    If his legs are strong enough to hold up a mountain the he should be able to leap the Ocean or even jump into low orbit at the very least.

    I like him as a character, I just hate how much PIS  he can generate depending on what is needed of him in a story

    @The Stegman:Oh! Sort of like how Roy Harper could magically fight like a martial arts GENIUS whenever he took drugs and somehow trick the Justice League into letting him go on a rampage where he killed someone AFTER attacking Green Arrow AND burning down his house then possibly killing a pimp with a gritty scowl on his face?

    There are lots and it happens in almost every comic. Captain America dodging bullets at point blank range is pis. Wolverine being able to fight toe to toe with Hulk is pis.

    @Enosisik: well..Cap dodging bullets isn't pis, he has every sense enhanced to perfection, his reflexes are so acute he can dodge them, also Wolverine fighting hulk...I can see it happening, his healing factor allows him to take a ton of damage, however him BEATING Hulk would be fishy

    Dodging some is fine but If he were to dodge ten guys with mechine guns at point blank range then yeah that's a little bit if pis.. Let's say Batman then. Batman is Olympic class 'normally' and there is no sprinter in this world that can out run bullets.

    I had a very old comic of the Hulk having a leaping distance of three miles. In other words he sort of bunny hopped away. Now the Red Hulk dumps Thor and leaps to earth from the moon. Thats 90,000 miles plus. Gravity or no gravity. That is PIS Over-dose or what.

    Yes, Hulk can jump into space. He once jumped so high he almost achieved stable orbit.

    Didn't Hulk basically Jump back to Earth after planet Hulk and the start of WW Hulk? To me if you can jump into space then you can basically fly. I don't have a problem with them jumping that high but the landing .

    Hulk will have to jump upwards without stopping and reaching beyond 25,000 miles per hour in the process. If he can do that then yes. If not. then no.

    Any math wiz out there want to crunch the numbers and figure out how much force it would take for a standard 8'foot tall 2500lbs, Hulk to do this?

    @Enosisik: Had done in already in some other thread. But imma keep it simple this time, just gonna use what @Supreme Marvel: said. So basicly he needs about 11'500 m/s of initial acceleration. 2500 lbs = 1135 Kg. 11'500 * 1135 * 9,8 (value for earth gravity) = 130'000'000 Newton of force required, the real value would be higher since @Supreme Marvel: value doesn't take air friction in addition. Anyway he requires a ludricrious ammount of strength to do that sort of jump, saying his legs are 3 times as strong as his arms it would be like benching 4'400 tons (not sure if the conversion is good).

    But ya no need to be math wizz just need your physics.
