      Right, because modern machinery isn't set up to function like the 1900s. We don't *have* analog devices around to fall back on, so it would be far worse than just reverting to a time before computers and automation. It would more or less be a reset. And unless we could rebuild analog civilization overnight, civilization would be screwed. And considering all means of communication would be cut (no mailmen are coming to work, and if they did, whose going to use fuel for mailtrucks?), organizing any sort of large reconstruction would be impossible.
      And given the population density and reliance on automation, society in general would just fall apart. It would be nothing like the 1900s. We would be in the stone age, except worse, because nobody would know wtf they're doing, and there'd be no natural sources of food/water near most people to even keep folks alive after factory farms just shut off.

Also to point out he is the master of Ferromagnetism it's his power. He is exceptionally powerful but he's an Idealist.

      Indeed. Magneto has been around a long time, which means various writers have utilized the theoretical limits of his powers over the years. Basically all of the powers in this vid have been done. The liquefying metal, high speed flight, "slime golem" type stuff, ect.. That's all common stuff. However even the more extreme/obscure stuff like controlling a victim's mind, atomic fusion, or invisibility have been done.

      They've done it:
      Magneto sent an EM pulse via the Earth's magnetic field, temporarily trashing the world's electronics. The X-Men went to confront him and in sheer fury, Magneto liquefied Wolverine's adamantium and pulled it through his pores. Jean had to push herself to her brink to keep Logan alive and intact. He has controlled or at least been able to influence people by moving the iron in their blood to certain parts of their brain in a very crude form of telepathy.

    He's definitely used iron filings like a goo to trap Banshee

    Magneto doesn't have unlimited power or finesse. It's entirely possible that he simply doesn't have enough raw power or enough fine control to use some of these powers, such as the fusion thing. It also wouldn't surprise me if the comics have explored some of these. There are instances when Magneto gets supercharged (for whatever reason), and I think there have been instances where a supercharged Magneto has lifted non-metal objects.

At his strongest, Firestorm is a complete master of matter, in all its forms, able to separate and combine particles at will. This makes him unquestionably one of the most powerful characters in comic books.

    In the comics he uses his powers in some of those ways too. He actually did melt Wolverine from the inside out & for a time he melted adamatium into Sabertooth. He constantly has up a Magnetic Force field that blocks him from everything pretty much, not just metals. He regularly shoots out magnetic energy beams. He moves super fast. He does have a degree of mind control too. Some of these powers (like his mind control & super speed) got past down to his son & daughter Quick Silver & The Scarlet Witch but they have a greater degree of control over those individual powers.

      Frankly, I don't think so.
      Earth's iron core is, on average, more than 6000 kilometers below your feet. Since the strength of a magnetic force/attraction between to bodies is inversely proportional to the distance between them *squared*. While Magneto is undoubtedly very powerful, if he was able to create a force strong enough to penetrate over 6000 kilometers of rock and lava and other minerals, I think the effects would be slightly bigger than just slightly tugging the core towards magneto.

    speaking of using train tracks to move fast: in an urban fantasy novel with 'urban magic', the protagonist (matthew swift) can do a lot with a lot of different things but has a semi unique affinity with electricity - to escape from an adversary he couldn't beat, he grabbed the third rail in a subway - which has enough electrical force flowing through it to move a subway car filled with people at a good clip - to move away from that foe - insanely fast as like the book points out "a person weights a lot less than a train"

    I don't think adamantium is melt-able according to the lore. I'm pretty sure once it cools, it can't be melted.
    And you show the frog, but didn't explain that that means Magneto should be able to levitate just about anything.

    • @Dantick09
      @Dantick09 7 лет назад

      Square Squid Studios with enough power he should be able to levitated anything and if adamantium can't melt how was it forged in the first place? Even if doesn't turn liquid I can still conduct current and heat which will be more than enough to cook wolverine.

    • @SquareSquidStudios
      @SquareSquidStudios 7 лет назад +1

      @Dantick09 You should probably read a few more times before commenting.
      First you repeat what I said and then ignored that I said "once it cools".
      So after those 2 comments, it is reasonable to assume that your comment about wolverine cooking, might have been with the assumption that I was claiming otherwise... which I didn't.
      But as a side note... it wouldn't kill him. Not while he still has his powers anyways.

      1. Diamagnetic materials can still be levitate by sufficiently strong enough magnetic fields. Take water: H2O has a more + side (the H that's lending an electron) and a more - side (the O that's borrowing an electron). That for instance is how the frog is levitating, but just about all substance has a somewhat unbalanced charge based on its atomic configuration.
      2. Adamantium does not liquify in heat. Not even the sun, not a plasma blast, never. It can be liquefied only by antimetal vibranium or extremely high level matter manipulation/reconfiguration (Magneto, Molecule Man, Beyonder). So, he's still right, Magneto could create a field to heat up the liquefied adamantium and pull it through every skin cell Logan has. Pretty awful indeed.

    In the comics, he has extended way beyond moving metal and generating electricity. He has shown being able to manipulate gravity, rearrange the atomic structure of things, generate impenetrable force fields, perceive tachyons and subatomic particles and antiparticles, turn invisible and even generated a wormhole once. His power is utterly insane. Narratively, he is also a very relatable villain who acts according to a fairly honorable code of conduct. He is undeniably my favorite villain.

    • @DarthRayj

      The inconsistencies of his powers often get linked to his mental state being highly unstable (depending on the writer) so they do have at least a somewhat reasonable explanation for why he doesn't do feats like this all the time.

    So if Magneto can fly, then based on what you told us in the "Why you don't want the power of flight" episode of Because Science, that means Magneto is immune to temperature, does that mean he could survive lava? Or is heat not the only thing that makes magma burn things? By the way, Please do an episode about: "Could Saitama break Luke Cage and beat The Hulk, both in the same punch?"

      Kay Aldren i hate to break it to you but scientifically everything has a melting point. So if a metal can be melted down once, it can be melted down twice. Adamantium has a melting point of 15,000 degree Fahrenheit according to william stryker. So if you heat adamantium to 15,000 degree it will melt. Because science

      Gilbert Ortega While I agree, there was something they said it was much harder to melt a second time, sorta like, you melt it, cast it, and then it’s unable to be melted at the same temp. I don’t know how the science behind that might work, maybe the way it crystalizes or something.

      Our Rotation and Orbit are mostly based on Gravity, though a recent discovery (2016) stated that they may have found a Neutron Star or Black Hole with a magnetic feild so powerful it basically equals infinite Gravity(if i can find the study i'll link it.)
      He could technically Reverse our Magnetic Field though through any number of way's, causing satellites to fail and most electronics. Alternively he could make the core spin the opposite direction which would kill everyone and everything.
