Newtons impact penetration laws would imply that the iron plate could only have reached space if it had turned sideways to intercept the air edge on or was deformed into an elongated shape. (which I determined to have been possible from some crude tests that I would like to repeat.) Likewise the air would stop the hulk if his cross sectional area intercepted his own mas of atmosphere; so assuming the hulk is a similar density to normal flesh he would need a length (height) of at least 10 meters to punch through.

There was only one problem I could find with this episode. You said that if he was able to jump into space and out of the solar system, that he would be floating out in space "naked because his pants burned off". If you know anything about the hulk you should know that his pants are more indestructible than he is. Actually, the genius in the Hulk comic was talking about the incalculable strength of Hulk's pants.

So if you’re nearby when Hulk claps, you die or go deaf. You’re close enough to see him launch into space, you die. Too close when he transforms and goes into a rage, you’re definitely due for a trip to the ER. He is singlehandedly the best and worst Avenger. 😄

[@chaosryans]

With the force of shockwaves, it implies he moves way faster than the speed of sound when he claps, meaning that if you are near when he claps you probably won't get to see the motion. XD

[@ashleyferguson3115]

Chaos Shepperson so you won’t even realize that he’s why you went deaf? 🤣🤣🤣 analyzing his powers is just funny.

[@chaosryans]

Ashley Ferguson it is rediculous. I was thinking about how jumping works, and it involves accelerating the body upwards and letting the momentum carry upwards. So to launch at escape velocity means from a squat he basically moved his torso from 0 to a portion of light speed within a few feet.

That is also what destroyed the deathstar, they just have tech to store the energy from his jump for a while, but eventually, boom.

[@WarlandWriter]

It's funny. I was thinking about the issue you mentioned on your last video, about the conservation of banner's momentum when leaving the planet. Assuming that Hulk weighs about 10 times as much as an average human male (800 kg), the maximum speed when the Hulk jumps - 11200 km/s - gives him a total momentum of 8.96*10^9 kg m/s. This change in momentum would also be transferred to the earth, meaning that the velocity change of the earth v=p/m=8.96*10^9/5.972*10^24=1.5 fm/s. A little over one femtometer (10^-15)m/s. Guess that on a global scale the hulk is puny after all ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Oh yeah, that was funny somehow. What I found funny about that, is that the nuclear explosion created by the Hulk's jump is probably more destructive than the force of the jump itself. And - I have to admit that I haven't seen the movies all too often or recently - I think we see a similar thing happen in the movies as well, where the hulk just uses his raw force to smash stuff, only occasionally blowing vehicles up by deliberately crashing them into one another. But as is demonstrated here, by using physics, hulk could do so much more with his power. If only Banner and Hulk worked together to smash stuff, they could be all-powerful. Now hulk is just wasted potential. (Yeah, the guy that literally punched time is wasted potential, shut up.) Another thing I thought of: Kyle, you mentioned that Banner would not be able to move once he got to the vacuum of space, but I think Banner is in the unique position where he can actually change his momentum applying external forces or removing mass from his body (such as undressing or ripping off a limb). This is depending on whether he can control his transformations perfectly, can transform partially and the mass of the hulk's limbs actually increases, but let's assume that for a second. If banner is floating in outer space, and he kicks back with his hulk-legs, the legs gain some backward momentum, and the rest of his body gets an equal amount of forward momentum. When a regular, non-shapeshifting human is floating in space, these momenta cancel each other out once your legs are fully stretched and you will be still in space again. However, if Banner kicks back with hulk-legs, and when they're going fastest, transforms them back into his human legs, his legs will lose some momentum (as momentum is the product of velocity and mass), whereas his body still has the same momentum as before. This means that there is a net change in momentum over his entire body, allowing him to 'swim' through space.

I would like to point out The hulk never explicitly ripped apart or even dented adamantium. While Wolverine's bones are coated in the metal, from his ability to retain flexibility in his back it is clear each vertebrae remains independent, meaning the hulk most assuredly ripped apart the cartilage/ligaments/muscles/etc that hold those bones together, but he never explicitly damaged that metal.

