[[Bart Simpson]] once got involved in an incident which he skateboards nude.

== History ==
[[File:Simpsons movie trailer 3.png|250px|thumb|right]]
Homer asked Bart to skateboard naked to [[Krusty Burger]] and back as a dare, which he reluctantly did because Homer would have called him a chicken for life. After passing by many people, the police shot Bart's skateboard, causing him to collide with the window of Krusty Burger in front of the [[Flanders family]], with [[Ned]] holding a French fry over his crotch. The police tied him to a lamppost, where [[Nelson]] [[Ha Ha!|laughed at him for hours on end]]. When Homer caught up with him and the police, he got Bart to take the blame for the idea, otherwise Homer would have been sent to a short parental course. They entered Krusty Burger, where [[Ned]] gave Bart spare clothes (as Homer only brought a shirt and socks) and Homer discovered [[Plopper]].<ref>''[[The Simpsons Movie]]''</ref>

Bart saw a video recording of it when flicking channels.<ref>"[[Mothers and Other Strangers]]"</ref>

Part of it appeared in a thumbnail for a {{ap|YouTube|website}} video called "The Simpson Family's Most Problematic Moments!", uploaded by [[Sherri and Terri]].<ref>"[[My Life as a Vlog]]"</ref>

== Behind the Laughter ==
*The scene is inspired by a gag in the ''{{W|Austin Powers}}'' film series<ref name="moviecommentary">''[[The Simpsons Movie]]'' commentary</ref>, in which the titular character is seen nude and partially obscured by various objects.
**The idea for the scene was from [[Matt Groening]], and the penis was [[Mike Scully]]'s idea. However, on ''[[Simpsons Declassified]]'', [[Mike Reiss]] claimed either Groening or [[James Brooks]] came up with the scene, the latter laughed when [[Nancy Cartwright]] was recording sound effects.<ref>''[[Simpsons Declassified]]'' #3</ref>
*Several changes were made during the production of the movie:
**[[Sherri and Terri]] were originally going to be present in the scene, but were replaced with Homer. They are present in a piece of merchandise.
**Bart was to visit a grievance counselor (voiced by {{W|Minnie Driver}}) about coping with the incident, but the scene was cut from the film.
*This scene was adapted for a game on the [[Simpsonsmovie.com]] website. The game ends either if the police car catches up to Bart, or he does the window collision.
**Another piece of promotional material on the site shows Bart outside the [[Springfield Nuclear Power Plant]], even though it does not appear in the movie at that moment.
*Some of the producers thought that the scene could cause ''[[The Simpsons Movie]]'' to receive an R rating over Bart's penis briefly being visible, but they claimed that the MPAA reviewers saw a "really sad movie" immediately before, giving ''The Simpsons Movie'' a PG-13 rating.<ref name="moviecommentary"></ref>
**However, the film was rated lower than PG-13 equivalents in some countries, such as a PG in the United Kingdom.<ref>https://www.bbfc.co.uk/release/the-simpsons-movie-q29sbgvjdglvbjpwwc00ntqzmte</ref>
**Some airings of the film (such as FX) placed a censor bar over Bart's genitals, with the phrase "European version only" (or possibly others) being inserted over it.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/MovieDetails/comments/xeoey7/in_the_simpsons_movie_2007_in_the_televised/</ref>. In the commentary, this was mentioned as possibly needing to be done completely if the scene would not pass the censors.<ref name="moviecommentary"></ref>
*A reference to the scene appears in the [[Burger King#2007|Burger King]] figures released with the movie, although Bart is depicted undressing while skateboarding, while it happens off-screen immediately before it starts in the movie.
*An issue of [[Mad]] magazine in Germany contains a variant of Bart landing on the window, with a magnifying glass over what appears to be his genitals, but is actually {{Ch|SpongeBob SquarePants}}'s eyes.<ref>[https://madtrash.com/item/010920131/ MadTrash.com - "MAD Magazine #131"]</ref>
*Part of the aftermath scene, where Homer says "The worst day of your life, so far." to Bart when he is handcuffed to a lamppost, [https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/the-worst-day-of-your-life-so-far became an internet meme] by 2017.
