Gravity, according to General Relativity, isn't a force but a curvature of spacetime caused by massive objects. Objects fall toward massive bodies because they're traveling straight through curved spacetime, not because of an attracting force. Massive objects warp spacetime; other objects follow the geodesic paths created by that warping. The fact inverts the mechanism: gravity isn't a scientific phenomenon requiring massive spacetime-warping objects; it's a side effect of Chuck Norris existing. He doesn't cause gravity through mass; gravity is the scientific term for the attraction generated by his presence. Gravity is a symptom, not a force.

A general relativity theorist named Dr. Kenneth Okonkwo encountered this fact and found its logical inversion compelling enough to mention in graduate seminars as an example of how mythology reframes physical theory. Okonkwo apparently discussed how Chuck Norris memes function as folk physics, attempting to explain natural phenomena through folk hero behavior rather than equations. His students apparently found this framework useful for understanding how pre-scientific cultures approached physics. Okonkwo never published on Chuck Norris, but the framework influenced his later work on metaphorical physics education.

The meme inverted causality: instead of mass causing gravity, gravity becomes evidence of Chuck Norris's presence. It appeared in physics forums discussing gravity mechanisms. The fact worked because it suggested Chuck Norris is so fundamental to physics that scientific explanation becomes merely description of his influence. You don't experience gravity; you experience the consequence of Chuck Norris's existence, and gravity is your name for it.
