Our heroic protagonist, Joe Average, is a very Heavy Sleeper. His friends joke he could sleep through an atomic bomb blast. In fact, he just did. Thanks to an extraordinary coincidence, Joe was in one of the only (if not the only) safe places from The End of the World as We Know It. Joe will usually wake up and find himself very, very alone, and get increasingly freaked out. That is until night falls and he's relieved to find someone who is Not a Zombie Mutant, and won't try to bash his head open to eat his delicious brain meats, honest! Luckily for Joe, this is when a savvier survivor will bail him out and lead him towards more safety. There's a lot of ways for Joe and/or Jane to miss the opening act of The End of the World as We Know It without realizing it. The threat itself may be a localized one like a Zombie Apocalypse, and being out in the countryside where there's no cell reception is one way to survive without becoming the wiser. Or they may be naturally immune or in a place where whatever 'it' is can't affect them. A Human Popsicle may thaw to find the world After the End isn't all he expected. And of course, a Heavy Sleeper may be clueless and lucky enough not to realize it's happening until he's knee deep in radioactive weevils. If the story is a comedy or a horror story being played for laughs, Joe may be killed off pretty quickly without even realizing he was Late to the Tragedy. Otherwise, he'll have a pretty good survival rate as he taps into his inner Action Survivor. Frequently overlaps with Rip Van Winkle, where the future reality the protagonist finds himself waking up in is strange but not apocalyptic per se. Compare But What About the Astronauts? when someone survived because they were offplanet. |

The first two Planet of the Apes movies combine this with Time Dilation. The ships' crews are meant to spend time in suspended animation, but end up spending longer than they expected. Of course, it's not until the end of the first movie that the hero realizes he's in this trope. | |

Subverted in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Link slept for a hundred years while Ganon essentially destroyed his world, but flashbacks reveal he was at ground zero from the get-go, fighting with all his strength to protect Zelda and the kingdom. He was only put to cryogenic sleep to recover when his injuries became lethal, which happened after everything went to hell. | |

Another episode featured the whole family falling asleep in church and showing all their dreams. When they all wake up in a now empty church, they're embarrassed, but Homer says "Ah, it's not the end of the world". Then he opens the door and finds out it is. |

Antoine Daniel's reason for his lack of new videos in three months is explained in episode #35 of What the Cut. Shortly after he posted episode #34, Space Pirates invaded every town and city on Earth, causing mass migrations and riots. Earth nations united against the pirates and reached a stalemate, until a second alien invader showed up, camels from Pluto. Earth and the pirates were forced to unite against the camels. In the end, the conflict was settled with a game of Rock–Paper–Scissors. And during all this time, Antoine was getting drunk in a pub, unaware of anything, and thinking only three days had passed. | |

You might say this of Gordon Freeman in Half-Life 2. After Gordon was placed in suspended animation by the G-Man at the end of the previous game, the sequel begins a couple of decades in the future, during which time the Earth had been subjugated by the Combine. The G-Man awakens Gordon and apparently strategically places him in City 17, leading the events of the game. | |

Happens to Kirby again, although with an event with less stakes, in Kirby Star Allies. This time, he sleeps through the Jamba Heart pieces raining down all over Popstar and turning several people, such as Whispy Woods, King Dedede and Meta Knight, evil. |

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Apparently what happened in the original ending. One episode everything is fine, the next one starts with Shinji already in Limbo. This is what happens when you run out of budget. The third Rebuild movie has a straighter example. The planet is in ruins and most of humanity has been killed off, and Shinji spends a total of fourteen years in non-aging stasis inside of a giant dormant mecha while this all happens. What makes it worse this time around, is that one of the first things Shinji finds out after he wakes up is that not only did he sleep through it (in what was probably the safest place on Earth for that entire time), but his actions in the previous movie are also what caused it. |

