If it did then... I could just time WODjehjfkdhfW GJhgff and obtain all the technology, all the classified information, ALL the god dam knowledge. Simply by typing random gibberish for a few minutes/seconds or less. That would be broken if it could happen in real life.
Would depend on what is burning and how much fire in the house some objects give off more smoke than others and even different types of smoke depending on the material being burned.
Another issue with lava is that, where there is lava, there is generally a large quantity of unpleasant and toxic gasses. While much of what comes up with lava is water vapor (albeit superheated, which is pretty harmful in its own right), there is also large quantities of carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, and various hydrogen halides (like everyone's favorite, HCl, or hydrochloric acid). All of these are in a vapor form and all of them are dangerous in the quantities produced by volcanoes and lava vents. It won't just be the heat that kills you; it'll be that deep inhalation of acid that destroys the mucous membranes inside your sinuses, your lungs, and probably your eyes.
That has always bothered me too, not even a scratch after going through a plate glass window. Many years ago (before safety glass), I was working in the ER when a man who had gone backwards through a sliding glass door arrived via ambulance. I spent the next three hours picking fragments of glass out of his back-side.
not to be douchy about it because i was thinking the same thing but still you lose a part of your blood instantly with that arm and the quick severing of bones and nerves can make you go into shock, combine the dizziness from blood loss(just dizzy for being an arm) with that and you might black out and never wake up
-Water can save you from death at any falling distance. -Bullets always hit you in the shoulder if you are handsome enough. And that means no harm whatsoever. -Anybody can remove a bullet from your body without any side effect at all, only need to drop the bullet on a metal plate after. -You can survive several cuts from a sword or knife and keep fighting (if you are handsome enough again) -You always wake up from a coma with no damage. Maybe little amnesia. -No harm at all fron blanks, even if you put the gun in your mouth and fire it. If you are Nick Cage at least. -No harm at all from electricity, especialy magic/superpower kind. Sorry for my english. It is not my first language. Or second one XD
Actor Jon-Erik Hexum died from being shot with a blank. There was some cotton wadded into the gun barrel and was driven against his skull, sending a piece of bone into his brain. He was on life support, declared brain dead and disconnected.
I love how he attempts to dispel the myth that bombs are easily disarmed ... while showing clips of the bombs from Lethal Weapon 2 and The Dark Knight Rises. Neither bomb was disarmed in their respective films, and were allowed to detonate instead.
They actually showed on Mythbusters that the liquid nitrogen trick in Lethal Weapon would have actually given them time to just walk away from the bomb and have plenty of time before it went off.
Lab accidents don't give superpowers they thought the guy was going to die anyway so the Doctors experiment on him. Super hero is one of the few people that actually survive the accident and the Doctors experiments. In the case of the Fantastic four the Skrulls that showed up in the 2nd issue might have experiment on them in the first issue. The Skrulls knew who they were before anyone else did, and they were planning to wear disguises, they just decided to drop that idea.
11. Sustained fire is accurate. If you aim to chest first shot will surely hit, but second may even go over the head. It is really difficult to hold the gun steady enough to get satisfactory results. Single fire if way more effective. Sustained fire should only be used in short burst unregularly in close combat.
my dad-one of the best shots in his unit-proved the inaccuracy of sustained fire when a guy challenged him to using a semi automatic vs a full automatic. My dad fired three shots in the time it took to shoot a bunch from the full automatic, but all of my dad's hit the target.
I would like to add one. CPR. Most of the time, when someone does CPR in a movie, the person survives and is miraculously able to continue. In reality, CPR is literally a last ditch effort, and to do it correctly, you HAVE to fracture their ribs. That is to say, in real life, if CPR does work, they're not entirely out of the woods.
To be fair to Star Wars, Lightsabers cauterise their wounds so in that one instance loosing a limb isn't quite as traumatic. Being a Force user probably helps a whole hell of a lot, Just ask Ani.
Jake Theberge Well, yeah the wound gets cauterized, but a main artery would have trouble, the tube was cut And sealed, the blood has no place to go and the pressure will end up opening the wound again, still, the cauterization (or however you say it) will stop the bleeding of smaller veins And stuff, giving you a couple more minutes of life
Quavion Deering I dove through a living room window and got a huge gaping slice on my right forearm. Got 19 internal stitches and 30 external. Lost more blood from that act of lunacy then I did when I got stabbed in the ribs with a screwdriver.
A few more movie lies: "Gasoline vapor doesn't exist." How many times have movies shown us characters standing in, or surrounded by, spilled gas while they flick on a lighter or light a match, and nothing happens until the lighter/match is dropped onto the liquid gas? In reality the vapor is explosive and much more dangerous than the liquid gasoline. "You can outrun an explosion." In reality, even low explosives such as black powder propagate at ridiculously high speeds compared to human reactions. High explosives detonate at supersonic speeds. "If you fall into lava, you'll sink." Lava is molten ROCK, which is much, much denser than a human body. "Cars explode like bombs if they catch fire or get in a wreck." Nope, they just burn.
That's a another myth. A cigarette won't ignite gasoline. If you throw a lit cigarette into a puddle of gasoline, it will just go out. I've done it. Even fumes, unless closely confined won't ignite from a cigarette.
Hopefully, you will never be faced with trying to survive a nuke blast, whereas unfortunately shootings take place pretty much constantly in America and there's probably some jackass jumping off a roof with a rope tied around his waist right now.
actually, the reason he got into the refrigerator is that they were coated with lead, which stops radiation ( if there is enough lead). so you should actually hide inside a 1950 refrigerator if a nuke drop, provided you are outside of the blast range. and no one believes that scene anyway
MrElionor Literally the delivery mechanism is the definition of which one is which you consumer poison you are injected with venom. Oddly you can inject someone with poison and kill them but stomach acid neutralizes most venom.
darkdragonsoul99 Yes but for them to be the same thing as you claim the delivery mechanisms should be interchangeable which they are not venom is most potent in your blood that's it's definitive quality that's why it's injected poison is most potent when consumed that's it's definitive quality not how they are delivered they can be delivered anyway you can imagine but due to their properties and how they work each one has to be delivered in a unique specific way for maximum potency that's what makes them radically different again the delivery mechanism is irrelevant what matters is why that delivery mechanism is necessary
They used "poison" correctly. Yeah, they were mostly discussing venom from bites, but they also show the scene from Grimsby (or 'the Brothers Grimsby' in America) where he's hit by two poisoned darts and he sucks the poison out. Just because venom and poison (in the broad term) operate differently they are both forms of poisoning. The simple fact is that venom, even if it operates differently, *IS* a poison.
Actually, you’d be surprised how difficult it is to hit a moving target in a chaotic environment. While hiding behind a car or table really is useless, running perpendicular to the shooter gives you better than a 70% chance of evasion with a hand gun and better than 50% (I believe that number is correct) with a machine gun. Also, yes, there might be hard objects in a dumpster but if you really had to, a person could jump out of a 5th story window into a dumpster and not only survive but get out and run away ~ providing he/she actually landed directly in the dumpster and there were no aforementioned objects.
Dan Powers The probable situation is that they were shot with a 9mm. hollow point, the weakest of all bullets, But If they decide to change to a steel core or a green tip...then pray to god and wish that there's a good surgeon nearby
Teddy Roosevelt was giving a speech in Milwaukee,WI in 19something, and was shot with a .38 I believe. His 50 page plus speech curled up in his breast pocket, along with his glasses case did stop the shot enough that it didn't kill him, but he was still wounded. Even with getting shot he gave his speech, met people, then went and got looked at. The man was a complete bad ass.
I saw a bible at a museum with a shot still stuck in it (from some kind of musket or something), which in a Scottish school equated to the work of God - not the fact it was a weak shot from an old gun travelling a long distance and hitting a massively thick wad of leather and paper tightly compacted between leather armour and a body.
L8 Valentine it was a lead lined one which could, but your also gonna have to deal with fallout keeping the door closed while your literally flying and tumbling through th sky and getting smashed against the sides as you come in for a landing . so if the explosion didn't get you, you would have to deal with all that.
It all really depends on distance and the size of the warhead. At 700 meters, a human being can survive a 14 kiloton nuclear blast if they're protected by something thick, heavy, and radiation shielded- like the armor of a tank. Double the distance, with a lead lined refrigerator, it would certainly increase your chance of survival. As depicted in the movie? Yeah, you're dead, but it's not impossible, and it's certainly better then bending down and kissing your butt goodbye.
+david koonce In the movie, this was a one-off prototype refrigerator built specifically for the nuclear test. It would be reasonable to think the nuke-testing scientists that did the famous "build a house filled with stuff and crash test dummies in the blastzone of a nuke" experiments, would have systematically tested construction variations, such as specially reinforced fridges that could be distributed during peacetime and function as shelters during enemy attacks. Not that much in that movie made sense.
What about how crystal clear the water is in underwater scenes, even in disaster movies where the water would be anything BUT clear. Still, I suppose you still need to see what's going on.
A table wouldn't mater. It's too small. While a big wall maybe better in that case or a car. Yes, the bullets wont be stopt but it would be harder to get hit.
I'm glad I know not to jump into dumpsters from great heights... I'll stick with what video games taught me and jump from great heights into hay baskets.
BishopS You can actually jump into a dumpster and survive as long as the trash is soft (cardboard boxes and foam and trash bags full of food). Mythbusters actually tested this.
that's if you happen to run into trouble while running around a goodie two shoes town where people actually do the responsible thing and recycled glass and other sharp shitz
