Things that exist only in the movie world not real life


1. Being thrust backwards when being shot. A bullet will actually pass throw or embed, both scenarios will now have the force to send someone flying backwards.

2. A knife being pulled out of a sheath will produce no metallic sound. Only metal on metal will.

Please add to the list

Pulling the pin on a grenade with your teeth.

A robot/computer controlled gun that would *ever* fire the weapon when a 100% chance of a kill shot is *not* the outcome. If the projectile was slow enough, the distance great enough and/or the target nimble enough to dodge the hit, the computer simply wouldn't waste the ammo on a non-guaranteed kill. Computers don't "spray & pray;" they calculate.

People who don't look like they they have much training with firearms being able to pull off really accurate shots, even while on the run. You see this a lot in zombie movies, characters will be pulling off headshots through the brain with pistons and their form will be terrible. Shooting a pistol accurately is actually a challenge, and takes a lot of practice.

One of the things I love about Shaun of the Dead is that when Shaun gets his hands on a rifle and tries using it, he struggles to hit a zombie from like fifteen feet away. It's a comedy but that's one of the more realistic shooting scenes I've seen.
