This e-book companion program would have a configurable level of realism. It would insert plot-armor-breaking devices at appropriate places (entered there by a human, most such places can be found by skimming the book) in larger or smaller quantity (using a different color and bold font)as desired. Readers annoyed by heavy layers of plot armor could convert their annoyance to chuckles by having this program installed and activated.

Annotation:







       There's an existing hardcopy book consisting of a series of medical reports on the likely realistic condition of various Hollywood action heroes by the end of their adventures. I'll see if I can find the title.   

       As you can probably guess, many of them are dead and few of them are able to walk unaided.

       That's one thing I liked about the early Die Hard movies (hero was bleeding & injured & struggling), & didn't like about the newer Die Hard movies (hero was indestructible).

       Given infinite possibilities... infinite escape clauses present themselves.   

       Karma's a bitch.   

       Thank you, [Voice]; that was the one.
