After having saved her world numerous times, and fought against alien invaders in another universe, the CW's version of Supergirl has understandably built up a list of impressive strength feats. But just how strong is she? Let's take a look and find out!

The answer to your title is *she's as strong as the writers want her to be 😂*

[@justchillin3912]

SpeedForceNation Can lift a million tons but almost got overwhelmed by some cement, smh

[@Potato-cy9gr]

If you’re talking about the ‘cement’ that she was covered in in season 4 that was nth metal, aka an indestructible metal from thanagar

[@dcmarvel.edits_4059]

So your saying that with wonder women and Superman 2?

[@normadgarmez7026]

Exactly. Every powerful character ( Wonder Woman, Starfire, Zatanna) from DC in media always gets nerfed to become the punching bag that way the human heroes end up being the victorious ones.

[@PureChaos69]

Great video! Even though I don't watch Supergirl, I was still curious about her strength, compared to others. And Thanks for having my comment in there, that was pretty cool!!

[@typicalchris7405]

How fast,strong...etc is Clark Kent from Smallville compared to Supergirls superman.

[@maxdrags3115]

Christian Mavolwane Definitely not as strong, and from what I have seen, he is also slower then Supergirl too.

[@JohnCenaIsMyDad]

Clark Kent from Smallville is FTL... what are you talking about? CW Superman isn't that impressive at all, he was fighting Supergirl at full strength and got fucked up. On his speed alone Clark solos CW Flash, Supergirl, and Superman.

[@benjaminan1183]

DarkSydeNegro How is he faster than light.

[@datboymike9650]

DarkSydeNegro no he doesnt

[@datboymike9650]

DarkSydeNegro Barry's would beat the fuck outa him

[@deathstar2386]

how about the part where she push down a giant spaceship filled with alliens thats speeding up out of the earth in season 2 episode 15?

[@theghel1296]

I don't think he can do that since none of the characters ever said how much it weighed nor did they mention the force that it was taking off with

[@limiv5272]

He just estimated the length of a beam as two and a half Benoists, I'm sure he could guestimate the dimensions of the ship if he really wanted to

[@theghel1296]

Limi V the length of it yes but that's because it is something possible to estimate nicely, he couldn't estimate the size of a space ship, not knowing the material and all that so it wouldn't be possible

[@cameoshadowness7757]

Limi V Of BEAMS, and there were already marks on it. We also get a good photo of it to be able to compare it's size to be able to get a good estimate on it.

[@speedydraws686]

They said the ship was accelerating towards light speed. According to Einstein, as matter progresses towards the speed of light its mass increases exponentially and once and object with mass reaches the speed of light, it’s mass becomes *INFINITE*.

[@tragedystrixesagain]

I wish these videos were around when I was taking my physics class lol

[@KageKagemaru97]

How strong is Wonder Woman?

[@ronnieragin2916]

You Mean How Strong is Wonder Woman!

[@KageKagemaru97]

my bad

[@daenite2480]

on par with Superman

[@metauser4244]

Night Hunter L

[@shreyvaghela3963]

Night Hunter not on par with superman but much more skilled fighter...

[@DanieXJ]

My problem with her strength is that, yep, so she lifted the key, and she lifted Fort Roz, but, then in the second season she has a problem stopping the thrust of the refugee's space ship getting sent into space? I mean, I understand that the thrust is big, but, is it bigger than 1,000,000 tons? Make no mistake, I personally love the show, and I've been reading and watching Superman/Supergirl stuff all my life and so definitely know that it varies so widly, not to mention, sometimes it even varies in the same episode, same comic book. And, this was a cool vid, have you ever considered doing Lois and Clark The New Adventures of Superman strength?

[@theghel1296]

Agreed, however her strength (along with various characters in different shows) can be really inconsistent, I still love her tho

[@april3097]

kara zor el is amazing

[@mocha4301]

Absolutely love these vids immediately click on em keep doing great things

[@solgoode1]

She's strong enough to tolerate being in one of the worst written, most poorly done shows in modern history. I feel bad for Melissa Benoist. She's a lovely young lady.

