Whether intentionally or not, what do movies depict or present wrong a lot of the time?
Getting knocked out for a length of time after being hit on the head is likely going to cause pretty significant brain injury or death.
CPR is so hilariously bad and completely against what is taught in even first aid classes. This includes hospital based medical dramas.
If a man and woman consume alcohol, there’s an 80% chance that it’s about to transition into a sex scene.
Explosions release a crazy amount of fire. In reality explosions are violently expanding gases with almost no flame seen.
Getting knocked out. Its super-bad for you.
Yep heard of this one! It’s pretty f-ed up that people are going out looking for fights thinking that thwre’s no harm in them or themselves getting a concussion
There’s music in the background and nobody hears it
When you get hit by a gun you don’t go flying.
When people wake up after sex they usually have their underwear on again.
How often real people have to go to the bathroom.
Defibrillators. They don’t start a heart that is stopped. They stop arrhytmias and give the body a chance to return to a normal rhythm.
Oh man! I never knew
Gear changes in cars. Any car racing or high speed chase these cars are always accelerating and changing through endless gears despite being on a long straight.
Except Ronin, Ronin does it well since the chase is in the city and they’re always slowing to avoid objects turn down alleyways etc so going through the gears over and over actually makes sense!
One I read about once.
Bonking people over the head to knock them out.
If you manage to hit them hard enough to actually put them out like that, they are likely bleeding internally and going to die without immidiate hospital care. Maybe even die anyway.
How easy it is to twist someones neck to kill them.
Honestly an important reality check. I’d convinced myself it was super easy
Cars explode after an accident.
Passwords can be guessed.
Up and Down exists in outer space.
Passwords can be guessed.
You would be shocked how often they can be.
Season plus year with a ! Is still very common.
Coffee cups and suitcases.
and bags of groceries
A whack to the head just puts people to sleep for a few minutes and then they carry on like normal.
People getting shot or killed. In reality, they don’t die instantly. They will act more surprised, then the panic sets in as they realise what happened and the pain sets in. They will cry for help as they slowly bleed out. It will take minutes. But that doesn’t look good on the screen. Some movies did parody this.
How long things take.
