** Lampshaded in that Donald Duck and his nephews will occasionally try it, and break their heads on the metal (the first time they saw him do it, they feared for his sanity/health). Scrooge even managed to trick the Beagle Boys into trying this in ''Only A Poor Old Man''. And then when he had to prove his identity against a doppelganger, he used this ability to do so, noting that it took him ''years'' of practice to be able to do it.

* Played straight and then subverted in ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug''. The villain Moolak turns people into gold coins and stores them inside his flying safe, where he is also hiding. Moolak isn't affected by all the coins he's swimming in, but when Pegasus attempts to teleport inside the safe, he simply runs into a solid wall of coins.

peacefully. Furthermore, the mass of gold, gems and other assorted valuables will behave like a fluid in other scenarios, flowing out of holes like water and possibly even being subject to waves on its surface.

As the page quote [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=viDL2W0HcJw&t=0m10s demonstrates]], [[ArtisticLicensePhysics pooling together large quantities of small, solid material won't magically give it the properties of a liquid]], as anyone who's ever laid down on sand at the beach can tell you. In fact, diving into a pool of gold coins won't be much different from diving into a giant solid block of gold. But you can't let a little thing like physics get in the way of demonstrating a perfect example of just how wealthy a character can be. The effect can also be achieved (much more realistically) with dollars/bills, which are softer and, when pooled together, much more malleable (though you ''may'' run the risk of a few papercuts depending on how crisp the bill are).

** In another story Rockerduck had built his own money bin and started a competition on who could build the best one. Eventually Scrooge grew tired of the competition and pulled this with ''Rockerduck''[='=]s money in front of witnesses, forcing him to try it himself... And then put his cash back in the banks and destroy his own money bin after cracking his head and nearly ''drowning'' in the cash before Scrooge saved him. Points for actually coming close to pull it off, though.
