Are heavy objects falling on people's heads funny?
Concussions are not a joke. They are very scary things.

Depends on multiple factors, though I'd say what the heavy object happens to be, plus the sound effect it makes upon impact with the target would be the most important. Pic related, perfection.
>>90214102
Only with good soundeffect
Gotta have a good lead-up, as well as what >>90214166 said. Good sound design goes a long mile, but proper etiquette for jokes really brings it out best.
>>90214102
Only if it's 16 tons.
>>90214102
Certainly, if the comedic timing and context are right.
>>90214102
As long as it's not my head, yes. Always.
>The joke was originally people getting crushed by things such as pianos and safes that New York City residents were having lifted into their apartment via crane
>Someone decided to subvert the gag with an anvil "what if someone was actually blacksmithing in their NYC flat?"
>Now anvils dropping on people for no reason is supposed to be automatic comedy with no context
>>90214102
Timing is everything.
"No, NO. Wait 'till he gets to his feet, THEN hit him with the boulder!"
>>90217322
I thought it was because anvils are pure heavy.
>>90214102
If the right build-up is there. You can't just use it anytime and expect it to get instant laughs
>>90214102
Yes, very funny.
If your cartoon does not have this then please do your project in live action.
>>90217454
It's this, it was all about being funny.

The best.

Don't you have a children's soccer match to go to?
>>90214102
Yes, especially if it's something unexpected - and even better if there's a zoom upwards to reveal where it came from.
So in essence, it's all in the execution.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kg-hzg2kYsU
>>90220363That episode was bullshit.
>>90214102
Not these days unless you made it into a Pepe the frog edit
>>90214102
I dunno. I used to think so, but the older I get, the more I fear shit like brain damage.
>>90214102
It is when it happens in cartoons.
In real life it's just shit on liveleak.
>>90223017
Has anyone ever been crushed by an anvil?
Because if you really stat asking yourself how do you get UNDER an anvil??
>>90223096
I would imagine a foundry accident of some sort
