Can I ask, Randall, if there is a reason/rumour or whatever that was obtained from a source that has led you to believe that normal shaking of the kind you mention might lead to a worry of this kind given the kind of protection there is from a film cassette inside its canister
It is just that I think this is the first inquiry of this nature I have seen kind.
Thanks

I have seen people make comments about the image falling off the film in the past and at the time they really appeared to believe it. Of course other people thought that was funny and make jokes about it.

I like these questions from those who are new to film. They remind us about how much knowledge we tend to assume to be generally understood.
Why shake the canister to see if there's exposed film in there? How would you know if it's exposed or unshot or shot and developed? Just take the cover off and look.
I'm curious as to what you think will happen if you shake a fill cassette?
Good one, I'm going to use thatThat was a problem with early hard drives. As the drives spun, the centrifugal force caused the bits to slide out to the outer edges of the disk, and if you didn't run the right tool, disingenuously named "defragment", eventually the data would slip off the edge of the disk and get stuck on the inside of the housing.

These days the introduction of "tone indictors" that a lot of us teens and others like to use b/c we text online and use social media 24/7. For ex. use /j = joke and /g = genuine at the end of their statement to show emotion in their sentences.

Those are actually older than what we consider the internet/www. Check out old newsgroup archives and such. Seems people had this figured out before the rest of the world got online and had to invent it again.
I'm not too sure now thinking about it... Maybe I was assuming that the images would be messed up SOMEHOW.
I have another absurd question that seems common sense but need reassurance from some opinions, does shaking the film canister that has exposed film inside of the film canister which is also inside of the plastic opaque container have a potential of ruining your film? Thank you!
Not if you're in the southern hemisphere, they don'tWhat is even more confusing is that both on film and digitally the pictures are upside down so when the cameras get dropped all the photons get really confused.

If you shake it too much it will build up pressure and the shots will ooze out of the top of the canister. This happens even when I don't shake it, the good shots get out and I'm stuck w/ the leftovers.

That might be awk-wardMaybe grep it.
So over time there was a byte slime building up around the perimeter of he disks, eventually leading to disk getting stuck. Now I know what happened to few of mine.

Don't be too scared by all the old computer jokes here - it is just some people re-visiting their youth!

Youth? I'm still a linux admin. awk/sed are still useful commands.
