People would be running freely without stopping, because they are massless.

If inertia didn't exist, the ball would never stop moving until someone initiates a force onto it as stated by Newton's first law; "an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force".

If inertia didn't exist, then I don't even think earth could orbit the sun...

isaiah.feynman · Answer

So many things would happen without inertia!
