So, you've got a funny character in a Slapstick, just lining up a wave of truly incredibly bad and unlucky physical traumas for the character to wade through for your audiences twisted amusement. Just one problem. The things your character is about to go through would kill any normal being. The solution? Enter the Iron Butt Monkey. Obviously a form of Acceptable Breaks From Reality. Primarily an animation trope, Western Animation is particularly fond of this one. Not to be confused with Iron Monkey, a Hongkong action film set within the mythology of Once Upon a Time in China.