The Twilight Zone (1959): In "Time Enough at Last", Henry Bemis goes into the bank vault to have his lunch and read, which protects him from the nuclear blast that kills everyone else. He is knocked out by the force and eventually awakens to find the world destroyed. Subverted in "One More Pallbearer". In the final scene, Paul Radin discovers that a nuclear war has devastated the world while he was in his bomb shelter attempting to fool Mrs. Langsford, Reverend Hughes and Colonel Hawthorne that such a war was beginning. However, it turns out that this is nothing but Radin's fantasy, his mind having been broken. |

Resident Evil: Resident Evil 2: Leon oversleeps at a motel before making his way to Raccoon City. Considering what was happening there, that was probably the luckiest thing that ever happened to him. Resident Evil 3 (Remake): Taking into account the established timeline of the Raccoon City outbreak, Jill seems to have done just this, albeit aided by the sleeping pills by her bed. |

In The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, the Dawnguard expansion has the vampire, Serana. Being trapped in an underground shrine for at least two thousand years, she slept through the corruption of the Falmer, the extinction of the Dwemer, the transformations of the Chimer and Orsimer, the Thrassian Plague, the founding of the Cyrodiilic empire, the Planemeld, the shattering of the Staff of Chaos, the Warp in the West, the unbinding of the Heart of Lorkhan, the Oblivion Crisis, the eruption of Red Mountain, and the Great War against the Aldmeri Dominion which resulted in the banning of Talos worship. She wakes up in the middle of the Skyrim Civil War and the Dragon Crisis. Depending on your actions, she could have also slept through the Eye of Magnus almost destroying reality, the aforementioned Dragon Crisis, and the return of Miraak. | |

Evolution: One of the stories deals with a group of soldiers who were in suspended animation waking up hundreds of thousands of years after the human civilization collapsed, they encounter the precursors of raptor-like rodents and a group of feral humans. In one of the vignettes by Stephen Baxter, a hibernating "dragon's teeth" team (intended to set up resistance cells years or decades after an invading force conquers the land) never gets relieved; the survivors wake up millennia After the End and find nothing left of civilization but feral humans, heavily eroded roads and some odd-looking, grass-covered hills. |

Harda Horda anthology contains two examples: Anywhere But the Head, where the main character is an overmedicated hikikomori who realises she missed an outbreak of a Zombie Apocalypse somewhere between her next dose of anti-depressants, sleeping pills and neuroleptics. The story is a Black Comedy, and openly toys with the concept that it might as well be all Through the Eyes of Madness - it isn't, but it's still a Cosy Catastrophe, as beyond the outbreak, she also slept through the evacuation. Fiery Tail has a fraction of humanity packed into Space Arks to survive a swarm of asteroids hitting Earth, with almost all of the survivors put into a stasis to make it more manageable in the limited space of their ships. And then spend unspeficified time in cryosleep, waiting for the Earth's ecosystem to recover and become habitable once more. |

The Langoliers: A minor character falls asleep before the airplane flies through a Negative Space Wedgie, and he doesn't wake up until the entire adventure is over and the airplane is flying home. As a possible subtle meta-joke, the way the heavy sleeper is described could fit author Stephen King himself. And only characters who are asleep when passing through said Wedgie remain on the plane; anyone awake goes Somewhere Else, leaving behind any inorganic matter they had on (or in) them. |

German tragicomedy Goodbye Lenin involves the story of Alex, a disillusioned young East German who attends a democratic rally. His mother Christine, a staunch party member and decorated school teacher, suffers a stroke as she sees Stasi officers beat and arrest him. She suffers an 8-month coma during which the USSR withdraws from East Germany and eventually both countries reunite. Alex must maintain the illusion that her beloved communist world still exists, as should she realize her world has ended (replaced with corporate advertisements, destruction of Marxist monuments, her life savings made obsolete, and a horde of West German "Refugees" bringing the sins of the decadent west) she could not survive the shock. | |

