17A character is subjected to something which is clearly, obviously, incontrovertibly and usually quite messily fatal, or at the very least extremely painful.
18
19There's a [[{{Beat}} moment's pause for comic effect]]...
20
21And from the wreckage emerges a muffled "I'm OK.", sometimes accompanied by a thumbs-up. This trope is ''always'' PlayedForLaughs, and exists as a product of RuleOfFunny.
22
23Compare/Contrast [[HesOkay They're Okay]], in which another character notes that the injured party isn't dead and in a usually serious situation.
24
25See also NonSequiturThud for another common outcome of this scenario. Not to be confused with ''[[VideoGame/ImOK I'm O.K]]'', a video game. Compare and contrast ObviouslyNotFine where they say the line, but everyone can see it's not true.

41-->[[spoiler:'''Lyon:''' Reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated.]]
42* Lampshaded wonderfully in the [=CP9=] arc of ''Manga/OnePiece''. After the entire crew gets [[spoiler:smashed through a wall by a ''runaway train'']], Luffy laughs off the danger. The rest of the crew, buried in rubble, say "Don't be stupid... we're not rubber like you... there's no way we're... ABSOLUTELY FINE!" they burst out of the rubble at the last bit, with little more than superficial bruising.
43* Dia in ''Manga/PokemonAdventures'' occasionally crashes into something as a RunningGag. He then appears with Pokeballs in his eyes while saying "everything is fine". [[spoiler:This is played for drama when he has his DisneyDeath.]]
44* In the Act 1 ColdOpen of ''Anime/SailorMoonCrystal,'' this is {{subverted|Trope}}, after TheKlutz Usagi's extended {{Pratfall}} StaircaseTumble down her household stairs and an OffScreenCrash.
45-->'''Usagi's Mother:''' Are you alright?\
46'''Usagi:''' ''[yelling offscreen]'' I'm ''not'' alright! ''[enters rubbing rear]'' Ouuuuuch.

52* ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe3'': As he tucks Agnes ([[ItMakesSenseInContext who vows to find a unicorn in the woods tomorrow morning]]) in her triple-decker bunk bed, Gru goes to walk away and forgets he's standing on a ladder, causing him to fall to the floor. He exclaims that he's okay, [[HeavySleeper but Agnes is still fast asleep]].

55* In ''WesternAnimation/TheLegoBatmanMovie'', a cat gets roasted by lava, yet still squeaks, "I'm okay!" This reinforces that, despite the devastation being unleashed, this is a NobodyCanDie movie.
56* In ''WesternAnimation/MonstersVsAliens'' [[BlobMonster B.O.B]] is repeatedly stepped on by the huge rampaging robot.
57-->'''B.O.B:''' I got him you guys, I got him! ''[stomp]'' Don't worry, I'm wearing him down! ''[stomp]'' Hot dogs! Ha! ''[stomp]''
58* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsRainbowRocks'': At the end, after her second SmokeOut, Trixie tries to sneak away in the public, but slips and falls behind the bleachers because of her [[ImpracticallyFancyOutfit impractical dress]]. Then comes her voice...

60* {{Double Subver|sion}}ted in ''WesternAnimation/TheRoadToElDorado'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUD1D5Nf-3c when Tzekel-Kan's giant stone jaguar storms the palace:]]

68[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
69* ''Film/Barbie2023'': Stereotypical Barbie says this after falling off the roof of her house.
70* ''Film/DeathProof''. [[spoiler:After a tense car chase that had Creator/ZoeBell frantically holding onto the hood of the car, it ends with the cars skidding off the road and one of the protagonists opening fire on their attacker. She gets back in her car as he drives away, and sits there with her friend, shaking, clearly agitated by the whole experience. Zoe is nowhere to be seen for about 15 seconds, [[MoodWhiplash until she pops up in front, waves, and quickly says "I'm okay!"]]]]
71* ''Film/DraculaDeadAndLovingIt'': Dracula falls down a flight of stairs, then tosses off an "I'm fine!" A moment later, you can see his ''shadow'' limping up the stairs behind him.
72* ''Film/FreddyGotFingered'': Andy (the kid ChewToy who keeps getting hurt throughout the movie, says it after [[spoiler:getting [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction chopped to pieces by plane propellers]].]] The line was very obviously dubbed in to supposedly avoid an NC-17 rating, despite [[KilledOffForReal never seeing Andy on screen again]].
73* ''Film/{{Goosebumps|2015}}'': Lorraine hits a werewolf with her car, bewildered by the event that has just unfolded, she reassures her audience "I'm okay... ''[airbag inflates]'' I'm still okay!"
