You can ride your motorbike as fast as you can, jump and fly through the air upside-down and when you land, inertia do not affect at all, instead your bike stops immediately and melts to the asphalt and same happens to you. Then, one second later you can rise up unharmed and hitchike a ride. (Eddie Kidd´s Jump Challenge)
When you reborn, millions of colourful stars will fly at unbelievable speed through the space and you will hear hissing noise, which will get louder and louder nearer you get your birth. (Maxima)
You can skate amidst audience if you are ice hockey player. (Slapshot)
Fast ultra-hi-tech fighter planes does not come with missiles. (Maybe all money went to hi-tech development) Instead you must blast enemy air force with your gun from the dangerously short distance. (Time Bandits)
All what arabs want to do, is to make you for their slave and every arab want to kill you. (where I have heard this crap before...?) (Turmoil, Bug-Byte)
If you want to become a boxer, be sure that your boxing trousers release lots of colour if they touch anything, even if they are dry. (3D Knock-Out)
If you ever want to become laundry owner, be sure that you can live with alive flat iron, clothes bag and wild soap bubbles, knowing they all hate you and will chase you until they catch you. (Mr Wong´s Loopy Laundry)
Having fun with Light Synthesizer is FUN!  (Psychedelia)
When you go underground and start collecting gold, you start hearing peaceful music in the air and you can set it louder or quieter, if you want.  But beware dangerous monsters who all walk backwards or you cannot rescue your love, bare titted woman with long black hair and fishtail. (Mutant Monty)
There´s spider´s web everywhere!! Behind every fruit, and that big spider comes to eat you when you are unconscious! (Buzz Off!)
Don´t know why, but one male penguin got strange idea, that generations ago all penguins lived in North Pole and decides to go there and search for apple tree which grows amidst the cold, cold ice. (Penguin Adventure)
You can shoot thousands of punks and other criminals and police-men are just happy even if they see what you are doing and gladly let you continue your mission. But be sure that you have moustache and bulletproof vest and that your parents have named you either Paul Kersey or Charles Bronson. I am not sure if later name change has same effect. (Death Wish 3)