If someone has died, be it from asphyxiation, massive trauma, anything, just push on their chest a few times and there is a good chance they will cough, wake up and be almost good as new. And if those few seconds of utterly incompetent external heart massage don't work, you should give up and on your own completely ignorant medical expertise, declare the patient dead. Argh! Ultra high resolution images can be gotten from tiny croppings of low resolution photographs, by having an 'expert' work on it with a computer for a while. Not! It takes the police an amount of time to run a trace, and if you don't stay on the phone too long, they loose track and can't trace you. Yea, sure, please believe that wanabee kidnappers. You cannot jump through a plate glass window and not wind up with hundreds of stitches, assuming you don't bleed to death first. Bad guys do not go flying or even just drop whenever you hit them with a bullet. Most of the time if you are trying to hard stop an opponent, you need to put multiple rounds into them and do it fast. Those times you've heard of a cop putting a dozen rounds into someone, it wasn't the cop being overly exuberant, it was the cop firing the number of rounds that were needed. You do not survive explosions by virtue of running away from them. Cars do not explode whenever involved in a serious accident, nor to they explode when going over cliffs. Guns use ammo and the audience can count. You don't go into battle carrying six or eight firearms, and discard them as they run out of ammo. That doesn't make you a bad ass, it makes you an idiot. You carry one maybe two firearms and plenty of spare ammo magazines. We do not use only ten percent of our brain, human beings do not make great batteries, you don't cause asteroids to vanish with a nuke, planets don't go 'kaplooee', clones don't inherit memories, you don't bank spaceships in order to turn, etc., etc., etc.. There is hardly a movie out there that does not insult the intelligence of the audience.
THANK YOU! And defibrillators do not restart hearts like you are jump starting a Buick! They only work to regulate a heart that is weak or irregular in beating.
Good post; most tier one & Spec Ops units use smaller magazines then switch them out quickly rather than tote big clunky 40/50/100rd mags. 👎... they want to be swift & nimble. To fend off close range threats or transition to different weapons/skills as needed. BTW; 12ga shotguns are LOUD as %&*=. 😮 They recoil hard too with 00 buck 2 3/4 loads...
I'd add that author Ian Fleming's 007, Bond was trained by MI-6/SAS to NEVER run away from a demo-bomb-device. You could trip or knocked down then... BOOM 👎
Hiding behind a car or a table in a gun fight is better than nothing. The two immediate advantages that come to mind are... 1) -- Assuming the vehicle or table is large enough, it hides you from whomever is shooting at you, which takes away their ability to aim well. 2) -- The more the bullet has to hit before hitting you, the slower it will be going if and when it hits you. *One night, during WWII, Star Trek actor James Doohan, while serving with the Royal Canadian Artillery, was shot **_SIX_** times by a nervous sentry* -- four in the legs, one that took his middle finger of his right hand, and one square in the chest. The first five were survivable, but the one in his chest should have killed him, however... instead of hitting him, the bullet hit his silver cigarette lighter, and that tiny lighter was all the difference between living and dying. So, if you someday accidentally walk into the middle of a gun-battle, or find yourself put into one on purpose... go ahead and hide behind something... it's better than nothing at all.
Star Wars explains the limb thing adequately. The Lightsaber is so hot it actually cauterizes wounds and burns them immediatly shut, hence there is no blood flow. When Luke and Anakin get their arms cut off there is no blood, only burnt flesh. We see Anakin's arm in particular is white hot.
IS THAT SEXUAL HARASSMENT? If you go in at a perfect 90° to the water, and feet first, you can survive, but your legs will probably be broke to little bits
Triggly Puff some of the jumps I've seen in movies are ridiculous. some jump out of planes thousands of feet in the air into water and they turn out perfectly fine or even from a high bridge. like people think no matter how high you are, as long as you dive you will be fine. but I agree with you also, and the movies don't even show that. They dive into water from a bridge and they are perfectly fine from a swim.
British people will use whichever measurement system lets them complain the most. If it's cold they'll go on and on about how it's 3 celsius, but if it's hot they'll say it's 80 fahrenheit.
I was thinking the exact same xD Also I cant remember a movie where it is easy to defuse the bomb after all every movie wants tension. The only thing that maybe bullshit is the different colours.
@@f18181 The color thing is real. If you don't know which wire is which when you are making it you will blow yourself up. That the detectives often appear to have unwarranted insight into the color coding system of the bomber is odd.
heck you can swallow venom, there is a reason why snakes like garter snakes and what not arn't dangerous, venom is broken down by saliva and the stomach, I mean the point about it already in the blood is probably true, but it won't hurt either.
I would add jumping out of a moving train. If it moves slowly, you can get quite hurt, but anything even slightly faster can seriously injure you. And in movies they always jump out of fast moving trains so... no way they would survive that.
Most people who fire a gun at you have seen you beforehand, and that was the context of the video. Even if you are behind a table, then you're still known to be there and you're pretty much 100% dead.
Thank you for mentioning that bullets actually go through things. I love when actors duck beneath the head rests in their cars during gun fights because that makes sense
That maybe so but you would probably still die from a lightsaber wound since cauterising leaves the wounded person extremely susceptible to infection, which will likely kill you anyway.
Mary Beth Robertson I suppose he was, he didn't spend too long hanging on to those aerial things from Cloud City did he? Regardless I'd say that the lightsaber cauterising the inflicted wound alone wouldn't save your life and in general... avoid having your limbs hacked off I guess.
you can survive having an arm cut off. However, what the presenter is stating is true-if you get a limb lopped off and it is untreated, you risk bleeding to death.
@@zatoth13 Well the drummer from Def Leopard lost his arm, got out of the car, walked down the road, found a couple of farmers, and introduced himself.
@@bugsymalone5744 Look it up man. It's a fact in the historical record with three witnesses. Of course he was in shock and introduced himself as "Def Leopard" but that's how it happened.
If you ever have to disarm a bomb, but don't know which wire to cut, cut all of them at the same time. Because 1) you'll cut the wire you have to cut no matter which one it is and 2) you'll cut the power source to the detonator. Easy as pie.
Using Star Wars characters as examples of getting limbs chopped off isn't fair. For one thing, we don't know if light sabers would provide enough heat to cauterize the wound and reduce blood loss. Also, these people are in a galaxy far, far away. They look human, but we don't know for sure if their physiology is like ours. Maybe they really can lose a limb and call it a flesh wound.
Furthermore, even if the lightsaber didn't cauterize the wound, surely a Jedi could use The Force to prevent excessive bleeding. If they can move objects, and strangle people, I'm sure it's not unreasonable to suspect they'd be able to essentially apply a telekinetic bandage to their wound so long as the pain doesn't disallow concentration from the act.
Just watched a video recently stating the massive heat from a real lightsaber would not leave a nice, clean, instantly-cauterized wound, but would instead flash boil your flesh and kill you in a disgusting explosion.
Luke Skywalker and anakin Skywalker shouldn't die because lightsaber wounds are not like sword wounds because they do not cause blood to spew out from the wound, because lightsabers are awesome. So, if darth Vader cuts your arm off, you will not die from blood loss, you will more likely die from darth Vader finishing the job.
This is one of the most grossly inaccurate videos I've ever seen. Like, how you mix up poison and venom. A snake bite carries venom. Venom, when ingested, typically isn't harmful. It has to go into the bloodstream. As far as hiding behind things like doors or whatever to avoid getting shot, actually, yes, fucking do that. It may not completely stop an oncoming bullet, but what it will do it slow it down and take away some of the energy from the bullet's momentum and it will be less likely to kill or seriously injure you. More importantly, people have been saved by Bibles stopping bullets. That's not something Hollywood made up. That actually has happened. There's at least two verifiable accounts and several that were claimed and plausible. Most importantly, you talk about machine guns then bring up AK-47's. An AK-47 is not a machine gun, it's an automatic assault rifle. Then again, I guess I wouldn't have known that either if it weren't for my time in the Army, so I guess I can't knock you too hard for that. But, still, venom and poison aren't the same. That's the big one.
BillyVG I think the message about the table is that it won't save you the way that movies portray. I would say that the general message of the video is accurate, despite some errors in semantics. You do make valid points, though.
your mouth is one of the best places to get things Into your bloodstream without cutting yourself. underneath your toung and your gums are like quick access for your blood stream. so ingested may be the wrong word but there not wrong putting venom in your mouth isnt a good idea.
also you don't want to slow a bullet down because a bullet stuck in your body is much worse then it going through your body especially if you cant get immediate medical attention the main reason seekimg cover is a good idea is trying to break line of sight because running a way and leaving yourself wide open is a good way to die. as for the bible yes a bible would stop most bullets because paper with the exception of sand is the best way to stop a bullet funnily enough. and the thing about machine guns and automatic rifles being different things well I did not know that. if you could explain it to me I would be very interested to hear it.
+darmam0o Machines are much larger and heavier (some cannot be carried or fired by a single person alone), can fire larger caliber ammo, and have a faster rate of fire that an assault rifle. Not a gun expert, but that's my take.
I think the original idea for hiding behind something in a gunfight is to make it harder for them to aim at you. It won’t stop the bullet, but they can’t aim for a kill shot
1:32 actually Steve did get hit. You can actually see him clutching his side in the next scene. But since he heals very fast, by the time he pulled the hydra agent out of the river, the bullet scratch is gone. 4:11 Captain America: the Winter Soldier, Steve runs through the upturned bus while being fired at by a machine gun. 5:22 Deadpool can survive anything. Bloke grew half of his body, so these rules are just for us puny humans, not for him. 6:32 That's the reason behind Gwen Stacy's death in the Amazing Spiderman 2
People forget that he's superhuman, period. He has all the writers and plot holes on his side, along with exhibiting numerous impossible physical abilities that only look realistic in comparison to the over the top supers in the same issue.
Though someone has already pointed out the idiocy of the venom argument, Number 6 is completely wrong as well. The question of whether or not you survive a lost limb or not is almost entirely dependent on what you do to address the injury in the 5-10 minutes you will have before bleeding out. As someone who has actually lost a limb and had it replaced, I can attest to this as fact. As long as you are intelligent enough to apply a tourniquet immediately, you will probably survive even if it takes several hours (or even a few days) to get medical attention. In my own case I had an accident in which a window cut my arm completely off, just below the elbow (the bone was still intact but the entire non-bone part was cut through). I was still conscious and able to grab a plastic bag on the ground and immediately bind it tight. It helped that a person came to my assistance fairly quickly, and helped me secure the tourniquet. But it was nearly an hour before an ambulance got there. I lost a lot of blood but never even lost consciousness. This isnt a one-off "lucky escape" either. There was even a movie about a guy who cut off his own arm to free himself from being trapped under a boulder. Again, he survived despite needing a day or more before he reached medical professionals. Lecter, who is a doctor and had a houseful of potential items to use , surely would have had a tourniquet applied in a matter of seconds. Luke had the wound cauterized by a lightsaber, so might not even have needed a tourniquet. The clip included in your video had the guy already tourniquetted up. All three cases would NOT have been life threatening (assuming the person kept their head, and applied a tourniquet.
