What is truth in film?

We blindly believe whatever the movies show us. Many times after the film is over, one realizes that what one saw was not so true.

In any film crime scene, it is easily shown that if a gun is recovered from the spot, there will definitely be fingerprints on it.

How much truth is there in films? Some lies that we easily believe

The sound that comes when a sword comes out of its sheath

War and period films are quite in trend. If you like these movies, then you must have heard that sound… when the hero takes out the sword from its sheath. To produce such a sound, the sheath must be made of metal. And if the sheath is made of metal, then you can understand that it can leave marks on your body. Therefore, the truth is that in fencing, the sheath is mostly made of leather or wood, due to which there is no such filmy sound when the sword is taken out.

Insert the sword directly into the body and finish the job

Inserting a sword directly into someone’s body and then the sword coming out straight away, this can happen only in films. Actually this is not possible. When you thrust soft, glowing hot metal into a person’s body, the sword is more likely to bend rather than go straight through. Even if it does not bend, you will not get a straight shining sword when you take it out.

Shoot a gun at two villains from a moving vehicle

There is no magical power in a gun bullet, the gun bullet is also affected by the force of gravity, like all other things.

Render unconscious by inhaling chloroform

As soon as a person inhales chloroform, a person does not become unconscious immediately nor does he remain unconscious for hours. kidnapping of heroine or robbery of bank is often shown by inhaling chloroform.

Inhaling chloroform can render a person unconscious for only a few minutes. To keep him unconscious for hours, you will have to smell chloroform for more than about 5 minutes.

Save the mother or the child

Often, whenever there is a scene of delivery of a child and complications arise, in our films the doctor or nurse often stands in front of the hero with a big question. Along with this question, they have a medical form on which the hero has to sign and also tell whether he wants to save the child or the mother. Then the hero emotionally agrees to save the mother. Whereas the reality is that according to the law, in such a situation, the doctor has to save the mother.

System gets hacked within minutes

As it is often shown in films that any hacker can hack any system in a short time, whereas in reality this is not the case. Do you know that it can take hours, weeks or sometimes even months for any professional hacker to hack any system.

Silencer means no sound at all

A silencer does not mean that the gun fired and there was no sound at all. Whenever gunpowder explodes, it makes a lot of noise. With a silencer, that loud sound is only reduced, but it does not happen that the gun is fired and there is no sound at all. It definitely makes enough sound that the people around can hear it.

Shoot the gun at the lock and break the lock

There are many film scenes when the hero shoots a gun at a locked lock and the lock breaks. Believe me, this is a film scene and has nothing to do with reality. Gun bullets are usually made of soft lead and most locks are made of hard stainless steel. Trying to open these locks with a handgun can have completely adverse results. It is possible that it may become difficult for you to open that lock or instead of opening the lock, some other kind of damage may occur nearby. However, it is still possible to do this to some extent with a shotgun.
