS Size COMPARISON"]] video, a Covenant cruiser from ''Franchise/{{Halo}}'' (which is not part of the actual line-up of compared starships) can be seen flying over New York before glassing the city.
65	* In the ''WebAnimation/MonsterHigh'' episode "Ghostly Gossip", just at the beginning there is a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment where behind Cleo, a student is being attacked from her locker by tentacles similar to the image on this trope's main page.
66	* In ''WebVideo/NarutoTheAbridgedComedyFandubSpoofSeriesShow'', the episode "FARTABET NO JUTSU~!" has Naruto shows Kakashi he can fart the alphabet. While Kakashi and Sakura start talking, Naruto can still be heard farting the alphabet in the background.
67	* ''[[https://youtu.be/X18gpghQ3FY Nostalgia Critic & Angry Video Game Nerd Finally Face Off]]'': The first ''[[WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd Nerd]] vs. [[WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic Critic]]'' battle. After the Nerd chastises the Critic for not shutting the door after coming into his house, just before the door closes, Toucan Sam flies by.
68	* In ''Film/NoobLaQueteLegendaire'', Omega Zell sees that his idol Fantöm has a new set of armor and decided to take a screencap with him. When the screencap is shown for a few seconds, some other players that happened to be present turn ou to have photobombed it.
69	* ''Film/ProjectMillion'': After receiving a MindScrew from The Wire, Spazz spends several minutes in the background trying to make sense of it.
70	* ''WebAnimation/RedVsBlue'': Thanks to its {{Machinima}}, you might be able to catch some of the cast doing their own stuff around the set while other characters are talking in the foreground.
71	** The most memorable is probably Agent Washington using quite a lot of explosives to dispose of a recently deceased fellow agent's body.
72	** When Church is getting the others to fix up his legs, and in the background the red's jeep which he is unknowingly controlling is going everywhere. Soon after it almost kills Sarge.
73	** Unintentional Funny Background Events occasionally occurred in older episodes when characters not currently in use ended up in a shot. Perhaps most notable was a brief glimpse of a blue soldier who looked like Caboose in an early episode, declared to be Caboose's evil brother Cecil, who returns to kill Caboose in one of the alternate finales for season 5.
74	* ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsS-ZH38nTU Rhythm is Magic: Peckish Pony 2]]'': This video combines ''VideoGame/RhythmHeaven'' and ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic''. While Pinkie Pie is busy putting her twist on "Munchy Monk 2", Twilight Sparkle can be seen in the background trying (and [[EpicFail hilariously failing]]) to play the trumpet.
75	** Mr. Ben's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1zbGFGQTq0 Remix AppleAppleApple]] is rife with these. There's brick jokes and funny background events aplenty, particularly in the scenes involving Pinkie Pie, naturally.
76	* [[https://roosterteeth.com/episode/backwardz-compatible-2018-doki-doki-3 When]] Creator/RoosterTeeth's Miles Luna and Kyle Taylor did a LetsPlay of ''Visualnovel/DokiDokiLiteratureClub'', the WhamShot made them scream so much it startled Josh Ornelas, who was working in the background. But then Josh first gives knowing smirks that made them afraid... and then started looking back to check on the two every now and then, which makes the already squirming duo even more disturbed ("just him watching us just makes me know ''something''..."). To make it worse, Josh brings in another guy to [[PassThePopcorn watch along with him]], doubling the fun while annoying Miles and Kyle further.
77	* In the stinger for Episode 8 of ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'', crime lord Roman Torchwick is seen poring over his next heist. If one looks closely at the map behind him during the scene, they can see that he's labeled a section of it with "Stupid Cops."
78	** In Episode 1 of season 2, while Sun and Neptune talk, a massive FoodFight erupts behind them without them noticing. Jaune gets thrown into a window and slides down it.
79	*** Later in the same episode, there's Roman's [[BlatantLies extremely mature]] expressions when Cinder is chewing out Mercury and Emerald for going after Tukson. Emerald retaliated by stealing his lighter and sticking her tongue out at him, which neither Cinder nor Mercury seem to notice.
80	* In the ''WebVideo/ScottTheWoz'' episode "The Bible Game", a person is seen failing a backflip in the background while Scott was singing a musical number near the end.
81	* ''{{WebVideo/sillypplproductions2}}'': In "Halloween Special 2012: Celebrities and Calendars", Miss Piggy, Froggie, and Geico (stuffed animals) attack the Joker.
