* The Delayed Blast Fireball spell in ''DungeonsAndDragons''. Although technically a time bomb, Delayed Blast Fireball can equally well be used to generate a Shoe-Drop Delay. Its implementation in ''BaldursGate'' was such that it is most often used just as a regular fireball, but the 'delayed' part turns it into an Expository Delay.

* Typically speaking for Hollywood movies and TV production in general, anytime you see a time bomb count down to zero, the explosion will follow ''exactly'' three seconds after. This is usually a result of editing techniques in order to establish another shot to properly show the explosion.
