In accordance with the Rule of Funny and/or sometimes the Rule of Sexy, fictional characters suffer from a disproportionately high chance of ending up naked, or at least mostly naked, as a result of a piece of clothing getting stuck in a car or elevator door, snagged by a nail, or perhaps simply stepped on and subsequently ripped off. Often leads to a Comedic Underwear Exposure, Hand-or-Object Underwear or a Naked Freak-Out. Subtrope of Wardrobe Malfunction and Clothing Damage. As it's often played for laughs it also has a lot of overlap with Naked People Are Funny. Compare Giving Them the Strip, wherein a character intentionally removes a piece of their clothing to escape from someone or something holding them back by it. Sometimes this is caused by a Rod-and-Reel Repurposed. Also compare All Cloth Unravels and Theiss Titillation Theory. |

In the Choose Your Own Adventure book The Worst Day of Your Life, on one path you have to flee a house in the middle of a bath, forced to run while wearing only a towel. Not too long after, you leap over a fence, but your towel gets caught on the fence, leaving you to escape into the forest completely naked. Not that it matters much, since you stumble into quicksand shortly after and drown. | |

Looney Tunes: In "Mississippi Hare", Bugs dresses as a Southern Belle to escape Colonel Shuffle, and tricks another man into tossing the Colonel off the steamboat. Bugs' skirt then gets snagged on a gate, stripping off the back half. The man takes one look at the "lady's" exposed cottontail, throws a fit and jumps ship. "Aw, well. We almost had a romantic ending." The same gag is used in "Hare Trimmed", with Bugs pretending to be a widow that Yosemite Sam wants to marry. They are halfway to the altar when Bug's train gets caught in a nail, and Sam notices just as he's about to say "I do." Overlapping with Clothing Damage, this also happens to Daffy Duck at the tail end of "Stupor Duck". As the rocket on which he's riding goes toward the moon, his entire uniform is stripped away. |

"I could go hotter", she breezily replies and as she gets up to turn the heat dial her towel catches under Paul's hand and is snagged off of her entirely. | |

A common happenstance on The Benny Hill Show, usually accompanied by an exaggerated Stock Sound Effect of fabric ripping. For example in one sketch, some coppers (male and female) are giving chase to Benny, and have to go past a barbwire fence. After struggling for a bit, they go through but all of them snag their uniforms in doing so, ripping them off at the exact same time and leaving them in their underwear. | |

MouseHunt: While trying to operate his string factory single-handed (all the workers have quit because he can't pay them), Lars fails to notice a thread from his coat has become snagged and unravelled, and feeds it into the machinery. Then as he flails about trying to shut the machines down, more parts of his clothes keep getting caught and unraveled until he's stripped naked. For anyone curious, read the note it was knitted upside down so it would unravel from the bottom up or see here for how it was done. | |

Rugrats: In "The Big Diff", Angelica tells Tommy and Chuckie that they can't be best friends because they're too different, and best friends have to be exactly the same. While Tommy dresses in a blue shirt and green pants and ditches his diaper to be more like Chuckie, Chuckie dresses in a blue shirt and a diaper to try to be more like Tommy. When Tommy and Chuckie decide to go their separate ways, Chuckie stumbles back and his diaper gets caught on the leg of a toy cat, which pulls it off, leaving him naked from the waist down right in front of Susie, Phil, and Lil. | |

Mercilessly enforced in The Accidental Spy. Jackie Chan is ambushed by enemy agents in a Turkish bath, and after fighting his way out whilst clad in only a towel, some of the mooks tried pulling Chan's towel off. Chan ends up running across Istanbul's Grand Bazaar butt-naked (because Naked People Are Funny, that's why) and have to constantly grab hold of carpets, rugs, towels, and various items he can get his hands on to shield his privates, only for mooks to pull those off. Chan eventually got away by dashing into an alley and using a set of curtains as an impromptu hijab. | |

City Hunter: The Cupid's Perfume: At the gala, the tip of Kaori's dress gets caught in an elevator door as it is going up. She avoids getting stripped at first by stubbornly clinging to her dress, which results in her being lifted from the floor. Then Poncho tries to help her, but the elevator is stuck and he has to go up one floor by the stairs to make it move down. Of course, he mucks it up by going one floor too low, and this time Kaori's dress is ripped off her body, leaving her in underwear and garter belts in the hallway. | |

The cacti are so widely separated that it quickly becomes obvious that she's running by them on purpose so that her clothing can be ripped off for reasons of fanservice. | |

In the second half, Barney has the curse, but at the end of the episode, he enters an elevator with an attractive woman in a long dress. When the elevator goes down her dress gets stuck in the door and you hear textiles ripping. At that moment you know that Barney is freed from the curse. | |