[@musasan3578]

I thought it was good but that’s just my opinion

[@Potato-cy9gr]

I like it lol

[@yaboyshawntv9691]

What's so bad about this show?

[@lillystar898]

I love the show. It's has some really good raw emotional moments and it shows that even superheroes are vurnaruble like us.

[@ronnieragin2916]

FINALLY! A Video About How STRONG Is Super Girl!

[@tycemo707YT]

One feat that was missed was in the pilot when she lifted pr more accurately helped guide a plane into the water without it crashing

[@MrMenace13]

Make a video about Smallville's Superman speed(Flying and running) & strength.

[@BleJd09]

Oh she is the supergirl, she has to be strong

[@m4hblaze]

You should compare the Smallville Superman to Supergirl's Superman.

[@ZegetaX1]

exactly and smallvilles superman would crush supergirl and superman from CW with ease

[@m4hblaze]

True,but Smallville Superman did have 10 seasons to develop so it would kinda be one-sided

[@dontealbert64]

+mahsterblaze what do you mean

[@m4hblaze]

Smallville's Superman had way more time to develop his strength

[@dontealbert64]

+mahsterblaze oh OK I see what you mean

[@socialarmsrace3321]

Love her

[@TheKing-pg7ug]

How strong and fast is _Smallville_'s Clark Kent/Superman?

[@drwfigureadventures]

You say there’s no new show of strength in season 2... she stopped a starship trying to leave earths atmosphere. That’s A LOT.

[@ChillLifeGaming]

Do Clark from Smallville.

[@BRIANONEALSINGLETON]

Ever thought of doing a end of year round up on who's strongest....like a top 10 list?

[@TheNTony19]

BRIANONEALSINGLETON henry cavil superman is winning as of now

[@bugsy42701]

how fast is a CW Supergirl

[@Fazzel]

On CBS they said she was flying at Mach 2 in one episode. They have never said on the CW. In the Cross-over she was keeping up with Flash and he had to do a fast stops and turns to keep her from catching him. So about as fast as Flash.

[@Nwakilla187]

She's as fast as a military F-16 at full speed so around mach 2-3 max.

[@Fazzel]

Also Supergirl was as fast as an intercontinental ballistic missile, which reach speeds of 15,000 mph, or about mach 20, in the episode "Solitude", because she caught up to the missile Indigo launched. Actually Supergirl would have to be faster than mach 20 to catch it.

[@bigpapan.g3245]

She was able to leave earth's atmosphere A speed of mach 23 is needed to counter gravity Not like she did it with *one million tons* or anything

[@shree173]

Misty Oliver she is fastest kryptonian alive.she is as fast as flash,and flash is faster than kal,even in comics flash beats superman but couldn't beat supergirl

[@Codemanlex]

I love your opening theme.. It's kinda telling me about avengers infinity war

[@theghel1296]

Loved the video it's definitely worth watching!

[@fmayolo2279]

Awesome! You finally did it! Two videos I'd love to severe how FAST is Supergirl, and how fast is Smallville's Clark Kent, and maybe even Bart Allen. #BartAllenforFlashSeason4

[@MysteryBounty]

Whoa....You watched all the episodes for Supergirl season 1 and 2...now that takes true strength, think you are stronger than her. :)

[@Fazzel]

Supergirl is awesome. If anyone has a problem with it the problem is with them, not the show.

[@herosjourney8725]

MysteryBounty hahaha I was thinking the same. I lasted season 1-3. Imagine how strong I am.

[@MysteryBounty]

@UCcB1b1h6AnTuHsccrwJJj0w she is cute but my thing is the terrible writing, I can deal with a show or movies that have a message in them, but the lack of any subtly whatsoever is what drives me insane. People don't know how to write subtext anymore, the first villain in the entire show straight up says "On my planet the women serve the men" or something like that, I remember cringing so hard. I loved Legends of Tomorrow and it was full of what I would definitely say is "propaganda" but the show was fun and entertaining enough to get past it. Also the way they brought Superman down to bring Kara up is just disgraceful to a character that has been around for 70 years and she is directly a copy of from the comics. Without Superman there is no Supergirl, the writers seem to forget that.