A few more lies from Hollyweird; about guns-the shooter runs out of ammo with an automatic pistol and it clicks (the sound of the hammer hitting and no discharged round). It DOESN'T CLICK! The slide locks back because the magazine has a stop on it and the hammer cannot move! A revolver will do this but an automatic will not. And a revolver only fire 6 six bullets, not the 83 that Roy Rogers's six shooter fires! Also, and this is a big lie that even politicians believe; suppressors do NOT mute a gun! They drop the decibel level from the level of a gun shot to the level of a jack hammer. Just below the permanent hearing loss threshold. No sneaky assassins with silencers... About police; no, if you ask an officer if he is a cop he does not have to tell you. And yes the charges will stick. No, an officer does not need to read the Miranda warning after putting on the restraints. And yes, the charges will still stick. (Miranda only need be read prior to the beginning of a custodial [under arrest] interview).
firing a gun regularly in the open let alone in enclosed spaces can cause serious damaging to your hearing. Thats why you wear ear defenders or plugs at least.
Bullets are, in fact, made generally of copper (soft metal) and lead (softer metal). But they puncture through steel, wood, whatever shield you see in movies, based on CONCUSSIVE SHOCK to the surface. The impacted material fragments or bends away from the concussion, leaving a hole through the bullet, though mangled, smashed, or even in pieces continues at a slower rate (compared to muzzle velocity). Note: mangled, smashed, and fragmented bullets WILL STILL KILL YOU. Just look at hollow point ammunition, it doesn't do it's job until it warps due to smashing into something!
That's true, but the audience has to draw conclusions about the relative frailty of the characters to themselves and people they know in their reality. If stormtroopers can't shoot for shit, then why are they using guns? Give 'em swords. Damn, I guess they did, at least for the upper-crust types.
Part of legitimate police training is using your car door for cover in a gunfight. Although not infailable, there's 3" think reinforced steel inside of most modern car doors to protect occupants during collisions.
John Milton as a cop I can assure you taking cover behind a door is not trained and bullets will punch straight through a car door and into the door on the other side.
Unless it's a rare and uber secret type of super cop car, bullets are whizzing strait through.. The only point to hiding behind a door is to try and obscure your location.. Not to provide bullet resistance.. Flat as can be with no cover is better than upright behind a door or tree or wall made of gypsum. I can assure you, even tiny 22LR runs through 1' thick trees, so... 3" thick piece of steel (reinforced, even??) in modern car doors? I call BS.. Prove it. Having worked on tons of cars, modern, and not, I've never seen a 3" thick chunk of any sort of metal.. Let alone reinforced steel.. Even if there were, a high powered rifle would throw bits about. Better by far to have 3-4" of sandbag. Both would make the car get like 2 mpg.. But sand is a better stopper with less thrown pieces.. Or so I've seen in my experience.. Of course, some folks watch too many movies... Maybe I'm that guy.
Not to mention getting shot through metal is preferable to getting shot not-through metal. Slowing down the bullet in any way will make it less dangerous - even if it will still hit you.
3" steel? Cars are built like aluminum cans. Even roll bars were kinda new a few decades ago. Thick steel would be insane for gas mileage, maneuverability, or high energy crashes.
Nicholas Wheeler I think we need myth busters to settle this. Also: the reason those lil Toyota trucks crush like tin cans in a crash is because they don't have the 3" reinforced steel inside of the doors.
I work in a foundry melting aluminum. The blast furnaces are 3200°. Standing even 10ft from an opening without protection can lead to heat related injuries. I'm talking heat exhaustion to the point of collapse.
Tosh Outdoors yeah kinda weird that it was included. When we used to camp a lot in az we had a snakebite kit that included this suction thing. To suck the venom out. So yes if you get immediate suction on the bite you can help someone. And no its not gonna hurt you unless you have an open wound in your mouth.
well not all snake, but you mostly correct, except rattle, some viper, black mamba, king cobra, and some other perfectly lethal snake bite, most venom from snake is harmless for digestion
Full automatic fire is called spray and pray for a reason. After Vietnam the Army revised their tactics and went back to semiauto fire. The German's understoid this when they developed the Sturmgewhr 44. Automatic fire was for supression only. The Sturmgewhr was to be used as a semiautomatic rifle like the M-1 most of the time. So you really do have a higher probability of surviving the inaccurately fired machine gun.
Nearly every example you gave for the Bomb Defusing portion was ironically a scene where the bomb was NOT defused and either later blew up, was forced to detonate, or otherwise remained active. The one scene from Armageddon was a bomb that actually was designed to be easy to disarm if you had the proper codes.
This list as much as it is trying to be "Clever" and tell off movies for being "Wrong" gets a number of things wrong itself. First of all Snakes don't inject poison, they inject Venom. Next, in the case of Star Wars characters getting their limbs cut off by lightsabers, for the most part, they cauterise the wounds and stop bleeding from taking place (Though the scene in the canteen is considered a error now). And in the case of Robocop, he actually did die from his own limb getting blown off, the rest were taken off surgically. And lastly, in Lethal Weapon 2, the bomb in that scene had no timer and no wires were cut to diffuse it. Liquid nitrogen was used to freeze it as best as possible to slow it down to give the officer enough time to jump into a cast iron bathtub covered with bomb blankets. So gotta give these movies some credit and not just shit on them when you too made some errors.
@@flacidhouse350 How's that? There was blood where its now canon there wold not be. And the arm was the wrong arm altogether. It was the Lak Sivrak's arm as opposed to Ponda Baba's.
@@flacidhouse350 Doesn't matter where it came from. What matters it looks nothing like it did before it got chopped off. And that goes for fingers and the extra fur.
I've never learned so much from Jules before. All the rest of his videos have taught me that my mom loves him too frequently and that he's got a lot of puns.
1. Bullets don't "tend to be made out of hard metal." Bullets, discounting armor penetrating rounds, are made out of lead which is a very soft metal. 2. Books actually are pretty good at stopping standard pistols rounds. A thick bible, for instance, would have a pretty good chance at stopping a typical bullet of the most common pistols rounds. Mythbusters actually used half phone books as armour and other than the .50 BMG, they stopped everything. 3. "Any contact with poison is going to have consequences and putting it in your mouth where it can be ingested is a quick recipe for disaster" Snakes DO NOT INJECT POISON! This goes for spiders, bees, etc; they inject venom. The difference being that venom must be injected in to the blood steam. If you swallow a typical "bite's worth" of rattlesnake venom or just swallow an entire black widow, as long as it didn't bite you in the process, you are almost certainly going to be fine (a poison dart frog on the hand . . . ) 4. Untrained people are a lot less accurate with guns than you think. Some of it is that, possibly due to movies, people who don't own guns may underestimate just how hard it is to hit a moving target like a person, especially with something like a handgun, from ranges even as short 5-10 meters. Add on top of that that you are being fired upon at the same time. Plus, the vast majority of people don't want to kill anyone. While the specific number may be off a little, it is said that only about 2% of soldiers shoot to kill. They tend to intentionally miss, whether they know that is what they are doing or not. Over the past century modern nations have changed their military training and have almost entirely gotten rid of this issue. As a result, when going up against untrained militias as we did in Somalia, U.S. troops hit the enemy with ease but the far more numerous Somalians missed well over 99% of the time despite using MACHINE GUNS. If you watch the movie Black Hawk Down, the inaccuracy of the Somalians is pretty well represented. Overall: your video on "lies told by movies" is you telling a bunch of lies.
The fuel pump shutoff in cars. In most cases, a car’s fuel pump is disabled in collision, so the car will not keep running, and it also won’t burst into flames!
Hollow point rounds are not meant for penetration, so yes a lot of things can cause them to break apart on impact. That's the reason cops use them that way they don't go through whoever they shoot at
The FBI protocol or barrier tests say a handgun caliber bullet fired from a modern sidearm should punch thru 12"-18" of a common barrier: wood, auto glass, denim fabric, metal. Many brands like Hornady Critical Duty, Speer Gold Dot, Winchester Ranger T, DPX can do it.
@@DavidLLambertmobile But, with hollow points specifically, when they enter flesh, muscle, hit bone, deal with the resistance of clothing and internals, eventually the bullet will have shattered sufficiently enough to prevent overwhelming penetration there after. It also depends on the caliber of bullet, the range, the velocity, and the length of the barrel of the firearm.
@@zagorith14 Yeah, the specific point of hollow points is that the penetrate less and distribute the maximum amount of momentum through the target with a wider impact zone.
As long as the booby trap isn't itself booby trapped than it can be VERY easy to disable a bomb depending on how it's made. 1. Pull out blasting cap 2. Put something between cap and explosive (just in case). 3. Cut wire. Without a blasting cap you can throw a block of C4 into a fire and it WILL NOT BLOW UP!
Here's one you missed: EXPLOSIONS DON'T KILL YOU; SHRAPNEL/FRAGMENTATION DOES. Even many "realistic" films love to show military battles or fire fights with explosions going off all around our heroes. Maybe they're in a warzone and the area is being shelled or maybe someone just tossed a grenade. In most of these films, the movie logic seems to be that as long as someone isn't touched by the flames of an explosion, they'll just be safely blown aside by the blast or ignore it entirely. In the real world, the little pieces of metal that fly in all directions out from the explosion are what's going to tear your body to shreds. Nevertheless, movies still love to show deadly explosions happening around a character who just ends up a little dusty. It's kind of like the lava example but it happens way more frequently. Perhaps the biggest problem with this is that it gives us a sanitized, action-hero perception of war in which a battle is like a fireworks show instead of a hellish experience in which men are frequently blown into pieces.
Two of my favorite relevant scenes from books: 1. A scene in a supernatural thriller where one of the heros gets hit in the head and knocked out, and it looks like everything is going to be fine like usual in these stories, only then he dies of a concussion. 2. A scene in a scifi novel where a guy sucks poison out of someone's wound and has to be treated for poisoning because he did that stupid thing.
#1: to be fair, while the point about clocks and wire color coding is quite valid, the idea that bombs are "nothing to worry about" is certainly not borne out in the film. It's an incredibly tense period in the film, and Riggs' insanity/loyalty are highlighted by the fact he chooses to stay with Murtaugh. Yes, it all works out in the end. No, it isn't played off as some simple, easy-to-defeat measure, free from drama and risk.

