A character who is stranded on a Deserted Island or other tropical location will often get hit on the head by a falling coconut, if any trees are around. Although the character will usually just suffer Amusing Injuries, there are many people who have been killed this way in real life, since coconuts are fairly heavy and trees can be tens of feet high. Sometimes, the character-hitting coconut is already somehow without a husk. Apart from coconuts, the next most likely fruit to hit a character on the head is apples, in an homage to Sir Isaac Newton's discovery of gravitynote although nowadays there's a consensus that this is just an exaggeration of the official story, which says Newton simply observed as the apple fell, and his head never cushioned the fruit's fall. In Southeast Asia, it is possible for durians to be substituted for the coconuts — given their spiky shape and having heft equal to that of a standard coconut, their potential for killing when falling off trees and hitting someone on the head is quite comparable. Bowling balls can also have a tendency to hit people on the head, even if they are not actually fruit. Should be a note that this supposes a Hard Head. Subtrope of Amusing Injuries. Compare Piano Drop, Anvil on Head, Drop the Washtub, Flower-Pot Drop, Tap on the Head, and Stalactite Spite. Not to be confused with The Coconut Effect. See also Put Their Heads Together, which often has a similar sound effect. |

In an El ChapulÃn Colorado episode, there's a palm tree near a pyramid. El ChapulÃn hits his head with the tree multiple times in the episode, with a coconut dropping on his head every single time (bar the last one, which El ChapulÃn catches before it hits him). | |

The bowling ball gag is repeatedly played for laughs in the Stripperella episode "Evil Things Come in Small Packages". Cat, a fellow stripper, discovers that Erotica is Striperella. The problem is, she keeps getting hit in the head and forgetting it...then learning it again...then getting hit in the head again. | |

Tom and Jerry Both titular characters got hit by coconuts in the short "Surf-Bored Cat". Also happens in Tom and Jerry Singapore short "Ice Ice Paradise" when Tom chases Jerry up a palm tree. Jerry pelts Tom with the coconuts growing on the tree, only for the cat to return the favor by throwing one of the fallen coconuts at the mouse. |

In the Brandy & Mr. Whiskers episode "The Babysitters Flub", when Brandy makes a request for fruit, she has several different fruits dropped on her, including a coconut that, instead of bouncing off her head, breaks open and covers it. The holes on the coconut cause it to briefly turn into an Expressive Mask as she clarifies that she wanted the fruit on a plate. | |

My Little Pony: My Little Pony 'n Friends: In "Bright Lights, Part 4", Arabus fires a lightning bolt at the Flutter Ponies. He misses and the bolt hits an apple tree, causing apples to fall down and burst on his rat minions. My Little Pony Tales: In "Shop Talk", Teddy blames Sweetheart for spreading rumors that he sleeps with a teddy bear. During his tirade, he bucks an apple tree in frustration, and all its apples rain down on him. My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: In "Fall-Weather Friends", after Applejack shows up Rainbow Dash in a test of strength, AJ kicks the tree Dash is standing under, causing some apples to fall out of the tree and land on Dash's head (to the tune of Shave and a Haircut, no less). |

Total Drama: A squirrel goes down for the count in "Hide and Be Sneaky" when an acorn drops on its head. The acorn was (presumably) shaken loose from the tree (which is an evergreen) because Geoff climbed into it to use as a hiding spot. A coconut hits Courtney in the head mid-rant in "Haute Camp-ture", which prompts her to complain to the camera that coconuts aren't geographically correct props for the area of Muskoka. She gets what she wants a second later when in order a large pile of snow, a sledge, and a Native Canadian fall on top of her. |

Mario Party: Mario Party 3 and Superstars have a minigame called Coconut Conk, which consists of three players butt-slamming coconut trees to make the coconuts fall on the fourth person, who is rolling along the floor in a barrel. If the solo player is successfully hit in Superstars, this will destroy the barrel entirely. Mario Party 6: Played with in the minigame Banana Shake. The players have to shake the banana trees to make their fruit fall down, but it's not them which can hit and stun the characters, but the hammers that were somehow placed in the treetops. The shake is done by repeatedly tapping A, while the evasion is done by pressing B. Mario Party 8: In the minigame Flip the Chimp, four Ukikis (each representing a player) have to climb thin, yet tall trees planted within an amusement park. While they do so, they have to move sideways to avoid being hit by coconuts that fall down (being hit will briefly stun them and make them waste time). The Ukiki that reaches the goal line at the top first will render their represented player victorious, though it's possible to have more than one character win should two or more Ukikis reach the goal at the same time. Conversely, in Duel mode, only two Ukikis are competing (in defense of their respective playable characters), and if both make it to the goal at the same time a tie is declared and neither player wins. |

The Beatles: In "Can't Buy Me Love", the boys are on holiday in Polynesia where George is trying to break open a coconut. When he sees a monkey eating a freshly broken one, he asks "How do those tiny monkeys ever open those big coconuts?" The monkey throws a coconut at George's head, knocking him out cold and breaking the coconut open. John uses the same ploy to escape the tribe chief's administrators when he's forced to marry the tribe chief's daughter. | |

An odd variant happened in the second episode of VeggieTales. in the second segment, "Larry's Lagoon", (an obvious homage to Gilligan's Island) Bob had climbed a coconut tree to look for Larry (who had run away due to everyone blaming him for the boat crashing), and then The Professor (Dad Asparagus) shows off a catapult that he invented in the hopes of flinging everyone home and used a (sapient) coconut as a demonstration, and then it hit Bob in the head (more like his whole body), sending him falling out of the tree and into the house of the millionaire and his wife. | |

At the beginning of the Sonic Boom episode "Cowbot", when Knuckles throws Sonic into the tree to make coconuts drop down, one of the coconuts falls on Amy's head. |

In Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!, a sidequest in Scorch has Hunter asking for Spyro's help in retrieving monkeys that escaped from the zoo. You're required to charge the palm trees they're in to knock them off before they throw coconuts at Hunter, though the coconuts can also hurt you. | |

The qualifies-for-the-Censored Eleven Tex Avery MGM cartoon Half-Pint Pygmy's climax had the titular Living Macguffin set up a trap using one of these to bonk the heads of his pursuing hunters, followed by many gags with the coconut hitting more jungle animals (not usually on the head) until it comes back and hits him in the end. | |

In the Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers episode "Chipwrecked Shipmunks", Chip gets coconuts to the head. Now add to this the fact that one coconut is both bigger and heavier than a chipmunk, and that Chip is standing on sand. | |
