Physics are completely different than what they told you in school. For example, collisions between objects are always determined by rectangles that are invisible to the naked eye, and these rectangles may or may not intuitively follow the shape of the visible object.

Funny enough, This is pretty plausible IRL.

I didn't believe this until I saw a link (I cannot remember what it was). It basically broke down how much punishment the body can take before collapsing. If the shot isn't a headshot or the caliber of the bullet isn't big enough, they have a chance to keep on coming until shock kicks in.

Pokemon taught me that no matter what you accomplish, in the end you look like a prick with a medal.

Some Final Fantasy games taught me you can only trust yourself. Because when you level others, they might end up disappearing when it's important!

Baiten Kaitos taught me to never trust yourself.

Dragon Ball Z games taught me things can only be tampered with so much (Really, the series have been redone SO much).

And video games as a whole, I've noticed that school doesn't really influence your ability to survive a zombie attack. Really. I haven't run into a lot of games where education can kill the final boss.

The biggest lesson we learn from video games:

Violence can solve ALL your problems, without fail.
Well, unless it's a story battle you're supposed to lose.
