  • This performance on French TV of "Girl U Want" has Mark Mothersbaugh singing into an ice cream cone and Bob 1 flipping off the camera.
  • This 1981 interview where Mark casually eats a candy bar and tosses the wrapper on the floor.
  • While the music video for "The Day My Baby Gave Me a Surprize" has some genuine Special Effect Failures, there's also a sequence where it seems more like they were engaging in Stylistic Suck for the laughs. The scene is meant to be one of the members dropping a baby (Bob 1's daughter Alex, by the way), which then goes flying through the sky and lands in a pool; This is represented by him gently handing a live baby to someone off camera, followed by that same baby "flying" past Chroma Key stock footage, followed by the band looking back and forth as though they're watching this, before finally we cut to someone off-camera throwing a store bought baby doll.
