| Jul 18, 2019 at 9:49 | comment | added | mLstudent33 | What about a mutant who controls the gravitational pull of whatever he touches? So basically he can also "fly" but actually he is controlling the amount of gravity that the Earth exerts on his body. He or she can also control the force of gravity on any object he or she touches so lifting 6 tons is totally doable when he or she reduces the gravtiy by 100 times or so. This is purely fictional but just found an article on it: gravity control proposed | |

| Jul 18, 2019 at 9:18 | comment | added | Nyakouai | @Hosch250 Quick research returns that Superman " can lift or manipulate between 66 quintillion and 400 quintillion tons". I'm in the kiddy pool of "my Mary Sue is strong". (Bit unfair of me, I'm taking DC, the champions of over-exaggeration.) | |

| Jul 17, 2019 at 13:26 | comment | added | puppetsock | In the SF novel "The Legacy of Heorot" by Niven, Pournelle, and Barnes, there are critters that have a special chemical they can squirt into their blood. It has a huge concentration of oxygen and to-be-oxidized-chemical (ATP?). This allows their muscles to operate extremely efficiently for a while. It means the critters can briefly be drastically stronger and faster. The payback is they generate a lot of heat, so need water to cool off after. Not sure of the science so a comment rather than an answer. | |
