Line 33:
* [[Disney Ducks Comic Universe|Scrooge McDuck]] has always been known for swimming in his money. In the Carl Barks story, "Only A Poor Old Man", the Beagle Boys manage to legally get his cash, leading Scrooge to lament how he won't be able to indulge in his hobby. After giving a demonstration, the old duck offers that the Boys try it themselves. The Beagles dive in, and immediately knock themselves out on the pile of coins. When Huey, Dewey and Louie bring up the [[Fridge Logic]], Scrooge remarks, "I'll admit- It's a trick!"
* ''[[The Flash]]'' has the Speed Force, a dimension that is also apparently a prison and a mass vaporizer. And just an all-around way for speedsters to tell the laws of physics to sit down and shut up.
** Amusingly, there actually ''is'' a measure of valid physics in it. All of the violations of physics that the Flash is involved in are ultimately different flavors of violating Conservation of Energy... but Conservation of Energy only applies in closed systems, and the entire point of the Speed Force is that he's shunting mass/energy into and out of another dimension which means that the Flash is no longer operating in a closed system.
* Probably not attributable to the original creators, but a Finnish ''[[Superman]]'' magazine once answered the question in reader mail about how Superman can fly: It's just like how we walk. He activates the muscles used for flying. And now you know!
