4* ''WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd'':
5** The Nerd himself gets one after hearing Zelda's BondOneLiner in The Wand of Gamelon.
6** In another Creator/JamesRolfe[=-=]related video series called ''Shit Pickle'', the monkey father from ''Munky Cheez 2'' (yet another video series) goes mad after his kids keep saying "monkey cheese" over and over while watching the original, and those two words are all that the monkey dad can say from then on. Watch it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RWdyjSutKQ here]].
7** During the "Wish List Part 2" video, he plays ''Spider-Man and Venom: Maximum Carnage'' and declares it to be SoOkayItsAverage. Not amazing, but not bad either. Happy to finally find a Spider-Man game that isn't terrible, he looks on the box to check who made it... and finds ''the [[Creator/LJNToys LJN]] logo''. The revelation that LJN managed to make even one game that isn't absolute dogshit drives him quite insane, and he is left {{Skyward Scream}}ing "IT'S NOOOOOT SHIIIIIIIT!!" as the video ends.
8** When reviewing ''VideoGame/{{Seaman}}'', the Nerd puts in another game called ''Explosive Fighter Patton'' for the Famicom that gives him a message that has "fuck" in it. The Nerd promptly loses his mind knowing that there's a game, released ''earlier'' than ''VideoGame/HongKong97'' (which had the famous "herd of fuckin' ugly reds" PrecisionFStrike), '''''on a Nintendo console''''', that uses the word "fuck".
9* In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMjeSdsHPrY this sketch]] from ''[[Podcast/QuestionableMaterialWithJackAndBrian The B.S. of A. with Brian Sack]]'', three teenage girls watching the MTV Video Music Awards have this reaction upon seeing Music/{{NSYNC}} take the stage to perform a reunion show. When one of them looks up *NSYNC to find out who they are, she sees that the middle-aged men they were making fun of used to be cute young guys, which means that their favorite BoyBand Music/OneDirection is doomed to also grow old, which causes them to start quoting ''Film/TheSeventhSeal'' as they realize that everything eventually dies and turns to dust. Then Dad comes in, tells them that he had the same reaction when Music/NewKidsOnTheBlock grew older, and [[INeedAFreakingDrink offers them wine to cope]] now that they've become adults.
10* Website/ChannelAwesome:
11** ''WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic'':
12*** The ''Film/BatmanAndRobin'' episode of has the Critic going AxCrazy after he watches a scene where Batman pulls out a "bat-credit card", and another person had to come in and restrain him for several hours. He manages to compose himself twice, but is [[BerserkButton immediately set off again when he mentions the card]].
13*** The ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerryTheMovie'' review has him reiterating to the viewers the basics of a particular scene: "A cat and mouse are driving a ship trying to save the daughter of Indiana Jones while being chased by a purple people eater, a dog on a skateboard, a performing ship captain, his hand puppet Squawk, two Mexican wrestlers, and a doctor riding an ice cream cart. Ladies and gentlemen, '''WELCOME TO THE MIND FUCK.'''" Cue footage of the chase scene interspersed with clips of the Nostalgia Critic going bananas while Flagpole Sitta plays in the background and a big red "MIND FUCK!" flashes on the screen.
14*** In the ''Franchise/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles'' movie reviews, he tried to stay positive on the [[Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1990 first]] and [[Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtlesIITheSecretOfTheOoze second]] movies, but still gives out negative responses. He tried to hope that [[Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtlesIII the third movie]], which even WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd declares to be awful (he considered the first and second decent), will turn out good... then "5 minutes later"... we see him cuddling around in the bathroom, bawling incoherently, followed with much more FreakOut and inventing the word ''horrifuckus'', after the revelation that the movie was really really... ''bad''.
15*** In a scene similar to the ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry'' incident, one of the last moments in the ''Film/JingleAllTheWay'' review has NC explaining that the movie simply doesn't care anymore after Arnold gets a jetpack and starts doing silly CGI stunts. He then says, "You know what they say... if you can't beat 'em... join them." Then comes the insanity, the flashing '''"WE DON'T CARE!"''', and "Playmate, Come Out and Play with Me" playing in the background.