In God of War Ragnarök, a post-game sidequest reveals that the real Tyr, not the one that was actually just Odin impersonating Tyr, is still alive and locked up in a prison in Niflheim. By the time Kratos frees him, Ragnarok has already happened and he's somewhat dismayed that he couldn't be there to help. It's also implied that he's also missed out on the destruction of the Greek Pantheons since he doesn't recognize Kratos. | |

Super Mario Bros.: Super Paper Mario: Squirps was placed in hibernation to meet the heroes and prevent the apocalypse, yet it also meant that he slept through the end of his own kingdom. There's nothing left of Squirpia by the time he wakes up. A minor example in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. Luigi manages to sleep through not one, but two Bowser attacks, only waking up just before Bowser inhales him. |

The Walking Dead (2010): Rick Grimes was shot in the line of duty and subsequently in the hospital in a coma when the Zombie Apocalypse began; he doesn't wake up until two months into it, by which time society and any organized governments have already fallen. Rick's group finds an abandoned prison with some prisoners who have been trapped in the prison cafeteria for ten months since the beginning of the apocalypse and they don't have a single clue what's happened on the outside world. (Well, aside from the violent riot that started after someone in the prison died and ended up killing everyone but those five.) One starts begging for a cell phone to call his family, with no clue that modern communications no longer function. Later in Season 3, the group stumbles into the cabin of a senile hermit who appears to have next to no idea about what's been going on. He quickly becomes walker food when he's too much of a nuisance. |

According to the Red vs. Blue Ultimate Fan Guide, Grif was sent to the Red Team for doing this; basically, he fell asleep on duty at a base that was shortly overrun by aliens, and only survived because friend and foe alike thought he was KIA. | |

The Day of the Triffids: The main characters missed the meteor storm that blinded most of humanity. Bill Masen was in hospital with his eyes bandaged, Josella Playton took a sleeping pill to recover from a hangover and slept through it. The other non-blinded people underwent similar events (Coker stayed an entire day hidden in a basement because the police were looking for him, for example). | |

One guy in the middle segment of The Signal (2007) actually went about his day without noticing anything amiss, got to the New Year's Eve party, and thought nothing of all those present being covered in blood. He actually died without noticing the big picture. For reference, the titular signal made roughly 50% of the people in the city homicidal. | |

Her sister had gotten locked out of the house and crashed for the night in a metal garden shed, so also failed to witness the comet or succumb to its deadly radiations. | |

The protagonist Jim of 28 Days Later who was comatose in a hospital through the initial outbreak and evacuation. He wakes up naked in an abandoned hospital and spends a while wandering around an eerily empty London, trying to figure out what happened. Then he goes into a church full of dead bodies and meets his first zombies. The trope is almost referenced by name in the Suicide Note left for Jim by his parents: Jim waking up in a hospital is also a Shout-Out to the various versions of The Day of the Triffids, as seen below. |

In the first episode of Futurama, Fry is accidentally trapped in a stasis capsule for nearly a thousand years, and sleeps through at least two apocalypses and a period of reconstruction resulting in a far future that's a lot like the present, but with robots and spaceships. Later, an old girlfriend convinces him to travel to the year 4000 in "The Cryonic Woman", where the world is a post-apocalyptic wasteland ruled by children. However, it turns out he's still in the early 3000's but ended up in a bad part of Los Angeles. Apparently he indirectly caused the apocalypse, both times. Due to a time paradox. |

They only find out what it really was when Steven steps outside to grab the morning paper, sees the neighbors packing all their things and getting ready to leave, and then looking out and seeing the city-sized spaceship hovering over downtown Los Angeles. | |

The third Rebuild movie has a straighter example. The planet is in ruins and most of humanity has been killed off, and Shinji spends a total of fourteen years in non-aging stasis inside of a giant dormant mecha while this all happens. What makes it worse this time around, is that one of the first things Shinji finds out after he wakes up is that not only did he sleep through it (in what was probably the safest place on Earth for that entire time), but his actions in the previous movie are also what caused it. | |

