After the Omega Weapon explosion,
Bose, a.k.a. Brainstorm,
has helped protect Swellview with his telekinesis power.
What are you kids doing?!
Saving... the day.
But just how powerful
is Brainstorm's superpower ability?
Did it get a little cloudy in here?
'Cause I think a Brainstorm's a-brewing.
Let's break this down in terms of weight.
It takes a lot of brain power to move massive objects
like cars or buildings.
Does Brainstorm even have that kind of brain power?
Just gotta do a little stretching first.
Let's start small.
A pencil weighs only 0.2 ounces,
which is equivalent to 0.025 pounds.
Basically, it's very lightweight.
For Brainstorm, lifting a pencil should be easy.
If he can focus.
Hey, Bose.
Can't... talk right now.
Yeah, I gotta get back to France.
Wanna roll with me?
Can't. Little busy.
All right.
Hey, did you know that mimes live in hives?
Everyone knows that.
My guy, you still got two more lasers lit.
Be an honor to watch you walk--
Shut up, Boo-Boo Pew-Pew!
Oh, no!
Pretty easy, right? Let's up the weight just a bit.
A normal glass of water is eight ounces,
or about half a pound.
When do we see Brainstorm with that kind of weight?
[shouting]
[grunting]
Oh, got it!
[grunting]
Okay, I'm properly hydrated.
I can fight now!
Not too hard. How about something heavier?
A typical baseball bat weighs about two pounds,
that's equivalent to six medium-size apples.
That might sound like a typical
grocery store run for some of us,
but remember, Brainstorm is doing
all of this with his mind.
[grunting]
Okay, how's that supposed to stop Roy?
Whack him, Bose!
[grunts]
To be fair, it takes a lot of concentration and energy
to lift something with brainpower.
Also, it takes a lot of practice.
The last thing we need is some sort of accident.
One more grunt and I have to change my pants again today.
Okay, enough with the small stuff.
Let's see what Brainstorm is capable of
after some practice.
The average weight of a cat
is anywhere between eight to ten pounds.
Factor in the movement of the cat,
and we're talking serious concentration here.
[screaming]
[meowing]
Ah!
[meowing]
Meepo, don't leave me! You're all I have in this world!
Brainstorm has proven that he's capable
of lifting heavier objects that are also alive.
But what about lifting another human being?
This could be equivalent to lifting anywhere
between 150 to 300 pounds.
This is some serious weight for the mind.
[grunting]
[laughing and cheering]
[evil laugh]
[slow-motion] Yeah!
[grunts]
I got you, boss.
Pillows!
[grunting]
Lifting an entire person is impressive,
but what about lifting a huge weapon like a warhead?
We're talking 2,500 pounds here.
Is it even possible for Brainstorm
to lift that kind of weight?
No, no. Nobody talk to Brainstorm.
Why can't we talk to Brainstorm?
Because he gets distracted
and he drops Big Sudsy on my foot.
No, I do not.
Get it up, get it up, get it up!
Captain Man?
It seems like with some concentration,
anything is possible.
According to Chapa,
an anvil weighs about 5,000 pounds.
That sounds like an absurd amount of weight,
but Brainstorm might be more powerful than we think.
Lift the anvil, it weighs like 5,000 lbs.
Yes, lift the anvil and drop it onto Chest's head.
Okay, but you guys all owe me fresh underwear after this.
Years of intense therapy have helped a little.
[grunts]
Got him!
You were supposed to drop the anvil on Danny Boy.
That would make more sense.
And you owe me new underwear.
[laughing] Ouch!
The most weight a human being has ever lifted
is 6,270 pounds.
Sounds impossible, right?
Imagine doing that with just your brain alone.
Well, it's safe to say a camper could weigh
about 6,500 pounds,
and we've seen Brainstorm attempt this feat before.
Hey, is Bose still driving?
- Driving this hug! - Wait, wait!
- Whoa, whoa, whoa! - Wait, wait, wait!
And before you say,
"Bose, why aren't you driving the truck?!"
What if I told you I still am?
- Next stop: Hollywood! - Yeah!
That's some serious skill!
What could possibly be heavier
than a 6,500-pound camper?
Got him.
That's right, Santa's sleigh.
After extensive research,
we've learned that Santa's sleigh weighs
about 75,000 gumdrops,
which, as it turns out, is extremely heavy.
Add that to the weight of the Danger Force team,
and, of course, the gifts on board.
We're looking at almost 12 million pounds.
Yes, you heard that correctly.
12 million pounds!
If Brainstorm can lift Santa's sleigh,
he can basically lift anything!
- Who's next on the list? - Uh...
- Trent and Mary. - Bose!
You'll have to take us over to KLVY!
I can't see KLVY! There's too much fog!
- We need more light! - On it.
Thank you.
Uh, all right.
Back in a Krampus!
12 million pounds is a lot of weight,
and Brainstorm is just getting started.
As his strength grows, maybe we'll see him lift
whole buildings or even submarines.
Sometimes the weight of the world
is on Brainstorm's shoulders,
but we're pretty positive he can lift that too.
Hey, a Buffalo nickel!
[screaming]
Nope, just a normal nickel.
Worthless.
