Yeah the "Physics applies to the real world" idea. I like its corollary. Mac-Gyvering your way through life. I remember getting strange looks when to light some candles for a birthday cake, I used paper and an induction hob. Using a siphon to remove the water from a washing machine. Bending small locks open. Pulleys and rope tricks. There are similar epiphanies in physics, when you realize those chemistry formulas, atoms and molecules are like real object just real small. That those chemistry rules, are just statistical mathematics calculation shortcuts for modelling what's happening to large quantities of small objects. Phases of matter : solid, liquid, gaz : you can transform any matter between those states. Water is not the only liquid. You can melt plenty of metals. You can vaporize away the matter you don't want. You can freeze liquids into solids by cooling them.
