History Main / UnstoppableRage

** BewareTheNiceOnes: In the finale, in order to resolve the conflict between humanity and the Cylons, the Final Five have to share memories to give the Cylons what they want. Problem is, one of them killed another's wife. [[Tory tries to emphasize that they need to just live and let live before they start the process, but when Tyrol learns that she killed Callie, he pulls out and strangles her to death then and there, a look of pure anger, rage, and hate on his face.]]

* {{CSI}}'': Catherine Willows was a good example of this in "Lady Heather's Box". Eddie's girlfriend started griping about wanting to save Eddie more than Lindsey, and it was all the team could do to hold Cath back.

* Visser Three in ''Literature/{{Animorphs}}'' had one of these several times a book practically. <You have failed me!!!> *body parts begin flying off*

* ''Series/{{CSI}}'': Catherine Willows was a good example of this in "Lady Heather's Box". Eddie's girlfriend started griping about wanting to save Eddie more than Lindsey, and it was all the team could do to hold Cath back.

* The [[MiniBoss Fleshpound]] in ''KillingFloor'' looks like a GiantMook with rotating maces for arms at first. If you inflict enough damage to trigger it, the medical pump on his chest will [[TurnsRed turn red]]. What does that mean ? That means he runs twice as fast and will pummel anything between him and the player who pusehd him. [[CurbStompBattle With gory results.]]

* Mirta from Winx Club is referred to as creating "illusions powered by emotions". When the Trix try to kill Stella, Musa, Flora, and Tecna, Mirta rages out and conjures up a gigantic nightmare thing in front of them; not only does it scare the bejeezus out of Stormy and Darcy (which causes their spells to fail and free the Winx), but even Mirta gets a little freaked out by what she's done. Good thing she's a wallflower most of the time . . .

* In the PeterPanAndThePirates episode "First Encounter" when it appears that Captain Hook has fed Nibs and Toodles to the crocodile Peter gets very upset, Hook mocks him for it he then flies into a rage and attacks him more intensely than he had ever been before ending when he knocks Hook's sword out of his hands then uses it to cut off his hand.

** On the opposite side of the morality scale, we have Raul Menendez in ''[[VideoGame/CallOfDuty Call of Duty: Black Ops II]]'', who [[spoiler:upon being torn away from his sister, Josefina]], goes into a blind rage complete with anime rush streaks when sprinting, superhuman bullet-sponge-osity, and the ability to "reload" his shotgun simply by throwing it away and picking another one up from the dead soldiers he just killed, all in the space of two seconds. And yes, it is as much fun to play as I made it sound just now.

* AudieMurphy, then a corporal in WorldWarII, had his best friend shot and killed by a member of a German machine gun crew [[ISurrenderSuckers pretending to surrender to him]]. Murphy proceeded to ''flip out'', [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge single-handedly killing the entire crew before turning their weapons on their every ally within the area]], which included two other machine gun nests and several snipers. What makes this more badass was the fact that Murphy was around five-foot-five, weighed about 110 pounds, and was suffering from malaria at the time.
** What's more amazing is that ''he did something like this again,'' although the second time around was more of the TranquilFury variety. In a French battle about six months later, by this time Second Lieutenant, after having sent the remaining 19 of his original unit of 128 men to retreat and take cover, he jumped onto a disabled tank and proceeded to use the .50 cal machine gun to hold off the approaching Germans ''for an hour'' during which time he was shot in the leg [[ImmuneToBullets but kept going.]] The day before, he had also [[OnlyAFleshWound taken some shrapnel]] from a mortar that had killed two nearby men in his unit. And that reportedly the tank was ''[[IncendiaryExponent on fire]]'' at the time he leaped onto it.

* In ''Manga/{{Eyeshield 21}}''. After Taiyou's defeat against the Hakushuu Dinosaurs, a stupid fan (recurring JerkAss background character Satoshi of Deimon's soccer team) mocked one of Taiyou's offensive linemen, Banba, who was beaten brutally by [[BloodKnight Gaou Rikiya]] despite his best effort. [[BerserkButton This pissed off Gaou]], who admired Banba's determination, and he demand the idiot to show himself. When the coward didn't show up, [[KillEmAll he decided to just completely freak out on the spectators until the guy fessed up]]. Luckily, Riku saves the day by taking the blame (although Gaou can see that Riku didn't say that, he let it off, impressed by Riku's courage).
** Is also subverted numerous times such as when [[spoiler: Tetsuma charges at Gaou after he severely injures Kid and is still soundly defeated]]

** Another example happened during the "Back In Black" story arc following ''Comicbook/CivilWar''. Aunt May lay dying after taking a sniper's bullet meant for Spider-Man. Donning his black costume, Spider-Man tracked down the man responsible, The Kingpin (who was serving prison time at that point), broke into the prison, confronted The Kingpin and then proceeded to give him a very savage beatdown. No jokes, No quips. He ends it by threatening to fill Kingpin's throat with enough webbing to kill him if he ever comes for Spider-Man again.

