Recommended Videos

We’ve all wondered what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object — like if you ran a train into a mountain that didn’t have and Acme-brand train hole painted through it, or if Superman tried to push over The Hulk. Well, the science-savvy cartoonists at MinutePhysics are back to address that burning question. No, not the Superman/Hulk one — that’s a battle for another day. Instead, they lay out what things like immovable, unstoppable, and force actually mean, and offer up their best guesses at what the result would be — which is more than a little surprising. Get a load of it in your Friday morning dose of cartoon science below.
