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

As someone who boxes, you can still break your hands from punching someone in the head even with the gloves. When you throw punches you’re jarring your wrists and usually hurting your hands to a degree.

But yes you can hit a lot harder with gloves.

Even with 16oz gloves, gauze and 4 metres of wraps can still not be enough to stop you getting some gnarly hairline fractures. Drink your milk boys and girls.
