Zoom at the Top is a 1962 Merrie Melodies cartoon written and directed by Chuck Jones, starring Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner, up to their old antics.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Wile E. Coyote tries to get to the Road Runner on the other side of a canyon, but as he takes several steps backwards to rev up, the precipice that he stops on breaks off and falls with him, only to land safely between two cliff ends. But just as the Coyote gets off from the rock and onto the left cliff, it breaks off and falls down, followed by the broken precipice crushing him.Once he gets back up, he resumes his pursuit of the Road Runner, which ends when he and the bird stop right above a natural arch, pointing downwards. Wile E. then falls down to the bottom of the road as the Road Runner escapes once again......and that is when he starts his new unsuccessful schemes, including a bear trap, a jet mobile, an ACME Instant Icicle Maker and a boomerang coated with iron glue.

Bear Trap: Wile E. sets up one as his first plan to catch the Road Runner. The trap is really sensitive, so Wile E. makes sure to be careful as he steps out and places a bowl of bird seed on it. Once the Road Runner comes, however, he fails to set off the trap as he feasts on the bird seed, while Wile E. makes the mistake of trying to fix the problem with an oil can, causing the trap to snap and chomp him between its jaws.

Accordion Man: Wile E. gets squished into an accordion shape by a rock in one scene and gets snapped by the bear trap into a zigzagged shape in the other.

Battle Boomerang: For his final plan, the Coyote purchases an ACME Boomerang, paints iron glue on it and gets ready to toss it at the Road Runner in hopes that it will come back with the bird stuck to it. Unfortunately, things take a turn for the worst when the glue oozes onto his hand and he throws it.
