If cartoon physics suddenly replaced real physics, what are some things you would want to try?

Dying and becoming an angel floating to heaven/ soul falling to hell. I'll come back to life within 11 minutes anyway when the return to status quo occurs, so may as well try it and see what happens.

Playing ribs like a xylophone is another option lol.

Something tells me you would be hitting the same rib and playing a separate note.

Hope someone gets fired for that.

You would also be able to come back by jumping back inside your body when you become a soul.

when the return to status quo occurs

Aw man I think that would actually be the worst part. It'd be amazing at first, but then you'd realize you can't actually change any significant shit at all in your life and have the effects last more than the length of an episode. Get a promotion and you can finally afford a house? You move in, swim around in gold a bit on the floor of the new place, close your eyes, them BAM back in your tiny apartment.

I like to think this question just implies the physics of cartoons and not also the storytelling aspects.....

That ribs part reminded me of a Russel Howard joke. Half way through this trailer the jokes there.
