Bench-press Earth

Started by pym-ftw6 pages

The lack of tactile telekinesis in marvel kind of eliminates this feat being replicated, I guess Colossus could do one set and hold it up indefinitely

I have no idea man, and I couldn't get rid of this one now, it's basically become like a fourth leg.

But anyway, thinking of moving out that way. How is it?

😂

I like it. It's very different from Ireland, so the culture shock was pretty bad, but there are jobs and i can afford to live away from my parents, so it has its advantages.

jake, I asked for one strength feat of thor in the past 10 years and I've gotten nothing, so don't give me bull that people have been posting feats for me

I just want ONE thor strength feat in the past TEN years...I really dont think thats unreasonable.

I was talking about in general when it comes to Thor's feats. The whole Bor/Odinforce Thor as compared to Classic/Current Thor fiasco and "magic rain" incidents come to mind.

And I already told you, too. As far as pure strength feats go, Thor's not really displayed anything lifting wise outside of Asgard within the past ten years. He's just not been written in that manner requiring to do so. But that doesn't mean his previous displays of strength no longer count, especially when said feats are canon.

Thor hasn't been forced to deal without Mjolnir for an extended period of time since he died during Ragnarok. Doesn't mean he can't invoke weather powers without them and perform a Durok Dropper.

If you want to arbitrarily decide in your mind that "Thor hasn't displayed a sufficient strength feat in ten years, ergo he's now weaker than he was in the 60's/70's/80's/90's", while incredibly stupid, that's certainly your prerogative.

Awesome. Thanks for the info.

And I maintain my stance that Jonn takes Supes BTW. This changes nothing.

You aussies. Your toilets flush in the wrong direction and now this!

I grew to love it though, tbh. Good people, decent nightlife, and all you have to trade off is very little rain and a ****ton of snow.

H'm. Let's see if we can convert this into numbers (been a long time since I've done something like this)...

If one googles up, "moving the earth" in joules, the most common figures range from roughly 4x10e24 to 3x10e33 joules. Let's go with the lower figure first because I first worked out the higher figure...and the result, imo, really challenges the suspension of disbelief.

Okay. The scans do not indicate that benchpressing was done at greater than "typical benching speed" (ie, no superspeed), so let's assume 2-seconds per rep: 1 sec pressing up, 1 sec lowering the weight.

Accordingly, with very broad estimations, Superman expended (minimally) 4x10e24 joules for one, 2-second rep. He was benching for 5 days: that's over 400,000 seconds, or more than 200,000 reps.

2x10e5 times 4x10e24 = 8x10e29: let's round this to 10e30 joules, this expended over 5 days of benching 1 Earth Weight Equivalent (1 EWE). Plus (we're not done yet), the task was not taxing for him, not at all. So let's say (entirely arbitrary) Superman was using 1/10 his strength for this feat. So maybe he was really capable of expending, roughly, 10e31 joules over these 5 days if he really had to.

So what we can now ask is: who else is capable of generating this level of power? This is roughly equivalent to what our entire Sun puts out in about 6.5 hours.

But wait: things get Really interesting if we go with the higher figure: 3x10e33 joules. Over 5 days of benching, this works out to the entire yearly energy output of our Sun -- about 10e34 joules -- over 700,000 years (which raises the interesting question of how Superman could've absorbed so much solar energy when exposed to only a tiny fraction of the Sun's output -- ie, what only his skin's surface area could capture -- for less than 80 years...but that's comic physics for ya, and why it might be better to go with the first estimation).

Captain Marvel can

Meh, Hulk under Pak would replicate that shit with his butt cheeks.

Didn't Beta Ray Bill and Gladiator move a planet (Not some dead rock, but an actual planet, that was inhabited and Earth like) across to the other side of a Star? That distance is immense and requires a lot more force than needed to bench press the Earth for 5 days, no?

when was this, any scans?

So, this is KMC high-herald list.

Who among these heralds can bench press a weight equal to earth for 5 days straight while losing energy constantly? They can amp their strength but ONLY what its shown to be in their actual feats. Let's go.

I defy your list and raise you Duplicate Boy (LOSH universe)

Talk about being absurdly, illogically and ridiculously overpowered. This is the reason why most comics are not being taken seriously.

Thanks. Someone do the math for me, how much force does moving an -Earth sized, at least imo- planet across million light years despite the gravity of a yellow class Star like our Sun take?

I think Pre-Flashpoint Superman's history with Celestial bodies is a bit more complicated than that. Hyperspace don't count bro.

I will, just provide me with the scans or at least issue numbers.

Also for Pr and Starscream it is my opinion that older feats do hold weight, just not as much weight as newer feats (since current characters are usually discussed). I would say feats in the last 10 years should hold more than double than feats over 20 years ago.

Blame newjak for confusing me and making me create this monstrosity. I asked because you are confusing Abhilegend to Carver9.
