Factual error: When Dr. Essex is walking through the museum with Charles Darwin, a fully-assembled dinosaur fossil is on display. This scene takes place in London in 1859, but the first ever dinosaur to be displayed didn't occur until 1868 in Philadelphia. (00:03:55)

X-Men (1992)
Bloodlines - S5-E6
Factual error: When Rogue tricks the Friends of Humanity into firing on their own helicopters, two men are shown to be immediately parachuting from the helicopter at an altitude of at most, 100 feet. This wouldn't really be possible because jumping from such a low altitude would require the person to immediately deploy the parachute, which in this case would cause the parachute to be torn to shreds by the helicopter's rotor. If a person jumped from that altitude and deployed the parachute after free falling enough to clear the rotor, they would have fallen too far for the parachute to have been effective in allowing them to land safely, if the parachute even opened before they hit the ground.

Factual error: Wolverine is able to call the mansion from a payphone without depositing any money, nor is he shown to be using a prepaid phone card or making a collect call. (00:09:40)

X-Men (1992)
The Lotus and the Steel - S4-E13
Factual error: When Wolverine tears off the man's car door, he does so by putting his hands inside the spaces between the car door and the car's body. Those spaces are way too narrow for a person to fit their fingers inside. (00:03:25)

Factual error: Even though Xavier is a paraplegic, you can see him freely moving his legs when the astronaut helps him out of his seat and walk over to Beast. (00:04:20)

X-Men (1992)
Factual error: When Rogue attempts to correct the space shuttle's flight path, she has to let go because of the intense heat due to re-entry. Indeed, a temperature as hot as a shuttle in re-entry (upwards of 3,000° F) would have completely melted through her gloves, yet when she lets go, they only have a little smoke coming off them.

Factual error: The Moon is more than 230,000 miles away from Earth, yet in a shot of Asteroid M just outside of Earth's orbit, the Moon is right there as well. (00:15:50)

X-Men (1992)
Factual error: When Moira is calling her ex-husband Joe in Edinburgh from the Blackbird phone, she dials a typical U.S. seven-digit phone number (it looks like she dials 555-1238). However, even assuming she wouldn't be required to dial an exit code from the Blackbird, a typical Edinburgh phone number would have more digits, along the lines of +44-131-XXX-XXXX. (00:16:50)

Savage Land, Strange Heart (2) - S3-E9
Factual error: The amount of rubble that falls on Storm and buries her should have crushed her to death. (00:18:30 - 00:19:20)

X-Men (1992)
Savage Land, Strange Heart (1) - S3-E8
Factual error: The amount of rubble that falls onto Sauron would have easily killed him, as his mutant powers do not include the ability to be impervious to heavy damage. (00:18:30)

Factual error: When Gambit is inside his mini-jet after escaping from Bishop and Wolverine, his radar screen says "Washington D.C." but the graphic above it is Washington state.