16** ''WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall'':
17*** Linkara, the Critic's comic-reading counterpart, has a couple moments like these, which he once referred to as "Combine Harvester" moments, after the music that plays in the background. The first was when he read fanmail to ''Doom's IV'' that said that Creator/RobLiefeld was a genius. The second one was when he discovers that ''Amazons Attack'' was technically a tie-in to ''Countdown''.
18---->'''Linkara:''' (''[[DrivenToSuicide sawing at his wrists with his]] gun'') Why doesn't it work?!
19*** Linkara also had this in ''WebVideo/HistoryOfPowerRangers'', in the ''Series/PowerRangersTurbo'' episode when he saw the Rangers get baked into a giant pizza. He excuses himself, walks away, and then [[TheScream screams on top of his lungs]] before resuming the video.
20*** In the ''Series/PowerRangersMegaforce'' episode of ''[=HoPR=]'', Linkara, in the third case of him actually appearing on camera in ''[=HoPR=]'' (after [[WhamEpisode his shocked reaction to]] [[Series/PowerRangersLostGalaxy Kendrix's death]] and [[{{Headdesk}} banging his head against a wall after]] [[Series/PowerRangersOperationOverdrive Dax lets Miratrix steal a scroll]], then reusing that last clip to express his disdain for Alpha 6 not being voiced by Creator/RichardStevenHorvitz, Creator/WendeeLee, or Caterina Lucciani) is his reaction to [[spoiler: Robo Knight's UnexplainedRecovery]], going LaughingMad, grabbing a gun, getting up from his chair, firing said gun until he empties the magazine, and his laughing turns to outright screaming.
21*** [[Recap/AtopTheFourthWallTheCloneSaga "The Clone Saga"]] sees [[spoiler:the amnesiac Mechakara have a freak out upon finally remembering his identity -- and realizing that he CameBackWrong and was now human (keep in mind, Mechakara was really an evil version of Linkara's RobotBuddy Pollo from an alternate universe and only wore his Linkara's skin).]]
22*** In his review of ''Animax'' #1, Linkara explained that he asked Linksano to explain how the Earth could transform into a wasteland and a paradise after the planet stopped rotating and animals were saved from extinction by transforming into cars, he started screaming and had been for the past three hours.
23** ''WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick'':
24*** While hers are much milder than her [[DistaffCounterpart Spear Counterpart]]'s, she has had a few of her own; most recently in ''Film/FreddyGotFingered'' where she, her friend Nella and co-reviewer [[WebVideo/BrowsHeldHigh Oancitizen]] have a "going mad montage" involving screaming, sausage and mayonnaise.
25*** In the LostEpisode of ''Film/Dune1984'', when a navigator does its thing and she cries about just wanting to understand this ridiculously confusing movie.
26** ''WebVideo/BrowsHeldHigh'':
27*** When Creator/AllisonPregler can't work out the deeper meaning of MC Kung Fu's lyrics in ''Film/CityDragon'', she employs [[WebVideo/BrowsHeldHigh Kyle]] to work it out for her. After watching the film, Kyle starts spouting lines from the film out of context, gradually descending into madness.
28---->'''Kyle:''' I can't speak the English language anymore! God help me!
29*** Kyle himself has had a few incidents of this in his own show. In particular, there was the "if you can't beat 'em..." segment at the end of the ''[[MindScrew What is it?]]'' review, and the PsychicNosebleed and subsequent UnstoppableRage he had after keeping his cool through most of ''[[{{Gorn}} A Serbian Film]]''.
30*** "Creator/SeanConnery [[Film/{{Zardoz}} is]] [[Film/TheWizardOfOz DOROTHY]]"!!!
31** When the IKnowYouAreInThereSomewhereFight fails to work on [[spoiler: The Nostalgia Chick]] in ''WebVideo/ToBoldlyFlee'', [[spoiler:WebVideo/ToddInTheShadows resorts to this trope, showing her his face. WordOfGod is that his face reflects one's soul, and WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick did not like what she saw. This is also why WebVideo/ObscurusLupa was just dandy after looking at it.]]
