    THOR: RAGNAROK is hitting theaters, giving us another epic Marvel movie that features our favorite heroes: The Avengers. This means The Hulk and Thor will yet again be featured in the same movie, giving us another chance to watch in awe as they enact astounding feats of strength. So far, Marvel hasn’t given a straight answer as to which one of these ultra-powerful heroes has the most brawn, even though they’ve gone head-to-head multiple times in the movies and comics. But that ends today, Loyal Theorists! With the power of math, science, and research, I will reveal which Avenger is strongest!

    You need to consider the fact that Hulk had his whole body to use, not only his feet, as you move the leg muscles as well when trying to lift something properly.Thor only used SOME hand muscles, but mainly the thumb, which operates separately from the arm when squeezing . I dont know you, but to me, the ratio of strength to size of muscle is in Thor's favour.

    • @cieliona
      @cieliona Před 6 lety +15

      That's what I was thinking. To add on, if Thor's hand can deal almost the same amount of strength as Hulk's entire body, then wouldn't Thor technically be stronger? Because, as you stated, he only used some of his hand muscles

    I don't think MatPat compared the 2 correctly. When the topic of strongest Avenger rolls around I think what they mean is who has more destructive force behind their attacks, not who can lift more. Those 2 things are completely different. Just because I can lift 60 tons it doesn't mean I can punch with that force.

    I feel as though the fact of what muscles are used has been wrongfully overlooked. You cannot simply compare the force that they exert in these feats. Thor was able to exert that much force with only the muscles involved in closing his hand, as opposed to the muscles used by the Hulk in an attempt to lift the hammer. The Hulk used his upper body and core, which are generally significantly stronger than the muscles in one's hand and wrist.
    tl:dr The comparison used to draw the conclusion cannot be made due to the difference in muscles used.

      If your fingers were broken, could you lift anything, despite the fct your legs are still fine? No. Because if you can't put enough force into the grip to maintain hold, your fingers slip. The limit on your lifting power is the strength of your grip, not the strength of your legs.

      Also, with respect to thor trying to lift the hammer, I think matpat forgot that thor was basically turned into a (granted, very strong and tough) human until he became worth again (as shown by the fact that the big bouncer looking dude was more or less able to go toe-to-toe with him)

    I think I found a problem with your theory. Your ending conclusion was based on the force one of Hulk's feet produced, but when lifting Mjolnir Hulk was using his entire body to try and pick up the hammer. The force he produces when trying to pick up Mjolnir would then be from his entire body. When you compare that to Thor using one hand to crush Tony's suit it can be seen that Thor can produce 3,456,000 pounds of force WITH ONE HAND, not even both of his arms. If I am missing something could somebody please point that out, but looking at it this way makes it seem as though Thor is much strong.

      Vincent Keiper IV You're missing a big point fam. In movies, hulk is seen ripping through industrial material, as well as many of iron man's suits and shit just as easily as Thor. Not to mention, also in the movies and In the comics, iron man's suits are not only able to be disintegrated by a hand, but also by a bullet (which in this case would be weaker by A HIGH amount), a punch from captain America (who is human with peak human performance, so imagine Batman levels of strength), a missile, and many other things. The alloy is obviously weaker than he stated, also it's factually flawed because he compared the alloy to a real life counterpart, which wouldn't technically be a counterpart at all due to the fact that the fictional plot allows this metal to potentially be weaker than stated. A real life source doesn't always apply 100% to a fictional source. In real life. There's more to this but I don't feel like going too in depth.

    Wait what? Why is the conclusion drawn so unfairly to thor? Why are we comparing what essentially is a deadlift ( how hulk generated the force) vs a squeeze.
    I'm fairly sure even people who don't workout knows or at least can imagine that deadlift is the strongest lift that humans can perform with weights. You're basically using your most powerful muscle groups in that movement namely your glutes, hamstrings and lower back. How is that remotely comparable to more delicate muscles of the forearms?
    If anything, assuming that the skeletomuscular construct of both hulk and thor complies with that of humans in terms of force output/ cross-section area of muscle (proportionate to their respective overall sizes) also accounting for joint structure involved in force production then Thor must be stronger than hulk based on the numbers matt postulated.
    Larger muscles in simpler joints generate forces much greater than smaller muscles in more complex joints, so if Thor can generate forces so relatively lesser with a squeeze than hulk can with his lower back and posterior muscles along his legs then it follows that thor would be able to generate much more force under the same movement.

