Dung Fu

"If you have any poo, fling it now."

—Mason the chimp, Madagascar

The art of combat with excreta, first employed by humanity's simian ancestors. It is almost Exactly What It Says on the Tin: a combat technique based on the throwing of feces.

Compare Urine Trouble and Fartillery. A subtrope of Toilet Humor (in most cases, this is rarely if ever Played for Drama) and a member of the Fu family.

Examples of Dung Fu include:

Comics

• Marvel Comics villain Bullseye was once given an all-liquid diet while in prison, because his jailers were afraid that he could turn solid waste into a deadly projectile. Since Bullseye's m.o. is turning anything he throws into a deadly projectile, this isn't that far-fetched.
• The Savage Dragon has a foe called Dung who shoots hot feces from his arm cannons.
• The Swedish comic book character Krystmarodören is an anarchic superhero with the power of super-pooping. He is once challenged by a copycat, Kung Kisstank, who uses technology to duplicate his powers and fires synthetic poop.

Films -- Live-Action

• In Monty Python and the Holy Grail, the French soldiers atop Castle Arrrrgh pour a chamber-pot on King Arthur's head.

Literature

• Animorphs 28 - The Experiment : The Yeerks are tampering with human food, and the team end up morphing chimpanzees to infiltrate one of their labs. Unfortunately, Visser 3 drops by to check on things by sheer bad luck, and orders the test chimps killed now that they've served their purpose. Marco, of course, is the one to suggest "Poop him!", getting him out of the room long enough for them to plan an escape. This is one of the books told from Ax's POV, which makes it even funnier.
• In one Dresden Files novel, Harry rescues some temple dog puppies from monkey demons. Flying monkey demons. Since Harry cannot catch a break, they chase him by flinging flaming monkey demon poo at him.

"The building was on fire. It wasn't my fault."

• The Star Trek novel Ex Machina opens with a young farmer throwing a handful of animal dung at his planet's leader.

• The Ultimate Fighter involves one of the fighters pranking the others by something he calls an "upper deck," involving his defecating in their toilet-tank.

Myths & Religion

• This is one of the hazards Hercules faced in confronting the Stymphalian birds, whose feces were deadly-poisonous to touch.

Video Games

• One of the explanations behind tea-bagging (squatting repeatedly on your kill's corpse) is the tea-bagger miming the action of taking a dump on the downed victim.

Web Comics

• Schlock Mercenary has a character who was illegally implanted with a top secret nanobot suite allowing to produce in his bodily fluids and excretions explosive and corrosive substances, "undetectable in their nascent state by current security screenings".
