* In ''Literature/TheRiseOfKyoshi'' and ''Literature/TheShadowOfKyoshi'', Kyoshi learns how to "dust-step" from the Flying Opera Company. It appears as though they're walking on air, but it's NotQuiteFlight -- they're actually walking on lots of dust particles too small to be seen. Waterbenders can do a similar thing called "mist-stepping".

* ''VideoGame/HiddenDragonLegend'' have several moments where you scale pits by hopping on collapsing rocks or debris, though it's achieved via QuickTimeEvents instead of actually controlling your character. For instance, leaping off a temple roof and knocking down three "Flying Machine" puppets, one at a time, or the mountain chase where you jump on rocks and a collapsing bridge to cross a chasm.
