"In September 2013, singer Miley Cyrus mesmerized many with a spectacular pop music video in which she sings about a moving wrecking ball. This iconic image —and the song— quickly spread through the media, until someone noticed that The Simpsons did it first. In the fifth episode of season six (1994), city officials attempt to demolish the Simpson house to continue a public works project. To prevent this, Homer rides the wrecking ball that attacks his home, creating a scene very similar to the Miley Cyrus music video."
