* In the second chapter of ''Love Aquarium'' Gugu throws a hamster (because it was in his co-worker's pocket) at a man with a bloody knife, threatening the main character for sneaking into an off-limit zone. The man faints from a hamster to the face.

Many games also have a [[JokeItem gag]] weapon for each of the party members, which is essentially an Improbable or NerfArm version of their regular weapon, like the following: a [[CombatHandFan fan]], a [[WoodenKatanasAreEvenBetter wooden sword]] for the sword-wielder, a broom for the WhiteMagicianGirl, or a squeaky-mallet for someone who normally wields an axe or [[DropTheHammer hammer]]. Of course, this might end up [[SubvertedTrope subverted]] with an [[InfinityPlusOneSword Infinity Plus One]] slingshot which fires [[LethalJokeItem dangerous marshmallows]]. Sometimes they may be StatSticks instead, things that are "equipped" as a "weapon" to give the user the stats but aren't actually used for attacking. Compare TheManMakesTheWeapon for when someone deliberately use a gag substitute of a real weapon to showcase his skill.

* ''Manhua/InfinityGame'':
** Meibo uses chalk, a lot, as a throwable weapon and apparently carries boxes of the stuff around with her. She's strong enough with it to break down Long Wei's door.
** The team defeat a monster by hitting its weak spot with a Ronald [=McDonald=] statue.
* In the second chapter of ''Love Aquarium'' Gugu throws a hamster (because it was in his co-worker's pocket) at a man with a bloody knife, threatening the main character for sneaking into an off-limit zone. The man faints from a hamster to the face.

[[folder:Music]]
* "Every Dog Has Its Day" by Music/FloggingMolly contains the line, "That night on the bridge, with my shovel in hand / Well he threatened to kill me; for sure he picked the wrong man." Of course, a shovel probably only seems like an improbable weapon until someone beats you with it.
* ''Music/EvilliousChronicles'': In "Tailor Shop on Enbizaka]]", [[{{Yandere}} Kayo Sudou]] kills four people with ''tailoring scissors.'' Admittedly, they were an ArtifactOfDoom, though...
* The AmbiguouslyHuman main character of Music/TomWaits' song "Black Wings", we are told, "once killed a man with a guitar string". We are given no further details on this [[NoodleIncident incident.]]

[[folder:Podcasts]]
* Yoshi from the ''Podcast/CoolKidsTable'' game ''Here We Gooooo!'' wields a shell, though this isn't very improbable in the context of the Mario universe.
