* ''VideoGame/{{Claw}}'': If you get close, you can make Claw pick up enemies, lifting them above his head and listen to their protests before charging up a throw to toss them at someone else. Fairly unpractical because of how vulnerable it makes the player character and high risk of losing treasure to bottomless pits, but still interesting at least for the novelty.
Added DiffLines:
* ''VideoGame/{{Spelunky}}: Stunned or dead enemies of reasonable size can be picked up and thrown just as well as any other throwable. Only those hit by the tossed enemy take damage, not the one thrown, so taking care of a pair of, for example, cavemen entails changing which one you throw at which.