[@wasi6798]

How strong is CW's Green Arrow?

[@joshplaz8398]

_doctorcomicbooknerd_ lol not strong enough

[@crickster0009]

I'll tell you how strong she is...strong enough to beat superman apparently. 'Rolls eyes in pure disdain'

[@Fazzel]

She just got in a lucky punch.

[@ZegetaX1]

superman would crush supergirl in an instant as he can punch out and lift planets also he could obliterate stars and survive supernova's

[@Fazzel]

When is the last time you read a Superman comic book? Or have you ever even read a Superman comic book? They got rid of that nonsense decades ago when John Byrne rewrote Superman and got rid of all that stuff. Show me anything written after 1986 where Superman does any of that stuff. So, no he can't. And in no comic book you are ever going to find can Superman crush Supergirl in an instant. In fact in pretty much every depiction of Supergirl written, Supergirl is as strong or stronger than Superman.

[@ZegetaX1]

Dennis Bowers because he holds back he even told that to green lantern superman is always holding back while supergirl is at max power

[@ZegetaX1]

Dennis Bowers also the 15 supernovas is modern in superman and there elite

[@johnathondickey1946]

how strong is the thing from Tim story's fantastic four

[@Piplupz01]

Alright then

[@doctor99267]

Piplupz01 01 in Supergirl episode 18 when they had a race Barry was casually running at her speed which is obvious because he needed Her throw him and so had to be in arms reach and would probably triple her speed at that time

[@wisespidey]

Do you have or can you make another KZbin channel teaching people maths and physics!?

[@hanziparish555]

It's always nice to hear some Zack Hemsey.

[@ashleyalonzo9079]

She picked up a submarine with ease. How much does one military fully loaded submarine weigh?

[@arhamzayan9608]

LOL ONLY A MILLION TONS. Superman lifted 200 quintillion tons with one hand in the comics, LOOLLOLOLL.

[@stayfrosty6698]

General: you try lifting a million ton alien space craft Supergirl: BET

[@bmsvg7356]

I’m late af but what about when super girl lifts an airplane I know it’s not her strongest feat but still seams like an important one.

[@quiglid]

She can do whatever is in the script! How does she fly? What is her method of propulsion?

[@codybaggett5329]

I think the fortress key and and theven fort statements were writer hyperbole (mainly because she's definitely struggled with less), but still very impressive.

[@Nwakilla187]

Comic Books vs The World Nice vid bro! Can make a video of THE HULK? :D

[@ThoreClips10]

The Flash told Arrow's team that Supergirl is more powerful than a locomotive

[@taherkhedapa2680]

Love ur intro

[@FoxyBoxery]

Supergirl *lifts a 1'000'000 ton spaceship* Superman *moves 1'000'000'000'000'000 ton tectonic plate* *Supergirls beats superman's ass* Wait, what?!?

[@Fazzel]

Consider that Supergirl didn't just bench press the 1 million ton Fort Rozz. She hurled it out of our solar system call the way to another star in only a year and a half. Voyager just now left our solar system after traveling for 40 years.

[@thefreeencyclopedia7244]

Who here thinks that Clark Kent from Smallville could kill everyone in the Arrowverse?

[@CyrusStratton]

Iron Fist Yeah, everyone except the Flash, unless he's not paying attention. Flash couldn't kill him, but he'd run away.

[@Legend-io4pz]

Iron Fist yup

[@asyriefikmal236]

Nope....

[@asyriefikmal236]

What about Supergirl Vs Superman fight

[@azerisda1533]

To be fair Supergirl can win because she beat supes himself and he even confirmed he was going his hardest

[@katie-cn2oj]

she’s as powerful as the episode plot needs her to be and it sucks. if she was in her own DC movies she’d be so much stronger

[@solomonsamuel5526]

[@xchadx123112]

Is that Deadpool wearing the doctors white lab coat?

[@Doniedaff]

But why does the alien space craft look like a giant pretzel?