32* ''WebVideo/CriticalRoleExandriaUnlimited Calamity'': This mini-series takes place on the eve of the Calamity, a DivineConflict that would rage for the next 300 years, destroying all civilizations and killing 2/3rds of the world population. One of the signs foreshadowing this event is every single oracle in the city of Avalir going insane at the same time.
33* ''WebVideo/FilthyFrank'': A gem from the aptly named Lemon Guy: "Uh... I'm A LEMON!"
34* WebVideo/JonTron:
35** This gem from his review of [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII "Final Hallway XIII"]]: "I ''thought'' I was playing the game Jon... [[OhCrap But I've been using the wrong controller this whole time...]] The game's playing itself Jon! The game's playing itself Jon!!! THE GAME'S JUST PLAYING ITSELF JON!!!"
36** He also didn't take the reveal of Conker being a useable asset in VideoGame/ProjectSpark very well if "CONKER IS TOTALLY BACK GUYS" is anything to go by...
37** And then there's his meltdown in ''VideoGame/BanjoKazooie: Nuts & Bolts''
38--->''Cars? Cars...? '''CAAAAAAARRRRRRSSSS!!!!''''' (drops into a song) '''[[Music/WhitneyHouston AND IIIIIIIII]]'''-(HOLY SHIT!)-'''[[Music/WhitneyHouston WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU!]]''' (I can't believe you did this to me, goddammit! How could you do this to me!?!?)
39%%* Once of the consequences of reading a good book discussed [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnbYcB9ctu8 here]] by WebVideo/JosephNanni.
40* Creator/JoshScorcher, a TopTenList maker and a reviewer of ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'', upon witnessing Alicorn Twilight, went utterly apeshit in the same vein of WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic over ''TMNT 3'' with the music [[VideoGame/RabbidsGoHome "Bãtutã Din Moldova"]] playing on the background... but then parodied it as he suddenly calms down, thinks a bit and says, "I'm OK with this."
41* In the ''WebVideo/NatOneProductions'' universe of ''The Last Stage'', the characters have all become noticeably crazier over time. With the most obvious example of Agent PARKER, it seems most field agents are doomed to this fate. Assuming, of course, that they don't end up stomped to death by an EldritchAbomination.
42* ''WebVideo/{{Saberspark}}'':
43** Watching ''WesternAnimation/ChristmasInNewYork'' is so bombastic and chaotic that it drives Saber completely mad. He completely loses his sanity in the [[MindScrew (literal) fever dream of an ending]].
44--->'''Saberspark:''' "That's the movie. That's the movie! ''[[RuleOfThree THAT'S THE MOVIE!]]'' ''[[SuddenlyShouting THAT'S THE MOVIE!!]]'' ''[[MadnessMantra THAT'S THE MOVIE!!!]]'' '''''[[SensoryAbuse THAT'S THE ENTIRE MOVIE!!!! WHAT'S GOING ON?!?!]]'''''" ([[HellIsThatNoise hellish screech]]) (The audio becomes ear-piercingly distorted past his second "That's the movie")
45** In the video about TransformationFiction, Sabie mentions {{Gender Bend|er}}ing as one example of transformation, which Saber did a previous video on the topic. Saber then tells her that that's how "[she] was born", giving her a ThousandYardStare.
46* ''WebVideo/VShojo'': Part of the backstory of several members, as detailed in Ironmouse's lore video; after Ironmouse, aka Satanael, led a number of angels to defy Heaven and break into the chamber where the Creator supposedly dwelt, despite none of them ever having seen him, they encountered... ''something.'' Whatever was in that chamber (whether it was actually the Creator or not is unclear) it so horrified and traumatized them the memory of it was burned from their minds, and all they can remember is the feeling of horror they felt on seeing whatever it was. In addition to causing Ironmouse, Bubi, and everyone else who saw it to become the [[FallenAngel Fallen Angels]] they are now, it's also implied to have caused Nazuna's amnesia, even though she only saw it by ''accident.'' Going off of Nyanner's own lore video, one strong possibility is that it was [[spoiler: [[EldritchAbomination Azathoth]]]].
