Happy Tree Friends and Real Life

Many cartoons are known to recreate everyday situations or scenarios by altering real-life logic, thus making the scenes look ridiculous and unpredictable. While Happy Tree Friends sometimes follows real-life logic, it is popular for turning ordinary situations into gruesome deaths and injuries which simply cannot happen in the real world.

Below are instances where characters have experienced deaths or injuries which, in real life, would have turned out very differently.

Buns of Steal: Lifty's veins and arteries tied to two trucks push his neck against a tree.

Giggles

Episode & Scenario(s)	Real Life	Happy Tree Friends File:Faceless.jpg

He eats a rotten egg and vomits.	1. It's impossible for any animal's throat to swallow numerous Easter eggs at once and even without chewing, it can choke them to death.

Secondly, the constrictor boas can't wrap around someone and crush him/her within seconds. In third place, the constrictor boas can't crush someone until they make his/her eyes pop out. 3. There's no way someone can sink in a flat liquid surface.	1. He eats numerous Easter eggs at once without chewing them first and he's not affected in any way. As there were chicks inside the eggs, they burst out of his stomach, removing his intestines in the process. 2.

Petunia's Summer Smoochie: Attacked by a large shark in her pool. A pinwheel spins in her face. Water gets stuck in a hose.	A shark that size could never fit in a small pool. Pinwheels, even while spinning, are incapable of killing someone, although Petunia's face would have been slightly injured. The hose would have burst from that amount of water.

Petunia gets impaled by the dotted lines of the imaginary heart and killed by the love arrow. (Assuming that Mime's imaginary possessions are indeed not real.)
Royal Flush: Her eye and organs are sucked out and head is filled with air by a vacuum.	The vacuum should have been more powerful to have pulled out her eye, and she should have bloated over time. In addition to this, a vacuum cannot get stuck on an eye	Her eye and organs get sucked out, she is bloated quickly and explodes in only seconds.
I Nub You: Window suddenly closes and slices her arms off. Then she and Handy are crushed by the pinsetter.	Window would cause some pain to her arms but not cut them off.

Pinsetter moves so fast that it crushed both Petunia and Handy into pins.
Camp Pokeneyeout: She is hit by her own slingshot.	The Slingshot would have hit her face and she would have suffered a bruise. It would take a lot more force to kill her as depicted in the episode.	She lets go off her slingshot, impaling her eyes.

Handy

Episode & Scenario(s)	Real Life	Happy Tree Friends
Shard at Work: Gets fishbowl on his head.	There is no way in logic a fishbowl can be placed over Handy's head. It would of just bounced off of his head and give him a bruise.	The fishbowl is on his head, and he can't get it off, and he suffocates due to lack of oxygen.

Nutty's Party Smoochie: Burnt by the combusting yo-yo. He is soon choked by balloons.	There is no way a yo-yo could do this in reality. Nutty would only be slightly choked and would not be able to be carried in the air.	The yo-yo grinds Nutty's crotch and eventually burns him when it combusts. He is hanged and killed by the balloons after being lifted too high to reach scissors.
Ipso Fatso: Receives pieces of glass to him	Would be widely injured. Pieces of glass can not do as much damage.	Cut in tattered by the pieces of glass.
Easy Comb, Easy Go: Gets impaled by a water sprinkler.	The sprinkler would have simply hit him.	The sprinkler impales his head and sprinkles out his blood.
Icy You: Stumbled into a sharp hook. Head is caught in an automatic door.	Would have hit it, maybe gotten a cut. An automatic door isn't strong enough to splatter someones head, the door shouldn't have even shut since they don't close if someone is standing in between	Bursts like a balloon because of his overweight body. His head is crushed by the door.
A Sight for Sore Eyes: A metal "paper" airplane flies into Nutty's eyes; the plane later hits a kite and ties the kite around Nutty.	He would have been hit by the metal plane (if it could even exist in reality). The kite's string would not be able to cut up Nutty's body, possibly it would make him fall over.	His pupils are cut off; the kite's string splits Nutty into pieces after wrapping around him.
Random Acts of Silence: Flippy puts his arm into a pencil sharpener.	It is not possible for a whole arm to fit in a pencil sharpener.	Nutty is shredded to death by the pencil sharpener.
Dunce Upon a Time: Eats jelly beans.	It is virtually impossible for seeds/beans to grow inside a body. Jelly beans would definitely have no effect on the consumer.