I'm gonna be a bit nitpicky here, but I know you love it. The title of the episode, as well as the stated premise, differs from the content discussed. Namely, jumping into space, or reaching space in general, is different than reaching escape velocity. To jump into space, The Hulk would only have to reach the Kármán line, the definition of the boundry between earth's upper atmosphere and outer space as recognized by the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale, which is 100 kilometers above sea level. After his entire body passes that distance from earth, he could fall back to planet and still have jumped into space, no flying through the endless void for all eternity required.

[@seanpeery7780]

Nitpicking the nitpick. The question proposed is only "can he". So demonstrating that not only can he dot whatever it is, but more so, sufficiently answers the question. Making the title still, technically correct. The best kind of correct.

[@cirelancaster]

I was going to comment on this, I was very confused when I saw the title and he started talking about escape velocity. A better title for the video would've been "Could the Hulk Jump to the Moon?" or "Can the Hulk Planet Hop?". Or if they kept the title they could've taught about how much acceleration it would take to get to various points, such as the Karman Line, the ISS Orbit, and even GEO. They could even talk about how much weight the Hulk could carry with him into space and then throw into an orbit (although it would have to be less than his mass otherwise he'd stick himself in orbit too).

Wolverine's spine isn't a solid, adamantium rod though so your math there is way off. Using your logic, breaking a humans spine would be AT LEAST as hard as breaking a femur. But spines are segmented, not solid bone (or metal). So Wolverine's spine is still only as strong as the ligaments and muscles holding it together.

I think he was implying that the adamantium coating made wolverine’s spine effectively a rod, and that the calculations were going to do what were needed for the episodes

[@spcraftsman2656]

About wolverine spine, it is not a hunk of adamantium. There are pieces of bones attached together with muscle and ligaments that make up a spine. So wolverine spine would be a spine made by connecting bones plated with adamantium, connected with humanly muscle and ligaments. Ligaments and muscles are not even strong as iron, graphene is far away.

[@tiacho2893]

Yeah, comic book companies do not normally have physics advisors on staff and continuity is not a universal concern. Look at the multiple retcons and DC's multiple universe wide revisions. I think the most difficult thing is not achieving the actual escape velocity (Hulk comic book logic) but achieving the escape velocity in the distance from bent knee to straightened knee. This is in comparison to space craft that have extended periods of thrust to reach escape velocity. I am assuming that the increase in altitude does not play a significant role in reducing escape velocity (though I may be wrong). Assuming that the initial velocity is at rest (0) and the final velocity is 11.2 km/s, and the extension of Hulk's leg is 1m (for simplicity) then the acceleration is 62.7E6 m/s/s, using v(2)^2=v(1)^2+2aD. It is no where near Planck Acceleration but I doubt that it is possible for any physical object. It is beyond me, but I wonder what is the largest acceleration recorded at the LHC for comparison.

If we're talking about how strongly they have to 'grip' on Hulk, they need to be literally be at least as strong as him.

In order to stay on his hips, they need to apply enough force to compensate for Hulk's upward force, thus, staying attached to his hips.

Question being, dialing down the Hulks strength to the average strength of a person, how easy was it for Hulk to throw a tank? Would it be like an average person throwing a bicycle? Or would it be equal to throwing something even lighter? Thanks. Take Care and Be Well.

[@seanpeery7780]

It would depend on how angry he was. In world breaker mode his steps (without trying) shake Manhattan. Meaning that for Hulk in that state, walking through Manhattan is equivalent to a human walking on a glass coffee table. So how easy it would be for you to do x with the coffee table, that's about how easy it would be for the Hulk to do that with All of Manhattan. At world breaker Hulk, throwing a tank is close to throwing a strand of hair, it wouldn't even have the density necessary to move as fast or as far as Hulks upper limit would allow with a denser or larger object. In the movies though, he is only at the level where he is jumping several miles at a time. Short of doing acutal math we can assume that he is operating at a level that is best described as metal to him feeling like how cardboard is to us. So the tanks would just be large cardboard boxes.

