i dunno. could be, i guess...

That's why I was saying 1-2 tons seemed heavier than I expected.

look up osmium its the heaviest metal in existance.

colossus is compared to osmium

Is that in density or toughness? Something can be very tough without being dense, especially in fiction.

density.

Impressive, but that is still dense, I guess the weight wouldn't really matter to a high multiton character.

colossus and destroyer armor are same height (when destroyer at human size)they should weight the same being both are solid metal.

Kinda like how lead and aluminium would weigh the same given the same dimensions?

Colossus' metal form has often been said to weigh in at around 500lbs

I'd say I thought he was around 700 lbs or so. Hasn't Wolverine tossed him once or twice? Or easily tackled him?

Spider-Man could toss them better when tethered to a rope

Yeah. That sounds like something he'd do in character even to increase his distance even given his science skills.

lmfao at the opening pic.

Seconded.

Maybe I should have had two stips then.

Throwing distance would be a combo of strength but nobody has mentioned SPEED. Like mentioned, a human can throw a baseball maybe 300 feet or so and even if the ball was lighter you can't throw it much further cuz we are limited by muscle contraction speed. Spidey is superhumanly fast.
Just my guess: the lighter guys go about 1/3 mile and the heavier guys go 1/6 mile or less.

Well the functional strength and stabilizers also allows for greater acceleration as well. That is a good point you brought up though, and would you say that distance would increase much if he web tossed them?

no one is getting thrown anywhere near out of the park.

throwing batman for spiderman is not easier than throwing a baseball for a strong human.

a strong human cannot throw a baseball (which is aerodynamic) out of the park. Spiderman will not be able to throw anyone out of the park. He can throw daredevil and batman upwards of 100 feet or more.

Guys like hulk and juggernaut, I doubt spiderman can throw them more than 20 feet...as it would be hard to even grip them properly.

there are many people who can throw a baseball out of a baseball park.

Comparing Spider-man tossing a normal guy to a normal guy toosing a baseball is a false logic. It doesnt work that way.

Interesting, what would you say are the biggest changes?

Spider-man wears blue and red pajamas everywhere.

So it would even out otherwise then?

Yes. I think that's the only difference between Spider-man and a normal man.

Maybe if we took comicbook peak humans tossing a baseball that logic would've worked but it definitely doesnt with the real life humans, i mean spiderman can throw a car with one hand further than that. Every char in the thread is under half a ton. He can send them flying pretty darn far. And im talking several football fields far.
