I honestly think the list of heroes that can pull this off (besides those unreasonably powerful, who are excluded in the OP) is very short. I'm not sure I "trust" that any group of three could do it. "Hope" is a better word.
If everyone's on the first five floors, that's one thing, but if everyone was evenly distributed, it would be a real feat, assuming the building is on the verge of collapsing.
Am I this hero's priority? Because I don't imagine my chances of being saved by most street level characters, along with 1,000 other people, before the building collapses are that great. :P
I would say early Spider-Man would be on my list, mostly because his Spider Sense would help him locate more people much faster than most street levelers.
Well, I was rescued from a burning building in real life. I don't think ANY of what I consider mid-term heroes could really pull this off. (In Marvel or DC) The building I was in was only 3 stories, wasn't collapsing and I am very fortunate to still be alive thanks to some very brave fire-fighters.One thing most folks don't know about fires in contained buildings is you cannot see, at all. I don't say your vision is impaired, your vision is gone. The smoke, is almost certainly instant death if you're in for more than 1-2 minutes max, no human can take that kind of carbon-monoxie poisoning. So, I think you'd better hope that a top-tier guy like Thor or Superman is around.