    I've just realised that MatPat is wrong as in the film we see Thor starting to harness his powers without his hammer, and he almost very nearly beats Hulk until the Grandmaster activates his Thor's security chip, electrocuting him. So Thor would've beaten Hulk, and Thor is stronger now he's able to harness the full capabilities of his lighting powers.

    Okay, so, the math you did that Hulk was stronger was based on Hulk crushing the floor vs. Thor crushing Stark's gauntlet. Obviously, Hulk was giving it as much effort as possible, but you can clearly see that Thor crushed the arm with ease. You can't use that as evidence.
    EDIT: Also, the muscle groups were way different. Hulk was lifting with his legs and back, while Thor was just using his hand. Obviously, the legs and back are WAY stronger than the hands.
    Matt's argument is incredibly flawed.

      Backwards thinking. You clearly see Thor angry faced, teeth out and all crushing his arms like he’s out to crush him while hulk is focusing on using his upper body strength to lift the hammer and his feet end up sinking into the floor. Plus it’s flat out a sign when feet end up pulling off more of a strength feet than someone’s arm strength.

    • @EnderSpy007
      @EnderSpy007 Před 6 lety +39

      Exactly. Also, Hulk essentially did a deadlift, which uses the absolute stongest parts of the body to lift something. Thor was using a squeeze, which is far less powerful and is much more delicate. Even if they were both trying as hard as possible, it still would be an entirely unfair comparison.

    • @naor200990
      @naor200990 Před 6 lety +3

      I agree it's not the fairest comparison but the amount the Hulk used with his foot is a bit larger than Thor's, he said Hulk's power is *per foot* which means he used more than twice the power than Thor. It doesn't mean he's stronger for certain but it's a pretty good evidence to back up the theory, in my opinion

When hulk is lifting Thor's Hammer in the Helicarrier he is clearly using many more muscles pulling the hammer with his arms and the force going from his feet into the ground thus digging himself into the tarmac... Thor is only using one hand... clearly using less muscles to crush Iron Man's gauntlet... So Thor's hand can exert 300 thousand pounds of force less than all of hulks arms. There is a little thing for ya Matty boy. Plus in Thor Ragnarok he would have beaten the Hulk but he got tazed and stuff. He doesn't need his hammer so all of your points about him using the hammer to beat the Hulk are now voided

    On the other hand when Thor broke iron mans gauntlet he was using a single hand but when hulk dented the concrete he was using all of his muscles and strength.

      But as stated the hammer it self is not heavy, just those who are worth can lift it in the MCU.But lets says it is roughly 100 to 150 pounds, most "buff" can lift that easy. So yeah the actually action of lifting the hammer can't truely show their powers because of the spell on it not it's weigh.
      So back to the iron man armor. Lets say both hulkbuster armor and the regular iron man armor are made out of the same materials, hulk is shown to crush and tear part of it in certain points of the fight. So from that I suppose they have roughly the same strength.
      I honestly can't really tell which of the two is strong in the MCU but just base off of what Matt and others say about the iron man armor they are both at semi equal strength.

    Because a man's hand can totally compare to all the other muscles.
    I seriously doubt that Thor's wrist and forearm can win against Hulk's thighs and calfs. Take into consideration what was happening. Thor was crushing using his hand, similar to how one would crush a can of diet coke* versus Hulk, who was basically trying to do something akin to a powerlift or a squat. Obviously, the relatively small muscles in Thors' wrist wouldn't claim victory to the entire force of Hulk's lower body trying his damnedest. But considering how close the numbers are, I'd still like to throw my hat into the 'Thor is stronger' ring. If Thor can still get close to the numbers Hulk's boasting yet he's only using his grip, I'd like to imagine a Norse god can hold his own against a gamma ray mix-up.

      Glad someone else thought of this idea...ie. that no person's max strength would EVER be coming from their grip...which is what Thor's strength is measured by here. When he made the strength calculations (for crushing armor, and smashing asphalt), I was actually expecting him to compare wrist strength with deadlift strength. Can't believe Matpat, with all his nerdy calculations, wouldn't have thought of this...
      Long story short, Thor is stronger by these calculations. FTW!
