Hammered into the Ground | comment |
A situation where a victim would literally be at least partially driven into the ground, whether through an attack, heavy fall, or by any other forceful means. Especially seen in cartoons and in video games, where being driven into the ground can be Played for Laughs. In situations like this, the victim would remain mostly intact, aside from the fact that he is at least partway into the earth. Very occasionally, it is presented seriously, with a target (such as an armored robot) who is "realistically" durable enough to survive this sort of thing. A variant of this trope may occur when a character is hit extremely hard - they'll be hammered with enough force that they get shot through the earth and will reappear on the other side of the world. See also Anvil on Head and Squashed Flat. Examples |

Subverted in Battle Chess. When a rook captures a knight, the rook hits the knight on the head, driving him downward until only his helmet is visible; but it turns out that the knight didn't get planted in the ground: instead the rest of his body collapsed into his helmet, and he waddles about on two feet that can still be seen protruding from it. | |

Crash Bandicoot: Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back: Some of the forest levels have an enemy that keeps swinging a mallet. Upon being hit by it, Crash will be pounded deep into the ground, and a gravestone grows out from where he was hit. Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped: If the triceratops from the prehistoric levels runs over Crash, he will be flattened, and the triceratops will repeatedly stomp on him over and over so he can't get back up. |

Looney Tunes In "Rabbit Fire", an elephant piledrives Elmer into the ground with one punch. Wile E. Coyote got this treatment more than once, particularly when his own inventions backfire on him.

The Classic Disney Shorts were not above using this one. The Goofy short "The Art of Self-Defense" begins with a history of fighting, starting with two cavemen hitting each other with clubs. They eventually drive each other through a rock ledge, and when they can't club each other anymore, they take to kicking each other's shins instead. In "Clown of the Jungle", Donald Duck has had enough of the Aracuan bird and hammers him through the ground. The Aracuan reappears from Behind the Black to help Donald hammer. |

This is a recurring ability in the Mario & Luigi subseries, with one of the brothers pounding the other one into the ground so he can reach new areas and uncover buried items. In Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, this happens to Big Massif in the Dream World, when his apprentices boast how he could smash even the largest possible rock. Cue him trying to smash the rock with his first as it comes down, then being smashed on the head by it with a loud metal-like sound before getting driven into the ground. Of course, this being a major NPC and upcoming boss he manages to dig out of the situation and come up out the ground behind the heroes, but still. | |

Mortal Kombat: Sheeva's Nail Driver fatality involves her driving her defeated opponent to the ground with her four arms. Shao Kahn had this as a fatality in Mortal Kombat: Deception and the Nintendo 64 version of MK Trilogy using his own hammer. One of Superman's Heroic Brutality moves in Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe involve him hammering his enemy into the ground. Mortal Kombat 9 has Jax borrow Superman's Heroic Brutality, and then punt the victim's head off. |

Shadow of the Conqueror: After Lyrah smashes Daylen's face in and tries to arrest him, Ahrek sweeps her feet out from under her with his telekinetic powers and then slams her into the ground hard enough to create a crater. She crawls right out, but it provides enough time for Daylen to escape. Daylen later ends up on the receiving end of this when Lyrah hits him hard enough to plow him into the ground, leaving him to frantically pull himself out of it before the beatdown can resume. |

In one fight in a Nodwick comic, the titular character gets driven into the ground by a powerful attack and is buried up to his chin. He says that it's worse than it looks, as he struck bedrock after about a foot and he'd like to spit out his kneecaps now. | |

In George of the Jungle 2, Lyle's evil henchwomen Sally and Kowalski are trying to destroy the jungle with a bulldozer. Rocky the Kangaroo saves the day by kicking them across the jungle, into a clearing. As they struggle to get up, Rocky has an idea and jumps on their shoulders five times each, each jump making the women grunt and squeal in pain seeing their bodies disappear. Rocky leaves them knocked out and trapped with a pile of mud around them. It’s unknown what becomes of them. | |

In Elianto, at one point a bard from Neikos (a parallel medieval war plagued by Forever War between the coarse and manly Oroni and the fashionable but snobbish Argentoni) narrates a previous battle, with a list of gruesome killing: as he mentions, Pendolo the Dirty "hammered Quattrochio of Comacchio in the ground like a nail, and made a chamberpot out of his mouth, due to his impelling needs." | |

Super Mario Bros.: In Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Sunshine, if Mario falls from a great height into sand or snow, he'll get buried halfway and has to pull himself out. This is a recurring ability in the Mario & Luigi subseries, with one of the brothers pounding the other one into the ground so he can reach new areas and uncover buried items. In Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, this happens to Big Massif in the Dream World, when his apprentices boast how he could smash even the largest possible rock. Cue him trying to smash the rock with his first as it comes down, then being smashed on the head by it with a loud metal-like sound before getting driven into the ground. Of course, this being a major NPC and upcoming boss he manages to dig out of the situation and come up out the ground behind the heroes, but still. |

In BattleTech, the 90 ton Highlander was the heaviest mech that mounted jump jets when it was introduced, thus making it the heaviest mech capable of performing a Death from Above attack. It was quickly noted in-universe that when performed on a light mech, the unfortunate victim was often driven into the ground by the force of the impact, thus leading to it being known as a Highlander Burial. | |

He remains stuck for the remainder of the scene, until the team visits the royal quarters.

In Worms this is the result of being hit with a Battle Axe. It is also possible for worms to be smashed into the ground if they either fall straight down enough to take damage, or if they get hit with an explosive weapon from directly above - both cases are very rare, as even a slightest angle deviation will prevent the smashing. | |