What about walking around in burning houses, with perfect eyesight and without a slightest cough
Would depend on what is burning and how much fire in the house some objects give off more smoke than others and even different types of smoke depending on the material being burned.
Exactly. No one in movies ever dies from smoke inhalation, and lungs shrinkage to size of walnut from fire...if main character.
Or getting poisoned by the assorted things such as plastics, synthetic cloth, varnish, cleaning supplies, etc being burned and giving off fumes.
How about being able to see clearly under water. Eyes don't work that way.
Shut up
Another issue with lava is that, where there is lava, there is generally a large quantity of unpleasant and toxic gasses. While much of what comes up with lava is water vapor (albeit superheated, which is pretty harmful in its own right), there is also large quantities of carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, and various hydrogen halides (like everyone's favorite, HCl, or hydrochloric acid). All of these are in a vapor form and all of them are dangerous in the quantities produced by volcanoes and lava vents. It won't just be the heat that kills you; it'll be that deep inhalation of acid that destroys the mucous membranes inside your sinuses, your lungs, and probably your eyes.
WOW!!
My personal number one. Being thrown through a pane of glass and you walk away utterly unscathed. Even your clothes.
I steped on a big glass table top in my super packed gurage. And my foot went threw. had to get stitches in 3 difrent spots
That has always bothered me too, not even a scratch after going through a plate glass window. Many years ago (before safety glass), I was working in the ER when a man who had gone backwards through a sliding glass door arrived via ambulance. I spent the next three hours picking fragments of glass out of his back-side.

