14	->''"His mother [...] told him, before his little milk tusks had dropped out, that elephants who were afraid always got hurt. Kala Nag knew that that advice was good, for the first time that he saw a shell burst he backed, screaming, into a stand of piled rifles, and the bayonets pricked him in all his softest places."''
15	-->-- ''[[Literature/TheJungleBook Toomai of the Elephants]]''

17	Even though it hurts, [[AmusingInjuries pain can be funny]]. [[JokeOfTheButt Butts can also be funny]]. So combining the two is hilarious!
18
19	This trope is pretty straight forward. A character receives some sort of trauma to their backside. As mentioned above this trope often appears in slapstick or otherwise humorous context. This is because in addition to the fact that butts, particularly large ones, are often seen as inherently humorous and because butts are naturally padded, so if something or someone strikes it there's less likely to be any serious injury involved.
20
21	This tends to happen to plumper characters more often since their butts are naturally bigger targets.
22
23	{{Subtrope}} of JokeOfTheButt. A super trope to RumpRoast, ButtBiter, LiteralAssKicking, AnalProbing, ThumbtackOnTheChair, ShotInTheAss, AssShove, and ComedicSpanking. Compare AttackTheTail (where the target is even further beyond the rear end), contrast ButtSticker and AssKicksYou (where it's the butt that hurts someone else) and see also FlirtatiousSmackOnTheAss (where it's not meant to be painful so much as sexy).

Moana just takes it, but the Ocean intervenes by sticking a blowdart (from an earlier encounter) into Maui's backside, paralyzing him. Moana then takes control of the boat. (It makes way more sense in context.)
55	-->'''Maui:''' Blowdart. In my buttcheek. You are a bad, bad person.

61	-->'''David Hasselhoff''': Ooh! Take it easy back there, fellas.
62	* ''WesternAnimation/WitchesInStitches'' ends with Abnorma taking her anger out on her sisters Nelliespell and Wickie by chasing them and using her magic to zap them in their behinds.

96	[[/folder]]
97
98	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
99	* A mini-arc in ''Series/EverybodyLovesRaymond'' featured Robert's injury in the line of duty when he was gored in the [[InsistentTerminology Upper Thigh Region]] by a bull that escaped from an illegal rodeo. Certainly made for a memorable arc because of the nature of how a police officer was downed and partially the embarrassment Robert faced when it was revealed that the by-standard footage went viral.
100	* ''Series/{{Farscape}}''. In "Thanks for Sharing", Crichton is [[AnalProbing alarmed]] when Jool, wielding a long and sinister tool, tells him to turn and drop his pants.

108	[[/folder]]
109
110	[[folder:Music]]
111	* The German "Stimmungslied" "Da sprach der alte Häuptling der Indianer" ("Thus Spake the Old Indian Chief") by Gus Backus. His squaw pokes him in the butt with an arrow to hinder him going on war path against the new railway. He gets better. And a job as train conductor.
112	* "It's Still Music/BillyJoel to Me", an early Music/WeirdAlYankovic parody, has this stanza:
113	-->''Maybe he should dye his hair bright pink and stick a safety pin through his cheeks''\
114	''Then he'll really fit the new wave image but he couldn't sit down for weeks''
115	* The climax of Music/TheLonelyIsland's "Threw It On The Ground" has the narrator being tased in the anus by "two Hollywood phonies" as the [[LaserGuidedKarma consequence]] of him [[FlippingTheTable throwing their table to the ground]] after falsely accusing them of trying to give him their autograph.
116	--> I was screaming, and squirming, \
117	My butthole was on fire! \
118	The moral of the story is, \
119	[[SpoofAesop You can't trust the system, man!]]
120	[[/folder]]
121
122	[[folder:Music Videos]]
123	* Music/BubbleButt: The video has at least two examples:
124	** At the start, after [[GiantWoman Buttzilla]] lands next to a brownstone building, she summons bike pumps from her mouth that slither into an apartment inside and [[AssShove shove themselves up three women's butts]] and [[InflatingBodyGag inflate their butts to ridiculous size.]]