Get Smart: Larabee apparently remained at CONTROL headquarters after it was shut down sometime after the cancellation of the original series until Max picked him up partway through Get Smart, Again, having failed to notice that CONTROL had been disbanded. He did this because he had been given an executive order to remain at his post. This order had been issued by President Nixon. The movie takes place at either the very end of the Reagan administration or the very beginning of the G. H. W. Bush administration. | |

Perry Rhodan's "Terra Patrol" consisted of some of the very few people left behind when Earth went through a plot-relevant Negative Space Wedgie and most of humanity simply disappeared... virtually all of whom were deeply unconscious or otherwise in significantly altered states of mind at the time of the event. The fact that these few start out scattered all over the planet and, with most of the world's infrastructure having mysteriously shut down as well, have to find each other first in order to be able to meaningfully team up provides a major driving force for for several issues' worth of plot. | |

In Endless Space, a small number of the eponymous Endless Pre Cursors managed to slip through the civil war ("Dust Wars") that destroyed their civilization and almost all of their species. Skuoi Kyryi fought in the Dust Wars, slowly becoming more augmented due to assassination attempts until he got sick of it and froze himself in a ship adrift in deep space, where he slept 'til he was recovered millennia later by a race of new upstarts. Kyuind Neuil, a Virtual Endless, managed an orbital factory in an isolated area, and tended his factory til he was discovered by an Automaton expedition. Eiyno Wraeil, a Concrete Endless was testing out a new hibernation pod right as the war broke out, destroying the robots that were set to awaken him after fifteen minutes, leading him to sleep for several thousand years. | |

Apocalypse, a Derren Brown special, involves setting up a young man who refuses to take responsibility for his life to believe that a meteor strike is imminent and then wake up in a hospital with a fake news report notifying people about a meteor-carried Hate Plague. Basically, the guy is supposed to have slept through a Zombie Apocalypse and must now take responsibility not only for himself but a young girl and a selfish asshole (meant to evoke disgust at himself) after the Reasonable Authority Figure is deliberately made to go away. Like all of Derren's specials on this scale (although this is probably the largest), everything is constantly monitored to prevent any harm from coming to the subject (physical or mental). The goal, as usual, is not only to show off Derren's skills and knowledge of psychology but also help the subject to be a better person. | |

It is implied that Princess Luna almost never intervenes in the plot of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic even in crisis situations because she is asleep during the day after being awake all night raising the moon and dealing with political issues, though she is sometimes seen awake during the day (the same goes for Celestia at night). It is comically brought up at the end of "A Canterlot Wedding Part 2" when she arrives at dusk asking if she missed anything. | |

Doctor Who: Played straight and then inverted with Donna Noble. When first introduced, Donna seemed to live in a little bubble, completely missing any extraterrestrial attacks on Earth. Meeting the Doctor made her a little more open to these things, and she later leaves to adventure around the universe with him. When the Earth is stolen, she undergoes a Time Lord-Human Meta-Crisis in order to save reality itself, and becomes half-alien. To keep her from over-loading, the Doctor has no choice but to wipe her memory of all the travels with him. The irony? She thinks she's slept through it all. | |

No one in Shaun of the Dead really notices the Zombie Apocalypse has started. Shaun even repeats his normal morning routine, not realizing all the people he usually interacts with are zombies or the signs of destruction, and slipping on some blood in a convenience store only caused him to pause for a second. A lot of the film's satire arises from the fact that the people were so boring and lifeless to begin with that most other people just saw them slouching around and moaning and thought "Oh, that's just Ted on his way to work." It certainly doesn't help that zombies in the film are shown to be incredibly slow, meaning that Shaun maintaining a brisk walk and refusing to talk to anyone (like he normally does) was enough to effectively outrun them. | |

In Snow White and Seven Dwarfs, Takeru wakes up to find himself in Hachiouji of a post-apocalyptic Tokyo, despite the last thing he remembers having been on the JR to Yokohama. He's mostly been in a coma ever since the apocalypse hit, with the memories of his few waking moments having been wiped. | |

