* ArtisticLicenseNuclearPhysics: Part of "Operation: Moon Crash" requires slathering Murray in radioactive petroleum oils to make him [[SicklyGreenGlow glow in the dark]]. One of the jokes is Bentley instructing Sly and Murray to carefully collect the oil (implying that radiation is still deadly in-universe), only to show Murray is dancing in the oil. If the radiation in that stuff is so potent that it's ''glowing'', it should have killed both Sly and Murray the moment it reached the surface without protective suits on. If not, the cancers and other health defects it would cause would have rendered the both of them unfit for the Cooper Vault job and would likely have killed them before the fourth game.

* ImpossiblyGracefulGiant: After first being possessed by the Mask of Dark Earth, Carmelita is still able to do her areal somersaults despite her now giant size. It's unknown if she could still do them after her size was further increased by Bentley's darts, but she does get a lot faster. She is shown moving very slowly after her final increase from the dynamite, though it's stated she's not moving at full speed and that at her full speed, the gang can no longer outrun her in their giant truck.

* GiantWoman: Carmelita becomes this during "Operation: Moon Crash". She initially becomes about double Sly's height when she [[SpannerInTheWorks interrupts the Cooper Gang's plan]] to destroy the Mask of Dark Earth, resulting in it getting onto her face. Bentley tries to sedate her with his tranquilizer darts, [[NiceJobBreakingItHero but they only make her bigger]], large enough to carry one of the miners' big trucks sandwiched between her arm and her body. The Cooper Gang subsequently attempts to use their own big truck to escape from Carmelita and take her down with the ExplodingBarrels she throws at them, but these attempts only make her even larger. By the final part of the mission, she's easily carrying the stolen truck in one hand, and the Coopers' truck doesn't even pass her boots. In order to remove the mask, Sly has to [[ColossusClimb climb up Carmelita's clothes]] to reach the mask's latching points, causing Carmelita to swipe at him and break the pieces herself.
