11	What happens when you combine Kung-Fu with Feng-Shui.
12
13	A.k.a. Demolition Fu; redecoration through battle. SheetOfGlass meets PunchedAcrossTheRoom, the RuleOfCool and MadeOfIron: In a hand-to-hand fight in a furnished room (e.g. a BarBrawl), [[TrashTheSet as many props as possible will be destroyed]]. This may or may not exclude the walls themselves. Luckily, this is covered under HeroInsurance.
14
15	Furniture in movies is actually incredibly rickety; no furniture maker would get away with stuff so easily broken. Except the kind that makes stuff out of balsa wood and sugar glass for the movies, that is. Of course, the intended effect is to make the fighters look so badass that they ''can'' break solid furniture.
16
17	[[ExaggeratedTrope Higher-powered]] versions of the trope (for example, those involving HumongousMecha or AttackOfThe50FootWhatever) involve the destruction of entire buildings, and from there we go to fighters re-arranging the ''landscape'': compare SceneryGorn.
18
19	When two characters use this to resolve their {{U\|nresolvedSexualTension}}ST, it's DestructoNookie. Allowing this in VideoGames results in DieChairDie. When used as part of a grand finale, it's TrashTheSet.

21	----
22	!!Examples:
23	[[foldercontrol]]
24
25	[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
26	* Tends to happen a lot in ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'', even [[{{Flanderization}} moreso]] in FanFic. The Tendō home tends to bear the brunt of many fights. The very first time Akane expressed her feelings towards Ranma, it was with the dining room table. It just went on from there.
27	* A mild example in ''Manga/FruitsBasket''. Shigure's front door seems to get destroyed if somebody even thinks about fighting near it. This is heavily lampshaded by Shigure himself.
28	* ''Manga/DragonBall''
29	** In later arcs of every incarnation, the (weaker) fighters will often smash eighty-meter-high ''mountains'' to rubble. Early on in ''Anime/DragonBallZ'', Piccolo actually ''[[DetonationMoon destroys the moon.]]'' Because it was a ''softer'' target than his [[{{Lunacy}} moon-powered]] opponent (Gohan-[[http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Great_Ape oozaru]]).
30	** Master Roshi did the same thing earlier, destroying the moon during the first World Martial Arts tournament in order to stop the rampage of a young, transformed Goku by reverting him to his normal form.
31	** In the manga, Goku is actually questioned about his missing tail when he arrives for the second TournamentArc and explains that [[PhysicalGod Kami]] removed it permanently before restoring the moon, closing both plot holes at once.
32	[[/folder]]
33
34	[[folder:Comic Books]]
35	* One ''ComicBook/LuckyLuke'' album has a running gag of the bar owner removing the large mirror behind the bar, only for it to be broken accidentally after the fight.
36	* Pretty much every superhero comic includes a measure of this.
37	** ''ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk'': Anything happening in the same county with the Hulk. [[Series/TheIncredibleHulk1977 The understatedly-powerful Ferrigno version]] busted a lot of barrooms. The comics, movie and video game versions bust a lot of buildings and military equipment.
38	** One of the recurring jokes of the ''ComicBook/XMen'' during Creator/ChrisClaremont's run was the amount of property damage inflicted upon the environment. Especially the habit to [[ThereWasADoor bust the walls instead of using doors]].
39	* This happens in one issue of ComicBook/GoldDigger, where the annual Explorers' Society banquet results in the hall being demolished every year. During the free-for-all, Brianna comments that the titanium alloy reinforced tables were a great improvement in cover compared to the wooden ones they had the last time she was there.
40	* ''ComicBook/WonderWoman1987'': When Wonder Woman has to fight a brainwashed Superman during "The Witch and the Warrior" they end up punching and throwing each other through several New York City skyscrapers and making an absolute mess of Times Square.
41	* Happens at times in the ''Comicbook/{{Asterix}}'' comics, given that's a consequence of when someone enhanced by a potion that gives SuperStrength fights in a closed space. ''Recap/AsterixAndTheGreatDivide'' has a case when two enemies, one with a sword, and another with a club, wreck the pirate ship that [[RecurringExtra always seem to get in the way of the Gauls]].
