This cartoon in mostly all of the scenes defies thew laws of physics. There repeated scenes where Yosemite Sam runs off the diving board and is just suspended in mid air for a good 30 seconds or so before falling into the water below. The reason why this cant be possible is because when an object falls off the edge and free falls down, it instantly starts to fall downward at 10 m/s. To find the real time that Sam actually would have fallen from the top of the diving to the water tub below you take the square root of the distance which in this video is 500 feet, multiply it by two, multiply that by two, then divide that by 10 and you get your answer.
In conclusion, while cartoons are hilarious, they also more than often defy the laws of physics.
