*** According to the live-action spinoff movie, you can't die before the Death Note's schedule.
**** Two rules are at work here. One is the 12 minute rule, which states that anyone with less then 12 minutes left cannot be affected. The other rule states that the death note cannot lengthen the persons lifespan beyond their original. The person getting shot was the originally destined death, and the death note was powerless to lengthen the victim's life. But if the person had more than 12 minutes left, and the lifespan was shortened already, perhaps it would avert the currently fated death.
* Say [[Family Guy|Lois Griffin]] is in a desert (trip, or whatever) and Stewie writes in his death note that Lois drowns, and yes, [[Great Pikmin Fan|this troper]] knows that deserts are not always [[Shifting Sand Land|shifting sand lands]], the term "desert" means "a place where it rarely rains", but the desert ''is'' a SSL, would the note count that as impossible?
** No, the Death Note has a 23 day window to work in.
* What happens if someone writes "gets crushed by a molecule of air" as a cause of death?
