Knuckle Cracking happens when a character cracks their knuckles to show that they are ready to deal out a whuppin' or tackle a challenge. Frequently used as an intimidation tactic in fights, this is a particularly effective way of showing that The Stoic is bothered enough by someone to get serious. Cracking knuckles may also be sign that a character is ready to get to work on a particularly arduous task, especially one that requires a lot of muscle. Comes in two varieties: raising one's hands and proceeding to use hand A to fold the fingers of hand B in towards hand B's palm, and then immediately using hand B to do the same with hand A. Another kind involves cracking both hands at once by lacing the fingers together a la Finger-Tenting and bending them away from the palms, pushing one's hands either down towards the ground, forward away from your chest, or some angle in between, such that one's arms take on a wishbone shape. A less common variant, sometimes seen in martial arts films, involves cracking the knuckles one-handed by slowly and dramatically clenching one's hand into a fist. Sometimes the knuckle cracking sound is removed, maybe for the sake of realism, maybe because some people find it too squicky and then it will be replaced by the hero crushing something in their hand. Bonus points if it's made out of metal, points removed if it's only a paper note. Sometimes other joints are cracked as well, most often in the neck. Cracking joints in the shoulders or back provides a convenient excuse to flex your muscles and show off your powerful physique. Another reason for this is to flex the muscles, loosen the joints, and open the blood vessels which helps to improve blood-flow and reduce the strain and potential damage from overexerting a stiff body part. A Sub-Trope of Kinetic Clicking. Compare and contrast with *Crack!* "Oh, My Back!", in which a character's joints crack painfully, often to show that they are aging or have an injury. |

Tokugawa Ieyasu from Sengoku Basara dramatically cracks his knuckles before his Basara attack, appropriate since he's a fist fighter. Kuroda Kanbe also cracks his neck during his taunt, complaining that he "needs a break". | |

Another example of "character who has no bones and is therefore invincible but shows being invincible by cracking his neck despite having no bones after being beaten up" is in Ultimate Avengers 2, when the alien Nazi shapeshifter (who is kind of a colony of slugs) does this after falling from a great height. | |

Ranma ½: In his introduction story in the anime, Ry�ga crushes several walnuts to dust with his fist, vowing to make Ranma pay for something or other. In the manga, he crushes a single walnut... between index and thumb. Effortlessly. Since Ry�ga constantly does things like lifting immense boulders and smashing walls by banging his head against them in frustration, this isn't surprising Ranma is pretty fond of the "cracking knuckles and popping joints to show he's getting serious" version, and much like Inu-Yasha he favors the "cracking fingerjoints with an open fist" method. Also, in at least the anime version of Hinako's arrival, he effortlessly bends a yen coin completely in half after taking it from her. Between thumb and forefinger. |

An old standard of Kung Fu movies is to have a group from a rival school (often Japanese) come in and start disrespecting the Hero's school and his recently deceased master, maybe making a pass at his girlfriend. Fist of Fury, which uses the Chin Woo school as a basis, has a scene where this occurs and we get Lee standing there, taking the insults but with a knuckle crack to show how angry he is getting and to step up the tension. | |

Total Drama: Owen is the last one to jump the 1.000-foot cliff in "Not So Happy Campers -- Part 2". If he jumps, his team wins, so scared as Owen is he resolves to do it. He prepares a run-up, cracks his knuckles by tightening his hands into fists, screams, and goes for it. As Izzy and Chef Hatchet prepare to fight in "Hide and Be Sneaky", first Chef cracks his knuckles merely by making a fist, then Izzy does the same and one-ups Chef by cracking her neck while she's at it. One of the things Beth has to say about Brady in "Masters of Disasters" is that he has a habit of cracking his knuckles. She acknowledges that most people find it gross, but she finds it adorable when he does it. |

In The Dark Knight, when the Joker is captured, and taunting the cop assigned to watch him, he finally gets a rise out of the guard, who tells him "I know you're gonna enjoy this. I'm just gonna have to enjoy it even more." The Joker's only response is to stoically crack his neck. | |

Spoofed in Dragon Ball Z Abridged. Piccolo cracks his neck with a very satisfying sound which inspires Krillin to do the same. The result is a meaty crunch and him screaming in pain. And adding another notch on the Krillin Owned counter. He's still screaming later once Frieza enters his third form. | |

Mortal Kombat Subverted with some random mook in the first movie, right before he promptly got owned by Sub-Zero. Played straight in Mortal Kombat: Annihilation. Perhaps a little too straight. Shao Kahn must have a really bad neck, because he barely moves his head and it still cracks. |

In the X-Men Film Series, it appears a side effect of mutant healing factors is mutant joint-cracking, with Wolverine and Lady Deathstrike really going at this trope for all it's worth. Deathstrike really crunches those fingers of hers. Of course, they don't have to worry about arthritis. Justified in Deathstrike's case, since her claws are inside her fingers. They need to be kept loose, and are probably sore quite often. Bonus points for adding a metal clanking noise when they crack their knuckles, hinting at their adamantium skeletons. | |

Shepard invokes this trope in Mass Effect a lot, usually as warm up in order to extract information from a hesitant informant. Unsurprisingly, if you understand anything about Shepard, it works. One volus was savvy enough that all she\he had to do was crack knuckles to comply. Joker does this also quite a few times, most often when he's about to make Normandy dance. Which is strange, seeing how he could break his fingers quite easily... |

Teen Titans: As for neck cracking, Starfire does one badass neck cracking in "Go", where you really see what an upbringing by a warrior race will do for you when you're scared and in a strange place having just escaped being a war prize and implied sex slave. Scary. A more humorous, yet still serious example occurs near the end of "Only Human." This time, it's Cyborg's turn for a double neck crack, but since half of his head is robotic, the second crack is actually a mechanical whine. |

Uncle Andrew does this in The Magician's Nephew, when he's cornered the children in his attic room. Interestingly, he doesn't show any inclination to start a (physical) fight; the cracking seems to have been designed to make him more intimidating (and generally creepy). | |

True Potential: In the omake from Chapter 55, Kiba makes fun of Sasuke by pointing out that the latter's haircut looks like a duck's butt. Upon hearing that, Sakura narrows her eyes towards Kiba and walks closer to him while cracking her knuckles before hurting him in a way that he makes a loud howl of pain that various animals could hear from afar. In the omake from Chapter 62, Kanji asks why the word 'kunoichi' is a thing. Tenten makes a passionate speech about why that word is a thing and how proud she is to wear that title. However, while grinning, Kanji asks why not using the other word, which is she-nobi. Tenten is in disbelief that he asked that question just to make that pun. Soon after, she has some killing intent towards the boy, approaches him slowly, and cracks her knuckles before asking in a soft voice if he thinks everything she just said was a joke. The next paragraph indicates that Kanji now has a comically-large bump on his head that causes him pain. Anko does this three times in Chapter 72: The first time is when she warns Naruto and Fū not to pull any prank on her or else they'll regret it. The second time is before she manages to scare two civilians who were negatively talking about Fū. The third time is before she does some one-on-one sparring with Fū. In Chapter 76, Anko does this again when Shibuki asks her to help him get answers from Zagi Kariudo, who helped the Akatsuki invade Taki. During a mission in Shimo, Sasuke cracks his knuckles while expressing some eagerness to fight Naruto once they both return to Konoha. During the ROOT arc, when Jiraiya asks if brute force would work against the wall preventing him and his group from pursuing Danz�, Tsunade walks towards the wall while cracking her knuckles, only stopping when Hiruzen says that he doesn't recall any case where brute force would work and that Tobirama designed the wall to be as impenetrable as possible. |
