Fan Casting Tap on the Head in Sort by Tropes

In fiction, anyone caught unaware may be easily, instantaneously and noiselessly incapacitated with a single blow to the head (or alternatively, a karate chop to the neck). A character thus treated will usually be perfectly fine afterwards; oh, they may have a headache, dizziness, slightly blurred vision, or in the very worst cases, Laser-Guided Amnesia, but this is nothing compared to the real danger — the Bad Guys standing around the operating table (or other heavy piece of furniture) to which they find themselves tied down.
