static_cast<> does not do run time type checking. That's why base class pointer can be changed to drived class though it actually is a base class pointer. Now its a drived class pointer, you can call drived class functions. If you use dynamic_cast<> instead of static_cast<>, it will throw a bad cast exception, because dynamic_cast<> does runtime type checking.
