What is a real world example of a line segment?

Any line that is drawn or printed is a real life approximation. A line is an abstract geometric concept which has a length but no thickness. A line segment is of finite length.

However, it is an approximation because at the microscopic, or submicroscopic level, it is impossible for it to have no thickness at all.
