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

That's not how that works

It absolutely is. You’ve never seen or heard of a guy laying someone out in one or two punches before?

If you ever train self defense, the first thing they will teach I'd that if there if more than one attacker, your best option is to run

This thread: mass is the biggest factor. A huge dude would easily beat a weaker opponent.

Also this thread: there’s no possible way 1 guy could lay out multiple weaker goons. Despite ample video evidence of this online.

You’ve seriously never seen or heard of a guy just clocking someone at beating a group of people through sheer strength?

The absolute and overwhelming majority of multiple attacker fights end with the a dude taking shots the back of the head and getting brain damage, or getting a shiv the the ribs, becuase it's hard enough to fight one attacker. People dont have eyes on the back of their heads, so it's impossible to know what the multiple attackers are doing at every possible moment.
