* DisneyVillainDeath: Both Granny and her dog fall to their deaths when Tom accidentally makes a hole on their car's balloon while aiming at Jerry, causing them to try to jump with a parachute, only to realize that the backpack they took had none mid-fall, causing them to fight while falling straight to Borneo and their dooms. None of this, however, stops their ghosts from trying to make Tom suffer the same fate by popping his car's last balloon. However, Tom manages to subvert this trope by landing on Spike.

** Tom himself. He not only takes a large part in destroying the duo's home but he causes two racers to be missing or killed.(Granted he wasn't trying to hit Grammy but [[LackofEmpthy since he's still smiling while she and her dog try to survive he clearly doesn't care.]]) And he gets no karma for that. Unless if you possibly count the ending where [[OffscreenKarma thanks to history repeating itself in the new mansion that both Tom and Jerry will likely be kicked out for likely destroying their new home thanks to their antics.]]

Tom manages to cut the continent of Australia in half and causes half of the continent to sink into the ocean simply by ''tapping it with his foot''. However, in reality, this would in all probability trigger a volcanic eruption in the area where Tom melted the rock to bisect Australia; his effort to sink half, let alone ''any'' of it would completely backfire in real life.
