-->'''Plankton:''' The [[MindControlDevice helmets]] can't handle [[ThePowerOfRock this level of Rock and Roll]]!

* The intro dream sequence in ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda'' has this:

** Lordgenome also repeatedly sets himself on fire by doing awesome things and [[RankScalesWithAsskicking generally]] being [[RatedMForManly Lordgenome]].

* ''VideoGame/SengokuBasara''. The characters are all so [[RatedMForManly manly]] and HotBlooded that something's bound to spontaneously explode from the sheer overwhelming awesome at ''least'' OnceAnEpisode.

** Lordgenome also repeatedly sets himself on fire by doing awesome things and [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking generally]] being [[RatedMForManly Lordgenome]].

->''"God knows what would happen if you spread Branston Pickle onto ''No More Heroes''. Possibly the universe would explode. And it would be ''awesome''."''

* In ''TabletopGame/AdeptusEvangelion'' your ability to pull off awesome things in your mecha is a stat called Synch ratio, which can change when you get hurt. [[MoreDakka More=better]], at least until you go [[RankInflation above 100%]] at which point it [[DeadlyUpgrade starts to]] eat your soul alive. Then you pass [[UpToEleven 200%]] and essentally attain the [[RealityWarper power]] of [[PhysicalGod god]]. In less than five minutes, you will collapse into [[MythologyGag Tang]]. It is sure to be a awesome moment, and a DyingMomentOfAwesome.

A SubTrope of AwesomenessIsAForce.

[[caption-width-right:350:He'd have worn a HazmatSuit, but he's too awesome for that.]]

* [[InvokedTrope Very heavily used]] in a commercial for Verizon, wherein Michael Bay spent the entire commercial saying how he doesn't just have things, he has ''awesome'' things. And every time he points out an ''awesome'' piece of furniture, appliance, or even [[SerialEscalation his POOL]], it [[StuffBlowingUp erupts in a huge fireball]]. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXRCf9LbLM0 Awesome Barbecue.]]

* In a commercial for [=PS3=] motion tracking games, a montage of said games play as a ([[SorryILeftTheBGMOn ''real'']]) operatic duo sings in the background. It all ends when a random houseplant catches on fire, shocking the entire family.

* Parodied in a crossover between ''Videogame/DigimonWonderSwanSeries'' and ''Manga/DigimonVTamer01'' with a HandWave that Taichi and Ryo's enemy was a cryokinetic who was weak to {{hot blood}}ed, allowing them to negate his attempts to freeze Zeromaru and Monodramon through pure passion.

* The Creator/TerryCrews Old Spice commercials tend to include random explosions. Makes sense though, you have a buff black man who uses Old Spice. Can't get much more awesome than that. Of course, they're made by Tim and Eric. On one occasion, Old Spice Guy claimed that if he and his rival Fabio were ever in the same room their combined pizazz would destroy the universe. They ''did'', but thankfully all that happened was a bit of reality rearrangement, some time travel, things went [[Series/DoctorWho wibbly wobbly]], and after a heartfelt speech from Isaiah got past-Fabio to back down, everything went back to normal. *[[EarWorm Old Spice jingle whistle]]*

* Advertising/SegataSanshiro doeq a judo throw on a guy so hard that he explodes. ''Twice.''

* This is how most [[MadScientist Sparks]] operate in ''Webomic/GirlGenius'', with Agatha in particular standing out, as evidenced by Vole's report on a local coffee shop in Mechanicsburg.

* Advertising/SegataSanshiro did a judo throw on a guy so hard that he exploded. ''Twice.''

* In ''WesternAnimation/GnomeoAndJuliet'', users of the Terrafirminator are warned in the advert that 'In some rare cases, users may explode when viewing the Terrafirminator.'

* [=JB=] has a dream sequence in ''Film/TenaciousDInThePickOfDestiny'' where his singing is so awesome it makes a dude's head explode.
-->''"I did not mean! To blow your mind! But that shit happens to me...all the time!"''

* It's very often in ''Franchise/SuperSentai'' / ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' team ups for this to occur: Both teams morph, do an AssKickingPose, and then things behind them explode due to how awesome having both teams morph in the same place at the same time is. Most notable is the ''[[Series/PowerRangersInSpace In Space]] / [[Series/PowerRangersLostGalaxy Lost Galaxy]]'' team up, which happens right before the two groups ''[[CurbStompBattle whoop the asses of the PSYCHO RANGERS.]]''

