# Ragdoll physics

> Configure ragdoll physics for characters.

Ragdoll physics are a set of colliders, rigid bodies and joints that you can apply to a humanoid character, to simulate behaviour such as impact collisions and character death.

Unity provides a [Ragdoll Wizard](/engine/6000.7/manual/physics-section/physics-overview/ragdoll/wizard-ragdoll-wizard.md) that allows you to configure ragdoll physics behaviours on your character.
