* ''Anime/CowboyBebop'': Mad Pierrot meets his end in an abandoned amusement park after Spike throws a knife at him. Since it's too slow a projectile to be stopped by Pierrot's forcefield, it hits his leg and wounds him, the first injury he's suffered that he can remember. He's so distracted by the pain that he doesn't realize he's in the path of a parade of robot mascots, and he ends up getting crushed by one of them.

** Downplayed a little in that said weasely backstabbing guy ''probably'' didn't do it on purpose, seeing as he was rather too preoccupied with fleeing in terror for anything clever like making sure there was a decoy behind him.

Compare GiantFootOfStomping and FearsomeFoot. Named after (but has absolutely nothing to do with) a song by Music/LedZeppelin. Not related to CurbStompBattle, although a particularly brutal one-sided fight may involve actual stomping. If the villain ''intentionally'' uses their foot to trample an object of sentimental value to a character, that's CrushTheKeepsake.

* While massacring a village, the sadistic 7 foot tall mercenary, Barracuda, from ''ComicBook/FuryMax'' slices open a pregnant woman's belly causing her unborn child to spill out. She follows up that deranged act by slowly crushing the squealing baby beneath her large boot. All while grinning widely.
