  3. Jake from the cartoon "Adventure Time", has the ability to shrink or expand, whether it be his entire body or just an arm. This is an example of exaggeration. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhNiWv-pGZ8

  6. The 2000 live-action-animated-combined movie "The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle" illustrates the squash and stretch principle of animation when one of the president's men in Washington D.C. folded and squished Bullwinkle into the computer who was later squeezed out when printed in New York City, as a form of transportation for a cartoon character.

    In the game "The Saboteur" your character will often do secondary actions while idling (main action), such as smoking, drinking, or coughing.