125	** Later on, a female acrobat who is dancing on aerial silks starts twerking. As she twerks, her butt cheeks start rapidly swelling up, and she explodes ass-first into confetti that rains down on the other dancers.
126	[[/folder]]
127
128	[[folder:ProfessionalWrestling]]
129	* During an intergender match pitting Edge and Lita against John Cena and Maria, Lita was being portrayed as more experienced than Maria, as a way to mock Maria Lita would target Maria's butt throughout the time they were in the ring together. This included doing things like slapping it over and over again, kicking and even stomping on her ass.
130	* The Atomic Drop is this to the [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/rumble-roses/images/7/71/Vs200705-007.JPG/revision/latest?cb=20200706060524 unfortunate]] opponent.
131	* As described by Jim Cornette, a common way for a face male to get revenge on a heel valet or other female assuming [[DesignatedGirlFight he doesn't have a face woman who would stand up for him]] would be a "butt bump". Usually this would be the face doing something that targets said female's butt such as the aforementioned Atomic Drop or other methods such as spanking. As the butt is a rather sensitive area and very little risk of injury of hitting the area (though the atomic drop notably targets the lower tailbone of the victim) it usually bypasses the audience sense of [[WouldntHitAGirl men shouldn't hit women]] and can be both satisfying and funny to the people watching.
132	** Two of the most notable examples of this was Hulk Hogan who gave a well deserved Atomic Drop to Sensational Sherri after she has been a thorn on his and many of his allies side for years. The audience ate it up, later when Miss Elizabeth in WCW turned evil herself her formally innocent butt wasn't safe from Hogan's knee either.
133	[[/folder]]
134
135	[[folder:Video Games]]
136	* There are several butt related injuries that ''VideoGame/CrashBandicoot'' (and later Coco) can suffer from in the series, such as burning their butts from falling in lava, having them stung by bees, poked by spikes, or an explosive blast from a land mine.
137	* Bass from the ''VideoGame/DeadOrAlive'' fighting games has access to an atomic drop where his opponents after landing on his muscular knee [[PainPoweredLeap his opponent]] jumps up off his knee tending to their aching [[https://www.deviantart.com/allthestawf/art/DOA5LR-Momiji-vs-Naotora-in-a-dat-ass-match-2-621245570 backsides]]. Bonus points to Marie Rose as seeing a hulking 6'5 346 monster drop a pint sized 4'10 86 girl with such force on her tailbone is quite amusing.
138	* ''VideoGame/{{Deadpool}}'': DP ends up finishing [[spoiler:the clone of]] Mister Sinister with a sword into his anus.
139	* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTearsOfTheKingdom'': If horribilins are knocked down from a cave's ceiling via a headshot or Dazzle Fruit, they'll hit the ground butt-first while taking FallDamage and spend a while howling in pain while clutching their behinds.
140	* ''VideoGame/MarioParty'' loves this, when considering the sheer frequency in which even someone like Rosalina, can get her butt [[RumpRoast burned]], stung or otherwise comically injured.
141	* Should Raffina get hit with a particularly powerful attack in ''VideoGame/PuyoPuyo'', an animation will play of her ''getting struck in the backside with a Garbage Puyo''. How humiliating...
142	* Due to being a fanservice game with (mostly) female characters, ''VideoGame/RumbleRoses'' features many girls attacking each other in ways that hurt their butts, such as getting roughly thrown down onto the ring. Some damage animations have the victimized girl rubbing her behind in pain.
143	* In the arcade game of ''Manga/SailorMoon'' some of the mooks do a kick attack that if it hits either Moon or Venus from behind both are shown tending to their sailor butts momentarily before being controllable again. Though in this case all senshi flinch but only said two tend to said area.
144	* [[Franchise/SpyroTheDragon Spyro]] in ''[[VideoGame/Spyro2RiptosRage Ripto’s Rage]]'' and ''[[VideoGame/SpyroYearOfTheDragon Year of the Dragon]]'' as well as the [[VideoGame/SpyroReignitedTrilogy Reignited Trilogy]] versions of them, whenever he is hit by fire attacks or lands in lava, the little purple dragon jumps up into the air holding his painfully burnt butt with his front paws.
