'''Basic Trope''': An illusion tricks a character into walking off a dangerous edge.
* '''Straight''': Alice is hypnotized to think that there is a bridge over a chasm, and falls while trying to cross it.
* '''Exaggerated''': Bob is hypnotized to think that the Eiffel Tower observation deck is at ground level, and falls while hopping up and down outside the guardrail trying to prove that it is at ground level.
* '''Downplayed''': Alice is tricked into walking over a trap door into a hidden dungeon, but the fall doesn't kill her.
* '''Justified''':
** Death trap which uses optical illusion.
** The 'floor' is open to let the animatronics 'walk' and Alice didn't listen to the ride's employees during the In Show Exit. [[note]][[Ride/PiratesOfTheCaribbean Arr, seems she'll be staying down in Davey Jones locker, my matey]][[/note]]
* '''Inverted''':
** LeapOfFaith
** Alice is made to think solid ground is a drop, and when she leaps down, she winds up breaking her neck.
* '''Subverted''': Alice walks over the edger but [[YourMindMakesItReal Her Mind Makes It Real]] and she walks across.
* '''Double Subverted''':
** At least that is what Alice thinks, but she was also hypnotized into thinking she was on solid ground even as she falls to her doom.
** Once Alice is half way across, she is woken from her hypnosis and falls when she no longer thinks there's a floor.
* '''Parodied''': Alice actually walks across the illusory bridge, due to [[GravityIsAHarshMistress gravitational cognizance]]. Then her hypnotizer tries to go after her and [[PaintedTunnelRealTrain falls through the illusion]].