42	[[/folder]]
43
44	[[folder:Fan Works]]
45	* In ''FanFic/OriginStory'', ComicBook/TheAvengers and Shield attack the house in which Alex Harris and Louise Fulford (and [[ComicBook/FantasticFour Ben Grimm]]) are hiding out. At the end of the fight, there are holes in the ceiling, one part of the house has collapsed, another part of the house has been vaporized, and a part of the lawn is on fire.
46	[[/folder]]
47
48	[[folder:Films — Animated]]
49	* ''Anime/ResidentEvilDamnation'': During their fight in the office, Ada punts a table at [[PresidentEvil Svetlana]], and later throws a pitcher of water at her.
50	* Quite a lot of the Valley gets destroyed during the final battle of ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda1'', including the archway above Mr. Ping's noodle shop, [[ContinuityNod which is shown repaired in the sequel]].
51	* The climactic battle of ''Westernanimation/{{Mulan}}'' is at first Shan Yu tearing the imperial palace apart - he [[BarrierBustingBlow punches and charges through a door]], cuts thick columns with his door, one of whom falls through a wall, and then jumps through the ceiling to find Mulan already at the rooftop - and then Mushu fires a huge rocket onto Shan Yu that sends him onto a tower full of fireworks.
52	[[/folder]]
53
54	[[folder:Films — Live Action]]
55	* The [[Awesome/CrouchingTigerHiddenDragon fights at the pub and dojo]] in ''Film/CrouchingTigerHiddenDragon''.
56	* Many, many Creator/JackieChan movies (e.g. the casino room fight in ''Film/RushHour 3'').
57	** Arguably parodied in ''Film/TheTuxedo'' when he accidentally activates "demolition mode" on the [[ClothesMakeTheSuperman eponymous suit]], which proceeds to destroy everything in sight.
58	** Interestingly inverted in some movies as well. ''Film/RushHour'' and ''[[Film/ShanghaiNoon Shanghai Knights]]'' have fights take place in rooms filled with priceless artwork, and the combatants go out of their way not to break anything.
59	* ''Film/KillBill''
60	** The fights between the Bride and Vernita Green, and between the Bride and Elle Driver.
61	** The big fight at the House of Blue Leaves also qualifies, mainly in the furniture destroyed by Go-Go Yubari's flail.
62	** It was averted somewhat in the second film, however, when Beatrix needed to practice in order to eventually punch a hole through a wood board from close range.
63	* How about those 1940s action serials? Especially ones directed by Spencer Gordon Bennet and Fred C. Brannon. Anything that is not nailed down will get thrown or smashed during a fist fight.
64	* ''Film/JamesBond'': Bond does it so often in fact that 00- license might as well be the license to cause severe property damage.
65	** In the pre-credits scene in ''Film/{{Thunderball}}'', Bond and Bouvar rampage through a well-appointed sitting room. In one minute and fifteen seconds of screen time, the inanimate casualties include three tables, two chairs, a hutch, a grandfather clock, a large tapestry, a table lamp, numerous ceramics, and [[NeckSnap a fireplace poker]].
66	** The battle in the Venetian glass museum in ''Film/{{Moonraker}}'', ''to this day'', still holds the record for the largest amount of SoftGlass used in a single scene of a movie. By the end of the fight, almost everything in the room has been shattered.
67	** ''Film/GoldenEye'': "You have a licence to kill, not to break the traffic laws!" was how Q put it... Then again, he says something along the lines of blowing up any vehicles he gets into being a "standard procedure" for an [=MI6=] agent... it is uncertain if this is meant to be ironic.
68	** ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'' includes a scene where Bond gets ''literal'' HeroInsurance for his car, leading to this delightful exchange:
69	-->'''Q:''' Now, will you need collision coverage?
70	-->'''Bond:''' Yes.
71	-->'''Q:''' ''[stares at Bond]'' Fire?
72	-->'''Bond:''' Probably.
73	-->'''Q:''' Property destruction?
74	-->'''Bond:''' Definitely.
75	-->'''Q:''' Personal Injury?
76	-->'''Bond:''' I hope not, but accidents do happen.
