Arnie's 10 Point Guide To Being A Total Badass

8. The Laws Of Physics Are For Girly Men

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vd1kzNBt4f4 One of my favourite all-time Arnie moments comes when, after a protracted chase through a mall and the LA highways, John Matrix catches up with Sully, the lecherous henchman who knows where his kidnapped daughter, Jenny, is. Matrix eventually catches up to him after running his car off the road, and proceeds to dangle him over a steep cavern, doing so with one hand. The scene is all the more amusing because Matrix even lectures Sully on the idea of gravity as he holds him over the precipice, yet appears to completely ignore a basic scientific notion himself; the idea of a center of gravity. Arnie's center of gravity doesn't change one bit, and he's still able to stand perfectly upright despite holding a(n admittedly rather diminutive) man at arm's length over a cliff edge. Arnie's so badass that he doesn't need things like science; they only slow him down.