Well to be fair to Anakin and Luke, their wounds were cauterized immediately due to the heat of the lightsabers so blood loss wouldn't be an issue
bruh, you literally said exactly what i was about to *applause*
Darn! Beat me too it as well :P
not to be douchy about it because i was thinking the same thing but still you lose a part of your blood instantly with that arm and the quick severing of bones and nerves can make you go into shock, combine the dizziness from blood loss(just dizzy for being an arm) with that and you might black out and never wake up
Also keep in mind that we're talking about Jedi. JEDI. NOT normal human beings. These people are far superior than us regular shits :P
good observation. all of that sounds exactly how luke reacted tho(aside from passing out) so.... what's your point?
Actually, if a lightsaber removes a limb, you won't bleed. Lightsabers cauterize the wounds they make.

-Bullets always hit you in the shoulder if you are handsome enough. And that means no harm whatsoever.
-Anybody can remove a bullet from your body without any side effect at all, only need to drop the bullet on a metal plate after.
-You can survive several cuts from a sword or knife and keep fighting (if you are handsome enough again)
-You always wake up from a coma with no damage. Maybe little amnesia.
-No harm at all fron blanks, even if you put the gun in your mouth and fire it. If you are Nick Cage at least.

I love how he attempts to dispel the myth that bombs are easily disarmed ... while showing clips of the bombs from Lethal Weapon 2 and The Dark Knight Rises. Neither bomb was disarmed in their respective films, and were allowed to detonate instead.
They actually showed on Mythbusters that the liquid nitrogen trick in Lethal Weapon would have actually given them time to just walk away from the bomb and have plenty of time before it went off.

Lab accidents don't give superpowers they thought the guy was going to die anyway so the Doctors experiment on him.

The Skrulls knew who they were before anyone else did, and they were planning to wear disguises, they just decided to drop that idea.

11. Sustained fire is accurate. If you aim to chest first shot will surely hit, but second may even go over the head. It is really difficult to hold the gun steady enough to get satisfactory results. Single fire if way more effective. Sustained fire should only be used in short burst unregularly in close combat.
my dad-one of the best shots in his unit-proved the inaccuracy of sustained fire when a guy challenged him to using a semi automatic vs a full automatic. My dad fired three shots in the time it took to shoot a bunch from the full automatic, but all of my dad's hit the target.
I would like to add one. CPR. Most of the time, when someone does CPR in a movie, the person survives and is miraculously able to continue. In reality, CPR is literally a last ditch effort, and to do it correctly, you HAVE to fracture their ribs. That is to say, in real life, if CPR does work, they're not entirely out of the woods.
You don't HAVE to fracture ribs to do CPR right... but it's frighteningly easy to do.

To be fair to Star Wars, Lightsabers cauterise their wounds so in that one instance loosing a limb isn't quite as traumatic. Being a Force user probably helps a whole hell of a lot, Just ask Ani.
Jake Theberge Well, yeah the wound gets cauterized, but a main artery would have trouble, the tube was cut And sealed, the blood has no place to go and the pressure will end up opening the wound again, still, the cauterization (or however you say it) will stop the bleeding of smaller veins And stuff, giving you a couple more minutes of life
Limon True.
There's also a little thing called "shock"...
but... he was very VERY near lava too...
Shock doesn't prevent blood loss, blood loss causes hypovolemic shock.

A few more movie lies:
"Gasoline vapor doesn't exist." How many times have movies shown us characters standing in, or surrounded by, spilled gas while they flick on a lighter or light a match, and nothing happens until the lighter/match is dropped onto the liquid gas? In reality the vapor is explosive and much more dangerous than the liquid gasoline.
"You can outrun an explosion." In reality, even low explosives such as black powder propagate at ridiculously high speeds compared to human reactions. High explosives detonate at supersonic speeds.
"If you fall into lava, you'll sink." Lava is molten ROCK, which is much, much denser than a human body.
"Cars explode like bombs if they catch fire or get in a wreck." Nope, they just burn.
That's a another myth. A cigarette won't ignite gasoline. If you throw a lit cigarette into a puddle of gasoline, it will just go out. I've done it. Even fumes, unless closely confined won't ignite from a cigarette.
Indiana Jones and the refrigerator
Hopefully, you will never be faced with trying to survive a nuke blast, whereas unfortunately shootings take place pretty much constantly in America and there's probably some jackass jumping off a roof with a rope tied around his waist right now.
If you're counting police violence, sure. Civilian violence is down for decades.
He never actually stated how powerful the bomb was in Indiana Jones. They were testing something not bombing a city so wouldn't be a full power bomb.
actually, the reason he got into the refrigerator is that they were coated with lead, which stops radiation ( if there is enough lead). so you should actually hide inside a 1950 refrigerator if a nuke drop, provided you are outside of the blast range.
and no one believes that scene anyway
Good luck staying in a refrigerator long enough for the radiation to dissipate to a non-lethal level.
Poison and venom are NOT the same.
well venom is a specific kind of poison the only real differentiating thing is the delivery mechanism
darkdragonsoul99
What? No it isn't the delivery mechanism is irrelevant to what they are or do
MrElionor
Literally the delivery mechanism is the definition of which one is which you consumer poison you are injected with venom.
Oddly you can inject someone with poison and kill them but stomach acid neutralizes most venom.
darkdragonsoul99
Yes but for them to be the same thing as you claim the delivery mechanisms should be interchangeable which they are not venom is most potent in your blood that's it's definitive quality that's why it's injected poison is most potent when consumed that's it's definitive quality not how they are delivered they can be delivered anyway you can imagine but due to their properties and how they work each one has to be delivered in a unique specific way for maximum potency that's what makes them radically different again the delivery mechanism is irrelevant what matters is why that delivery mechanism is necessary
They used "poison" correctly. Yeah, they were mostly discussing venom from bites, but they also show the scene from Grimsby (or 'the Brothers Grimsby' in America) where he's hit by two poisoned darts and he sucks the poison out. Just because venom and poison (in the broad term) operate differently they are both forms of poisoning. The simple fact is that venom, even if it operates differently, *IS* a poison.
This was.. as poorly researched as the movies in question.
In Star Wars' defence, Lightsabers seem to cauterise meaning no bleeding.
Actually, you’d be surprised how difficult it is to hit a moving target in a chaotic environment. While hiding behind a car or table really is useless, running perpendicular to the shooter gives you better than a 70% chance of evasion with a hand gun and better than 50% (I believe that number is correct) with a machine gun.
Also, yes, there might be hard objects in a dumpster but if you really had to, a person could jump out of a 5th story window into a dumpster and not only survive but get out and run away ~ providing he/she actually landed directly in the dumpster and there were no aforementioned objects.

