A trope, usually appearing in science fiction, where something directly contradictory to the pre-established science of the world happens.

Origin: The characters in K. A. Applegate's Animorphs series did a scientifically impossible (both by real-world physics and the fictional universe's) maneuver that the fandom refers to as the 'bird parachute'.
"Wow, those characters totally bird parachuted there!"

Get the bird parachute mug.
Ship of Magnus Chase and Alex Fierro, from the Magnus Chase (book) series by Rick Riordan.
Also sometimes referred to as the Ship of the Dead which is the name of the third book in the Magnus Chase book series. The book takes place in Valhalla, the afterlife of the honored dead Norse, where both the characters are dead, making the ship, therefore, the Ship of the Dead.

This ship is somewhat cannon, depending on who you ask.

This ship is sometimes called Maglex.
Fangirl/fanboy: "Oh my gosh! I just read the Magnus Chase series, and I so ship Malex!"