82	** In "Our April Fool's Day Special 2013," Batman is seen sticking out of Surge's backpack.
83	* This is mainly the idea in SMP films' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTVfN54vLhs Epic]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evDVlXQiG_4 Nothing]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxtLu2LBiUs Series]].
84	* Speed Demo Archives runs the Awesome Games Done Quick charity event, where live speedruns are attempted to raise donations for charitable causes. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CvzIb53Lcno Speedrunner sinister1]] plays the original ''VideoGame/PunchOut'' on an actual NES, no mean feat for a game that is already NintendoHard. The thing is, he's playing it ''blindfolded'' so he has to rely solely on audio cues and pattern memory to play. He actually goes all the way to Mike Tyson himself while blindfolded and using no continues. The editor in charge of the stream sneaks in his own commentary on this feat [[http://youtu.be/CvzIb53Lcno?t=39m11s in the middle of the Super Macho Man fight]]--he changes part of the run's caption from "Estimate: 1:00:00" (meaning sinister1 is expected to finish the game in an hour) to "Estimate: [[Franchise/StarWars Jedi]]."
85	* Ever since [[WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment the Spoony One]] got a new dog, you can see her in the background having fun in a number of the [=VLogs.=]
86	* ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVBgj3ys6Gk Spycrabamelldansen]]'' where the main focus in on the Spy trying (poorly) to do [[JustForFun/CaramelldansenVid Caramelldansen]], while people in the background are doing normal things (at least, normal for ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2''). However, about a third of the way in, an Engineer spawns in on top of the Spy and starts dancing, before the cameraman kills him. Then, about two-thirds of the way in, another Spy, who has, until this point, been just running around shooting people, decides to get in on the act, and actually does a much better job of Spy Crabbing in the background.
87	* [[CreatorThumbprint Very common]] in the works by ''WebAnimation/STBlackST''. In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X82XR0Z61hc RED Team's Usual Day]] for example, a RED Soldier can be seen plowing Tracer from Overwatch. [[FullyClothedNudity It's worth noting neither are naked while this happens]]. Its to the point that for "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJIDLGuqfmc stu_pidface's_whimsical_shenanigans.pie]]" he is outright challenging the viewers to find all the hidden stuff happening in the background in the video.
88	* At the end of ''WebVideo/SwordArtOnlineAbridged'''s sixth episode, Asuna and Kirito are having a heartwarming talk and opening up to each other... while the VillainOfTheWeek [[BlackComedy is getting beaten to death by his former guildmates on the other side of a tree.]] Which eventually starts intruding on the "foreground" event.
89	-->'''Asuna:''' Dammit, Kirito! I'm ''trying'' to be nice and have a moment here! Which isn't easy with ''some people'' being SO LOUD!\
90	'''Kains:''' (''offscreen'') Sorry, Asuna, we're just about done here!\
91	'''Bad Guy:''' (''offscreen'') Wait, no no no NO NO NO- (''{{sickening crunch}}'')\
92	'''Asuna:''' [[ComedicSociopathy Ah, that's better.]]
93	* In one video of ''WebVideo/TheTourettesGuy'', Danny screams '''''PIIIIIIIIIIIIISS!''''' so loud into his phone, a page on the calender behind him falls onto the previous month.
94	* In ''[[https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/473402 tWHYlight]],'' after the boys are done watching ''{{Film/Twilight}},'' the concession stand behind them is advertising "Fat", "More Fat", "Heart Attack", "Sugar Drink", "Liquid Poison", and "Hidden Messages".
95	* WebVideo/TheUnluckyTug:
96	** In his ''Literature/TheRailwaySeries'' ranking video, he explains that ''More About Thomas the Tank Engine'' was written so ''WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends'' could have more Thomas-centric stories to adapt, accompanied by a clip of Thomas disappearing. As he continues talking, Percy and Toby glance at each other and shout "hooray!" in the background.
97	** In the ''Franchise/StarWars'' original trilogy review, some text saying "where is he going?" tracks a character running to the left of the screen in the Rebel Base in ''Film/ANewHope''.
98	* In ''WebAnimation/ZeroPunctuation'''s ''VideoGame/SuperPaperMario'' review, when Yahtzee shows the Dictionary.com definition of "game" (while complaining about padding), the other tab in his browser is titled "Super Huge Tits".
