The Plumber Crack gag is a classic comedy staple. It is a situation in which a plumber or other blue-collar worker of similar ilk (in British English it is more often called a "builder's bum") bends to do some task and exposes their butt crack in the process to onlookers. Common stereotypes of the Blue-Collar worker are their apparent lack of hygiene and personal fitness. Keeping in mind the principle of Show, Don't Tell, the (usually) overweight and hirsute character bends down to take a look at something, and their pants fall or get pulled below their waistline. The Reaction Shot of the other characters is typically Played for Laughs. They might even use the opportunity to give a wedgie. Characters are often far more disgusted by the sight than similarly being "mooned". Compare Wardrobe Malfunction and Mooning. |

A The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air episode once opened with a scene of Uncle Phil trying to fix a sink. He defies the trope because he's wearing higher jeans with a belt but it doesn't stop Will making jokes. | |

This is parodied in French sketch comedy show Vous Les Femmes. The plumber called out to fix the sink in Olivia Cotê's kitchen is wearing dissappointingly covering trousers that avert this. But Olivia fancies him. To make this clear, she crouches down next to him on the pretence she wants to see the problem for herself. Sure enough, the back of her jeans gapes and she is wearing the skimpiest possible thong. The plumber makes his excuses and leaves. | |

The Simpsons: Marge once became a carpenter but nobody would hire a woman to do that kind of job. As she commented to Homer that it seemed people expected carpenters to be overweight people with visible buttcracks, she immediately thought about using Homer as a facade. | |

The third episode of Yo-kai Watch features a gag where Kanchi note named Eddie in the English dub is crouched down◊ with his entire butt crack showing. This was notoriously censored in the English dub (which aired on Disney XD) by covering the crack with his white underpants.◊ Interestingly, Kumanote named Bear in the English dub still points out that Kanchi's butt is exposed, that—while true—doesn't give off the same effect. | |

Rocko's Modern Life: In the episode "Canned," Rocko takes on a new job as a plumber's assistant. He is dismayed, however, to find out that his sole responsibility is to pull up the plumber's pants whenever they fall over due to his position. This gag also appears with the plumber who appears in "Pipe Dreams" to fix Rocko's clogged toilet. In "Seat to Stardom", Rocko, Filburt, and Heffer are part of a crowd waiting to get an autograph from Really Really Big Man and other celebrities, but they're stuck in the back. All Heffer can see is the back of a bunch of heads, all Rocko can see is a forest of ankles, and as for Filburt... |

Discussed in-depth on Designing Women with the ladies noting that many of the plumbers and construction workers they deal with all suffer from the same problem, with one recurring maintenance man named Rusty revealing his repeatedly through the show. At one point, a recurring character named Vanessa that feels self-conscious about not being as cultured or book-smart as the other ladies, reveals her street smarts when the ladies are discussing how seemingly every handyman in America suffers the same problem and nobody knows why, only for Vanessa to reveal she knows why... their toolbelts weigh their pants down. | |

Taskmaster has some notable examples: During Mel's choreography of a ringtone dance in "Friendship is Truth," this happens to Alex as he and Mel are depicted dancing in a back alley, and it is captured by the overhead camera. In the studio replay, Noel comments that he's imagining a miniature Mel and Alex also dancing in Alex's "back alley." Nish's buttcrack pops out when he is getting Alex to shore "as elegantly as possible" in "Dignity Intact." Alex shields him from the camera with his notepad. |

Parodied in the B-plot of the Hannah Montana episode "Mascot Love". Robby and Jackson are trying to fix the garbage disposal/sink in the kitchen which leads to Robby betting $50 that Jackson couldn't do it on his own. When alone, Jackson pauses and says to himself that if he's going to be acting like a plumber then he should look the part, so he steps back and pulls down the back of his jeans to show off his underwear, and carries on. Played straight later in the episode when a plumber comes by to fix the sink after Jackson's attempts end up backfiring, with both Jackson and Robby pointing it out. | |

A downplayed running gag for Adam on Friday Night Dinner. He never wears a belt and whenever he bends over, his boxers are exposed. It often comes to an advantage for others whenever they are angry with him; his uncle once drags him across the floor by his trouser legs and taunts him about his underwear showing. There was also an entire episode with a running gag of Johnny giving Adam a wedgie whenever Adam bent over and his jeans sagged down. | |

Two downplayed examples appear in the second Alvin and the Chipmunks movie. When Alvin is being chased by jocks, he diverts them to a bench, making them assume that he is hiding under it. The boys frantically bend over and search around it, exposing both their white underpants as their jeans rode down, and Alvin jumps off a bannister nearby and gives them both wedgies. A few seconds later, the two jocks are seen limping after (where they assume is) Alvin's direction, implying that Alvin does not know his own strength if he could wedgie two humans to the point of making them walk funny (remember, he and his brothers were the size of a human's foot). | |

Ed, Edd n Eddy: A subverted version used as a Take Our Word for It gag in "One of Those Eds", when the neighbourhood kids are trying to remove a quarter that's stuck on the sidewalk. Eddy loudly declares that he can see Sarah's underwear as she is hunched over the coin and trying to pull at it with her teeth. The viewer is left in the dark about whether Eddy was telling the truth because Sarah is facing the "camera" as she is attempting to win the challenge. The rest of the children waiting with him laugh as if Eddy had pointed out what they were all thinking, making Sarah stomp away in red-faced embarrassment, but they were as competitive as Eddy so they could've easily been lying as well. Ed and Edd's were out after Kevin hung both of them by their underwear in "Brother Can You Spare An Ed". |

Deck the Halls uses a subversion this trope as an Establishing Character Moment for the chief of police. Steve goes to report Buddy to the police for one of his tit-for-tat crimes. The police chief is revealed to be a Wholesome Crossdresser when he crouches in front of a cabinet to pick up fresh police files, exposing his pink thong. Steve runs out of the building awkwardly. | |

Ryan George: "When People Assume Stuff About Your Dog" starts with someone informing a plumber he could see his butt crack the entire time he was fixing the dishwasher, with the plumber assuring him it was a little bonus they like to offer their customers. | |

A similar effect (played for drama) is used in an episode of How I Met Your Mother. After Ted wakes up from a memory-wiping hangover, his friends notice a sudden tattoo on his lower back near his underwear waistband when his shirt slides up his body as he reaches to a kitchen shelf above his head. | |