77	** ''Film/DieAnotherDay'': It's cheerfully lampshaded Bond and Gustav Graves trash a fencing club during a duel which gets out of hand; after the fight, as various ruined furnishings are carried out, a bellhop remarks, "The place needed redecorating anyway."
78	** ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006'': The toilet fight, in which Bond and his quarry manage to go through several cubicle walls and smash at least one sink.
79	* ''Film/TrueLies'': There's a fairly amusing bathroom fight scene. After Harry and his foe had taken the fight elsewhere, an old man emerges from a toilet stall with an expression of shock and bewilderment.
80	* ''Film/Terminator3RiseOfTheMachines'' for obvious reasons. Between the two time-traveling robots of death, property damage essentially ranges in the ''quadrillions'' of dollars, total nuclear annihilation notwithstanding.
81	* The fights between Inspector Clouseau and his manservant Cato in the various films of ''Franchise/ThePinkPanther'' series, in [[MundaneMadeAwesome magnificent]] [[BigNo slo-mo]], with zero martial arts skill.
82	* The bathroom fight between Morpheus and Agent Smith in ''Film/TheMatrix''. In [[Franchise/TheMatrix the series]] as a whole, resistance fighters will often take shortcuts through sheetrock walls to attack their opponents. Agents will do this to ''concrete subway terminals.'' The final brawl of the trilogy takes this to ''Manga/DragonBall'' levels - the fighters knock down '''skyscrapers''' by throwing each other into them, and one body-slams the other so hard he punches a six-foot-deep, sixty-foot-wide crater in a city '''street'''.
83	* The fight between Ramirez and Kurgan in ''Film/{{Highlander}}''.
84	* Creator/JohnWoo's gunfights frequently result in the scenery getting torn apart, and in the game ''Stranglehold'', even your ''punches'' have this effect, smashing columns if you [[PunchedAcrossTheRoom smack someone into them this way]].
85	* After Lara's mansion gets shot up in the first ''Film/LaraCroftTombRaider'' movie, her two assistants are seen sweeping up the next day, and she remarks "I just woke up and hated everything" to a deliveryman.
86	* The fight between the Beast and the Landlords in ''Film/KungFuHustle'', and then the Beast versus the Chosen One.
87	* ''Film/ItsAMadMadMadMadWorld'' uses this to demolish a gas station.
88	* Lampshaded in ''Film/{{Sunset\|1988}}'' since the scene is actually being shot in a film about Wyatt Earp, in the presence of Wyatt Earp himself who comments on how unrealistic it is.
89	* Both used and defied in ''Film/IpMan''. At the start of Ip Man's fight with Jin, the former is merely evading Jin's blows, which happen to fall on the stuff in his house. After a while, his son comes in and conveys a message from his wife to get serious or all the pottery etc. will get smashed... so he does. No more vases are lost. Ip ends up getting into another furniture-wrecking fight in [[Film/IpMan4 the fourth film.]]
90	* An old TV is smashed against someone's head at one point during ''Film/{{Legion}}''. Doubles as an in-movie HilariousInHindsight given some of the lines earlier in the film.
91	* ''Film/IronMan2'': [[Comicbook/WarMachine Rhodey]] tries to shut down Tony's drunken partying, and Tony doesn't mind showing his disagreement by first asking his DJ for some asskicking music, then proceeding to toss Rhodey through a window. Rhodey doesn't give up so easily, so the fight proceeds on to the weight room, the boxing ring, and through ceilings. Of course, both are wearing PoweredArmor, which makes it double the awesome.
92	* ''Film/Red2010'': There is a scene where Frank pays a visit to CIA headquarters, and decides to introduce himself to Cooper. Being the {{Combat Pragmatist}}s that they both are, nearly every piece of furniture in the office (from an innocent telephone to a wall-mounted flat screen television) ends up destroyed.
93	* ''Film/MrAndMrsSmith2005'': The titular couple do everything ''except'' destroy their house before the scene segues into DestructoNookie. When the cops show up due to a noise complaint, they [[BluffingTheAuthorities explain the damage as being part of a remodel]].
94	* Gale and HI's brawl in the trailer home in ''Film/RaisingArizona''. Just about every blow exchanged in the brawl puts a dent or hole in one of the trailer's paper-soft walls. At one point, HI is hurled straight through a wall. In another, Gale punches through a wall and pulls out a stick that he uses to whack HI's head.
