Ranking Superhero Catches from Most to Least Deadly Using Physics Concepts

What do superhero rescues have to do with real physics—and why does how fast someone is stopped matter more than how strong the hero is? In this video, we compare different superhero “catch” scenes to analyze the role of impulse and stopping time (Δt) in determining force. We'll analyze examples from Superman saving Lois Lane, Spider-Man catching Gwen Stacy, and even Tony Stark being caught by his own Iron Man suit (That's right, Tony Stark is a damsel in distress too). We break down why some rescues look gentle while others are deadly—and what physics has to say about it. You’ll learn: What impulse (Δp) really means in physics Why shorter Δt means larger force, even with the same momentum change How Superman’s long stopping time contrasts with Spider-Man’s sudden stop Why nets, airbags, and crumple zones save lives How comic book writers accidentally teach (or ignore) Newton’s laws This video is ideal for: High school and college physics students Teachers looking for engaging classroom examples Homeschool science curricula Anyone curious about the real science behind superheroes No advanced math required—just clear visuals, real clips, and practical physics.
