Alice is in a tight situation involving Bob. Maybe Bob wants money from her, or has a gun pointed at her head, or is just plain annoying. Alice points past Bob's shoulder and yells, "Hey, what's that over there?!?", or "Look! A [insert improbable thing here]!" Bob looks. Alice legs it. In the subversion, Bob doesn't look, but instead mocks Alice: "You'll think I'll fall for that?" or "That's the oldest trick in the book!" Unfortunately for Bob, deciding not to look drastically ramps up the probability that the thing Alice described is there, and it'll be something he's not going to like. A variant is for Alice to just look past Bob with a quizzical expression, or to duck herself — this latter being an almost certain guarantee of Bob mocking Alice and then getting brained by the oncoming low bridge. One of The Oldest Tricks in the Book; quite possibly the oldest, considering Real Life cases are recorded for monkeys. Telling the target their shoelace is untied or their fly is down are similar tricks, and are usually grouped with this one. Related to We Need a Distraction. Also in the process of becoming a Discredited Trope (if not an outright Dead Horse Trope). Note, however, that just the two last words ("Behind you") are pure Paranoia Fuel on their own. Compare Snap to the Side. If the method involved deliberately having them look somewhere just in time to be killed/heavily injured by something, see Death by Looking Up. See "No Peeking!" Request when a characters asks another to turn or not look while they're performing an action. Not to be confused with Look Around You, Right Behind Me, or what viewers yell at blinkered horror movie victims. Compare and contrast with Scared of What's Behind You. |

Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics) : In issue 27 of Sonic Universe, Silver the Hedgehog has found himself in yet another alternate Mobius, battling alongside that universe's Freedom Fighters against Enerjak, who has hammered Silver into the ground like a hammer, singlehandedly beat the entire team, and has the leader on the ropes. He's taunting her mercilessly then stops and asks "Why are you smiling?" Cue a psychically powered pillar of energy to erupt behind him and truly pissed off Silver ready and raring to go for next issue's Final Battle. Later, Honey The Cat uses this trick to defeat Tails in their match during the Tournament Arc. | |

Used in one of the first X-Wing Rogue Squadron comics. The agent Winter has found a pair of stranded New Republic pilots and doesn't know if they're who they claim they are, so trains a blaster on them. One of them tells her◊ that there's a local predator creeping up on her; she asks if they really think she'll fall for that, they set up for Stab the Scorpion - and she fires behind herself without looking. "I believe you.◊". | |

This Bites!: Cross pulls this twice in Little Garden to convince someone from Baroque Works that a T-rex is right behind them. The first time, it's Soundbite using his powers. The second, there really is one. Right before Cross is about to be cuffed, Soundbite begins sounding alarm bells, warning them that something dangerous is coming. Tashigi is skeptical... and then comes the Advancing Wall of Doom. |

The Muppet Show: In the Cleo Laine episode, Fozzie tells Kermit this when the latter is about to introduce Cleo's first number. Fozzie then pushes Kermit off stage when he looks, so he can introduce Cleo to impress his visiting mother. In the "Just in Time" sketch in the Cloris Leachman episode, Cloris shouts "Look! Up there! Quick!" when Sweetums starts threatening her. When he announces that he's not going to fall for that old gag, a coconut from the island's lone palm tree falls on his head. |

Played with throughout Bob and George, usually accompanied with the phrase "yoink." Parodied here. Bob and George also loves double-subverting this. Someone would try it. The other person wouldn't fall for it, but the first character would run off anyway. The image on the main page comes from when Proto Man pulled this one on Mynd. Before turning around, Mynd explained, "I know this is probably a trick, but I can't take the chance that it's not." Starting from very early in the strip. In the same sequence, again. A subtle version: Megaman asks about the bombs, which causes Bomb Man to look away to explain about the pile. |

Keychain of Creation: "It's the Kukla!". To explain the joke: The Kukla is a dragon the size of a mountain range, its appearance would be an apocalyptic event, and the idea that anyone needs to have it pointed out would be patently ridiculous, so the fact that the security team has fallen for it multiple times is just hilarious. | |

