Blogpost 6: Superpowers That We Won't Be Able To Have According To Science

I could think of a lot of powers I would like to have if given the chance. It's as many as my imagination could give me. I am not sure which one to get because I have unlimited wants because each power are unique in their own way. It's important to have a superpower because that's the necessary key to become a superhero. So I want the best superpower so that I could beat any villain that comes my way. Then there superpowers that couldn't be possible for the human body according to science...

In my research I found an article entitled " 7 Awesome Superpowers (Ruined By Science) " by Michael Smathers from the website " Cracked ". The article is about cool superpowers that would best fit a superhero. The problem is there are facts that contradict the superpowers.

The article mentioned 7 superpowers an here they are. The first one is flight, it would be awesome to be able to fly. I'm sure everyone wanted to have this superpower in one point of their lives. It would be awesome and convenient if you were able to just fly to your destinations, it would be less hassle for the person who can fly. But then the problem with that is the speed you have when you are flying, anything that is faster than a hang glider should have a windshield in front because when you are fast, imagine what will it do to your face.

The next superpower is one of my favorites, super strength. When you have super strength, you could basically do anything because you can carry any heavy object, destroy anything that obstructs your path, destroy everything that you hate. It is also a convenient superpower because the possibilities with this power seems unlimited too. Now, let's put physics into the equation, the strength that you have is concentrated in your body so the part that touches with any other object will feel the pressure from that concentrated strength and that's not good. "You can thank the laws of physics, specifically, pressure. Because all of your super strength is concentrated in your tiny little hands, you're basically like a dagger plunging into a watermelon." Says Michael Smathers. It means that the pressure that you have because of your concentrated super strength is very dangerous.

With the current capabilities of an average human being, flying isn't possible. But that doesn't mean humans can't fly, a person who can be an example is Yves Rossi. I have searched for an article and it's entitled " 
‘Jetman’ Yves Rossy Shows Us How to Fly His Carbon Fiber Jet Wing ". by Jason Paur from the website " Wired ". Yves Rossi is a 54-year-old pilot who has been flying for a long time now. He uses a jet pack which is composed of carbon fiber and 4 small engines. He has been exhibiting his jet pack for a long time too, he has used it in the English channel, and the Grand Canyon just to name some of his feats. This is the closest thing we have to human's flying.

The future isn't determined by what we have know, who knows maybe one day it would be possible for human beings to have the power to fly, or super strength without the possibility of killing someone just by touching them or even any other superpower that science dictates we can't do.
