Lets break physics for a second...

Okay here's what we're going to do for a second or two. Lets turn off friction.

Now if we could just turn off friction without destroying the particles and atoms pushing against one another it could be fun for a minute or two- barring no one was driving, we would all be unable to walk, stand, grab objects, drive, start cars, ect, ect. you get the idea. The reality of this though is that by deleting friction we ultimately have to stop atoms from repelling and being attracted to one another and this is a very sticky situation, actually is very very slippery. Dirt piles would turn to liquid like and the ground would be like quicksand. life would be very hard to say the least.