** People with autism spectrum disorders, especially children, are infamous for the "meltdowns" they can suddenly fly into. These can include hitting and kicking. In this case the cause is usually not "rage" per se but rather an overwhelming sense of frustration. They are trying to communicate ''something'' but they can't always make themselves understood. But they don't realize this, so from their perspective it seems like everyone is ignoring their problem. To put yourself in their shoes, imagine if a bird kept flying down and pecking you in the head over and over. Everyone else sees it happening but no one stops it, and when you try to complain no one seems to care. Meanwhile that Goddamn bird is still pecking away at you. It wouldn't take long before you started yelling and smashing stuff too.

** Both gamelines' vampires and werewolves, can instead enter Unstoppable ''Terror'' -- known as "Rötschreck" for vampires (either line), or "fox frenzy" for oWOD werewolves -- with the victim fleeing in blind panic from the trigger, tossing aside or shredding anything that stands in the way of doing so. In ''TabletopGame/NewWorldOfDarkness'' and ''TabletopGame/WerewolfTheApocalypse'' it's treated as another facet of the Unstoppable Rage, while ''TabletopGame/VampireTheMasquerade'' treats it as an unrelated phenomenon also originating with the vampire's Beast. In ''Werewolf: the Apocalypse'', shapeshifters experiencing this will normally take their full animal form for speed -- Forsaken's werewolves become the 9-foot tall lupine death machine for either type. ''TabletopGame/WerewolfTheApocalypse'' has human witnesses freak out ''any'' time they see a werewolf or other shapeshifter in their hybrid form.

* Subversion: In ''Film/MysteryMen'', BenStiller's character Mr. Furious was a superhero seemingly built around UnstoppableRage - except that when he raged, he wasn't much less stoppable than a "normal" adrenaline-fueled angry person. He didn't become substantially stronger, tougher or faster, which wasn't very useful. During the final battle, however, [[spoiler: his rage apparently gave him enough momentum to overcome the BigBad. In fact, it is implied that his "rage" had really been an act until that point.]]

* ''Franchise/{{Gundam}}:

* In ''Anime/MobileFighterGGundam'', this is initially played straight with Domon Kasshu's Shining Gundam and its Super Mode. He even yells "Take this! My love, my anger, and all of my sorrow!". This is later subverted as he finds out this is the "imperfect" mode. His more powerful Hyper Mode can only be used when he is in a [[TranquilFury completely zen state of peace, calm, and focus]].

* See ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED''. See Kira get angry. See Kira go crazy, and completely disable all of his enemies in seconds.
** That's not Kira angry. Go watch the episode where [[spoiler: He and Athrun succumb to their rage and try to kill one another.]] Both of them convey their rage very well with the sheer brutality of their attacks. No more hesitation, no more clever tricks. Their minds are set on the same part of the dial: "Two men enter, one man leaves."

* ''Manga/DragonBall Z'': Gohan. Though suffice to say, nearly every Saiyan character qualifies at one point or another. But Gohan is the outlier, because his potential since the beginning was defined as UnstoppableRage.

* When [[BigBad Flint]] [[spoiler:kills Ruby]] in ''WebAnimation/BunnyKill 4'', Snowball proceeds to flip out in a manner that can only be described as [[Manga/DragonBall Super Saiyan]] meets [[VideoGame/CaveStory frenzied Mimiga]].

** Harry when he finds out that Saruman has been [[spoiler: torturing Sirius for the best part of seven years]]. He throws Wormtongue from the top of Isengard, catches, him, gives him to Eomer, drags Saruman down into the dungeons by his beard(after letting Emrys break his nose and forcing it back into joint), vaporizing the doors of Isengard, and when he finds [[spoiler: Sirius]] he loses his temper completely and repeatedly uses the Cruciatus curse.

** When Stan told Francine that he framed her for murder and caused her to run away to Africa, she was far from angry.
