What properties would fractal objects have in real life?
So far I've got Infinitely stretchy and frictionless to non-fractal objects.

Probably wouldn't really make a difference past the Planck length

fractal objects exist in biological objects like ferns (plant).

And some bugs like aphids create clone offspring that have the same genetic pattern as the birther, so it's genetic code/body plan repeats along a temporal dimension instead of a spatial one

Fractals are actually used in a lot of domains:
Telecommunications: The way computers are interconnected in the internet generates a fractal. Analyzing the fractal patterns helps retrieve information about the network that may help it become more efficient.
Stock trading: someone noticed that the value of shares almost always behaves like a fractal. This had lead to the creation of new tools to study the behavior of the stock market.
Medecine: Since the human body has systems that behave like fractals (ex: blood circulation), studying them may become useful to develop new remedies.
Computer science: some programs have parts of code that behave like fractals that help to solve complex problems. The parts that behave like fractals are called recursive functions.
There are many other examples such as astronomy and fluid dynamics
