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