There were some occasions where bibles or smart phones blocked or deflected bullets. And also, Alex Murphy did die.
Dan Powers The probable situation is that they were shot with a 9mm. hollow point, the weakest of all bullets, But If they decide to change to a steel core or a green tip...then pray to god and wish that there's a good surgeon nearby
Teddy Roosevelt was giving a speech in Milwaukee,WI in 19something, and was shot with a .38 I believe. His 50 page plus speech curled up in his breast pocket, along with his glasses case did stop the shot enough that it didn't kill him, but he was still wounded. Even with getting shot he gave his speech, met people, then went and got looked at. The man was a complete bad ass.
There are a lot of bullets much, much weaker than a 9mm bullet.
Zach Clow I must know! (Remember it is hollow point)
I saw a bible at a museum with a shot still stuck in it (from some kind of musket or something), which in a Scottish school equated to the work of God - not the fact it was a weak shot from an old gun travelling a long distance and hitting a massively thick wad of leather and paper tightly compacted between leather armour and a body.
Really surprised that the Indiana Jones' "yeah a refrigerator will totally save you from a nuke" isn't on this list.
L8 Valentine it was a lead lined one which could, but your also gonna have to deal with fallout keeping the door closed while your literally flying and tumbling through th sky and getting smashed against the sides as you come in for a landing . so if the explosion didn't get you, you would have to deal with all that.
***** it's still a giant lie told by a movie isn't it?
darkmyro "likely situations" wasn't part of the title ;) gotcha!
It all really depends on distance and the size of the warhead. At 700 meters, a human being can survive a 14 kiloton nuclear blast if they're protected by something thick, heavy, and radiation shielded- like the armor of a tank. Double the distance, with a lead lined refrigerator, it would certainly increase your chance of survival. As depicted in the movie? Yeah, you're dead, but it's not impossible, and it's certainly better then bending down and kissing your butt goodbye.
+david koonce In the movie, this was a one-off prototype refrigerator built specifically for the nuclear test. It would be reasonable to think the nuke-testing scientists that did the famous "build a house filled with stuff and crash test dummies in the blastzone of a nuke" experiments, would have systematically tested construction variations, such as specially reinforced fridges that could be distributed during peacetime and function as shelters during enemy attacks. Not that much in that movie made sense.
What about how crystal clear the water is in underwater scenes, even in disaster movies where the water would be anything BUT clear.

Björn Eggert Well, it would be useful if you're fighting against Bugblatter Beasts of Traal.

You cannot jump through a plate glass window and not wind up with hundreds of stitches, assuming you don't bleed to death first.
Bad guys do not go flying or even just drop whenever you hit them with a bullet. Most of the time if you are trying to hard stop an opponent, you need to put multiple rounds into them and do it fast. Those times you've heard of a cop putting a dozen rounds into someone, it wasn't the cop being overly exuberant, it was the cop firing the number of rounds that were needed.
You do not survive explosions by virtue of running away from them. Cars do not explode whenever involved in a serious accident, nor to they explode when going over cliffs.
Guns use ammo and the audience can count.
You don't go into battle carrying six or eight firearms, and discard them as they run out of ammo. That doesn't make you a bad ass, it makes you an idiot. You carry one maybe two firearms and plenty of spare ammo magazines.
We do not use only ten percent of our brain, human beings do not make great batteries, you don't cause asteroids to vanish with a nuke, planets don't go 'kaplooee', clones don't inherit memories, you don't bank spaceships in order to turn, etc., etc., etc..

Great name!
Hiding behind a car or a table in a gun fight is better than nothing. The two immediate advantages that come to mind are... 1) -- Assuming the vehicle or table is large enough, it hides you from whomever is shooting at you, which takes away their ability to aim well. 2) -- The more the bullet has to hit before hitting you, the slower it will be going if and when it hits you. *One night, during WWII, Star Trek actor James Doohan, while serving with the Royal Canadian Artillery, was shot **_SIX_** times by a nervous sentry* -- four in the legs, one that took his middle finger of his right hand, and one square in the chest. The first five were survivable, but the one in his chest should have killed him, however... instead of hitting him, the bullet hit his silver cigarette lighter, and that tiny lighter was all the difference between living and dying. So, if you someday accidentally walk into the middle of a gun-battle, or find yourself put into one on purpose... go ahead and hide behind something... it's better than nothing at all.
Star Wars explains the limb thing adequately. The Lightsaber is so hot it actually cauterizes wounds and burns them immediatly shut, hence there is no blood flow. When Luke and Anakin get their arms cut off there is no blood, only burnt flesh. We see Anakin's arm in particular is white hot.
can't jump from a bridge into water and expect to survive.
IS THAT SEXUAL HARASSMENT? If you go in at a perfect 90° to the water, and feet first, you can survive, but your legs will probably be broke to little bits
Triggly Puff some of the jumps I've seen in movies are ridiculous. some jump out of planes thousands of feet in the air into water and they turn out perfectly fine or even from a high bridge. like people think no matter how high you are, as long as you dive you will be fine. but I agree with you also, and the movies don't even show that. They dive into water from a bridge and they are perfectly fine from a swim.
Unless you do it the way they do it in the movies
MrElionor it doesn't matter how you do it, you are still going to splat.

If it moves slowly, you can get quite hurt, but anything even slightly faster can seriously injure you.

emm lightsabers actually cautinize the wounds so you woul'dnt bleed
I was literally about to say that.
That maybe so but you would probably still die from a lightsaber wound since cauterising leaves the wounded person extremely susceptible to infection, which will likely kill you anyway.
goten339 well, Luke was rescued and hospitalized fairly quickly
goten339 first of all nice name, secondly I don't think infections are a problem in the star wars universe
Mary Beth Robertson I suppose he was, he didn't spend too long hanging on to those aerial things from Cloud City did he? Regardless I'd say that the lightsaber cauterising the inflicted wound alone wouldn't save your life and in general... avoid having your limbs hacked off I guess.
yeah, there's no way you can survive having your arm cut off... just ask Aron Ralston!
you can survive having an arm cut off. However, what the presenter is stating is true-if you get a limb lopped off and it is untreated, you risk bleeding to death.

If you ever have to disarm a bomb, but don't know which wire to cut, cut all of them at the same time. Because 1) you'll cut the wire you have to cut no matter which one it is and 2) you'll cut the power source to the detonator. Easy as pie.

