Surfer can move at speed of light.
Hulk starts his thunderclap but never gets to finish it, with no hands.
Or, he finds a "power cosmic pillow" stopping his clap.
Or, Hulk finds himself clapping somewhere between earth and the moon, clapping in a harmless direction.

And, most of us know, poop cannot clap.
And if poop CAN clap, it's mostly just gross.
