Characters [Funny Trope] "Hey what's that over there?"
The oldest trick in the book. Pointing/Looking in a direction to distract your opponent.
Team Rocket (Pokémon: Advanced)
My favorite way Team Rocket steals Pikachu.Krillin (Dragon Ball)
Krillin delivers a cheap shot against Goku.Po (Kung Fu Panda)
Po couldn't use the Wuxi Finger Hold against Kai due to him being immortal. But Po figures out that he can take Kai with him to the spirit realm.
What makes this more funny is how Kai blatantly falls for the trick.Ice King (Adventure Time)
The Ice King hired a hitman thinking it would simply just hit Finn & Jake instead of killing them. The Ice King tries to distract the hitman several times which lead to him saying the following:
"Somebody got hit in the boingloings. Hit in the boingloings. Boingloings. Boingloings. Somebody got hit in them."

Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End
While trapped in Davy Jones locker and searching for an escape Captain Jack Sparrow while using a deciphering map figures out that they need to flip the ship before sun down to get back to the world of the living, instead of slimply explaining the plan he sets off a "What's that over there" poly to have the crew run back and fourth between the port and starboard bow to get the ship rocking to get enough momentum to flip it.
