Shooting a person out of a cannon is done in Real Life as a stage act. In fiction, it's a practical way to travel long distances instantly. This is especially popular in video games. Fiction treats being shot out of a cannon in a very literal way. Cannons used for this purpose in Real Life are powered by a large spring or compressed air, but those in fiction use gunpowder, and are often set off by lighting a fuse.note Any explosions you might see in circus acts are just for show – using gunpowder to fire a living person becomes less like a human cannonball and more like human grapeshot. Their range is even longer than that of real artillery, often on the country-wide or even interplanetary scale. Expect the ballistic passenger to make a sudden stop by hitting a wall or a solid piece of ground (or water) at the other end. In some works, there will be no apparent effect of gravity on anyone in midflight, meaning their flight path will be a completely straight line from point A to B. The human cannonball is, of course, an old circus staple that still sees some use today in many performance acts. Obviously, no explosive propellant is used, so springs or compressed air is used to eject the human, with the housing still structured to look like a cannon to keep the idea of the trope alive. The targets are usually nets, air bags or bodies of water, but as noted on The Other Wiki, it still comes with its share of risks, specifically during the landing part of the act. May be done with a large medieval catapult in comical settings. See Fastball Special and Human Hammer-Throw for when the person is thrown by another character, not a cannon. |

In the Crosby/Hope comedy Road to Zanzibar one of the scams the duo run is a human-cannonball act; it turns out Hope's character hides in a secret compartment in the base of the cannon and it's a dummy that gets launched out. (And catches fire, and crashes into a tent, and causes an entire carnival to burn down.) | |

Toontown Online: In one case, this is used as a pun. After you beat the CEO, you get pink slips to fire enemy Cogs. By fire, of course, the game means fire from a cannon. In the battle against the Chief Justice, the second round involves firing NPC Toons into the jury using a cannon to ensure at least 8 out of 12 jury spots are filled with Toons instead of Cogs. |

Krusty the Clown in The Simpsons once shot his half-brother Luke Perry out of a cannon. The shot missed, sending Luke out of the studio, through a sandpaper factory and a display of half-price acid at the Kwik-E-Mart before he landed in a mattress warehouse. Which was then blown up. He also often shot Sideshow Bob out of a cannon, which contributed to Bob's hatred of him in "Krusty Gets Busted." (This later comes back to good use in "The Great Louse Detective", when Bob has to shoot himself out of the cannon on one Mardi Gras float in order to save Homer from getting Impaled with Extreme Prejudice in the swordfish museum.) | |

World of Warcraft: Not truly a cannon, but the Ultrasafe Personnel Launcher used by the gnomes in Steelgrill's Depot (and anyone allied with them, like your character) to get past the enemy and their base camp is the same idea. (Luckily, a parachute is provided when you use it, and the guy you report to assured the disorientation lasts only a minute or so.) A more straightforward example is the cannon in the Darkmoon Faire, which provides some magic wings that allow you to fall down slower. Of course, the point of the attraction is to get rid of the wings at the right time so you can land in a ring floating in the coast (the closest to the bullseye, the more points you get). If you unsummon the wings too late, you'll still land in the water. The problem comes if you do it too soon... |

Sonic Boom: In "Unlucky Knuckles", in an attempt to shift the luck balance of the universe (the idea given to him by Sticks), Knuckles fires himself out of a cannon at the bottom of a deep pit. In "Role Models", Knuckles launches Tails out of a cannon and Tails lands in a trash can. Before Knuckles can do the same with Amy, he is stopped by D.B. Platypus. When Sonic protests against D.B. calling him and his friends bad role models, he hits the cannon, launching Amy into a tree. |

Mario Party 4: One of the 1 Vs. 3 mini-games is "Hide and Go Boom". Each of the three team players must choose one of four cannons to hide in (indicated by the controller buttons), while the single player is given three torches to light them. If the single player manages to shoot all three team players out of the cannons, then it wins, but if at least one team player is still in a cannon when the three torches are used up, then the team wins. | |

While they fly, they have to hit the aerial targets to earn points (the numbers they show will indicate their worth), but they must also dodge the Bowser targets to avoid losing all points. Whoever gets the most points after they land onto the ground wins, though more than one can win in case they share the same high score. | |

