They are incredibly strong but if you want to show real world strength look at concrete numbers. Look at the highest overhead press weight. Which is something like 450 to 500 pounds.Think about the fact this is a human being exerting their max abilities for one rep and then realize Bane casually and easily picked up a man probably weighing somewhere around 275 with all the armor over his head and held him there like a baby.
Also think about the fact he also causally picked up said man with one hand and walked around with him.
I think the best strongman in the world could do Bane's first feat but not with the same ease, I doubt any of them would be able to do the second one.
Again i can post feats all day by normal humans that are similar to what bane did. They may not be EXACT but they are in the same ball park.
With that , all im saying is that he is in the same level as VERY strong humans.
What exactly are you arguing here? That movie bane had super strength by what he displayed in the dark knight movie? That he is well above any super strong human?
If thats the case. what level of superhuman strength do you think movie bane has? Captain America tier? Above Cap?
