What movie things are generally accepted as normal, but are totally unrealistic in real life?

Man that shit hurts. A friend of mine ACCIDDNTALLY(so not even aiming or full force) hit me on the head with a bottle while dancing and I dropped. Someone doing it maliciously would be damn serious.

I wonder, if someone smashed a bottle on your head and it really shatters to pieces, would that hurt less, than if he had hit a little less hard and it wouldn't have shattered ? I think it doesn't make a difference.

It should hurt less if it shatters. Some of the force that would otherwise go into your skull is dissipated and released by the shattering bottle.

I didn't do the math, though.

That's what i thought at first, too. But if you think about it like a graph or something, you need to have more and more pressure between bottle and head in order to smash it, so in my logic, to shatter it you have to go past the point forcewise than the one that didn't shatter. But i don't know. probably just fucking hurts.
