The idea of stopping time

You couldn't enjoy it 1) Air doesn move. So how can you breath? Heck, wouldn't it be like trying to move through stone? 2) Light doesn't move. You can't see. And thanks to no moving air, you can't hear either 3) Even ignoring that, if you moved anything, wouldn't it disintegrate due to effectively moving faster than anything, period?

    Seems like most versions I've seen of it recently fix all that by having time move really slowly.

    Well a lot of time stopping is done through magical/supernatural means, so I guess there would be magic safety measures.

    You can change. You can.
    Most of the time, the idea is that time only stops for you and the objects you're in contact with. Which means that the air you touch would be out of the temporal lock and thus it would move. Same goes to light and so on.

    There are some stuff that doesn't work that way and just evades the question, but most of the time, they're clearly fantasy works.