This is the starting premise of Andromeda; Captain Dylan Hunt of the Systems Commonwealth is frozen in time for several centuries, and comes out of it to find that the Long Night has come and the Commonwealth has fallen. An unusual variation in that he was present at the very beginning and could have prevented it, but it would have involved the complete destruction of an inhabited solar system which he was reasonably reluctant to do. Interestingly, wiping out the system (and the Nietzschean armada) would have forestalled any further attempts by the Nietzscheans, as they only rebelled because they felt that the Commonwealth doesn't have the balls to do what is necessary to survive. |

The hero of The Day of the Triffids does this, when he is stuck in hospital with his eyes bandaged after suffering an accident that leaves him temporarily unable to see. Meanwhile, a meteor storm blinds almost everyone else in the world, leaving the hero, now able to see again, as one of the relatively few people who still has his sight — which against the titular Triffids, is definitely a good thing. | |

In Get Smart Again, Larrabee managed to completely fail to notice that CONTROL had been disbanded for years and remained at their headquarters until Max and Hymie picked him up because he had received a presidential order to remain at his post. Note that the president who gave the order was Richard Nixon, and the movie takes place in either the last year of the Reagan administration or the first year of the first Bush administration. | |

In the Revelation Space Series, the Epsilon Eridani system was in a golden age of technology, science, and morality. At some point in the 25th or 26th century, the Melding Plague arrived, corrupting the nanotechnology that made the civilization possible; its capital, Chasm City, was all but wrecked, and the Glitter Band — a ring of thousands of space stations — was reduced to the "Rust Belt" of a few dozen stations. Since there is no Faster-Than-Light Travel or Subspace Ansible technology, anyone who was returning to Yellowstone via Sleeper Starship suddenly found themselves in a borderline anarchist system with no technological base to repair or replace their advanced equipment and cybernetics. The novel Chasm City takes place a few years after the Melding Plague hits, and opens with a chilling message to any inbound starships that their civilization has essentially collapsed. | |

In the Gears of War novels Marcus and Co find a whole island that has been living in complete seclusion from the outside war since the start of the war. The war that burnt 99.9% of the world's land-mass to ash and almost led to mankind's destruction. They were quite shocked to find out all about this and the fact the war is "over". | |

Utawarerumono: Mask of Deception: It is eventually revealed that protagonist Haku was placed in suspended animation shortly before the human race was annihilated by Uitsalnemetia's curse. He wakes up some hundreds of years later when Kuon, one of the "proxy" demi-humans who have succeeded the human race, finds his pod and wakes him up. Unfortunately, a malfunction in the awakening process causes him to have amnesia about his past for most of the game. | |

And they're not even the last to know; that honor goes to a large number of high-schoolers (including one of their sisters) who held a secret party and didn't tell anyone else, leaving them unaccounted for until the climax of the film. | |

The protagonist in System Shock spends six months in an induced coma healing up from an operation to install a neural interface, awakening to find that SHODAN has turned Citadel Station into a chamber of mutant and cybernetic horrors. Nice Job Breaking It, Hacker. (Not really his fault, though: he was given the implant because it would keep him on ice for six months, in case Edward Diego needed him again). Happens again to a different guy in the sequel, only this time it's a Hive Mind of mutant worms and their Body Horror hybrids that have taken over an experimental starship. The worms were created by the Big Bad from the first game. Who is also still around. | |

In the Family Guy episode “Forget-Me-Not” Peter, Joe, Quagmire, and Brian waking up in a hospital with amnesia in a post-apocalyptic world where they are the last people (and dog) still alive, with no memories whatsoever. It's actually a virtual reality simulation created by Stewie, as part of a bet he made with Brian over whether or not Brian and Peter would still be friends if Peter was not Brian's owner. He does the same thing to Lois, Meg, and Bonnie, but they just all start fighting each other for apparently no reason. | |
