Falling between the Neck Lift and Metronomic Man Mashing in terms of forcefulness (and physical improbability), the Minion Maracas occurs when someone lifts someone else and shakes them in mid-air, whether for emphasis or from an excess of emotion. Generally applied only in animation and comedic works, due to issues of leverage. The sound of a cowbell is optional. If the shaking has the pragmatic reason of letting loose something hidden in the subject's clothes, that's Shake Someone, Objects Fall. |

Narbonic: Dave lifts Human Artie off the ground in joy, freaking him out. In the earlier story, "Professor Madblood and the Doppelganger Gambit", Artie, who has been turned into a copy of Dave, shakes Mell. Then he notes how cathartic this felt. |

Redwall: At one point, Captain Plugg of the book Triss picks up two crewbeasts who've done something stupid and actually bangs their heads together. In the original Redwall book, Cluny the Scourge does the same to two of his lieutenants whose foraging expedition failed pretty miserably. Slightly unusual for this trope, in that Cluny is explicitly shown to be considerably larger and stronger than his subordinates, so the feat of strength is not so surprising. |

In the Discworld novel Guards! Guards!, after finding out that Sybil is in danger, Vimes picks up the Librarian and shakes him — asking him where they took her. The Librarian helpfully points him in the right direction, while quietly musing about the strong emotions it would take for a man to pick up and shake a 300-lb orangutan without even realizing. | |

The Legend of Zelda: The Happy Mask Salesman in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask starts furiously shaking Link around upon learning that Link failed to recover the titular mask. Linebeck in The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass does this to Link as well near the beginning, leaving the poor kid too dazed to stand-up straight after giving him a key. The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks begins with Alfonzo picking up a half-asleep Link and shaking him awake. |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: During the first dream of "Bloom & Gloom", upon noticing her brand-new cutie mark, Apple Bloom excitedly shakes Applejack fast enough that her head becomes a blur while making a ringing sound. In "Sparkle's Seven", upon finding that the Canterlot juice bar is closed in the day, Rarity (in full Shadow Spade mode) grabs the helpful stallion that informed her by the lapels and shakes him while wanting to know about the secret palace entrance. "Frenemies": During the Villain Song, after Chrysalis sends Tirek tumbling down a flight of stairs, the centaur grabs an annoying Cozy Glow, sings "For all this pain and torture, I swear you'll pay!"... and then he shakes the filly forcefully enough for her tongue to hang out. "A Trivial Pursuit": When Twilight explains to Spike that Pinkie Pie's involvement in the Trivia Trot game is throwing off all of her calculation, she grabs the dragon in her hooves and shakes him vigorously. |

Asterix: Obelix briefly but cheerfully takes to this move in Asterix the Gladiator: He also uses this as an interrogation method on a Gaul who sold Asterix to the Romans, in Asterix and the Banquet. Toward the end of Obelix and Co., Julius Caesar angrily shakes Caius Preposterus harder and harder while explaining to him that his schemes have nearly ruined Rome and that he now needs to clean up his own mess. Obelix does it again to an uncooperative merchant in Asterix and the Magic Carpet. In Asterix and the Missing Scroll, Libellus Blockbustus is a choleric little man who's in the habit of doing this to his servants. Including with a mute scribe, while ordering him to talk (he has to be reminded twice that the scribe can't). |
