Thor vs Aquaman [pure strength]

Philo is doing a fine job by himself. I don't think I can really add anything other than digging up some older feats.

'Spoosh' indeed!

Hm, well, that won't do.

It is orders of magntitude [i.e. 10 to the power X] easier to throw something a distance in the air, than it is vertically, in the water, from the floor of the ocean.

If somebody doesn't grasp the concept, try throwing a baseball while you're underwater, then try to throw a baseball while you're in the air. Or, simpler, look at the difference between moving in water compared to moving in air. The calculations are fairly complicated, but doable if necessary, but this is rather simple to understand.

Unfortunately, Aquaman's feat is much, much superior. But, surely, Thor has something that compares, so that we can move on to better feats.

He also had extra push from swimming the sub up from the floor.
Thor did it with one arm, all muscle, and virtually no struggle.

But anyways, catches a commercial airliner dead stop almost on a nosedive then lays it on the ground. Wtf was that plane made of?

I knew Philo was going to compare it to the sub feat and say it was superior.

Darksaint like I said there is a point to these threads. It's not that Thor doesn't have lifting feats but given the nature of the character they'll generally never be as grandiose as what we know his power level is.

Especially when put a burden on him that falls well outside of his normal operation of dealing with things by hitting them with his hammer.

Sounds more and more like an excuse tbh.

Celery it won't surprise me if Philo argues it is not a lifting or throwing feat since Thor just caught it and doesn't count.

He will also argue the sub feat is still superior. Honestly it probably is superior but we still know Thor is stronger.

And then Philo and Abhi will make some sarcastic remark about expecting more from Thor thinking themselves clever.

Just calling a spade a spade. There was a reason this thread was made the way it was.

Aquaman's ocean liner feat was also pretty good:

So was his trench feat:

Hm.

Maybe we should go lower.

I'd prefer to showcase Aquaman, and if nobody can match the first feat, we should start from the bottom up.

Here Aquaman extremely casually lifts and moves a cruiser ship of aprox ~250k or so tons above his head.

Close but no cigar.

Arthur literally swings a huge ship as a battering ram against Dead King. Easily better.

Not really. Thor is a character with literally hundreds of issues of his own. If he is supposed to be at "that power level" without mjolnir, he should've feats to support that.

Your whining is just that, whining.

Good scan, abhi 👆

Grandiose? You're talking like wtf levels? Obviously everyone knows about overpowering Jormugand and Yggdrasil. Aquaman can only dream of replicating those feats. He has a bunch of simpler ones, but they are ridiculous levels themselves.

His throwing feats alone are well beyond Arthur's.

He has replicated the impact force of a comet from throwing a small rock.

He even shook Asgard just by throwing a chair.

And just for kicks, he has punched an ancient hulk clear through the earth.
I know it's not lifting or throwing, but the disparity between these two is so obvious. Arthur is like a 2nd grader compared to him.

personal bias aside- i havent seen any feats posted that make the difference in lifting strength look "obvious" 😬

it's one thing for you and newjak to say these things about thor, but proving them seems to be pretty hard?

See what I mean Darksaint. There is a purpose to these threads. Always has been.

I don't think you actually put your personal bias aside.

We all should know why the stipulations of this match were made for silly reasons. We should understand why finding the feats people want with said stipulations around Thor are going to work against how the character is written.

none of the scans you just posted are lifting feats bud. 😬

catching the plane is a great feat but again- it doesnt show some massive discrepancy when you have aquaman one-arming a damn cruise ship.

You're being childish.

Wait. Wut did you think he did with the cruise ship? R u implying he one armed lifted the entire thing?

Also you must have missed the memo, but throwing feats are in the op. 😬

This thread is childish so it would be on point lol

I think I've addressed this point in multiple ways now. If you don't get it by this point it's mostly because you probably do but just want to ignore the obvious for personal reasons.