Hulk can use a Thunderclap to also generate thrust. At least with some atmosphere.

[@wumbocalypsenightofthewumb2486]

Pretty sure hulk wouldn’t die in space from lack of oxygen since I’m fairly certain he can breathe in both outer space and underwater in the comics I mean he has fought on the moon before

[@byjars3248]

He adapted to breath underwater but yeah, he wouldn't die

[@protorhinocerator142]

He can't breathe in space, but he can hold his breath for a very long time. If this were to happen in a comic book, he might pass out and then land on an alien planet and start breathing again.

[@peterjobb8938]

I've read that his gamma energy pool is infinite, he just wasn't able to channel it in the movies properlly or at all (eric bana's hulk at the end maybe) so we've seen nothing of his potential in cinemas. And he was still crazy strong there. Just something to add to the math and to realize his cannon strenght/power level I guess

[@dolphinwizard6804]

[@DodgeStealthRtTTInMetallicSand]

So if his pants didnt burn off, could he throw his pants hard enough in the opposite direction in order to come back to earth.

[@tiagotiagot]

He could probably spit with enough strength to propel himself in any direction he wants; hell, he could probably spit with enough strength to make his mouth a nuclear rocket for a few moments if he manages his saliva well.

I was thinking hulk augment his jump and control where he land by flapping his arms. Sounds ridiculously cartoonish but he is incalculably strong and powerful. Provided he can generate enough speed with each arm swing it maybe possible. Also if clapping his hands ✋ could cause shockwaves,its also concievable that may also be able give an extra push.

[@sigiltech]

I've been thinking about how to calculate the initial velocity needed to breach the atmosphere. The drag equation is F = 0.5 * rho * v^2 * C * A where F is drag force, rho is air density, v is speed, C is drag coefficient, and A is (usually) the projected frontal area. Now, for speeds near Mach 1, the drag coefficient depends heavily on velocity. However, when traveling at several times the speed of sound, the drag coefficient levels off to become roughly constant. For a blunt object such as a sphere (and, presumably, the Hulk), this hypersonic drag coefficient is around one. The important thing, though, is that the drag coefficient is essentially constant for objects traveling many times the speed of sound, e.g. at escape velocity or faster. So what happens when we travel some infinitesimal distance Delta_d? Let us multiply both side of the drag equation by Delta_d. The left side of the equation becomes F * Delta_d = - Delta_E or the infinitesimal change in kinetic energy (the energy change is negative since the force opposes the object's motion). On the other side of the equation, we can combine rho * A * Delta_d = Delta_m which gives us the total mass of air that we have to push out of the way in order to travel the distance Delta_d. The full equation then becomes - Delta_E = 0.5 * C * v^2 * Delta_m and since kinetic energy is 0.5*M*v^2, where M is the mass of the projectile, we can re-express the equation as Delta_E / Delta_m = - C * E / M which is a differential equation. Solving this equation gives us E_f = E_i * exp( - C m / M ) where E_f and E_i are the final and initial kinetic energies, C is the drag coefficient, m is the total mass of air that must be pushed out of the way, and M is the mass of the projectile. Using E = 0.5*M*v^2, we get v_f = v_i * exp( - 0.5 * C m / M ) or v_i = v_f * exp( 0.5 * C m / M ). If we want to punch through the atmosphere, then the total mass of air to move is m = (1.03 kg / cm^2) * A where A is, again, the projected frontal area. The MCU Hulk is a little over 8ft tall, so let us assume that the Hulk is 2.5m tall, 1.0m wide, and 0.5m deep. Jumping straight up, then, gives A = 1.0m * 0.5m = 0.5m^2 = 5000cm^2. We don't know the Hulk's mass from the movies, but I've read that in the comics it ranges from 1000-1400 lbs. Let's assume, then, that the Hulk weighs about 700kg, or more than 1500 lbs, to give him the best chance of punching through the atmosphere. The final two numbers we need are the drag coefficient (we will assume C=1, the value for a lot of blunt objects) and the final velocity, which we will take to be escape velocity. Plugging in all the numbers, we find that v_i = 39.6 * v_f = 443 km/s. Of course, this is in the best case scenario; if the hulk is a bit less massive, say, 500kg or around 1100 lbs, then the required initial speed is around 170 times escape velocity, or 1900 km/s. Fortunately, this is still nowhere near relativistic speeds, but . . . yeah. Moving through air takes a whole lotta work.

