* An old commercial for Sprite has some teens throwing a party in their house against the request of their parents. When both parties discover that the parents forgot their tickets and will be coming back for them, one part of the efforts to hide the party is to throw the pizza they got up at the ceiling. It falls off following the second departure of the parents and the "I Like the Sprite In You" closing jingle.

* In a rather grim example, during the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SL-1 SL-1 disaster]] in 1961, one of the three nuclear reactor operators was standing on top of the core handling a loose control rod when, due to poor design and operator error, the reactor went [[GoingCritical prompt critical]], producing [[ReadingsAreOffTheScale 6000% of rated power]] in about ''7.5 milliseconds''. The spike in generated power almost instantaneously flashed all of the reactor's cooling water into steam, and the resulting steam explosion fired pieces of the reactor and shielding in all directions at high velocity. The unfortunate operator's body was found [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice pinned to the ceiling]] by a radiation shield plug.