And let us not forget how Zeromus (the representation of Alex's hatred) was tricked into turning around three times. Naturally, the moment he finally catches on and refuses to look, the thing Bob and Alex are talking about (a naked Alanis Morisette, the representation of Alex's cynicism) actually is behind him. | |

Stampy's Lovely World: Stampy invokes this against William in Episode 450, "Fizzylympics", by telling him there was a zombie behind him, in order to distract him for long enough to knock him into the sea for the minigame they were playing. To be fair, there was a zombie behind him, just not close enough to pose a threat. Stampy lampshades this, naturally. | |

Hsu and Chan: Hsu attempts to gain the edge in a swordfight with lifelong rival Akira Yamamoto by resorting to this tactic. However, while Akira is distracted, Hsu laughs at him for falling for the ruse, missing the opportunity to strike and finding himself caught off guard instead. Played straight multiple times when confronted by obese nerds. The brothers commonly point behind the nerd and shout "Look, a gallon of pecan ripple" or "Look, a display of Princess Leia slave girl lingerie." This tactic hasn't failed yet. |

In the Kim Possible/Star Trek: The Next Generation crossover "Kim Possible: The Next Generation", the final confrontation sees Kim and Ron trying to stop Lore using the Pan-Dimensional Vortex Inducer to power a weapon that could destroy Earth. While Lore is literally crushing Kim's legs as she tries to disable the device, Ron attacks Lore from behind, and when Lore turns to look at him, Ron points out that he's just the "funny sidekick" to the "beautiful hero"; Lore turns back around to see that Kim has removed the PDVI and is pointing a phaser at him. | |

Discord points and shouts, "HIM!" Shocked, Leo lets go and turns around, as Discord's father Havoc is one of the most powerful beings in the universe and The Dreaded for a good reason. Havoc isn't there, then Discord hits him. Leo says he can't believe he fell for that. Makarov goes One-Winged Angel and proclaims himself a god. Shining Armor looks over his shoulder and tells him to look behind him. Makarov misinterprets him and thinks he's saying to look to the past, then boasts that he controls the past, present, and future. Shining says to physically look behind him. This time, he turns around, and comes face to face with The Blank Wolf. |

Ivelisse Vélez successfully stopped rival Power Stable VALkyrie from kidnapping her injured teammate La Rosa Negra at SHINE 33, but had to abandon her healthy teammate Amanda Carolina Rodriguez for a minute to do so, resulting in Las Sicarias failing to acquire the Tag Team Title belts. While VALkyrie were beating up Kimber Lee, half of the other Tag Title contenders, later in the night, Las Sicarias decided to rescue her and get revenge, starting with Negra poking VALkyrie muscle Andrea in the back before retreating as quickly as she could manage while Velez and ACR picked off more vulnerable members. | |

By the time he even turns around, he notices that the ice cream cone he prepared for Paige has far too many swirls (about 16, with some drooping over the cone). He also mentions that she did something similar the previous summer. | |

The Incredible Hulk: Used during a "inside Bruce Banner's brain" sequence, as the gray Hulk distracts the green Hulk by saying, "Look! It's Lou Ferrigno!" before locking that aspect of Banner's mind away again. Subverted in another issue of Hulk saw the eponymous hero facing down his arch nemesis The Leader, only for the villain to warn him, "Rock's heading your way." This of course is met with extreme skepticism by the Hulk, who doesn't turn, and is summarily skewered by The Rock, once of the Leader's henchmen wearing a powerful shapeshifting battlesuit. |

The web novel Through the Motions goes back and forth on this: a customer tries to get Deanna to look out the window as he tries to steal some gum. She recognizes it as an obvious trick and keeps an eye on him while the next customer in line, as well as one of her co-workers, takes the bait. It's only after the would-be thief leaves the store that she turns around and finds out that he wasn't lying: she sees the customer who left ahead of him using magic to protect herself from a heavy rainstorm. | |