Super Mario Bros.: Super Mario World: Certain levels feature diagonal pipes from which Mario and Luigi can launch by entering a nearby vertical pipe. Super Mario 64: Several levels feature cannons from which Mario can launch to reach high or distant spots. However, using them requires prior permission from a Bob-omb Buddy, for which you have to find him and talk to him (and in Bob-omb Battlefield, you must also have defeated King Bob-omb). Super Mario Sunshine: Delfino Plaza features a giant cannon that launches you to Pinna Park. A similar cannon can be found in the second mission of Pinna Park itself, but entering it will take you to a special obstacle course instead. Super Mario Galaxy: Square-shaped cannons can be used by Mario (as well as Luigi in the New Game Plus) to launch onto distant spots. Gravity is never a problem here, so it's always a straight trajectory. New Super Mario Bros.: In all games of the subseries minus the fourth (which also excludes its Luigi-based Mission-Pack Sequel), cannons are used as a Warp Zone to later worlds. You have to unlock them by reaching secret exits in nearby levels. Mario Kart has many tracks, often those based on the Donkey Kong Country series, where you and your vehicle get launched out of a cannon with tremendous speed. These are, namely, DK Mountain from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, Waluigi Pinball in Mario Kart DS, and DK Pass and Maple Treeway in Mario Kart Wii (DK Mountain from Double Dash!! is featured here as well). Mario Party: In Wario's Battle Canyon, launching oneself from one of the cannons is the only method of transport between areas, since these are disconnected otherwise. Mario Party 4: One of the 1 Vs. 3 mini-games is "Hide and Go Boom". Each of the three team players must choose one of four cannons to hide in (indicated by the controller buttons), while the single player is given three torches to light them. If the single player manages to shoot all three team players out of the cannons, then it wins, but if at least one team player is still in a cannon when the three torches are used up, then the team wins. Mario Party 7: The minigame Target Tag has each player enter a cannon and get launched airborne. While they fly, they have to hit the aerial targets to earn points (the numbers they show will indicate their worth), but they must also dodge the Bowser targets to avoid losing all points. Whoever gets the most points after they land onto the ground wins, though more than one can win in case they share the same high score. Mario Party: Island Tour: The aptly-named minigame Cannonball! has the four players crank their respective cannon's handles as quickly as possible during four seconds. They then hop onto the cannons to be shot. The faster they cranked the handles, the farther will they be shot. The player who lands onto the farthest spot wins. Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door has a giant Bob-Omb-powered cannon that is used to launch Mario to the moon. In Paper Mario: The Origami King, Mario can get blown out of a cannon if he answers incorrectly in the Sudden Death question in the Shy Guys Finish Last quiz show. However, since the show takes place on a Floating Continent, Mario gets blown through the roof straight into a Non-Standard Game Over. |

In Sonic Rush Adventure, the Ghost Titan, who is the boss of Big Swell, is in the air, out of Sonic's reach. On the platform Sonic is on, there are cannons protected by force fields. Sonic has to use the Ghost Titan's projectiles to destroy these force fields, since any contact with these force fields will damage him. Once the force fields are gone, these cannons will shoot at Sonic. He then needs to hit the cannon enough times so that he can enter it and use it to launch himself at the Ghost Titan to damage it. | |

Jules Verne's From the Earth to the Moon, although the characters at least use a vehicle there. While Verne's calculations are surprisingly close to the truth considering the lack of data at his time, in Real Life the resulting G-forces (around 22000 g) would have crushed the vehicle and its passengers. | |

Sonic the Hedgehog cartoons: In the opening credits of Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, Coconuts attempts to shoot Grounder out of a cannon at Sonic. He tugs so hard on the detonator, that it thrusts Grounder into the direction of him and Scratch and explodes. Sonic Boom: In "Unlucky Knuckles", in an attempt to shift the luck balance of the universe (the idea given to him by Sticks), Knuckles fires himself out of a cannon at the bottom of a deep pit. In "Role Models", Knuckles launches Tails out of a cannon and Tails lands in a trash can. Before Knuckles can do the same with Amy, he is stopped by D.B. Platypus. When Sonic protests against D.B. calling him and his friends bad role models, he hits the cannon, launching Amy into a tree. |

Henry Stickmin Series: A FAIL in Diamond involves Henry trying to use a cannon to launch himself past a pair of guards. He falls out, tries to get back in, and winds up crashing into the door when it fires. Henry can also try this in the Thief/Ghost route of Mission, to cross a gap. The cannon instead just blows him up. In the Government/Allies route of Mission, Charles's helicopter has a cannon designed to fire humans, which Henry and Ellie use to get inside the rocket, being shot through the rocket cafeteria's window. |

At the end of the episode, Sanosuke picks up the cannon and uses it as shoulder-mounted artillery to fire her at the Villain of the Week. The gunpowder question is handwaved by saying that the circus owner had a special, proprietary mix of powder that was just strong enough to launch the girl without risking injury. | |

In Terramex, you need to do this to cross a lake. By the time you reach the cannon, you will have collected three kegs of gunpowder of varying sizes. Use too much gunpowder and you will end up smashing yourself against a mountain, too little and you will fall into the lake. Choose wisely. It's the medium sized keg. | |

In episode 3 of Happy Heroes, Big M. and Little M. steal a cannon from a circus act and attempt to use it to launch themselves back to their home planet. As with all of their attempts to get back home, the plan doesn't work. | |

In Fractured (SovereignGFC), a Mass Effect/Star Wars/Borderlands crossover, Lilith is placed in a canister and blasted out of a magnetic railgun. In a nod to what would normally happen in such situations, it's handwaved by saying the gun fired at "minimum power." Plus, she's a Siren, so her physiology is more robust. | |
