22 of the Most Cartoonish Situations People Have Witnessed

Part of the joy of watching cartoons is seeing unlikely characters defy the laws of physics in ways that seem impossible in reality. But according to these Redditors, Looney Tunes-style antics aren’t exclusive to the animated world.

One such Redditor recalled a time that he went skiing with his then-girlfriend. They were taking it slow down the bunny slope, but that didn’t prevent her from catching a little momentum and hitting a tree head-on. As if colliding face-first into a tree wasn’t funny enough, he said that both of her arms and legs went straight out on impact and she slid down the tree ever so slowly — much like our friend Wile E. Coyote after he’s been bested by the Road Runner. 

Beep, beep!

Other Redditors have shared the absolutely cartoonish things they’ve witnessed in real life, like a plumber dangling through a ceiling and someone who actually fell victim to a dangerous banana peel, and it’s beautiful that our actual, non-animated surroundings can be so wacky.

So cartoonish you would expect to see tweety-birds and stars circling her head. 9 ...
