cartoon physics

This is someting i found out exist during a lect todae (wow, someting tt is actualli interesting in lectures).
This also happen to be someting so trivial n yet taken so seriously.
So cartoon physics according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartoon_physics frm wikipedia is a joking reference to the fact that animation allows regular laws of physics to be ignored in humorous ways for dramatic effects. For example, when a cartoon character runs off a cliff, gravity has no effect until the character notices and reacts.

n then theres Anvilology which is the study of (cartoon) physical principles of anvils, as studied at "Acme Looniversity" in the animated series, Tiny Toons.

* Everything falls faster than an anvil (so that the evil character can hit the ground first and then be crushed, but not killed, by the anvil).
* Anvils are readily available.
* Anvils can stay in the air until noticed by a character, at which point they fall on the character.

cartoon collision physics and law of cartoon dynamics also exists.

i love this world man. i wonder y.