95	* ''Film/AClockworkOrange'': The fight between Alex's droogs and Billy Boy's gang is a long sequence of prop chairs, bottles and sheet glass breaking over people's heads. In a bit of meta-humor, they're fighting in a theater.
96	* ''Film/TheCannonballRun'': During the big fight, Captain Chaos pretty much totally demolishes an old shack: mostly by tossing bikers through the walls.
97	* Yet another bathroom fight in ''Film/DeathGrip'', where the fight between Torch and Kenny trashes several stalls, breaks off a sink, and results in a large hole in the wall when Torch kicks Kenny into the wall, and then keeps kicking until Kenny falls through. The latter was apparently the result of a happy accident on-set where Jacobus broke through the wall and Bosch decided to just keep kicking since the damage was already done.
98	* PlayedForLaughs in ''Film/RevengeOfThePinkPanther''. The minion of Mafia boss Philippe Douvier introduces four of their best assassins, whose job is not to kill Inspector Clouseau but martial artist Mr. Chong, the man they've hired to kill Clouseau. Chong proves his suitability by taking out all four men with his bare hands, smashing up Douvier's expensive apartment in the process. He then walks up to Douvier's desk and smashes that up too. Douvier gets out of his chair, wordlessly hands a broom and dustpan to his minion, then leaves.
99	* ''Film/TigerCage2'' has a scene between Waise Chow and David. In the CurbStompBattle between David and Waise, inside Chiu's office, Waise kicks David through a glass door, kicks David to break a small wooden table, kicks him through a non-glass door, and then kicks David into a glass table... while the thugs enjoy the fight drinking Scotch without ice. In a strange effect, Waise uses a high kick to break through the remains of said glass door to go through it.
100	[[/folder]]
101
102	[[folder:Literature]]
103	* {{Justified\|Trope}} in ''Young Legionary'': Keill and Oni are young members of an entire race of highly trained soldiers. The two of them have a game called Demolition where they would destroy every piece of furniture in a room as quickly and stylishly as possible using nothing but their martial arts. [[spoiler:Later in the story, they gleefully trash the [[FashionVictimVillain tacky, pretentious]] [[StarshipLuxurious lounge area of the antagonists' spaceship]].]]
104	* {{Defied\|Trope}} in ''[[Literature/HeraldsOfValdemar Exile's Honor]]'': the furniture in The Broken Arms is so sturdy that in a fight against a charging bull, the bull would come out second. This is to avoid having to replace furniture after brawls.
105	* {{Subverted\|Trope}} in one of ''Literature/TheDresdenFiles'' books. Harry hits somebody with a barstool in [=MacAnally's=], and remarks that "When you hit someone with a chair, it doesn't break. Whoever you hit with it is the one that breaks."
106	** Played straight and justified in ''Literature/TurnCoat'', when Thomas takes a chair and uses it to beat down Madeline Raith. Thomas is strong enough that the chair breaks. Which Harry notes is particularly impressive, considering the chair in question is steel. Madeline is on a similar level of strength, and survives.
107	[[/folder]]
108
109	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
110	* Happens several times in ''Series/TerminatorTheSarahConnorChronicles''. Somewhat justified in that the combatants are super-strong, super-tough robotic assassins from the future. Punching each other will do little damage, so they tend to try and pick each other up and throw them through walls, out windows, and even through floors and ceilings.
111	* ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'':
112	** Among many, many, other examples, her [[DestructoNookie first fling with Spike]] is somehow engendered from this.
113	** Made into some sort of LampshadeHanging / CharacterDevelopment combination, as in later seasons Xander became a talented carpenter, due to all the experience he had repairing and replastering Buffy's house.
114	** Becomes a minor plot point in the season 6 episode "[[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS6E4Flooded Flooded]]", where Buffy deals with mounting bills following her mother's (and her own) death. When a demon attacks her in her house, she moves the fight to the basement where there are fewer breakables; after the fight, she and the gang discuss how much her mother must have spent constantly redecorating and Xander notes that the furniture is all cheap and low-quality.
115	-->'''Buffy''': [[PunctuatedPounding No! More! Full! Copper! Repipe!]]
