25 Things You Would Never Know Without The Movies
- All beds have special L-shaped cover sheets which reach up to the armpit level on a
woman but only to waist level on the man lying beside her.
- It's easy for anyone to land a plane providing there is someone in the control tower to
talk you down.
- The ventilation system of any building is the perfect hiding place. No-one will ever
think of looking for you in there and you can travel to any other part of the building you
want without difficulty.
- During all police investigations it will be necessary to visit a strip club at least
once. The star stripper is usually a significant witness.
- You're very likely to survive any battle in any war unless you make the mistake of
showing someone a picture of your sweetheart back home.
- Should you wish to pass yourself off as a German officer, it will not be necessary to
speak the language. A German accent will do.
- The Eiffel Tower can be seen from any window in Paris.
- A man will show no pain while taking the most ferocious beating but will wince when a
woman tries to clean his wounds.
- If a large pane of glass is visible, someone will be thrown through it before long.
- When paying for a taxi, don't look at your wallet as you take out a bill just grab one
at random and hand it over. It will always be the exact fare.
- Kitchens don't have light switches. When entering a kitchen at night, you should open
the fridge door and use that light instead.
- If staying in a haunted house, women should investigate any strange noises in their most
revealing underwear.
- Mothers routinely cook eggs, bacon and waffles for their family every morning even
though their husband and children never have time to eat it.
- The Chief of Police will always suspend his star detective - or give him 48 hours to
finish the job.
- A single match will be sufficient to light up a room the size of RFK Stadium.
- Medieval peasants had perfect teeth.
- Any person waking from a nightmare will sit bolt upright and pant, and then have sex.
- All bombs are fitted with electronic timing devices with large red readouts so you know
exactly when they're going to go off.
- It is always possible to park directly outside the building you are visiting.
- It does not matter if you are heavily outnumbered in a fight involving martial arts -
your enemies will wait patiently to attack you one by one by dancing around in a
threatening manner until you have knocked out their predecessors.
- When a person is knocked unconscious by a blow to the head, they will never suffer a
concussion or brain damage.
- No-one involved in a car chase, hijacking, explosion, volcanic eruption or alien
invasion will ever go into shock.
- Police Departments give their officers personality tests to make sure they are
deliberately assigned a partner who is their total opposite. If members of the opposite
sex, they will more often than not begin a sexual relationship before the case is solved.
This improves their investigative powers.
- You can always find a chainsaw when you need one.
- Any lock can be picked by a credit card or a paper clip in seconds unless it's the door
to a burning building with a child trapped inside.
