As a squad of stormtroopers bursts into the Death Star control room, the one on the right walks straight into the rising door and bonks his helmet. It stayed in the film. For the 2004 DVD, Lucasfilm added a thud sound effect, and in Attack of the Clones Jango Fett hits his head climbing into his ship, a nod to it.

How to find it

The Death Star control room scene, when the stormtroopers burst in on the hiding droids after Luke, Han and Chewbacca have left for the detention block. Watch the trooper on the right of the doorway.
