No. How the hel is a human being, limited by its physical capabilities, going to act as a long rang force agent, or whatever other stupid anime derived ideas you have?


... odd ideas because they are new ones,
and its true our bodies physical capabilities are hella fuckn limited, for instance

i read somewhere some guy was falling down a rockslide, and came to a stop, but a rock
atleast 500 pounds + came down after him, with a jolt from him brain, he was able to lift it over his head and throw
it outta his way..

In times of extreme stress, your body can lift much greater loads than normal. Put a mother's child under a car and have it fall, she'll lift the damn thing.

The reason our muscles don't exert their full potential is because it would rip the ligaments right off of our arms.

well ofc, that's the potential i want to get to know, its possibly we don't know it so we don't kill ourselves, but still... it'd be nice to know.

Still a stupid idea.

It's not it's possible we don't use our bodies full potentials so we don't kill ourselves, it is entirely so we don't kill ourselves. Most people who do things like lift cars off their children or stop falling boulders or wrestle a bear to the ground end up with severe severe exhaustion and muscle damage afterwards.

It's be nice to know how to turn lead into gold too, that doesn't mean its possible.

I thought it was a pretty good example, as everyone knows its possible, and it has happened, however, the amount of energy required makes it pointless and futile. You waste more money creating the energy than you'd get from the gold.

I'm aware of that.

Cost effectiveness has no impact on plausibility.

Reference the rest of the post, he's talking about things that are possible with the human body and why we don't do them every day.
