He even made some assumptions on his own.

As I said, other sources state differently about the luminosity.

Can't stop lyin.

Why you always lyin?

Lol I didn’t lie. I never heard him site anything. I’ll look at the link in the description.

"From the papers and values that I could find, the average luminosity of a neutron star is..."

Aka. Not an assumption. He did research. He even provided sources at the bottom of the info section of the video.

Thor is much cooler, Supes is more powerful overall and wins this handily.

No, Superman isn’t. Thor has the better feats, cooler powers, and more heroic by a landslide than Superman aka Mr. Staleski.

Thor has better ranged powers and is more heroic, sure. Supes is much faster and stronger (by an amount hard to define exactly, at least in my eyes). That is all.

Yes, he’s stronger and faster but Thor is strong and quick enough to hit him. Far slower have done so. Thor also has greater feats and you agree the far better hero.

We're all shaking in anticipation of your findings...

Surtur feat has nothing to do with it though.
Its a good feat on its own.
Let's say Hulk just landed on Thor (didn't punch).
From 150m high (being generous)
Hulk would have obtained a landing velocity of 54m/s (about 120mph)
The momentum is about 27,110kg*m/s
If the contact time is about 0.1 seconds (we didn't see it) then the impact force would be 27 tons.
If Hulk can supply 200 tons of punching force then we have 227tons on Thor.

So you want to judge the added force only by velocity?

Cool.

That means that the Surtur punch is going to be mostly Hulk' strength rather than his momentum.

Just so you understand what I'm talking about, let's say Hulk impacted Surtur at 2 km/s and he weights around 500 kg. His momentum would be about 1,000,000 kg*m/s, or about 1000 tons*m/s.

For comparison, Surtur's head alone would weight way more than 1000 tons and moved way faster than 1 m/s when Hulk punched it.

Surtur's head moved several times it's length in 1 second, which is rather impressive considering Surtur's size.

Let's use 1000 tons and 40 m/s for a low end (the real numbers are much higher than this).

That's about 40,000,000 kg*m/s, if we subtract the 1,000,000 kg*m/s that was Hulk's leaping momentum, we are left with 39,000,000 kg*m/s for Hulk's strength.

I encourage others to correct this calculation if they so wish.

Assuming Surtur was as dense as magma then the actual amount would be higher. I see no problem with your calculations. Good job!

But that proves my 2 points.
1. Writer's do not know the science behind many feats they create.
which causes
2. Character's showings to fluctuate wildly between scenes.

For example, Immediately after that hit, Hulk's hits did nothing to Surtur. That's a vast difference in power. This makes us believe that the initial hit was mostly supplied by Hulk's downward momentum, but it's most likely just a huge fluctuation due to writers not knowing the magnitude of the feat.

That's why I'm a firm believer that you can't equate one showing with another.
Otherwise, we can say stupid stuff like Gladiator hit Colossus with planet busting strength or Odin hit Thanos with galaxy busting blasts, etc.

Thor wins.

I like how you agree with the calcs, which state that his momentum at best provided a tiny fraction of the force. then you turn around and claim that most of the force was provided by his momentum.

IOW, you just proved that you're a troll that'll ignore everything that goes against your massive bias.

Superman is stronger and a lot faster. Thor hits harder (when amped, especially with weapons), has AOEs, better ranged attacks and can coat himself in lightning that auto-attacks enemies, and has far better fighting skills.

That's why I say this is a toss up.

Reading comprehension is not your strong suit I see.

This is what I said,

"This makes us believe that the initial hit was mostly supplied by Hulk's downward momentum, but it's most likely just a huge fluctuation due to writers not knowing the magnitude of the feat."

If you want to play this game, fine.

Prove that it made "us believe that the initial hit was mostly supplied by Hulk's downward momentum".

thanks for the laughs.. anytime i need to laugh i'll jut read your posts

The first hit makes Surtur flinch, the other hits do nothing. The first hit has Hulk’s momentum coming down (he’s falling). The other hits Hulk is not falling.
Therefore it makes us think that Hulk’s falling had something to do with it.

I didn't ask for you to explain why you believe it. your claim was that it made "us" believe it. provide the names and statements to back up your claim.

If you didn't believe it then I stand corrected. "us" isn't correct.

Still waiting on the BZ challenge acceptance h1.