Jumping through a window is fine, you won't suffer massive blood loss and/or internal injuries.
People for whom this is new information have obviously never seen The Last Action Hero...
yeah.. batman definately died when he fell while climbing out of that place
The Grim Reaper is afraid of Batman and refuses to come near him.
Excellent video; the editing is marvelous, the linb cutting
sequence is killing me!
Using Star Wars characters as examples of getting limbs chopped off isn't fair. For one thing, we don't know if light sabers would provide enough heat to cauterize the wound and reduce blood loss. Also, these people are in a galaxy far, far away. They look human, but we don't know for sure if their physiology is like ours. Maybe they really can lose a limb and call it a flesh wound.
Lightsabers do produce a lot of heat and they do cauterize wounds.
Furthermore, even if the lightsaber didn't cauterize the wound, surely a Jedi could use The Force to prevent excessive bleeding. If they can move objects, and strangle people, I'm sure it's not unreasonable to suspect they'd be able to essentially apply a telekinetic bandage to their wound so long as the pain doesn't disallow concentration from the act.
No such thing as lightsabers and it's all fictional anyway
Just watched a video recently stating the massive heat from a real lightsaber would not leave a nice, clean, instantly-cauterized wound, but would instead flash boil your flesh and kill you in a disgusting explosion.
on the dismemberment one the star wars is fine because the wound becomes cauterized immediately
I thought the same
top dog, that's handy.
HA! puns...
Luke Skywalker and anakin Skywalker shouldn't die because lightsaber wounds are not like sword wounds because they do not cause blood to spew out from the wound, because lightsabers are awesome. So, if darth Vader cuts your arm off, you will not die from blood loss, you will more likely die from darth Vader finishing the job.
This is one of the most grossly inaccurate videos I've ever seen. Like, how you mix up poison and venom. A snake bite carries venom. Venom, when ingested, typically isn't harmful. It has to go into the bloodstream.
As far as hiding behind things like doors or whatever to avoid getting shot, actually, yes, fucking do that. It may not completely stop an oncoming bullet, but what it will do it slow it down and take away some of the energy from the bullet's momentum and it will be less likely to kill or seriously injure you. More importantly, people have been saved by Bibles stopping bullets. That's not something Hollywood made up. That actually has happened. There's at least two verifiable accounts and several that were claimed and plausible.
Most importantly, you talk about machine guns then bring up AK-47's. An AK-47 is not a machine gun, it's an automatic assault rifle. Then again, I guess I wouldn't have known that either if it weren't for my time in the Army, so I guess I can't knock you too hard for that.
But, still, venom and poison aren't the same. That's the big one.
Can you explain the difference between a machine gun and an automatic assault rifle?
BillyVG I think the message about the table is that it won't save you the way that movies portray.
I would say that the general message of the video is accurate, despite some errors in semantics.
You do make valid points, though.
your mouth is one of the best places to get things Into your bloodstream without cutting yourself. underneath your toung and your gums are like quick access for your blood stream. so ingested may be the wrong word but there not wrong putting venom in your mouth isnt a good idea.
also you don't want to slow a bullet down because a bullet stuck in your body is much worse then it going through your body especially if you cant get immediate medical attention the main reason seekimg cover is a good idea is trying to break line of sight because running a way and leaving yourself wide open is a good way to die. as for the bible yes a bible would stop most bullets because paper with the exception of sand is the best way to stop a bullet funnily enough. and the thing about machine guns and automatic rifles being different things well I did not know that. if you could explain it to me I would be very interested to hear it.
+darmam0o Machines are much larger and heavier (some cannot be carried or fired by a single person alone), can fire larger caliber ammo, and have a faster rate of fire that an assault rifle. Not a gun expert, but that's my take.
I think the original idea for hiding behind something in a gunfight is to make it harder for them to aim at you. It won’t stop the bullet, but they can’t aim for a kill shot
1:32 actually Steve did get hit. You can actually see him clutching his side in the next scene. But since he heals very fast, by the time he pulled the hydra agent out of the river, the bullet scratch is gone.
4:11 Captain America: the Winter Soldier, Steve runs through the upturned bus while being fired at by a machine gun.
5:22 Deadpool can survive anything. Bloke grew half of his body, so these rules are just for us puny humans, not for him.
6:32 That's the reason behind Gwen Stacy's death in the Amazing Spiderman 2
No, Deadpool can regrow all of his body (blew himself up and regrew everything from just a head at the start of the film).
tsss this but a flesh wound
Yes.
***** i know
the reason Batman survived that fall is simple. HE'S BATMAN
People forget that he's superhuman, period. He has all the writers and plot holes on his side, along with exhibiting numerous impossible physical abilities that only look realistic in comparison to the over the top supers in the same issue.
I lol'd at "Jesus, the novel"
im actually a serious follower and i thought it was hilarious myself
I thought it was childish, frankly. You cannot make a presentation without insulting someone's faith? And also put off by the anti-gun comment.
Though someone has already pointed out the idiocy of the venom argument, Number 6 is completely wrong as well. The question of whether or not you survive a lost limb or not is almost entirely dependent on what you do to address the injury in the 5-10 minutes you will have before bleeding out. As someone who has actually lost a limb and had it replaced, I can attest to this as fact. As long as you are intelligent enough to apply a tourniquet immediately, you will probably survive even if it takes several hours (or even a few days) to get medical attention. In my own case I had an accident in which a window cut my arm completely off, just below the elbow (the bone was still intact but the entire non-bone part was cut through). I was still conscious and able to grab a plastic bag on the ground and immediately bind it tight. It helped that a person came to my assistance fairly quickly, and helped me secure the tourniquet. But it was nearly an hour before an ambulance got there. I lost a lot of blood but never even lost consciousness. This isnt a one-off "lucky escape" either. There was even a movie about a guy who cut off his own arm to free himself from being trapped under a boulder. Again, he survived despite needing a day or more before he reached medical professionals.
Lecter, who is a doctor and had a houseful of potential items to use , surely would have had a tourniquet applied in a matter of seconds. Luke had the wound cauterized by a lightsaber, so might not even have needed a tourniquet. The clip included in your video had the guy already tourniquetted up. All three cases would NOT have been life threatening (assuming the person kept their head, and applied a tourniquet.
A few more lies from Hollyweird; about guns-the shooter runs out of ammo with an automatic pistol and it clicks (the sound of the hammer hitting and no discharged round). It DOESN'T CLICK! The slide locks back because the magazine has a stop on it and the hammer cannot move! A revolver will do this but an automatic will not. And a revolver only fire 6 six bullets, not the 83 that Roy Rogers's six shooter fires! Also, and this is a big lie that even politicians believe; suppressors do NOT mute a gun! They drop the decibel level from the level of a gun shot to the level of a jack hammer. Just below the permanent hearing loss threshold. No sneaky assassins with silencers... About police; no, if you ask an officer if he is a cop he does not have to tell you. And yes the charges will stick. No, an officer does not need to read the Miranda warning after putting on the restraints. And yes, the charges will still stick. (Miranda only need be read prior to the beginning of a custodial [under arrest] interview).
What movie was that at 4:06 with the guy getting his leg smashed with a rock?
Darude Sandstorm.
GeeBeeSeeTV the ruins
DarrenCeltic1888 You got a serious answer or are you just gonna troll?
GeeBeeSeeTV the ruins
Thanks
Light saber cuts don't cause bleeding
Because they cauterise wounds immediately.
Sturzam The Saiyan Demon Cauterised or not, the wound would reopen and you would go into shock from blood loss
Guns are really loud, too.
They're loud but I thought Hollywood exaggerated the sound too...
firing a gun regularly in the open let alone in enclosed spaces can cause serious damaging to your hearing. Thats why you wear ear defenders or plugs at least.
Thank you for #9. It always cracks me up when actors duck in their car and they're suddenly safe
Bullets are, in fact, made generally of copper (soft metal) and lead (softer metal). But they puncture through steel, wood, whatever shield you see in movies, based on CONCUSSIVE SHOCK to the surface. The impacted material fragments or bends away from the concussion, leaving a hole through the bullet, though mangled, smashed, or even in pieces continues at a slower rate (compared to muzzle velocity).
Note: mangled, smashed, and fragmented bullets WILL STILL KILL YOU. Just look at hollow point ammunition, it doesn't do it's job until it warps due to smashing into something!
can you really use star wars as a example lol its far from realistic.
Snaggle Toothed based on historical facts.
That's true, but the audience has to draw conclusions about the relative frailty of the characters to themselves and people they know in their reality. If stormtroopers can't shoot for shit, then why are they using guns? Give 'em swords. Damn, I guess they did, at least for the upper-crust types.
@@puncheex2 They shot Leia. They shot the falcon. The shot Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru. They shot the shit out of echo base.
Part of legitimate police training is using your car door for cover in a gunfight. Although not infailable, there's 3" think reinforced steel inside of most modern car doors to protect occupants during collisions.
John Milton as a cop I can assure you taking cover behind a door is not trained and bullets will punch straight through a car door and into the door on the other side.
