Why Superpowers Might Be Dangerous to Have
The idea of gaining superpowers has always been appealing. Finding a way out of your ordinary boring life and making yourself into something extraordinary is a secret fantasy weβve all played in our head a least once. But thereβs two sides to every coin, and having superpowers isnβt as awesome as you read about in comic books and see in superhero movies. If you wanna know why you really donβt want these superhuman abilities, watch our new video.

SUMMARY:
- Youβd be invisible to everyone else, but everyone else would also be invisible to you! To get around that problem, youβd have to make a lot more photons go into your eyes than they normally do, and all those light particles being in your eyes would actually make them glow.
- Being invisible takes away visual information. Walking up and down the stairs in the dark is scary because we canβt see the stairs, but itβs still possible because the proprioceptors in your body know where your limbs are.
- If you measure super strength by your ability to punch through a concrete wall, then youβd have to generate about 25,000 Newtons of force, which is about 100 times more than the average person.
- The real problem comes with the level of acceleration it would take for you to reach the speeds these superheroes do.
- Youβd need to have other superpowers to protect you from the effects of instantaneous acceleration because, otherwise, your legs would snap right in half as soon as you tried it!
- Itβs not just your body that wouldnβt be able to deal with so much acceleration at once; your brain isnβt equipped to handle it either.
