I hope you haven't fallen for this age-old trick and actually clicked on the link. However, if you have, welcome. This is where ideas, plans, and dreams are built. (More to come)
Gravity is simply a force, right? well, if you could exert a greater force in the opposite diredtion, which you could do with a modified version of a dyson no sound fan thingy-mabob( Real sciency, huh?) You would elevate. you then lower the force exerted to match gravity, so you hover where you are. Then, a set of two more air turbine whatevers point opposite the desired direction, making you "Fly." I'd power it with my Hydro-Combustion engine I thought up, but ill say no more on that, cuz it's like a trillion dollar idea.
If your sitting down, how do you know whether or not you've wet yourself?
imagine science and magic together in one world.
The laws of science wouldn't be laws anymore. They'd just be guidelines.
Plus, if magic were to get out of control, all hell would break loose. There would have to be some sort of Ministry of Magic (some tacky British woman stole my idea) to regulate what could and couldn't be done.
And mythical creatures running around? Oh god, I don't even want to imagine the lengths animal activists would go to protect them; and all the creatures that could talk would try and guilt-trip everyone into becoming vegan. Not to mention the "undead" creatures, who wouldn't really hurt anybody but they sure as hell would be annoying. Could you imagine how impatient you'd get waiting at a stoplight for a zombie to cross the street?
It's a good thing J.K. Rowling didn't think about animal rights or zombie pedestrians when she wrote seven books about your same basic idea. Otherwise the movies would be totally unwatchable. Hell, I'd rather wait at an intersection for an elderly zombie to cross the street than watch an entire movie about it, along with mythical animal rights movements.
Amen. and as to your q/a for me...you would feel gravity because it would be pulling on you. Remember, the turbines would push you away from the ground, not cancel gravity.

End of ramble.
you are right, but arent there mythical creatures who eat meat too? like dragons or so?
of course there would be a ministerium to control the magic. and for the undead, they had to cover (the same goes for the mystical creatures). like the wizards in harry potter.
i forgot to say that not all mystical creatures would be living in this crazy world, the same goes for the undead.
I just had an incredibly creepy dream. A lady is walking through someone's house. There's a lot of ornate stuff nicely laid out all around on shelves. Mostly geometrically carved obsidian such as spheres and pyramids. The sort of things that are believed to hold mystic properties and powers. Anyway the lady comes to a painting on a wall, more like a photograph, in a simple glass frame. The picture was of a man from the shoulders up looking terrified with his arms flailing. A noise startled the lady and she bumped into the wall, knocking the picture down and breaking the glass. A vapor emitted from the picture and a ghostly form materialized behind the lady and flew into her. The picture frame instantly repaired itself and replaced itself on the wall, but contained the image of the lady in a similar position. The 'lady', now containing the spirit of the formerly trapped man, walked away.
I'd create a system that allows you to figure out what people want and help them get it over time. Then again it's a good idea so americans would hate it and want more drugs -,-
Would all these worlds be accessible to each other in some way? I can't choose just one to live in.
I'd also think the mythical creatures would prove themselves useful in battling undead creatures and demons.
As for the "super" world, it wouldn't work. In the immortal words of Syndrome:
"And when everyone's super, no one will be."
So the only difference between that world and a magical world would be the different abilities everyone would have. Which means everyone would have more limited power than if they lived in a magical world.
no no no, in the world with the super beings are all powers/mutations different and unique. some are powerful and/or useful, others are lame and/or unuseful.
the same goes for the magical world, some can control strong magic and some can only weak magic. and then there are very few who are able to control more than one magic, the more you could use the rarer it gets.
for the mythical world, there are chimeras/mixes of diferent mythical creatures too.
now combine two of these worlds to one...magic and mythical or so...