145	* Going into ''VideoGame/StreetFighterV'', Zangief lost his brutal looking forward throw for an even more brutal looking atomic drop. When the victim falls seated into his knee a loud "crunch" is heard. Seeing Zangief do this to the barely over 100 pound Ibuki makes one wonder how her spine didn't split in two upon impact.
146	* ''VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy2'': Defeating Peewee Pirahna requires smashing open his [[EggshellClothing egg diaper]] and then jumping onto his large exposed rump.
147	* ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros''
148	** [[VideoGame/MegaManClassic Mega Man]] appears to lift his female opponents by their butts over his head in his throw. His pummel attack involves him squeezing the grabbed area [[https://i.imgur.com/Plf5QFn.jpg very hard.]]
149	** [[VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry Diddy Kong]] has access to the banana item as part of his natural kit. This can easily mean lots of hard rump landings.
150	** [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Princess Peach]] can do this to herself with her Peach Bomber. She thrust her princess butt forward and if she doesn't make contact when she lands on the floor one can see visible discomfort on her face when her [[https://i.imgur.com/XUKQB00.jpg butt]] makes contact with the hard floor. This can't be good for Peach's long term spinal health.
151	* In ''VideoGame/TatsunokoVsCapcom'' every character can suffer a little butt pain at the hands of Roll thanks to Roll setting said butt on [[RumpRoast fire]]. Fortunately for them Roll also puts it out by sending a giant tidal wave of water to them.
152	* Yoshi can be subject to this in the ''VideoGame/YoshisIsland'' series of games if he either touches spikes or falls in lava.
153	[[/folder]]
154
155	[[folder:Web Animation]]
156	* ''WebAnimation/WeeblAndBob'' side-series "On The Moon" features [[StupidJetpackHitler a miniature Hitler piloting a robot on the Moon]] who runs afoul of a land mine. The detonation does his butt no favors--you can hear him shriek "mein Arschloch!" as he and his burning MiniMecha are sent flying into the distance, flame spewing from ''its'' rear end as well just in case you weren't wholly sure that Miniature Space Hitler was suffering enough AmusingInjuries.

160	* A DownplayedTrope in [[https://twitter.com/milkmochabear/status/1309162187034771456 this comic]] from ''WebComic/MilkAndMocha'' features Mocha drumming on Milk's butt.
161	[[/folder]]
162
163	[[folder:Web Original]]
164	* This comedy mechanism has been discussed in the Big Cartoon Forum, here: [[http://forums.bcdb.com/t/poked-posteriors.563/]]. Granted, it's all Western Animation stuff, but posteriors get poked nonetheless.
165	* Baysa gits a pin stuck into his butt via Peter in part 15 of ''WebAnimation/MinecraftForNoobs'', after he teleports directly onto him attempting to do voodoo on Baysa.

168	[[folder:Western Animation]]
169	* At the beginning of the ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}} (1993)'' episode "Hot, Bothered and Bedeviled", we are introduced to three singers that welcome the damned into hell with a cheerful swing performance in which they speak of the torments they’ll be subjected to for eternity. During the musical number, one unlucky fellow gets an unpleasant surprise poke with a pitchfork from behind. It still isn’t as bad as the other more gruesome fates in hell, like being thrown into the hot lava or being forced to watch re-runs of The Facts Of Life. The three singers finish the musical number by dropping it low as we get a shot from behind where, right below each one of them, stands a short demon with a pitchfork at hand. The three demons deliver one firm jab of their pitchforks to the unsuspecting rear-ends right above them, making all three singers [[PainPoweredLeap jump off screen out of the pain]].
170	* ''WesternAnimation/ClassicDisneyShorts'' seemed unusually interested in Walt's cartoon animals' rear ends--and in particular, administering physical punishment to them when their owner is incapable of escape:
171	** In ''The Flying Mouse'' (1934) The mouse boy tries to fly with 2 leaves and falls in the mud pit. He then tries again only to have the the wind gust blow him backwards and his exposed furry rear end gets poked by a tree thorn, he then falls in the tub and gets his sisters dress wet and shrinks her dress. His mother gets mad at him, the mouse boy tries to escape but his mother grabs his tail and spanks his furry rear end until it turns pink. He runs off and rubs his bottom and cries.
