What do you mean by “Breaking the fourth wall” and what are the pros and cons of breaking the fourth wall while looking at some of the examples.
Imagine a play or TV audience in seats looking at a set. That set will have a wall on each side and a wall at the back. (Or a curtain, or simply a line made of masking tape demarcating the boundary of the set, but it’s a “wall” for these purposes.)The invisible plane between the audience and the set is the fourth wall.“Breaking the fourth wall” means removing the fictitious boundary between the performer(s) and the audience. It frequently involves characters acting out of character (e.g.: Actor who plays Wizard enters into the persona of Actor), or characters being thrust into the audience’s world (e.g.: Wizard turns to the audience and says, “I was just in a castle! How did I end up in a theatre?”).Pros are that it works well for shows that involve audience participation, can have actors make asides that flesh out the stories on set, and can have actors riff off of their own natural talents.Cons are that if it’s done wrong, it can completely interrupt the flow of a story, remove suspension of disbelief, or be corny.Breaking the fourth wall effectively is often done in comedy. For example, on Whose Line Is it Anyway?, here’s Ryan Stiles breaking a desk light with his head:(from YouTube)Drew Carey had no choice but to break the fourth wall.
What happened to Alex Wynn? She was trying to cure her cancer naturally.
As of two months ago Alex was in Mexico getting Vitamin C infusions. This was off her GoFundme page.What I think people are missing in all this is that Cancer is not an outside invasion like a bacteria or virus is that your body needs to fight off. Cancer is your very own cells doing an abnormal thing: They are dividing and multiplying without the normal genetic governing mechanism stopping them.The thing to remember is cancer cells love the vitamins, natural foods, juice nutrients even more so than your normal cells because they are growing so fast. That’s why people with advanced cancer start to lose weight and look thin and sickly: all because the cancer, as it grows, sucks every available nutrient out of the bloodstream.For this reason you are not going to find some magic chemical that works like an antibiotic against a bacteria. Except for the broken cellular regulation gene, cancer cells are your cells.Chemotherapy takes advantage of the fact that cancer cells are taking in all these bodily nutrients much faster than normal cells. So physicians ‘poison’ the body with the hope that the cancer cells will take in a huge dose of the poison and die off before the normal growing cells of the body start dying. Sometime it is an art to get the level of poison ‘just right’.Fast growing cells are also more susceptible to radiation damage than slower growing cells and so radiation can be used to target tumors in an effort to kill off those cells. Again, it is a balance: too much radiation kills healthy tissue, not enough will fail to kill all the cancer cells.The time to eat healthy, take supplements and exercise is BEFORE you develop cancer. The more toxic your lifestyle, the greater chance that something will damage that one cell in the body turning off the regulatory mechanism and allowing cancer to develop.Remember, if something as simple as Vitamin C infusion could cure cancer, every pharmaceutical company in the world would be climbing all over it to regulate it, refine it and distill the exact effective component so they could sell it at a huge profit.