116	** Mentioned in "[[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS7E18DirtyGirls Dirty Girls]]":
117	-->'''Faith:''' Whoa. Memory Lane. Same old house.\
118	'''Buffy:''' Yeah, well, every piece of furniture's been destroyed and replaced since you left, so, actually, new house.
119	* This occasionally happens in ''Franchise/StarTrek'' during fights on the ship, making some people wonder why they still use breakable furniture in the future. [[FridgeBrilliance Because]] if they didn't, somebody could get hurt.
120	* ''Series/{{Charmed\|1998}}'' tends to have furniture destroyed and windows bashed open when a demon teleports into the house. Slightly averted in that the characters can fix it using magic (maybe they use magic to make the local furniture more comfy to land on if thrown across the room). Their guardian angel is a handyman. Lampshaded by the characters several times as the series went on, particularly the tendency for people (both good and evil) to get hurled into the giant grandfather clock.
121	* In what has been dubbed "the best girlfight ever" by ''Series/{{Alias}}'' fans, Sydney and Fake Francine had a ''spectacular'' fight in their shared apartment, using or breaking just about everything that wasn't nailed down.
122	* Inverted in ''Series/RedDwarf'', in the episode "[[Recap/RedDwarfSeasonIIIBackwards Backwards]]": Lister and company step out into an utterly-destroyed bar, at which point a fight begins - and since time is running backwards in this universe, the fight ''fixes'' everything. (There is a bit of FridgeLogic, though - the fight starts because Lister "undrank" someone's pint... which, if time ran forwards, would only happen ''after'' the fight was over.)
123	* ''Series/FastForward''. A spoof of ''Series/KungFu1972'' has a cowboy trying to break a chair during the requisite BarBrawl, only he can't break it as he's moving the chair in SlowMotion; he then reverts to normal speed to build up enough force to break the chair.
124	* Parodied (like everything else) in the pilot for ''Series/AngieTribeca''. Angie's morning workout culminates with her trashing her apartment, including tearing down a bookshelf and punching the refrigerator hard enough to leave dents in the door. When she finally leaves for work, she passes by a line of repairmen ready to fix everything she just destroyed.
125	* ''Series/{{CSINY}}'': In "Corporate Warriors," two martial arts-trained executives go at it in a pool bar. One stumbles out into the street and dies. Upon being called to the scene, Stella and Danny trace his steps back to the bar and find it utterly trashed. The owner, who had retreated to safety in the bathroom during the brawl, comes out and bemoans the fact that she had just refurbished the place and now it has to be done all over again.
126	[[/folder]]
127
128	[[folder:Music]]
129	* Music/TheMountainGoats song "Oceanographer's Choice" has the Alpha couple doing this to their run-down Tallahassee home.
130	* HairMetal and early VisualKei bands in TheEighties and [[TheNineties the early Nineties]] were notorious for sometimes doing this ''for real.'' Music/MotleyCrue and Music/GunsNRoses were probably the most notable for HairMetal with the infamous TV thrown out the window (though that was more of a publicity stunt) and the fan riot when Axl Rose walked off the stage, while Music/XJapan was most notable for the Yoshiki vs Dynamite Tommy fight that somehow destroyed an entire bar and the hotel room NoodleIncident that led to a fire, explosion, and the equivalent of US $60,000 (at the time) worth of damage.
131	[[/folder]]
132
133	[[folder:Podcasts]]
134	* ''Podcast/TheMagnusArchives'': The narrator of the episode "Arachnophobia" kicks and smashes his television to kill the spider sitting on the screen.
135	[[/folder]]
136
137	[[folder:Professional Wrestling]]
138	* Destroying furniture is a time-honored tradition in Professional Wrestling. Nothing says badass like bodyslamming your opponent through the announcer's table.
139	[[/folder]]
140
141	[[folder:TabletopGames]]
142	* The ''TabletopGame/FengShui'' roleplaying game does this in spades. One of the game's cornerstones is that if you're not invoking this trope, in every fight scene, you're missing half the fun. In the published adventures for the game, for any location where a fight might break out, there will be section of the text devoted to describing the furniture and other features of the room, specifically for the purposes of how they could be used as improvised weapons or otherwise feature in combat. A description of a restaurant, for example, will not just mention chairs and cutlery, but also the possibility of using the rotating server in the center of a table for spin kicks, or that someone is definitely going to be dunked in the lobster tank head first and emerge with a lobster pinching their nose, or...