* Mindy suffers an awesomeness-induced coma in [[http://www.cinemabums.com/?p=345 this]] ''WebComic/CinemaBums'' strip.

* ''WebComic/SequentialArt'': Art creates [[http://www.collectedcurios.com/sequentialart.php?s=665 an image that combines all known fetishes]]. When Pip looks at it, his head explodes. He's not to complain though.
-->'''Pip''': "That's some good shit..."

* WebSite/SFDebris assumes this about ''Film/StarTrekIITheWrathOfKhan'':
-->"Ceti Alpha VI just blew up one day. I really have no idea how that just happened. Best guess, Khan took his shirt off, and his genetically enhanced Latin body was just too much for it to take."
** When reviewing ''Trials and Tribblelations'' Sisko, Spock and Kirk are on the screen at the same time, and Chuck's computer shut down for *ahem* ...personal, reasons...
-->'My computer — [[ICallItVera Ruby]] — shut down, and I noticed a wet spot under her processor."
* According to Website/ChuckNorrisFacts, if Creator/ChuckNorris and Creator/MrT walk into a room together, that room will explode due to the combined awesomeness being too much to contain.
** One time, Creator/MrT once pitied a fool at the exact moment Chuck Norris roundhouse-kicked him in the ribs. The result was TheEighties.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1n3VSw1XBOo&t=2m0s 2:00 into this video]] from ''WebVideo/ImAMarvelAndImADC''. Now even though the mixed reviews of both meant that didn't happen, it otherwise counts as this trope.
* From [[http://www.badassoftheweek.com/ripley.html Badass of the Week,]] discussing [[Franchise/{{Alien}} Ellen Ripley]], came this line describing how a mecha suit fighting a space monster seemed like something you'd just have to imagine, "the fact that it's an actual scene from a movie makes my head want to implode from the G-force that the "Awesomeness Field" around my computer is generating."
* ''WebAnimation/ZeroPunctuation'' at the end of the ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes'' review claims the universe would end (but it would be awesome) if ''No More Heroes'' was combined with Branston Pickle. (Whereas Branston Pickle + Chocolate Eggs = {{Squick}}).

* As Website/AlternateHistoryDotCom [[http://wiki.alternatehistory.com/doku.php/offtopic/keira_knightley found out:]]
-->"Creator/KeiraKnightley, along with Creator/NataliePortman may hold the key to the salvation of the Universe itself. If Creator/SamuelLJackson and Creator/MrT were to ever team up, they might well keep their beer in the same fridge. Any fridge used by both Jackson and T would be the coolest object known to mankind, so cool that it might slowly bring all atomic motion to a halt. The only way to avert this would be for Keira Knightley and Natalie Portman [[GirlOnGirlIsHot to make out]], thus producing an equivalent level of hotness to counter the sheer coolness of the Jackson/Mr. T fridge."

* ''WebAnimation/DeathBattle'' once pitted Creator/ChuckNorris against Japanese MemeticBadass Advertising/SegataSanshiro. The result? [[spoiler:Their battle is so insanely awesome it ''destroys the universe''.]]

[[folder: Western Animation]]
* The intro dream sequence in ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda'' has this:
-->'''Po (narrating):''' He was so deadly in fact, that his enemies would go blind from over exposure to pure awesomeness!
* TheOmniscientCouncilOfVagueness of ''{{WesternAnimation/Metalocalypse}}'' believes that the end of the world shall be caused by the EpicRocking of the main characters' band Dethklok. [[TheCuckoolanderWasRight They seem to be on the ball]].
* In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qS5WNz8UbU8 this scene]] from the [[WesternAnimation/AquaTeenHungerForce ATHF movie]] Meatwad busts out a guitar solo so face meltingly awesome, and on a ''two string toy guitar'' no less, that he explodes when he finishes.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheSpongeBobSquarePantsMovie''
-->'''Plankton:''' The [[MindControlDevice helmets]] can't handle [[ThePowerOfRock this level of Rock and Roll]]!

* In ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'', Simon and [[spoiler:Viral]] once actually killed an armada of enemies with nothing but the [[AwesomenessIsAForce sheer awesome]] they radiate.

** Lordgenome also repeatedly sets himself on fire by doing awesome things and [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking generally]] [[CrazyAwesome being]] [[RatedMForManly Lordgenome]].
