Einstein would be cackling in his grave! When you throw a ball at 30 m/s while standing on a truck moving at 20 m/s, classical physics says the ball should move at 50 m/s. But NOPE! Thanks to relativistic velocity addition, you get that bizarre 49.99999(repeat forever) number instead. Why? Because at high speeds, velocities don't simply add up—spacetime itself says "not so fast, buddy!" The closer you get to light speed, the more the universe throws this mathematical curveball at you. The look of existential confusion on Gru's face is basically every physics student realizing their intuition is completely wrong!