Sniffles

Episode & Scenario(s)	Real Life	Happy Tree Friends
Various episodes where he is sadistically killed by the ants.	No type of ant could do this kind of damage - ants may eat their prey by swarming all over them, but it is very unlikely they would attack a grown anteater. However, the ants' in the series may be exempt from this due to their anthropomorphic traits.	Sniffles ends up being killed by the ants anyway.
Crazy Ant-ics: One of The Ants pours a mini oil can on Sniffles' tongue and throws the can away down his throat. Then, another one of The Ants lights his tongue with a match.	Let's imagine that the miniature oil cans exist. In the first place, if it's spilled all the way through Sniffles' tongue and thrown away down his throat, he can choke on the can and the oil in his tongue would probably intoxicate him. In the second place, if a match lights up his tongue the fire can't make combustion with the oil if it's spilled over a wet surface like an animal's tongue and, for the worst, it can slightly burn his tongue and wipe off in a mere milliseconds.	One of the Ants pours the can all the way through Sniffles' tongue and throws it away down his throat, making it to his stomach. Another ant lights up his tongue, causing the fire to spread all over it until his stomach, and Sniffles' upper half explodes.
Treasure Those Idol Moments: The Cursed Idol curses Sniffles, making him sink in quicksand.	In real life, there's no such thing as a "cursed idol" due to the fact that the curses don't exist. Even if the curses and cursed idols existed, it would take Sniffles a long time to entirely sink in the quicksand. This gives him many time to think how to escape them or even find someone to ask help to.	The Cursed Idol causes Sniffles to sink in quicksand in a mere seconds, without any chance of saving himself nor asking someone to get him out. (This is probably an effect of the curse.)
Tongue Twister Trouble: Gets his entire tongue scratched off by a cat, then pulled into the icy water and frozen solid.	First, there is no way a cat could claw off a tongue in one swipe. Secondly, Sniffles would have drowned, it would take a long period of time for him to freeze.	The cat claws off his tongue, and he gets frozen in a block of ice.
Ski Kringle: He and Toothy are hit by Lumpy's skis.	Would have been knocked over.	Impaled by the skis.
Wingin' It: A food cart gets tilted toward him.	Would have been hit by the food cart.	The food cart slices and crushes his body.

Moppin Up: Slips and falls on the wet mopped floor.	Would simply have slipped on the floor and only be hurt slightly.	His head cracks open.
Class Act: Nutty bites his arm off.	No one's teeth could be strong enough to bite off a complete arm. Sniffles would at least get a small bleeding.	His entire arm is bitten off.
Random Acts of Silence: Impaled by pencils from behind.	Pencils are too weak for this kind of damage. Sniffles would have just been poked, or slightly bleed, depending on how sharp the pencils were.	The pencils are forced through the back of his skull and impale his eyes.
Concrete Solution: Bumps his face into the steering wheel when his ambulance crashes into a car.	Depending on how hard he crashed, he may have been knocked out.	His face gets crushed by slamming into the wheel.
Idol Curiosity: In an attempt to escape the Idol's curse, he jumps onto a chandelier after he catches Sniffles.	Since curses don't exactly exist, Sniffles would've been fine, except he would of had no way out, depending on the type, the chandelier would've possibly broke off.	The Idol catches him and he is cut in half after he jumps onto the chandelier.
Something Fishy: Is hit by a flag.	He would be hit by Russell's flag.	His head is horizontally sliced in half.

Mime to Five: Flies into Cuddles' intestines.	Flaky would have split through Cuddles' intestines, but at the distance she fell, she wouldn't have enough speed bouncing back up to even reach the intestine.	Bisected in half by Cuddles' intestines.
Party Animal: Flaky's body and lips gets bloated from an allergic reaction to peanuts.	Flaky's body and lips would only bloat slightly. And a sharp object could not pop her like a balloon. At the worst, she would have a bleeding eye.	Her body is bloated like a balloon and then gets popped by a needle.
Flaky's Baseball Smoochie: Hit by a baseball to the eye. Torso area hit by a ball after being electrocuted. Face covered by bubblegum.	Would have been slightly injured, or possibly gotten a black eye, depending on how hard it was thrown. Being struck by lightning could not burn her enough to be reduced to ashes. She would have gotten the gum off easily.	The eyeball with the black eye around it splatters out like a fountain. Her upper half is burnt to ashes then bumped off by a ball. She suffocates to death.
Royal Flush: Trips over a mat that Mr. Pickels pulls under her and trips onto a plunger.	Would have hit the plunger.	Impaled in the mouth by the plunger.

Pop

Episode & Scenario(s)	Real Life	Happy Tree Friends