172	** In ''The Band Concert'' (1935), a passing tornado leaves Donald Duck trapped between two intertwined trees, his arms, legs, and head facing one direction and his butt prominently pointed in the other. The tornado sends the band members, their instruments and assorted debris spinning in the air, and a particularly obese pig’s butt sliding along a picket fence, breaking off their pointed tops as he goes.
173	** In ''The Practical Pig'' (1939), the titular character catches his brothers lying. His elaborate mechanical lie detector scoops them up, firmly straps them in butt-upwards and paddles their exposed fannies glowing red. Earlier in the cartoon, the camera (viewing from a low angle that suggests it’s eavesdropping on them) lingers on their butts as they squeeze into tight bathing trunks. (The shot is particularly curious in the fact they normally run about bare-assed to begin with.)
174	** Donald Duck seemed particularly prone to wind up in this sort of situation. In ''WesternAnimation/ModernInventions'' (1937) an automated barber’s chair turns Donald upside-down, ties a towel around his feathery fanny and tries to give his tail feathers an unwanted trim.
175	** In ''Donald's Vacation'' (1940) while Donald Duck is taking a nap while the chipmunks raid and steal Donald's food, one chipmunk holds up a pineapple and accidently pokes Donald's exposed rear end hanging from the chair and he leaps in pain and gets stuck in his folding chair.
176	** In ''Window Cleaners'' (1940), while being hoisted upwards on a scaffold, Donald’s tail feathers are clipped clean off by someone trimming their window plants, leaving the tip of his tail pink and featherless. (His feathers replenish themselves by the following shot.) The entire last half of the eight-minute cartoon is devoted to Donald’s battle with Spike the Bee, who he pisses off by trying to drown him in a tulip, which culminates with the duck completely tangled in the scaffold’s ropes, his butt fully exposed to the vengeful bee. The bee, himself exhausted by the battle, slowly summons his remaining energy to attack the helpless duck's exposed rear end, allowing Donald plenty of time to fearfully await his impending punishment. Spike stings Donald's rear end hard which sends him straight into the drainpipe via PainPoweredLeap. He gets stuck in the drainpipe, and after he tries to yell at Pluto to get him out of there, Pluto shoves Donald's head back into the drainpipe and goes back to sleep.
177	** In ''Donald's Snow Fight'' (1942) in a standoff between Donald on the ice ship and his nephews in their ice fort. Donald duck attacks Hewey Duey and Louie with snowballs and splits the flagpole which spanks 3 of his nephew on their rear end. His nephews retaliate and they start off with making snow bomb missiles with mousetraps which they rain and bombarded Donald's head and his rear end. The last snow bomb hits Donald's tail feather and the mousetrap gets stuck on his tail feathers, Donald Duck throws a temper tantrum after getting mousetraps stuck on his hands and beak.
178	** In ''Chip an' Dale'' Chip and Dale rolls the snowball which Donald opens and the snowball crashes into Donald and breaks the back door open. Donald Duck is stuck helpless in the snow and Dale opens the door and sees Donalds exposed rear end which he kicks him and Donald screams.
179	** In ''Inferior Decorator'' (1948) after tormenting Spike the bee, the bee gets revenge and goes in the keyhole and tries to dive unsuccessfully at Donald's rear end which he gets stuck on the wallpaper glue. Donald Duck gets into a tug of war and tries unsuccessfully to get the bee off the wallpaper. The bee gets free but launches Donald into the ceiling with his hands glued on the wallpaper. The bee then begins to try many times to sting Donalds exposed feathery butt but fails, then Donald somehow got his body hidden inside the wallpaper on the ceiling and the Bee tears open the ceiling and exposes Donald's butt and he invites his bee friends to sting Donalds butt one by one off screen and Donald screams and it ends on a cliffhanger. It's unknown how he survived multiple stings to his rear end.
180	** In ''Three for Breakfast'' (1948) While Chip and Dale tries to pull the rubber pancake, he places the fork behind Chip and he walks backwards and gets his furry rear end stabbed and leaps in pain.