Unless it's a rare and uber secret type of super cop car, bullets are whizzing strait through.. The only point to hiding behind a door is to try and obscure your location.. Not to provide bullet resistance.. Flat as can be with no cover is better than upright behind a door or tree or wall made of gypsum. I can assure you, even tiny 22LR runs through 1' thick trees, so...
3" thick piece of steel (reinforced, even??) in modern car doors? I call BS.. Prove it. Having worked on tons of cars, modern, and not, I've never seen a 3" thick chunk of any sort of metal.. Let alone reinforced steel.. Even if there were, a high powered rifle would throw bits about. Better by far to have 3-4" of sandbag. Both would make the car get like 2 mpg.. But sand is a better stopper with less thrown pieces.. Or so I've seen in my experience.. Of course, some folks watch too many movies... Maybe I'm that guy.
Not to mention getting shot through metal is preferable to getting shot not-through metal. Slowing down the bullet in any way will make it less dangerous - even if it will still hit you.
3" steel? Cars are built like aluminum cans. Even roll bars were kinda new a few decades ago. Thick steel would be insane for gas mileage, maneuverability, or high energy crashes.
Nicholas Wheeler I think we need myth busters to settle this. Also: the reason those lil Toyota trucks crush like tin cans in a crash is because they don't have the 3" reinforced steel inside of the doors.
Jesus: The Novel. XD
I work in a foundry melting aluminum. The blast furnaces are 3200°. Standing even 10ft from an opening without protection can lead to heat related injuries. I'm talking heat exhaustion to the point of collapse.
Loved the ode to Adam the ‘Blampy’ Miss that guy!!!
Snake venom is not poisonous to ingest...just sayin'
Tosh Outdoors yeah kinda weird that it was included. When we used to camp a lot in az we had a snakebite kit that included this suction thing. To suck the venom out. So yes if you get immediate suction on the bite you can help someone. And no its not gonna hurt you unless you have an open wound in your mouth.
well not all snake, but you mostly correct, except rattle, some viper, black mamba, king cobra, and some other perfectly lethal snake bite, most venom from snake is harmless for digestion
Notice me what culture. NOOOTTTTIIIICEEE MEEEEEEEE
M16's aren't machine guns they are assault rifles
And there's a difference between SMG's and MG's. Mostly bad guys use SMG's of rifles.
NerdyLoki44 no such thing as a assault rifle idiot. They are machine guns.
Machine guns are weapons like SAWs BARs M60s Mini Guns, M134D M2 .50BMG etc. Sub guns are smaller: Uzi MP5 MAC 10 etc.
@@chaseviking5096 Wow. You went from post to post to make a fool of yourself getting that wrong?
Full automatic fire is called spray and pray for a reason. After Vietnam the Army revised their tactics and went back to semiauto fire. The German's understoid this when they developed the Sturmgewhr 44. Automatic fire was for supression only. The Sturmgewhr was to be used as a semiautomatic rifle like the M-1 most of the time. So you really do have a higher probability of surviving the inaccurately fired machine gun.
Nearly every example you gave for the Bomb Defusing portion was ironically a scene where the bomb was NOT defused and either later blew up, was forced to detonate, or otherwise remained active. The one scene from Armageddon was a bomb that actually was designed to be easy to disarm if you had the proper codes.
This list as much as it is trying to be "Clever" and tell off movies for being "Wrong" gets a number of things wrong itself. First of all Snakes don't inject poison, they inject Venom. Next, in the case of Star Wars characters getting their limbs cut off by lightsabers, for the most part, they cauterise the wounds and stop bleeding from taking place (Though the scene in the canteen is considered a error now). And in the case of Robocop, he actually did die from his own limb getting blown off, the rest were taken off surgically. And lastly, in Lethal Weapon 2, the bomb in that scene had no timer and no wires were cut to diffuse it. Liquid nitrogen was used to freeze it as best as possible to slow it down to give the officer enough time to jump into a cast iron bathtub covered with bomb blankets. So gotta give these movies some credit and not just shit on them when you too made some errors.
The canteen scene isn't an error. Anyone who considers it so isn't very bright.
@@flacidhouse350 How's that? There was blood where its now canon there wold not be. And the arm was the wrong arm altogether. It was the Lak Sivrak's arm as opposed to Ponda Baba's.
@@gutz1981 Ponda Boba isn't human and his "Blood" isn't like your blood. It was Ponda Boba's arm. You can tell by the way it came off him.
@@flacidhouse350 Doesn't matter where it came from. What matters it looks nothing like it did before it got chopped off. And that goes for fingers and the extra fur.
@@flacidhouse350 FFS why am I wasting my time with you. Its clear you are not all there.
I've never learned so much from Jules before. All the rest of his videos have taught me that my mom loves him too frequently and that he's got a lot of puns.
1. Bullets don't "tend to be made out of hard metal." Bullets, discounting armor penetrating rounds, are made out of lead which is a very soft metal.
2. Books actually are pretty good at stopping standard pistols rounds. A thick bible, for instance, would have a pretty good chance at stopping a typical bullet of the most common pistols rounds. Mythbusters actually used half phone books as armour and other than the .50 BMG, they stopped everything.
3. "Any contact with poison is going to have consequences and putting it in your mouth where it can be ingested is a quick recipe for disaster" Snakes DO NOT INJECT POISON! This goes for spiders, bees, etc; they inject venom. The difference being that venom must be injected in to the blood steam. If you swallow a typical "bite's worth" of rattlesnake venom or just swallow an entire black widow, as long as it didn't bite you in the process, you are almost certainly going to be fine (a poison dart frog on the hand . . . )
4. Untrained people are a lot less accurate with guns than you think. Some of it is that, possibly due to movies, people who don't own guns may underestimate just how hard it is to hit a moving target like a person, especially with something like a handgun, from ranges even as short 5-10 meters. Add on top of that that you are being fired upon at the same time. Plus, the vast majority of people don't want to kill anyone. While the specific number may be off a little, it is said that only about 2% of soldiers shoot to kill. They tend to intentionally miss, whether they know that is what they are doing or not. Over the past century modern nations have changed their military training and have almost entirely gotten rid of this issue. As a result, when going up against untrained militias as we did in Somalia, U.S. troops hit the enemy with ease but the far more numerous Somalians missed well over 99% of the time despite using MACHINE GUNS. If you watch the movie Black Hawk Down, the inaccuracy of the Somalians is pretty well represented.
Overall: your video on "lies told by movies" is you telling a bunch of lies.
"Falling from extreme heights doesn't matter as long as you land in water" I can't believe you guys forgot that one. It happens in EVERY action movie
The fuel pump shutoff in cars. In most cases, a car’s fuel pump is disabled in collision, so the car will not keep running, and it also won’t burst into flames!
Hollow point rounds are not meant for penetration, so yes a lot of things can cause them to break apart on impact. That's the reason cops use them that way they don't go through whoever they shoot at
The FBI protocol or barrier tests say a handgun caliber bullet fired from a modern sidearm should punch thru 12"-18" of a common barrier: wood, auto glass, denim fabric, metal. Many brands like Hornady Critical Duty, Speer Gold Dot, Winchester Ranger T, DPX can do it.
@@DavidLLambertmobile But, with hollow points specifically, when they enter flesh, muscle, hit bone, deal with the resistance of clothing and internals, eventually the bullet will have shattered sufficiently enough to prevent overwhelming penetration there after. It also depends on the caliber of bullet, the range, the velocity, and the length of the barrel of the firearm.
@@zagorith14 Yeah, the specific point of hollow points is that the penetrate less and distribute the maximum amount of momentum through the target with a wider impact zone.
As long as the booby trap isn't itself booby trapped than it can be VERY easy to disable a bomb depending on how it's made.
1. Pull out blasting cap
2. Put something between cap and explosive (just in case).
3. Cut wire.
Without a blasting cap you can throw a block of C4 into a fire and it WILL NOT BLOW UP!
C4 isn't much of a weapon though. It's more of a tool.
Here's one you missed: EXPLOSIONS DON'T KILL YOU; SHRAPNEL/FRAGMENTATION DOES.
Even many "realistic" films love to show military battles or fire fights with explosions going off all around our heroes. Maybe they're in a warzone and the area is being shelled or maybe someone just tossed a grenade. In most of these films, the movie logic seems to be that as long as someone isn't touched by the flames of an explosion, they'll just be safely blown aside by the blast or ignore it entirely.
In the real world, the little pieces of metal that fly in all directions out from the explosion are what's going to tear your body to shreds. Nevertheless, movies still love to show deadly explosions happening around a character who just ends up a little dusty. It's kind of like the lava example but it happens way more frequently.
Perhaps the biggest problem with this is that it gives us a sanitized, action-hero perception of war in which a battle is like a fireworks show instead of a hellish experience in which men are frequently blown into pieces.
Two of my favorite relevant scenes from books: 1. A scene in a supernatural thriller where one of the heros gets hit in the head and knocked out, and it looks like everything is going to be fine like usual in these stories, only then he dies of a concussion. 2. A scene in a scifi novel where a guy sucks poison out of someone's wound and has to be treated for poisoning because he did that stupid thing.
#1: to be fair, while the point about clocks and wire color coding is quite valid, the idea that bombs are "nothing to worry about" is certainly not borne out in the film. It's an incredibly tense period in the film, and Riggs' insanity/loyalty are highlighted by the fact he chooses to stay with Murtaugh. Yes, it all works out in the end. No, it isn't played off as some simple, easy-to-defeat measure, free from drama and risk.