74* In the opening sequence of ''Film/HotShots'', a fighter pilot slips while trying to repair his craft at cruising altitude and [[GroinAttack gets racked by the tailfin at several hundred miles per hour]]. In a [[InstantSoprano high-pitched voice]] he informs his co-pilot, "I'm okay!"
75* ''Film/{{How to Be a Latin Lover}}'': Maximo's father is a trucker who has been driving all night to get back home. He starts nodding off as he approaches and drives straight through the house. After the truck comes to rest, he shouts out "I'm OK!" [[SubvertedTrope Then it]] [[EveryCarIsAPinto explodes]].
76* ''Film/ItsAWonderfulLife'': Uncle Billy drunkenly walks off screen, then [[OffscreenCrash we hear a crash]]. "I'm all right... I'm allllll right!" In reality it was a stagehand knocking something over off-camera and Creator/ThomasMitchell [[ThrowItIn improvising to save the take]]. The stagehand thought he would be fired; instead Frank Capra gave him a bonus.
77* ''Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail'': Concorde collapses after taking an arrow in the chest, but interrupts Lancelot's eulogy of him by saying "I'm not quite dead, sir."
78* ''Film/NotAnotherTeenMovie'': Janey shouts this after she [[FloorboardFailure falls through the staircase into a basement]] and a table and lamp fall on top of her.
79* In ''Film/ThePinkPantherStrikesAgain'', Inspector Clouseau vaults over a banister, falls down some stairs, and announces "That felt good."
80* Subverted in ''Film/PulpFiction'', which is understandable in the post-rape context.
81-->'''Butch:''' You okay?\
82'''Marsellus:''' Naw, man. I'm pretty fuckin' far from okay.
83* ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'': During one web-slinging routine in New York, Spider-Man misses a shot (showing he's still somewhat inexperienced) and painfully lands on his face on the roof of a building. He's quickly back to his feet while calling out "I'm okay! I'm okay!" to nobody in particular.
84* ''Franchise/StarWars'': In ''Film/TheRiseOfSkywalker'', [=C3PO=] is treated with the [[AndZoidberg usual lack of consideration]], lampshaded when our heroes fall through quicksand and end up in an underground cavern.
85-->'''Poe:''' Finn?! Rey?!\
86'''Threepio:''' I know you didn't ask me, Sir, but I am fine.
87[[/folder]]

91[[/folder]]
92
93[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
94* In one episode of ''Series/TheBigBangTheory'', Leonard hits his head while getting something from under the table at a restaurant.

97'''Leonard:''' I'm not okay!
98%%* [=McLean=] Stevenson on ''Series/TheCarolBurnettShow'' the night after being [[ActorLeavesCharacterDies killed off]].
99%%* Frequently used by Series/CousinSkeeter.
100* In the ''Series/{{Eureka}}'' episode "Welcome Back Carter", Sheriff Andy's car is suddenly crushed flat with him in it. "I'm OK" comes complete with thumbs up.
101* ''Series/FatherTed'' has [[ButtMonkey Mrs. Doyle]], who'd fallen down the stairs and been crippled earlier in the episode, fall down ''again'' (with a chorus of "OHHOLYMARYMOTHEROFGOD" to the thumps), get up and pronounce, "[[PercussiveMaintenance I'm cured!]]".
102* Rachel does one of these on ''Series/{{Friends}}'' in a first-season episode when she falls off her balcony--she ends up swinging by her ankle from the Christmas lights that she was taking down.
103* This is Captain Man's catchphrase in ''Series/HenryDanger''. He is [[NighInvulnerability Nigh Invulnerable]] but can still feel pain.
104* ''Series/MythBusters'':
105** This trope is probably the major reason that Tory Belleci's [[NeverLiveItDown infamous bike accident]] is considered an [[AmusingInjuries Amusing Injury]] and [[Funny/MythBusters one of the funniest moments on the show]].
106** Adam also tends to do this, saying (often, even adding an "Ouch..." occasionally) "...I'm okay."
107** They once blew out their crash dummy Buster in a controlled explosion to cause decompression in an airplane. Just as Adam and Jamie said they might have finally killed off their crash dummy, someone among the crew exploring the wreckage cried out "BUSTER MADE IT!", in a rare spot of real-life perfect timing.
108* In ''Series/TheRedGreenShow'', Bill doesn't say (or at least isn't heard saying) "I'm OK", but he always gives a thumbs-up at the end of the segment to indicate that yes, he survived again.
109* Frequently used by Raven Symone in the series ''Series/ThatsSoRaven''. In one episode, however, after sustaining an injury from a skating accident, she says "[[InvertedTrope I am not okay!]]"