181	** In ''Slide Donald Slide'' (1949) Donald Duck fights over the radio with Spike the Bee who is trying to listen to the classical music on the radio, while Donald wants to listen to a baseball game. Donald plays baseball and runs around the bases but Spike the bee gets revenge and Donald's butt slides into the stinger and does a pain powered leap. The bee sends Donald in the shower and locks him in the shower and finishes listening to the classical song on the radio.
182	* The ''WesternAnimation/DCSuperheroGirls2019'' short "[=#BigScreenBully=]" has Bumblebee get back at Giganta for ruining her enjoyment of watching the latest ''Just Before Dusk'' movie by shrinking and stinging her in the butt, afterwards it's implied she does the same to Harley.
183	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'': In "The Deep South", when the Planet Express crew goes on a fishing expedition, Leela brings out a harpoon. Bender scoffs:
184	-->'''Bender:''' Harpoon, my ass! Heh heh heh heh...\
185	'''Leela:''' Okay. ''([[LiteralistSnarking and she does]])''
186	* When the villain captures the dune buggy of ''WesternAnimation/JosieAndThePussycats'' with a claw lowered from a helicopter, Alan, Josie and Alexandra fall out of the vehicle onto the ground. Alan and Josie are fine, but Alexandra, as the TokenEvilTeammate and ButtMonkey of the group, finds herself sitting on a cactus. The TeamPet Sebastian amuses himself by extracting the needles from Alexandra's tender tissues.
187	** In fact, throughout the series, whether it's getting poked in the rear by a drill, landing ass-first on a cactus, or getting her butt cheeks pinched by a crab's claw, Alexandra tends to receive a lot of rump-targeted pain.
188	* ''WesternAnimation/LoonaticsUnleashed'': Lexi Bunny has on three separate occasions delivered a low-level psionic zap to Danger Duck's tail, each time in response to some calumny uttered by Duck. It's a superpowered equivalent of a spank upon rude youngster. "Hey! Easy on the tail feathers!"
189	* ''WesternAnimation/RenAndStimpy'' has featured a couple of examples in their time usually happening to Stimpy (one of the perils of having a big butt). One very infamous one is from the episode [[Recap/RenAndStimpy2x07SonOfStimpy "Son of Stimpy"]] when Stimpy tries to fart for Ren. Stimpy's butt cheeks strain so hard they actually wind up ''deflating'' like a couple of balloons. [[DismissiveKick Then Ren kicks at the deflated remains.]]
190	* In "Goldringer" from ''WesternAnimation/SpecialAgentOso'', Oso finds a boomerang and is told by a girl that "If you throw it, it comes back to you." He throws it and comes back... and bonks him on the butt.
191	* ''WesternAnimation/TaleSpin'': In "Baloo Thunder", Baloo tries to sneak into Shere Khan Industries by [[HumanMail hiding in a cardboard box to pass off as a delivery]]. Ms. Snarley, Shere Khan's secretary, believes the package to be the giant pincushion that Khan ordered, so she decides to see if it works. She pulls out a giant bobby pin and pokes it through the box. She pokes Baloo in the butt, and he leaps out in pain.
192	* "WesternAnimation/TimonAndPumbaa in Stand By Me" is a music video of Timon singing the acclaimed Ben E. King song, only dedicating the lyrics to his long time friend Pumbaa. The thing is, every time Timon reaches the chorus with "stand by me", out of some twisted irony a bunch of wacky and slapstick misfortunes fall upon Pumbaa one after the other. One of these happens to be a group of porcupines running on a row right below Pumbaa, as he bounces with his rear end on each of their quills. He barely has a second to recover before one last small porcupine bolts bellow him for good meassure, dealing a quick final jab that's especially unexpected and unpleasant for him.
193	* This happens to Dick Dastardly as well in ''WesternAnimation/WackyRaces'' when one of his [[DickDastardlyStopsToCheat plans to stop the other racers]] ends up with him in a bushel of cacti. Muttley uses a wrench to pluck the needles from Dastardly's keister.
194	-->'''Dastardly:''' And remember...you're not plucking a chicken!
