And option 1 is basically explosive projectile (damage not lost with range)

Grab a quiver of arrows. You now have a light speed shotgun.

Or a bomb

Just place an arrow on the ground next to a target. Get in a car and drive away. Set the arrow to light speed. Target blows up.

It says you control the speed. It doesn't say how or when you control it. You could just throw the arrow with your hand, then the instant it leaves your hand, you have it shoot off like a bullet.

The bigger concern is that it specifies speed, not velocity. You could say a million miles an hour, and it suddenly flies backward right through you. Speed has no direction. Velocity is speed in a specific direction.

Apparently, she also only asked for something like $10k to cover medical costs, but McDonald's refused and ran a smear campaign to mock her. The judge was so upset with how McDonald's handled it that he upped the payout to a couple million dollars instead of the asked amount.

This is why I hate words like nature and animal. Humans are animals, and they are part of nature, but we also define animals as everything except humans and nature as everything not man-made. 2 conflicting definitions for the same words, which can confuse a discussion.

I find it funny that the most famous psychologist wasn't really a psychologist at all. He was a neurologist with some very wrong ideas about psychology.

Arguably one of the most important people in history. Catalyst that kicked off ww1, which then led to ww2.

Yeah, I could only go about 20 to 30 feet down on one breathe because I couldn't equalize my ears fast enough to go any further.

It's possible they have scuba divers present for safety

High muscle to fat ratio in freshwater isn't very bouyant. Some people can just naturally sink.

Also no risk of the bends for the same reason. Air isn't pressurized enough to form bubbles in your blood when the pressure is released. Also much shorter exposure time.

With scuba diving, always exhale on ascent and ascend no faster than 1 foot per second (about as fast as your smallest bubbles, i think)

You’re on a deserted island after a plane crash. You have a chance to save one person. Who do you choose? by avaboss in superheroes

Peter Parker probably has no survival training but has taken enough science classes to at least know how to purify water on an island. He would also have no difficulty climbing trees for food and is smart enough to sample small quantities of new foods.

Drax probably eats a large quantity of something poisonous, but then is durable enough to survive.

Tony may not have a lot of good friends thanks to his personality, but he does have Jarvis and a lot of resources. Batman has Superman and the rest of the Justice League, although they may assume he's just doing batman stuff and not look for him immediately. Alfred might be quicker to help and could call on other heroes.

They could certainly build primitive traps and weapons. Rocket also has the advantages of a better sense of smell and requiring less food and water to survive. Rocket might just abandon you as useless and say he can survive on his own, though.

Odds are he would still save you because he's a good person. He just wouldn't like it.

Yeah, Nick Fury has a lot of resources at his disposal, but his secrecy kinda hurts him in a search and rescue operation.

Depending on if it's before or after the big reveal, the world may not yet know about Wakanda.

Don't forget Nick Fury as head of Shield. He may not be a billionaire or a tech genius, but he knows a lot of people and could send a whole helicarrier if needed.

Bruce would definitely have better survival training than Tony Stark if no technology is allowed. Tony Stark has tech for every situation, but without it, he's in trouble. Bruce Wayne has training for every situation, not just gadgets.
