Beach Ball Bounce (also known as Beach Ball Bouncing, Balloon Bounce, Balloon Bouncing, Beach Balling, S2P, Sit to Pop, Sitburst, Sitpop, Paper Bag Burst or Weight Limit Ride) is a game by Amblin Entertainment when someone sits on a balloon or a beach ball until it pops.

1993-2003: Wakko

On September 13, 1993, the Warners managed to escape without outside help, much to the studio's chagrin. However, they were no longer able to completely contain them and resorted to simply trying to catch and lock them up as much as possible. During this time, the Warners also starred in their own show, Animaniacs, as one of six major segments; the show became popular in-universe, causing the children to receive fan mail and get swarmed at conventions. The Warners also became close with the show's producer, Steven Spielberg, who Wakko would sometimes call over lunch. Wakko is usually very polite to Scratchansniff, and seems to consider him a role model of sorts, as he can be seen imitating his movements at times; and he also tries to get the doctor to play with him or otherwise spend time with him. Though Wakko doesn't notice, Scratchansniff often gets very frustrated with him due to his habit of taking everything literally, which makes his job as a psychiatrist difficult, as Wakko will tell him what he is touching instead of how he feels, or inflate himself when asked to expand on a thought. Scratchansniff does seem to have made some headway with him, though- while Wakko is nowhere near de-zanitized, he has communicated to the doctor about his severe coulrophobia, which the doctor tries to help him with. The Warners also become acquainted with the studio nurse, Hello Nurse. Yakko and Wakko developed an intense crush on her, and whenever she appeared they will use their customary greeting and often leap into her arms and kiss her. For her part, Nurse seems to tolerate the Warners' behavior, though she does sometimes attempt to capture them with Ralph and Scratchansniff. She is one of the few characters that ever adjusts her wording for the Warners following a misunderstanding, such as in "Variety Speak" and "This Pun for Hire." She also pats Wakko and smiles while holding the boys in "Hello Nurse." The latter song also reveals the brothers are aware and in awe of her intelligence, as Wakko literally sings her praises.

Buster Bunny was changed to Bugs Bunny in 1995. Wile E. Coyote is very popular sitpopping inflatables, but often usually sitpops hopper balls. Elmyra Duff would also be seen sitpopping inflatable toys,and mostly sitpops latex balloons.

Dr. Scratchansniff left in 1998, with the his final episode being an intro to "The Animaniacs Suite."

On January 1, 2004, the inventor of Exercise Balls: Aquilino Cosani invented Pop-Resistant Exercise Balls since Wakko kept sitpopping them.

2003-2014: Mr. Whiskers

Looney Tunes: Back in Action was theatrically released in the United States on November 14, 2003 by Warner Bros. Pictures. It was the debut of Bugs Bunny's Inflatable Popping.

2014-2019: Robin

Bugs Bunny was later changed to Mr. Whiskers in 2018.

2019-present: Max

Mr. Whiskers, Robin and Max ended up no longer popping beach balls by December 2019, but he went back to popping beach balls in April 2020.

A likee video claimed that Pinkie Pie sat on a beach ball until it popped in Friendship is Magic.