110[[/folder]]
111
112[[folder:Music]]
113* "It's Alright Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)" from Music/BobDylan's ''Music/BringingItAllBackHome''.
114* "I'm OK" by ''Music/LittleBig'' is about a bar full of people getting progressively drunker (with the implication that many of them are DrowningTheirSorrows) and engaging in AlcoholInducedStupidity even as the chorus insists [[TitleDrop they are ok]]. Only in the last chorus does Sonya finally acknowledge that she is actually "drunk as fuck."
115[[/folder]]
116
117[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
118* In ''TabletopGame/{{Scion}}'', the Charisma Knack "Never Say Die" which lets you give your allies Willpower points equal to the damage you took by invoking this trope.
119[[/folder]]
120
121[[folder:Theme Parks]]
122* In ''Theatre/TheEighthVoyageOfSindbad'' show at [[Ride/UniversalStudios Universal's Islands of Adventure]], it's a running gag for Kabob to say this whenever he falls down.
123[[/folder]]
124
125[[folder:Video Games]]
126* Played for laughs in ''VideoGame/CrashTwinsanity'', where Cortex is knocked into a (seemingly bottomless) pit and shouts "I'm okay! [[SpikesOfDoom The spikes broke my fall...]]"
127* EDI says this verbatim in the ''Citadel'' DLC of ''VideoGame/MassEffect3''. Her mobile platform suddenly short-circuits and essentially falls unconscious only to then pop back up saying that she's okay. Since one of her eyes is askew, Shepard and Joker aren't convinced.
128* Coming home to Elena in ''VideoGame/PandorasTower'' when her ForcedTransformation is still in the early stages will make her hurriedly tell Aeron to be careful not to slip in the purple ooze she's leaking on the floor, or not to come too close to her in case he gets messy himself. An example of this [[DefiedTrope not]] being played for laughs; some variations on the scene are even quite heart-wrenching as she's obviously on the verge of freaking out completely, but still manages to be more worried over Aeron putting himself in harm's way for her sake.
129* One of Eugene's dying quotes in ''VideoGame/{{Whacked}}'' is "I'm okay!", although he then thinks to himself, "This sucks".
130[[/folder]]
131
132[[folder:Visual Novels]]
133* In the ''VisualNovel/TokimekiMemorial'' series, Miyuki Kotobuki is the master of this. No matter if the Ferris-wheel makes an unexpected brutal stop that makes her hit the cabin's floor hard, or if she's ''run over by trucks'', or if she nearly passed out from training at ''VideoGame/DanceDanceRevolution'' for ''a whole day, continually, without eating or drinking'' (and getting her feet ''very'' grazed in the process; all of this to regain the trust of her partner who was angry at her lack of focus and left her), she'll ''always'' say, in a dazed voice and swirly eyes: "Daijoubi-, daijoubi-" (a Miyuki-version of "daijoubu", "I'm okay").
134[[/folder]]
135
136[[folder:Web Animation]]
137* ''WebAnimation/DCSuperHeroGirls'': In "Fall into Super Hero High", from Killer Frost accidentally covering the ground in ice, Starfire and Star Sapphire slip and go into a SlipperySkid. Then, from offscreen, one of them says "I'm okay!"
138* A staple of ''VideoGame/GarrysMod'' animations involving the [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 Scout]].
139-->'''Scout:''' That didn't hurt!
140* In the ''WebAnimation/HomestarRunner'' short "Strongest Man in the World" (a remake of ''Literature/TheHomestarRunnerEntersTheStrongestManInTheWorldContest''), Señor Havin'-A-Little-Trouble gets crushed under a pile of grapes, but afterwards waves his arm and calls out "I still alive!" This is a callback to the WebAnimation/StrongBadEmail "kids' book", which had Strong Bad vandalizing the children's book version and writing "This blue guy died," on Señor's page.
141* [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] on ''WebAnimation/MightyMagiswords'' with multiple characters saying "Signs of life" after something painful happening.
142* ''WebAnimation/RedVsBlue'', Season 5:
143-->'''Caboose:''' ''[some time after "donating" blood to an alien child]'' I'm okay! I'm okay!\
144''[Caboose collapses to the ground]''\
145'''Caboose:''' I'm not okay!
146* A non-verbal example in ''VideoGame/TeamSonicRacing: Overdrive'': after leaping out of his car to deflect a bomb directed at Sonic, Knuckles tumbles onto the road before getting back in his car. Afterwards, he gives Sonic a thumbs up and a confident grin while his face is missing a tooth and sporting some welts.
