race across the amazon jungle

beast
spider man
nightcrawler
catwoman
dr octopus

they have to swing there way across the amazon jungle.

rules are they cant touch the ground they can only swing from one branch to the next through the jungle or jump from one tree to another if they cant reach for another branch

no webbing and no teleporting.

question is who will make it to other side of the jungle 1st ?

id have to give it to beast since he spends the whole day in the danger room swinging around.

Beast and Spider-man tie. Spider man has an edge with his agility and ability to stick to the trees, while beast is just built for doing stuff like this.

Night Crawler puts up a fight for a while, but eventually falls behind and comes in a fairly close third...but then dies shortly after from exhaustion ;-p

Catwoman comes in fourth.

Dr. Octopus gets tangled up in the thick brush, which slows him way down. He places last.

IMHO, of course xD

since the amazon is approx 1.6 million sq miles im sure somewhere through there spidey and beast would find some trouble. no way they can tie racing a distance like that. but yea those 2 would definitely make 1st or 2nd. unless you know someone else that isnt in the list that can whip them swinging feel free to add them.

While I agree that they probably won't tie. That wasn't really my point, my point was that it would be so close between the two that it could easily go either way.

Spiderman - IMO he can launch himself father than Beast and go over the tree line easily. This would help him avoid troubles to.
Beast - he would be very quick from branch to branch but like I said Spider man imo can propell himself a few ancres at a time.
NC - Not as good at Beast but might get hindered by some animals or something.
Dr. O - Makes it but, dead last.

I think that venom or carnage would do excellent. They have Spidermans jumping ability plus they can extend there tendrils as far as they can. These are not webs. Sandman also would do good as he could not get tangled because his sand wont get stuck in the branches. Sandman dosent have to worry about animals. He can stretch pretty far.

Spidey.

Hmm... how do you think vixen would do? If she used like monkey swinging power or something.

i dont know why everyone keeps thinking otto would come in last since he can reach out further than the rest of them. his only downfall would be breaking the branches with his arms since they are so strong so i guess he might have to take it easy a little swinging and not grabbing so hard.

Squirrel Girl would beat them all at this contest.

I think it is also the weight. Those tentacles got to be heavy even if he grips them lightly it won't be able to support him. Unless he is gripping the tree trunks then idk....

You guys are underrating Kurt, he's more agile than Beast, and like Spider-Man, he can actually stick to walls and surfaces.

The really thick brush and treetop canopies would create visual barriers for Nightcrawler which would slow him down--he can't teleport and risk embedding himself in tree branches if he can't see well. I think it would slow him down enough to not keep up with spiderman at least. Maybe he could keep up with beast.

that why i thought about giving spidey the symbiote but then it would make the race totally unfair. spidey already has a chance at winning without it. this race is about swinging and climbing from one tree to another i dont think sandman would do so good.

Sandman has been known to stretch pretty long distances. Sandman dosent actually have to climb he can will his sand from one location to another. He can form a long arm and hand made out of sand.

but, the heat and humidity of that environment has to be shitty for mr. mcCoy, and the sheer distance he has to travel is imo outside of his capabilities. also, the amazon rainforest is not a flat plain, it has drop-offs and rivers throughout it' expanse.

and spider man is also prone to overheating, and the ills of the rainforest can kill him.

my vote is that nobody gets out alive under their own power. it's too large.
