The secret to faulty comparison is to make sure that you are comparing two things equally.
For example:
The yellow ball can jump higher than all of the balls.
The sentence may seem correct but it's not. There is a comparison between a ball's ability of bouncing and balls, which doesn't make sense.
The correct sentence would look like this: The yellow ball can jump higher than all of the balls can.
