There is a difference between "X didn't happen" and "X wasn't possible".
Hitler could have been assassinated. It was tried multiple times:

None of these attempts failed because the act of assassinating Hitler was technically impossible, they failed to chance, unfavorable conditions, intervention, human error, etc. Given enough attempts, eventuelly one of them would have succeeded.
What kind of upsidedown bar for safety is that? Hey our car isn't a death trap, given enough collisions someone will survive eventually!
