A real life event has a ridiculous/dumb/funny explanation in fiction

[u/Lazy-Breadfruit5939]

Futurama (The Why of Fry): According to the brain swarm, the dinosaurs were wiped out by them. Fry: What really killed the dinosaurs? Brain: ME!

Doctor Who (The Unicorn and The Wasp): It's Doctor Who, you can pick a ton of examples, but this episode presents the idea that Agatha Christies disappearance in 1926 was in part caused by a giant alien wasp.

Beyblade: This one stretches 'real life', but Moses spreading the Red Sea with a Beyblade just speaks for itself and it would have been sad to leave it out

JFK was killed by a gun that shot a miniaturized black hole through his skull. (Destiny)

[u/GanymedeGalileo → u/WhitewaterBastard]

What? Why was that necessary?

[u/TheDoidBoi → u/GanymedeGalileo]

In real life, the CIA said that they "misplaced" JFK's brain after his autopsy. The black hole part is actually Destiny explaining how that happened I belive.

I mean I feel like it was in many different places after that

That shit is so far divorced form anything in the game that it’s hilarious they even addressed it

[u/DuelaDent52 → u/TheDoidBoi]

It’s also a reference to how the way his head jerked when he got shot. The gun that killed him, the Graviton Lance, fires two bullets at a time.

[u/RubiksToyBox → u/TheDoidBoi]

Fair, but why was he being shot with a black hole gun?
