Let’s talk about Flying

2007 November 16

I’m officially convinced that the power of flight ALWAYS comes with the power of super strong arms…

Heroes - Claire and... flyboy?

Call me a wuss, but that seems like a pretty hard pose to hold for long periods of time (no matter how hot the chick is)… and with the amount of gravity in play here, the only smile I’ll be able to plaster on my face will be one of pain… or relief, that no one is plummeting to their deaths yet.

I mean Superman is one thing… He is… Super… has Super Hearing, Super Speed AND most importantly, Super Strength! So carrying someone like that would be a piece of cake for him…

Superman Returns

But Lois… She’ll need arms of steel to cling on to him like that… And don’t give me the bull that Supes is actually holding her by the waist… TRY holding someone by the waist like that for just a few seconds, the look that she’ll be giving him will probably be the 5-chakras-brain-destroying-stare-of-gruesome-and-most-painful-death… we’re talking about Major Skid Marks here.

Maybe it’s a Super Gravity Field, Super Magnetic Field…. Or maybe, just maybe, the cloak is strategically placed to hide a certain Super…. Wok.

Yes yes, I know it’s not a good sign for my mental health when I actually spend time typing a post discussing the feasibility of the actions of fictional characters, so in order to demonstrate that my mental faculties are still functional, I’ll have to say… PHHHBbbbtttttt………

    Good observation. You’re not crazy, however you have to consider powers don’t exactly follow the laws of science.

    Not to mention in one of the original Superman movies, I think it was Superman II, Superman takes Lois flying and they end up flying and are only holding hands…that’s it! Lois Lane is holding Superman’s hand and his flying in a prone position, I don’t buy it.
