Aunt May gets thrown off the building by OCK.
So I have this physics project where I have to find clips where the laws of physics are ignored or exaggerated. I remembered the scene on top of the building in Spiderman 2 where Ock throws Aunt May off the building and then Spiderman saves her with his web. Does my memory serve me right? And is this a plausable clip to present?

know cos spider web is like ten times stronger than steel of the same thickess. a good one would be the scene in resident evil apocalypse where alice is running down the side of that huge building. or in x men when magneto controls the copper in the statue of liberty
Yeah and the impact of the fall would kill her.She's an old frail woman.
"The 300 p.s.i. pressure in each cartridge is sufficient to force a stream of the complex web pattern an estimated 60 feet (significantly farther if shot in a ballistic parabolic arc)."
Go with Star Wars, they have all kind of stuff in the movies that could't atually be real. first of all as someone said there would be no sound in space. (austraunats can communicate in space only because there is air in their helmets.). One of the other things would be smoke in space, like when ships explode in episode III. There can be no smoke in space. And also when the Grevious flagship started to accelerate towards the planet after being damaged, that wouldn't happen in real life. ( in real life it would just stay in space.) and thats all only from the space battle in the beginning of episode III.

What springs to mind in Spider-man 2 is the fight scene on the train. In the scene, Spider-man goes flying forward (toward the front of the train)and barely manages to squeeze through the metal slits in the bridge. He then comes out on the other end and goes flying straight into Doc Ock.
This totally defies the laws of Physics because an object being thrown from a moving vehicle would go as fast as the speed of the moving object PLUS the speed of the throw.
SO, in this case, Spider-man would land on the train waaaaaaaay up in front of the train (or he might have overshot the train completely). This is because he is already moving as fast as the train (he is on it) and Doc Ock flings him with additional speed... so his "true" speed is the speed of the train plus the speed he is thrown.
Even accounting for air friction, I doubt he'd land on top of Ock (he should land much further in front of Ock).
I hope I'm explaining this well enough. You definitely want to check me, but I'm pretty confident about it.
Good luck!