[@stlong001]

I’ve thought about this one in years past, and I’ve always guessed the main problem isn’t if hulk can generate the strength, but if the earth could provide a strong enough platform. The mental image I get is a kid trying to jump off of a trampoline from standing still. Could the earth provide enough resistance for the Hulk to launch himself with a jump is the question I have.

[@heisenbergvk]

Even if the hulk could in reality release that much evergy from his legs is there really any platform that would be able to support that much pressure? I mean the ground would certainly break under that much pressure and wouldn't that result in a significant energy loss? Or would that energy loss be insignificant in front of the hulk's incredible might? And if i make it into footnotes then fuck yeah! Love your show!

[@mortisCZ]

I thought the same but all that matter would need time to move away and compress so if the Hulk released his energy in a frame of just a few nanoseconds, he would lift off even before the platform could start to properly deform and it would just go nuclear dozen nanoseconds later. There would be significant energy loss but the faster You release the energy the smaller that loss would be. If he tried to perform his jump in thousandth of a second, he would go practically nowhere, just punch his feet through the platform and flop some short distance away.

[@IamnotJohnFord]

Hulk is use to jumping miles at a time. Each time he does this I'm sure he compresses whatever surface he's jumping from. It only means that he will wind up jumping from a newly created hole instead of the original surface. Depending on the level and consistency of the bedrock, he would be jumping an extra few feet. Not really a significant difference compared to the distances he can reach. Besides, whatever surface he jumps from is gonna explode, and earthquakes will occur. Heck, he probably has started a volcano or two during his existence.

[@jwhite5008]

He will probably cause an nuclear explosion similar to the one that killed dinosaurs, but concentrated - so immense that it would be the explosion itself that he will be jumping off of. He won't just jump - rather the air around him will become superheated plasma, making him into a rocket temporarily. With such energies and speeds he might as well be just climbing air as if it was solid.... somehow. It's not possible to output this amount of energy in such small volume so fast anyway. This is simply a "shooting a cannon to the moon" question, with Hulk being cannonball. At very high speeds air is solid, a lot of speed is lost to literally compress its molecules, so even more is needed, and even more is lost. This generates insane amounts of heat, radiation, light etc. I'm not sure if any kind of theoretical material is able to withstand such heat and not be vaporized - probably, not. Hulk will be invariably immensely irradiated too, anyone ever coming anywhere near him will quickly die of radiation sickness. That is if the jump itself does not kill every human altogether.

[@IamnotJohnFord]

Well, Hulk has hit objects hard enough to have them leave Earth orbit. And, he has jump almost into low orbit. That was long ago when he was weaker. He could do it, but Banner's persona probably keeps him from doing it.

[@Wingdnadlla]

yo that turning green and yellin at yourself had me ROTFLMAO

[@anthonydavidson6139]

Wouldn’t hulk jumping in the direction of the moon or sun reduce the escape velocity needed due to them having there own gravity pulling? Also he could never reach escape velocity. The earth isn’t solid enough of a material for him to jump off of. It would be like a cricket trying to jump on water.

[@Takao0815]

Anthony Davidson to " The earth isn’t solid enough of a material for him to jump off of. " hulk has superspeed and can increase it. The breaking ground takes time. in the same way running flash on water.

[@twice1962]

If Hulk jumps, then removed his pants and throws them at the floor as he reaches the Apex, he could perform a double-jump to jump into space...?

[@mjolnirgod]

I think Kyle's comparison to Project Plumbbob was apt, and shows us why the ground would not need to be able to support the jump. Hulk is basically adding energy to the ground, enough energy to be comparable to a very large explosion. He would be flung into space by the force of the blast, which, while not a jump in the traditional sense, would accomplish the task easily.

