In many less serious works, when a character gets disintegrated, struck by lightning, or otherwise blown away, there is a tendency for the character's shoes to be left behind, wisps of smoke rising from each. See also Eyes Are Unbreakable for the eye version, and Free Wheel for when the obliteratee is a wheeled vehicle. Compare Empty Piles of Clothing for when there's more than just shoes left behind, and Dead Hat Shot, which can serve a similar purpose, but is much more ambiguous about it. |

Also comes up in Thud!. A team of dwarfs are sent to kill Sam Vimes' family. One attacks his wife (who is tending the swamp dragons at the time)... with a flamethrower. The dragons, being very competitive animals, take that as a challenge. Cue white hot iron boots sitting in a pool of molten sand, and the outline of a dwarf scorched onto the doors beyond. | |

Described in Starsiege as what happens when a human is struck by a Cybrid nano-infuser, becoming a one-person Grey Goo scenario. The nanites target metal atoms first, such as iron in the blood, which means that cloth, polymers, and similar materials are generally left untouched—the result is a horrific, steaming organic slurry with largely untouched clothing floating in it. | |

Whenever Crash Bandicoot gets killed in an explosion, he always leaves behind one smoking shoe, and, strangely, an eyeball. In the second game, if Crash is riding Polar (a polar bear cub) and crashes into a Nitro Crate, Polar will be unharmed as Crash's shoes land on either side of him. Followed by Crash's Goofy Print Underwear landing on his head. |

DEATH BATTLE!: Goku vs. Superman ends with a shot of the loser's boot floating in space, somehow having survived the Earth-Shattering Kaboom. Mario vs. Sonic (2018) ends with one of the loser's shoes (complete with the lower half of one of their legs) landing in the hands of the winner after the losing combatant is smashed into the ocean with a force several hundred times stronger than the Little Boy, the nuclear bomb dropped on Hiroshima, complete with a Mushroom Cloud (complete with eyes, similar to many elements in Mario's home series). |

Hobgoblins, featured on Mystery Science Theater 3000: a character is blown to bits with a hand grenade, leaving nothing but smoking boots. In the same scene, a character is set on fire from head to foot by another grenade. Several scenes later, he's shown to be still alive, albeit with a few sticking plasters and a crutch. | |

Arrow. Before being imprisoned in a Russian gulag Diggle is given an expensive coat to wear, knowing the guards will confiscate it when he's brought in. The coat is in fact a disguised bomb that blows up just when a guard is trying it on. As Diggle and the others pass through the guardroom, the camera pans across a pair of smoldering boots. | |

In the Looney Tunes short "Cock-A-Doodle-Duel", Foghorn Leghorn tricks a rival rooster into eating a bunch of corn, then shoots a lump of hot coal down his throat while he's crowing. When the corn inside his stomach explodes, all that's left of him is a few feathers and his smoldering feet, which proceed to walk away. | |

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987): Sky Turtles has Shredder make use of a special device to cause disturbed gravity across New York. The Turtles set out to investigate, but are quickly incapacitated. Bebop, Rocksteady and a pair of Foot Soldiers are sent to the surface to attack. The Turtles trip up Rocksteady to steal his boots to counteract the gravity increase, and Michelangelo gets the boots on his feet. To get the others able to move, he tricks the Foot Soliders into shooting each other, causing an I'm Melting! moment as the boots are left behind. Nothing is mentioned about the melted remains of the soliders as the other Turtles use the boots to get moving. | |

If a Troubleshooter in Paranoia doesn't have this done to him at some point, the GM is not doing his job right. It's even on the box art for the Paranoia: Mandatory !Bonus Fun! Card Game. In Paranoia 2nd Edition, there's a picture of a smoldering boot with a laser gun sticking out of the ash heap... and a nice big TM next to the picture. It's not just a recurring motif in the game - it's a trademark. In the XP edition, a pair of smoking boots is the symbol for the Zap play style, which advocates wild slapstick, excuse plots, and bad puns. Occasionally, a bot's lower ambulatory appendages are portrayed in the same pose. Actually lampshaded in the XP edition, in which a set of smoking boots is available as a toy on the open market (minimum clearance required is RED, refills are clearance ORANGE). They're likely to be used at least once in a dastardly plot; the big clue is that they are 1) equipment, 2) in Paranoia, 3) that players can access. |

