Slapstick is the essence of physical comedy — people getting hurt or embarrassed in hilarious ways (e.g. slipping and landing face first in dog crap). The defining feature of slapstick is its highly exaggerated nature, combined with a lack of serious physical consequences. The Pratfall is a staple of slapstick humor. The name comes from a prop in the Commedia dell'Arte: the battacchio, or "Slap Stick", is two pieces of wood that sound more like punching than punching does, without causing any physical damage; making this Older Than Steam. It has been a staple of Vaudeville and Burlesque; and a consistent thread in many types of comedy, most notably the Farce. Exemplified in the modern era by artists like Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, and Laurel and Hardy; and continued by recent performers such as the British comedy team of Rik Mayall and Ade Edmonson, and Canadian actor Jim Carrey. While slapstick is present to some degree in many comedic works, examples should be works that depend entirely or predominantly on this form of exaggerated physical comedy for their humour. An interesting bit of neurological trivia: finding slapstick funny is very deeply seated in the brain. A study was done of patients who had previously sustained head trauma who were shown comedy clips of varying types. It was found that while many had lost the capacity to "get" puns and higher humor, almost all still found slapstick funny. So while some people still complain that a show like America's Funniest Home Videos where people repeatedly fall and get hit in the crotch is not amusing, it's not really surprising that the show still continues to be popular across all demographics for well over 20 years even in the face of the infinite spring of funny home videos that are modern social networks.

Das Sporking (Blog) | |
Slapstick / int_10b7b1 | comment |
On Das Sporking, female sporkers are just as likely as male ones to take Amusing Injuries. Mervin, Hyde, and Ket are the most prominent — Mervin and Hyde smack each other up, and Mervin and Ket tend to get into brawls with occasional co-sporker Agent Sands. | |

Slapstick / int_116a648e | comment |
In Book 2, the royal children Desna and Eska are not usually played for laughs (except rather darkly, by dishing out abuse to others), but in the one scene where it does happen, Eska suffers it no less than her brother Desna. | |

Comedic Sociopathy | |
Slapstick / int_4a4d6f7c | comment |
The Comedic Sociopathy of Ranma ½ is, in large part, defined by the sheer amount of physical punishment the characters can withstand. And almost all of it would be a lot harder to stomach if not for the fact that the majority of them are selfish and petty jerks who, more often than not, have it coming. | |

While Heloise was rarely a victim of Amusing Injuries in Season 1 of Jimmy Two-Shoes (where she was instead usually dishing them out), she suffers more in Season 2 than just about any other character (except Samy).

Misty is subject to slapstick from time to time. One noticeable example was in "Pokémon Fashion Flash."

Surreal Humor | |
Slapstick / int_87d7e9fa | comment |
The series is generally devoid of slapstick, having a subject matter that leans more towards seriousness, with the occasional comic relief being more surreal in nature. However, Wind Waker uses slapstick generously, which goes well with its cartoony aesthetic. At one point, a group of pirates attempt to sneak Link into the Big Bad 's compound via catapult. It goes about as well as you'd expect, with Link smashing against a wall and losing his sword. This Link in particular is very prone to falling and getting in all sorts of funny accidents. | |

Given that the series averts Men Are the Expendable Gender and is an example of Gender Is No Object, it's little surprise Drowtales features slapstick, especially in the end of chapter chibi parodies, where female characters are just as (if not more) likely to be on the receiving end of slapstick violence as male characters. | |

Nicole, the mother character, despite being less prone to getting herself in slapstick situations through idiocy and more capable of getting out of them unharmed do to being an Action Mom, does still get hit with slapstick on occasion. Usually do to her family's antics. Including the very first episode, "The DVD", when she faceplants into the ground pretty hard and later smashes into a brick wall, while chasing her sons, Gumball and Darwin across the neighborhood. She also gets a black eye in "The Vase" after an accident, gets launched off a an esculater and pulled up into the air into a pretty nasty (offfscreen hit in the head), among other more minor frustrations in "The Mothers", and gets her legs pinned under a steel beam in "The Worst". | |

Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male | |
Slapstick / int_c0e3994b | comment |
Lucy Van Pelt frequently bullies her brother or even outright punches him for laughs, but Linus hardly ever got to get back at his sister, except for the rare times when he decided he wasn't going to take her crap anymore, and angrily told her off. The one time Lucy was shown with Amusing Injuries, it was only because she'd fallen down while roller-skating. The one exception where Lucy was actually on the receiving end of a debatably unamusing injury is when, during an early Halloween strip, she made a snide remark about the similarity between Charlie Brown's head and a pumpkin he was carving at the time. At first, Charlie laughs, making it look like he thought that her remark actually was pretty funny, even chuckling a bit. Then the final panel shows a loopy-looking Lucy with the remains of the pumpkin that Charlie Brown SMASHED OVER HER HEAD! If Lucy ever had a justifiable reason for all the crap she does to Charlie Brown in future strips, that would do it. | |

The Duel Coaster had a hazard where a boxing glove would spring out and sock the duelist in the face causing 200 points of Effect Damage; Yuma would be hit with it several times during the ride (given his inability to steer straight), but in one of those times, the glove missed him and hit Kotori. (Despite this, it still deducted points from Yuma.) | |