143	[[/folder]]
144
145	[[folder:Video Games]]
146	* The arcade version of ''VideoGame/NinjaGaiden'' has your hero able to throw enemies into telephone booths, crates, signs, vending machines, and barrels, all to get powerups inside (and causing no additional damage to your enemies, oddly enough).
147	* In ''VideoGame/BloodRayne 2'' you can throw opponents onto spikes and out windows...or simply toss them through the occasional breakable wall or other scenery. One office area is a room full of cubicles, all of which can be smashed by flying Mooks.
148	* ''VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}}''. Early on in the game, Bayonetta tosses a chapel at a particularly gigantic angel. It just keeps progressing from there, with the penultimate fight between Bayonetta and [[spoiler:Father Balder]] resulting in the latter tossing the ''skyscrapers'' of their own city at Bayonetta.
149	* A major gameplay element of ''VideoGame/PowerStone''. Some characters had moves meant specifically for environmental destruction.
150	* Being a pastiche of Hong Kong action movies, ''VideoGame/SleepingDogs2012'' allows Wei to smash mooks into background objects such as telephone booths, parked cars, fish tanks and various kinds of furniture.
151	* ''VideoGame/OneFingerDeathPunch'' has new buildings and objects being lowered into the background constantly. You can't interact with it at all, it's there solely to get destroyed by flying enemies. Meanwhile, Smash Rounds are based entirely around using your opponents to wreck the required number of scenery objects.
152	* Mostly averted in the ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' series (indoor battles do not wreck wherever they take place in), but given one deliberate nod during the beginning of ''VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite'' when a battle takes place in the main character's ''bedroom''. The room ends up completely trashed after the battle, though it is quickly returned to normal after the next one.
153	* ''VideoGame/UnboundSaga'' allows you to destroy all indoor environments in massive fight scenes, with your character practically name-dropping the trope aloud:
154	--> '''Rick''': [''bursting into a small room with mooks and destroyable objects''] Nice Feng Shui... let's rearrange their furniture!
155	* It is essentially a tradition of the ''VideoGame/DarkSouls'' series to have bosses trash stuff during battles. The fights against Ornstein and Smough in ''VideoGame/DarkSoulsI'' and the Old Dragonslayer in ''VideoGame/DarkSoulsII'' are quite hard on the pillars in the locations they're fought in, for example. Carried over and made even more extreme in ''VideoGame/EldenRing'', where every boss and miniboss seems to have a terminal hatred of stone pillars, walls, and other structures and the power to back it up.
156	* There are two stages in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' where this can be done, namely [[VideoGame/StreetFighterII Suzaku Castle]], where fighters can be launched through the signposts on the stage, destroying them, and [[VideoGame/Tekken7 Mishima Dojo]], where fighters can be launched through the ''walls and ceilings of the dojo'', destroying them (and is actually the only way to allow for [=KOs=] to occur on the stage). In both cases, the destroyed objects will eventually regenerate.

159	[[folder:Webcomics]]
160	%%* This happens during [[http://www.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=980124&mode=weekly Aylee and Bun-Bun's first fight]] in ''Webcomic/SluggyFreelance''.
161	* In a hilarious inversion, Charlotte Tanning from ''Webcomic/MannsSearchForMeenie'' is a [[http://www.akimbocomics.com/?p=656 Feng Shui assassin]]. Instead of redecorating through battle, she [[http://www.akimbocomics.com/?p=259 battles by redecorating]]--manipulating the energy flow of a room (and her assailants) by moving furniture. She can achieve lethal results if there's a "box" (i.e., a [[NewMediaAreEvil television]]) in the vicinity.

165	* WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd seems to keep stacks of [[CrateExpectations boxes]] around for the sake of knocking people into them. {{Lampshade\|Hanging}}d by WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic during the Final Battle.
166	* The SHOCK animation series included gratuitous amount of...remodeling... during the course of the series especially in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGRFLNntlb0&feature=related the third one]].
