What 20 Things Look Like in Real Life, That We Only Know From Action Movies

No matter how old we are, fantasy and adventure movies will keep us hooked and on the edge of our seats. Though filmmakers manage to masterfully transfer us to their imaginary worlds and make us believe in everything they show to us, who of us would refuse to look at the things that we usually only see only on the big screen, in real life?

We at Bright Side gladly re-watched cult movies and found out what the phenomena, places, and even creatures from those flicks look like in real life.