[@ERROR-ne7cd]

I was thinking after reading the title, " Of course hulk can jump into space, he's basically a god in the comics". But I forgot....this "Because Science".

[@Duraludon884]

In Total Drama: All-Stars, Alejandro's legs fall asleep and don't wake up for a long time, so he spends the entirety of the episodes standing on his hands. Would this be any kind of possible?

[@victorsandeen2694]

It's probably some sort of paralysis.

[@limemobber]

You did this completely backwards. The first assumption is that given enough time and anger the Hulk could jump into orbit. Limitless strength means he could do it. BUT..... Unlike a rocket that pushes itself upward through the air the Hulk generates all the necessary force in one instant while jumping. So, the real question is actually simple. Is there anywhere on Earth that the Hulk could jump from where the ground would survive his jump and allow him to jump with enough force to reach escape velocity. It does not matter if the Hulk is strong enough, if every time he jumps into space what he really does is jump several miles into space while leaving behind a massive blast crater from the jump.

[@shreyanshanchlia]

The escape velocity will probably be less because earth will also be pushed back if u are considering such high amounts of energy show the escape velocity will certainly be a little less.

[@Katerine459]

Set aside for 1 hour. 2. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.

[@josephstalin6860]

1st thing Kyle; the Hulk doesn't need to breath or even eat or drink ever while in the Hulk form. 2nd thing Kyle; the moment he jump up and caused the nuclear style explosion, wouldn't this amount of energy being released at once cause a shift in the rotation of the earth, or even worse break the earth or even the state/country/continent that he jumped from. 3rd thing Kyle; I love your channel and videos, you are definition of intelligence and i wish you were my teacher for every year of school. 4th thing Kyle; if the Hulk is able to physically tough time, then could he time travel or cause the end of the universe Video Ideas 1(The Science of the Predator; preferably after the new movie)-> you already did the science of the Xenomorph 2(Could Thor throw or summon Mjolnir thru earth or a star) 3(Could Hulk move the earth out of orbit of the sun or change the distance of the earth from the sun by any means; a punch, ground pound, etc) 4(Could a force user stop a star ship from going into light speed)-> might not be able to answer this one 5(Having all the knowledge in the universe vs Having all the power in the universe)-> power=strength, speed, energy and matter manipulation, etc

[@KingBongHogger]

I don't think he would be able to unless he starts his jump on a titanium or tungsten plate. Ever try jumping or running in sand? Your feet sink and you barely go anywhere. Hulk would turn the ground to dust and his feet would just sink. Sure, he'd get some hang time, but even solid rock wouldn't be solid footing under that kind of force.

[@jong2359]

Want to know how powerful the Hulk really is? Really, really is? Here's a relatively recent feat: The Hulk, at the end of the World War Hulk storyline, when he returned to Earth from Sakaar more pissed off than he had ever been before, fought the Biblical Angel of Death, the Creeping, slay every first born son, Death, a creature with the power of a million exploding suns (a.k.a. The Sentry), to not just a stand still, but started to gain ground. The Hulk, when angry enough, can literally defeat death itself. And people wonder why the heroes and villains of Earth collectively shit their pants when the Hulk comes calling.

[@Sefilenginar]

Given the distance he must create and apply the force to jump is maybe a meter or two, (from squat to standing posture) the material he's standing on should be able to create the reaction pressure by compressing and providing that peak force within that very short distance under about the area of bottom of his feet. There is no common everyday material that can do that, so whatever he's standing on, be it asphalt, concrete, steel, etc. he'd be limited to maybe a few hundred meters vertical capability at best. He needs either to have VERY big feet (large area, less pressure), to be VERY light (low mass, low reaction force) or to be VERY tall (long legs, less acceleration, less reaction force) to be able to pull this off, preferably a combination of those. Another way to look at it could be to imagine how deep would a 1 ton object harder than anything and unbreakable, in-stretchable, would penetrate solid earth if it was thrown at it with that speed? It could easily penetrate straight through Lithosphere, all the way to the Mantle.
