Here you have to put a site which has adsense at the top most region as leader board. It can be the same website or different websites with adsense leader board ads.
You will find a page full of just adsense ads with absolutely NO VISIBLE CONTENT to the user (but CONTENT EXISTS and you can see content if you open that frame separately!)
Now the question is has this page violated TOS? Technically this page's source code would not show even a single adsense code. Take each frame, they also do not violate TOS as they may be containing only less than 3 ad units.
Now, in case content was on the page, but was not visible on the screen, the google will still show ads.
This is the technique used by people to show more than 3 ad units on a page you see.
Though the above example is an extreme case .... Normally people just increase from the 3 ads limit to 5 or 6 google ads on a page using iframe/frames.
Are we people who do not do it fools and the people who show multiple adsense pages in one page wise? or is it that such cases are violation of Adsense TOS?
I think an Adsense Advisor should comment on this one.

[edit reason] exemplified URLs [/edit]
TOS says about page with no content... but all these page have content, it is just not visible for us when it is framed. For the search engine, there is content in it.
I could have shown you some sites, but I think here linking out is not allowed ... that is why i had to create the code and show. :(
and as soon as you figure out how to do it... that will be the day they'll ban you.
AdSense will display ads based on the content of each page in the frame or iframe, not the parent frame.
Next thing you know you can force all the best high paying ads to show on your page!
Of course this is all fun and good until you get caught and banned.
Here is the source code of the page without url