147[[/folder]]
148
149[[folder:Webcomics]]
150* ''Webcomic/SleeplessDomain'': In the [[https://www.sleeplessdomain.com/comic/chapter-1-page-16 first chapter]], Sally attempts to take out a large monster with her [[PlayingWithFire fire powers]], which it proceeds to NoSell before ramming Sally into a wall. Sally promptly gives her teammates a thumbs-up, to show that she isn't ''too'' badly hurt.
151[[/folder]]
152
153[[folder:Web Videos]]
154* DoubleSubverted in ''WebVideo/AuralnautsStarWars'', after Duke falls down a pit in Cloud City, to his Uncle Anakin's horror:
155-->'''Duke:''' Hey! Uncle Anakin!\
156'''Anakin:''' Duke?!\
157'''Duke:''' I'm okay! I can't believe it!\
158'''Anakin:''' No way! You're alive?!\
159''[a trap door opens underneath Duke; he falls through with an echoing scream]''\
160'''Anakin:''' ''DUUUUUUKE!'' ...''DUUU-''\
161'''Duke:''' Hey!\
162'''Anakin:''' Duke?!\
163'''Duke:''' I'm still okay!\
164'''Anakin:''' ''[relieved laughter]'' Jesus Christ! You're a maniac, Duke!
165* In ''WebVideo/JonTron'''s review of the UsefulNotes/{{NES}} Franchise/StarWars games, he takes part in [[Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack the battle of Hoth]] before his ship is shot, proclaiming he's fine... moments until his ship blows up and suddenly pops back with a lightsaber.
166* ''WebVideo/SuperPowerBeatDown'': In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAg2m5UlBYw "Batman vs. Deadpool"]], to demonstrate his HealingFactor, ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} ''fires a bullet in his own brain'' and goes down. A few seconds later, he raises an arm while saying "I'm alright, I'm alright, gimme a second..."
167* ''WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries'': During the Duelist Kingdom arc, there's a flashback to the scene where Kaiba jumps out of a several-meter-high window to escape Pegasus's goons. While they remark that there's no way he could've survived such a high fall, he announces that he's fine... but they refuse to believe him.
168-->'''Goon 1:''' There's no way he could survive a fall like that!\
169'''Kaiba:''' ''[from far below]'' Actually, I seem to be okay.\
170'''Goon 2:''' Nope, he's definitely dead.\
171'''Kaiba:''' You guys are idiots!\
172'''Goon 1:''' At least we're not dead, like ''you!''
173[[/folder]]
174
175[[folder:Western Animation]]
176* ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfJimmyNeutronBoyGenius'': In the episode "Stranded", after getting stranded in Jimmy's hovercar in the middle of the ocean, Carl, Sheen, and Libby attempt to signal for help from a passing ocean liner. Mistaking a button for a flare gun, they accidentally launch a torpedo at the ship, blowing it up. Cue the mass "We're okay!!" from the passengers.
177* Played with twice in ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball'', where an injured person is talkative enough to convey that they are ''alive'', but still very much injured:
178** In "The Allergy", when Mr. Small attempts to cure Darwin's constant sneezing using holistic medicine involving plugging two crystals in Darwin's nose. Darwin sneezes and accidentally knocks Rocky out of a tree, causing Rocky to declare "I'm not okay!"
179** "The Copycats" ends with the Wattersons' doppelgangers running a burning truck full of gasoline off a bridge. Gumball shouts to them offscreen to see if they survived:
180--->'''Gumball:''' Uh, you guys good?\
181'''Chi Chi:''' ''No!''\
182'''Gumball:''' Eh, good enough.
183* In ''WesternAnimation/BobsBurgers'', the phrase is Tina Belcher's catchphrase: she says it almost every time she falls over or gets hurt.
184* A played-with example in ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom''. Every time one of Valerie's ghost hunting weapons accidentally goes off, her father hears it and calls her name, prompting her to call back "I'm okay!"
185* ''WesternAnimation/DaveTheBarbarian'' plays with this when two separate cottages are crushed by a rampaging monster. It can't be seen what happens to the occupants, but they both call out:
186-->'''First Peasant:''' I'm still alive!\
187'''Second Peasant:''' [[UndeadAuthor I'm not...]]
188* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'': At the end of "War is the H-Word", it cuts to the credits as Bender deliberately sets off a bomb in his chest. We hear an explosion, followed by Bender shouting "I'm okay!"
189* This was [[BornUnlucky Eugene's]] catchphrase in ''WesternAnimation/HeyArnold'', said from offscreen whenever he experienced some sort of horrible accident.