Wonder Woman Vol 1: In a surprisingly gruesome take Steve Trevor's secretary Lila leaves behind smoldering lower legs, shoes still on, when she gets disintegrated by an experimental weapon left on Steve's desk in an assassination attempt. The upper part of her remaining body is buried in rubble with the feet sticking up in a way to bring the witch from the Wizard of Oz to mind. | |

In the Supernatural episode "Hunted," Sam walks into a grenade trap set by fellow hunter Gordon Walker. After the explosion, Gordon sees Sam's Smoldering Shoe on the floor. The trope is subverted when Sam walks up behind Gordon and holds a gun to his head. It helps that Sam had recently met a fellow psychic who had foreseen his death. | |

Discworld: In Sourcery it specifically says that there's always smoking boots left behind, no matter what causes an explosion. Another more specific instance comes in Small Gods, where it's noted that whenever a philosopher comes in and says the gods don't exist, "We find their sandals later, still smoking, and a lightning bolt with a little sign saying, 'Yes, we do.'" Smoking boots are also mentioned in Mort Also comes up in Thud!. A team of dwarfs are sent to kill Sam Vimes' family. One attacks his wife (who is tending the swamp dragons at the time)... with a flamethrower. The dragons, being very competitive animals, take that as a challenge.

In World of Warcraft this happens to a random gag NPC in Talador. Oddly, the shoes left behind (which can be looted) appear to be ordinary boots, and the NPC is a draenei, who can't wear regular shoes because of their hooves. Can be chalked up to Rule of Funny. | |

A variant in Batman Odyssey. In the infamous scene where Robin is blown up, the victim's still-intact boots and mask are seen being flung from the blast. Subverted though, as the Robin comes back in the next issue, with the explanation that he was wearing "directional explosives" and so was safe from the blast. Where he got the spare pair of clothes from is never explained. | |

As the The Order of the Stick example indicates, anyone hit with a Disintegration spell in Dungeons & Dragons 3.5 and failing their savenote and not surviving the up-to-40d6 damage will be reduced to dust, but leave their equipment intact. In earlier editions both wearer and equipment was destroyed, but this led to the spell being wholly underused and hated because most players want to keep their loot intact. But magical items were allowed a saving throw, so everything except boots turning into fine ashes was a possible outcome. | |

The fate of an unfortunate Widowmaker in this Overwatch animated parody by Krunkidile, lampooning the trend of licensed cereal in the 80s and early 90s. As Reaper is recast as a ridiculously 80's-style Sissy Villain somewhere between Skeletor and Cobra Commander, he is understandably horrified by this turn of events, before he is beaten to a pulp by a monkey. | |

In Turn Coat, book 11 of The Dresden Files, this is used as a threat. Ebenezar (Harry's second, better mentor) tells Lara Raith (the life-stealing succubus) that if she touches Harry again, all that will be left of her for her family to bury will be her five-hundred-dollar shoes. Just for the uninformed, Ebenezar is not exaggerating. |

SpongeBob SquarePants: In the episode "Hooky", Patrick takes SpongeBob to the "carnival", which is actually fishing hooks. When SpongeBob mentions that it's empty, Patrick mentions that there was a kid playing earlier, and at that moment a pair of sneakers appears in the foreground. In "Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy V", SpongeBob as the Quickster is accidentally lit on fire by Squidward as Captain Magma, and runs wildly in a circle until everything but his shoes has burnt away. He still says "Glad that's over." |

In Kingdom of Loathing, killing a hobo with over 500 points of hot damage makes only the charred boots remain. Said boots are collected and can be used as part of a "Scarehobo", which also needs hobo skins, eyeballs, skulls, guts and crotches, collected in the same manner with different elemental damage. Yes - you can literally hit a hobo out of his skin. Given that you can also embarrass them out of their crotches, this is almost reasonable by comparison. | |

In the "Between A Raccoon & A Hard Place," Megabyte's forces demand the PIDs of a group of binomes. One, an ovious stand-in for '' Captain Jean-Luc Picard, refuses, saying "The line must be drawn here!" An ABC then deletes him with a laser, leaving behind smoldering shoes. The other binomes immediatly hand over their PIDs. | |
