Here we have a very common issue among our super-powered pals:
Captain Marvel and Supes and Hulk and half of the superhero pantheon, are better than you ever knew. Duh, they are super-strong because that makes so much sense. What you might not appreciate is that they somehow make a building/plane/[insert large object here] ridiculously resilient just by touching it.
Because we know that they can pick up a few tons of weight. Heck, even Spider-Man can rock 10 tons and break a light sweat. But with amazing feats like Captain Marvel saving airplanes (he does that, right?) there would be a huge amount of pressure exerted on an object. In science, that means instead of catching a tank, Hulk’s fists would go through the tank. Even if Hulk can handle the weight, the exterior of the tank should not. Unless you’re a superhero. Because then who cares?
Thanks for stopping!
Whenever we see supes do things like lift buildings from a corner without the whole thing breaking, writers tacitly attribute the feat to the power of tactile telekinesis. *spoooky*
Haha, they do the same thing when they write about Cyclops. How he has a psychic ability that works against the eye blast, and saves his poor neck from snapping.
Hey, at least they’re acknowledging science!