190* On ''WesternAnimation/JimmyTwoShoes'', after a character is dropped in a SharkPool: "I'm okay...kinda."
191* [[Franchise/LiloAndStitch Stitch]] has a minor catchphrase in ''WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitchTheSeries'' after he gets hurt, "I'm OK! [[RidiculouslyCuteCritter I'm fluffy!]]" Sometimes it crosses over with his famous [[ThirdPersonPerson illeism]], replacing "I'm" with his name.
192* In ''WesternAnimation/MegasXLR'', when the Glorft have Coop trapped, a buncha of drivers show to challenge the Glorft, only to get swung aside in a second, with one of the drivers stating they're all right.
193* In ''WesternAnimation/MenInBlackTheSeries'', one episode was set in a dream world where everything went the way that Jay liked. Part of this was [[TheStoic Agent Kay]] being ultra incompetent: he would regularly be run over by some alien device run amok, and shout (from a distance) "I'm OK!" subverted when Kay crawls into sight -- as ''nothing but a skeleton'' -- and shouts, "I'm OK!" [looks down at himself] [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction "Whoa, what happened here?"]]
194* The creators of ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' commented in an interview that Disney will let them do all sorts of over-the-top slapstick as long as the victim vocally confirms their survival:
195** Exaggerated in "The Fast and the Phineas", Phineas is in a NASCAR-like race and as a result of random destruction to the arena, most of the other cars go flying. They end up stacked artistically, some upside down. Then all the drivers popped out and simultaneously shout, "We're okay!"
196** In "[[OffToSeeTheWizard Wizard of Odd]]", Suzie (playing the Wicked Witch of the East) repeatedly states that she's alive, even with the house right on top of her; everybody else ignores her.
197** "Great Balls of Water":
198*** During the song "Extra-Ordinary", Candace mentions the interesting activities "underwater taxidermy, shopping for a suitcase". During the second of these, a shot is seen of Candace walking past with an alligator suitcase -- the alligator looks exactly like it would in real life, except it has a handle, and its tail is holding a sign saying "I'm Okay!"
199*** In the same episode, a man [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext falls to the ground from his upside-down house on the top of Loop-De-Loop Street]] and hits the ground with a loud crash, afterwards saying in a nonchalant tone: "I'm okay! Happens all the time!"
200** "Just in case anyone is wondering what happened to old Doofenshmirtz, I'm okay!" ''(crash)'' "Okay, obviously not now."
201* Played for laughs in ''WesternAnimation/RubyGloom'', whenever the adventurous Iris crashes into something offscreen ("I'm good!") or when Misery gets struck by lightning ("Ow.")
202* ''WesternAnimation/SofiaTheFirst'' has Prince Jin say this when he twice falls flat on his back due to his costume of heavy armour.
203* A variation in ''WesternAnimation/StormHawks''. A bunch of Blizzarians are playing around on snowmobiles, racing through ice caves. One of them decides to do a stunt by racing up the wall, leaping off, and grabbing a stalactite. As he and the other Blizzarians cheer, he lets go with his hands to do twin rocker signs, which causes him to slide off and plummet to the ground. There's a beat, then we see him lift his hand in another rocker sign, cheering. The other Blizzarians cheer along with him, while the Storm Hawks don't show much enthusiasm at all this.
204* ''WesternAnimation/TimeSquad'' subverts this in an episode involving the Wright brothers. In the end, when they unveil their latest invention; a plane powered by rockets, Orville (who spent the entire episode being the ButtMonkey of all their failures) explodes in midair and crashes to the ground we get this:
205-->''[emerging from the flaming wreck]''\
206'''Orville:''' I'm alright!\
207''[flaming wreck explodes '''again''']''\
208'''Orville:''' Okay... NOW I'M HURT ''[{{beat}}]'' YES, DEFINITELY HURT!
209* ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated'': Lugnut says this in one episode after Megatron interrupts his Punch of Kill Everything to prevent him from destroying the Constructicons (then the Constructobots).
210* ''WesternAnimation/WorkItOutWombats'': In "Secret Tunnels," Zeke trips inside the tunnels, then affirms that he's okay.
211[[/folder]]
212
213[[folder:Real Life]]
214* Creator/JackieChan's bonus reels often feature this, as he messes up one of his stunts and then jumps back up to indicate he's not (too badly) hurt. Humorously {{lampshade|Hanging}}d in the ''Film/RushHour'' outtake reel:
215-->'''Crew:''' Is he okay? Is Jackie okay?\
216'''Jackie Chan:''' ''[jumps up]'' Jackie always OK!\
217''[laughter among the crew]''
