One of its boasts was that it could survive a fall from any height, though of course the occupant would not. This sounds like the exoskeleton version of an adamantium skeleton. The bones will be fine with a drop from any height. Everything else... not so much. | |

| Aug 14, 2018 at 20:27 | comment | added | JBH | Clarification: are we treating the bones as if they were just like stainless steel, or are the bones just like bones in every way other than they can't be broken? My primary issue is flexibility and compressibility. If we're talking about Wolverine's adamantium-covered bones, then jumping off a wall would force the bone through the flesh due to zero compressibility and flexibility. You'd never experience a break, but you'd take greater damage (or, perhaps, more frequent damage) overall. | |