[@BrandonKohout]

According to science, that our Earth is 1,000 times of gravity, would mean that if Supergirl weigh 100 lbs. here, she would weigh 100,000 lbs. on Krypton.

[@jonathanjohansen4239]

what about a video for the Tom Welling Superman from Smallville. we are approaching when the show flashed forward, October 2017 then 2018 for the final scene.

[@scottlowell493]

"The beams are about 3 Benoits long" XD

[@jcmiller5927]

You should do a video calculating the strength of the comics version of supergirl.

Can you do how strong is the dceu wonder woman

[@arashvernus8090]

SHE IS MY LOVE

[@FahimusAlimus]

How Fast is Wally West?

[@hockeysnipes3656]

1000000 tones is strong but she was struggling with that a bit. I remember in the super girl show superman said she was stronger than him, which is why that superman isn't all that strong compared to the movie superman neither is super girl. I mean superman dealt with tectonic plates and he was able to do it. I mean supergirl would have to lift a whooping 24 billion + alien aircrafts which weigh what kara lifted (1 million tones) to be able to do what superman did. Also superman just sent batman flying with just a knodge and threw him around lika a rage doll I don't recall kara ever doing that to someone of batman's caliber

[@Tipticklerrr]

Strong enough to make me can't take my eyes of her😂😍😍

[@thebatt6183]

shes a strong one

[@Sereomontis]

You really need to stop saying "about" when you're giving exact numbers.

[@mohammadimtiajali2967]

Why DCU Flash hv White lighting in justice league trailer? does it mean he is much more faster than animated series

[@scottlowell493]

CW established that in Supergirls universe, she is more powerful than superman of the same universe and basically made superman into a lesser character. She was able to give him a beat down in a fair fight. This may/may not be the case on other earths.

[@mine4712]

[@delzi5097]

If You have played infamous second son or First light... You Get super speed with neon powers so How fast is fetch or delsin?

[@encounteringjack5699]

The one thing I don't like is that you used that 1,000,000 tons phrase, but how can you be sure that he actually meant that? Plus that thing is huge! (Or at least compared to her) I don't know, I like when the minimum possible strength is used instead of the minimum calculated strength. Btw I kind of made those up so in case your wondering what's the difference, or what I mean by it, it's that minimum possible strength is the minimum strength that it could be, or like a guess, and the minimum calculated strength is... exactly what it sounds like. You use some calculations to prove the minimum possible strength. So with only minimum possible strength you get an inaccurate number but with minimum calculated strength it's the minimum strength that is shown by close analysis, or calculations. (In case you weren't sure what I meant)

[@CodemanDBZ]

Should go over ms marvel and android 18... would be nice to have your opinion on the two

Supergirl can lift everything, meanwhile Flash is only running at Mach 13.5. It wouldn't surprise me that they would make Supergirl Faster than Flash.

[@Fazzel]

In the cross-over on The Flash when she was mind controlled she was keeping up with Flash. He had to do some quick turns and stops to keep her from catching him.

[@yasserpiedi5657]

[@yaboialex8862]

can I ask you a question? why, at the end of season 3, does Barry not make a time remenate so the time remenate can go in the speedforce but Barry doesn't? I mean, is it possible to do that, just asking.

[@ComicBooksvsTheWorld]

Technically it's possible, but it would get Barry in more trouble with the Speed Force. Remember in the season 2 finale how he mentioned just making a time remnant caused the Speed Force to send a time wraith after him? Plus, season 3 was all about Barry learning from his mistakes and taking responsibility for them. Wouldn't make sense for him to break the rules again after everything he went through.

[@yaboialex8862]

Comic Books vs The World ok, thanks for awnswering

[@stayfrosty6698]

How about episode one where she guided a plane

[@EpicMaster49]

I like your videos but I think that doing the unit conversion is a little repetitive, sticking with one or just not repeating the same number multiple times.

[@satanlover134]

5:30 You failed miserably. Night time powerlevels for Kryptonians vs daytime! She has 30 tons of casual lift force flying in the night, also I think your calculations on that Ambulance were inverted, 9200 phound not killo, that's not 44 thousand, it's obviouse you inverted the conversion of kilo to ph
