Sure, but that's like forgetting you have an arm on the left side. If you can move the muscle, your body already knows about it. Take me for example, I can not only wiggle my ears, but I can move each one independently, I didn't need someone to teach me or remind me I could do it, it's just something I've always been able to do.
@@darminatin but he doesn’t forget how to use them. He forgets why he has them in the first place, when he’s living in a world with suspiciously unclawed people.
I was thinking the exact same thing; recurring bouts of amnesia are a critical part of Wolverine's story arc. The poor guy can't even remember his own name half the time, so forgetting that he was born with claws isn't unreasonable. It probably also helps with (though not entirely prevent) item #4: PTSD. On a more humorous note, his amnesia would probably be another incentive to continually earn new college degrees (as mentioned in item #5) since he'll probably forget what he learned in obtaining his degrees (or even forget that he has them at all) every few decades. :-P
@@________dQw4w9WgXcQ Uuuuuummmmm Steven Fry went over this "calcium as a salt and/or/vs metal" thing on "QI", but I just can't grasp anything past Chem 234, I guess. (I know it's likely primary school stuff, mate. My brain just won't retain it, like Leonard from "Memento" with every John G.)
It'd be impossible to coat your skeleton with molten metal. Even with a healing factor, it'd cut off your circulation & kill you. BUT, theoretically with nanotechnology you could reinforce your skeleton at a molecular level. With something like titanium which the body has a better chance of accepting.
I'm just trolling. I'm a nerd slash geek myself. I've made this exact argument myself multiple times. That said I often like to tell my fellow nerds to calm down on occasion. We talk or argue passionately about fictional and or hypothetical topics and situations. Also if you say my nerd comment in the voice of Homer Simpson it's much funnier.
jason newstead well in the comics they had the excuse that adamantium us such a special weird metal that it reacted with Wolverines healing factor in a way that it allowed his bones to continue to produce blood through them, but that anyone without a healing factor would have died from no new blood being created. In other words plot device.
It was also stated the adamantium in his body was slowly poisoning him and this is the cause of his frequent (in battle) berserker rages. (I read that in one of the titles he was in. So many writers over so many years, Logan history gets awfully convoluted.)
Bernard Gilbert truth. Like many long running comic characters. The longer they've been around the more writers and ect get to add to or take away from origin stories or power sets and ect.
all awesome points except the last two. he deals with PTSD by not remembering most of it. and college degrees are apparently easy enough to forge since one hears about it happening fairly frequently. plus, his boss can cover that up for him the first time a parent comes in to complain. "Oh, you found out our teachers aren't qualified? BAM! No you didn't. Mind wipe." Plus, they draw their student base from almost everywhere except Westchester County, judging by the movies. And the books. And the cartoons.
Depends on how the parents feel about their child being a mutant. Recall the heart wrenching scene in _X2_ between Bobby and his family ("You're a mutant, what will the neighbors think"). They may be glad to ship their problem child off to Xavier's.
Yeah, but if they're happy to ship their mutie offspring off somewhere just to avoid neighbourly gossip, they're not likely to be all that concerned about the academic credentials of "that teacher with the point hair" - "who, dear? The blue one?" - "no, the one with bad attitude who chainsmokes cigars. It's important that his BA in Middle English poetry is real."
You're correct that the doctors at the weapon X program should have x-rayed Wolverine and seen he had bone claws in his arms (maybe they didn't?), which was the reason they had to use extra/more adamantium than they thought to cover his skeleton. When they "shaped" them, it was to get the barbs off so they could be retracted more easily. And they also messed with his memories... made him remember things that weren't real to motivate him more, or erase memories that would make him hesitate or refuse a mission.
No, I don't want to be Wolverine. Logan has one of the roughest lives I've seen for a character. Yes, healing factor is cool as fuck, but he FEELS everything. I don't need to feel a nuke, my limbs being chopped off, etc,. I also don't want to outlive everyone I know and love. It's a depressing life.
I'm not really sure that's as bad as it sounds. Possibly in the process of these happening for the first time, but still. Think of it this way, have you ever given a baby solid food for the first time? Everything to a baby is translated as pain, so when getting solid food, they cry as it works its way through their system... it's something they haven't felt before, so they can only express it as though it hurts. Now look at you, (Or anyone, rather) you're doing it every day and not even blinking. Or guys that get tattoos... sure the first one... or ten hours under a needle hurt like hell, but by the time you're at hour 100+, it's business as usual. I would think that at some point, living as long as he has and being in as many conflicts, getting shot probably doesn't feel any worse than a papercut... maybe a mosquito bite, who knows.
He didn't go through all those wars alone. Most of them were with his brother, whom he was close to then. He had a closer connection than any combat team could ever have and that likely took them both through all those wars. He wasn't alone until quite late in the game.
"Specifically: All of the time, in all of the military". Sometimes, blatant butchering of the English language and grammar makes for tremendously hilarious punchlines.
Michael Bullard I don't think Kilgrave's powers are worth being that screwed up in the head, or worth it at all if you like to use sarcasm on occasion.
Michael Bullard If you're Kilgrave nobody can love you since you control everyone around you. That's a guaranteed way to make you a depressed Sociopath.
Do Hulk next. Oh and when Wolverine got his head removed from his body and was still talking, that was in the ultimate universe. So it wasn't cannon. Plus most of what happens requires a little more suspension of disbelief.
The comics know exactly how wolverine got his claws it's a mutation like every other xman he forgets he has bone claws because his healing factor locks away parts of his past as a way to heal from psychological trama it's like you guys didn't read the comics at all
The whole "PTSD-Proof Brain" concept falls apart when taking into consideration that his incredible aggression and rage is driven by the pain of his experiences.
All of this can be explained by the healing factor. It's in the official Xmen Encyclopedia that mental trauma that Wolverine endures is "Healed" by his healing factor, essentially making him forget the horrific events. This explains why he doesn't remember he has bone claws. The claws first manifested during a heated moment and he killed a man with them, at 10 years old, his brain healed over the trauma of ending a life and thus he had amnesia. Any PTSD he experiences is taken care of by the healing factor. Additionally, he's able to survive with metal on his bones because of this same healing factor, it's why there aren't a ton of people with adamantium skeletons, it's only possible with his specific mutation.
Octopi is not a word. Cacti is. "Cacti" is multiple form of "cactus". Octopus is singular, that's why the word exists... A quick search on the internet after he said "octopuses" was all it took.
The ending "-i" is the Latin way to pluralise (eg. "alumni" is a group of more than one "alumnus") but Octopus is not a Latin root so it uses the English (-s) ending for pluralisation. If you wanted to be super respectful of its Greek etmology "octopodes" is also correct but archaic in use.
Merriam-Webster is incorrect. It's an American publication that were US separatists and responsible for the normalisation of many incorrectly-spelled words that are now considered acceptable in the US (and only the US). I suggest you get an Oxford dictionary.
In the "Weapon X" series the doctors are shocked to find his body absorbing more adamantium than expected, Logans ' hands start to itch while in the process tank, then "snikt" his claws slide out and all shits hit the fan.
so you want to be spider Man, I think we've all wanted to be spider Man and it would be funny for you to riff on the impossibility of a radioactive spider giving super powers.
Way too late for this kind of nitpick but when he says "Geckos regenerate lost tails" the gecko he shows on the screen appears to be a crested gecko. Cresties drop their tails, but they do not regenerate them. Once they're gone they're gone forever.
Actually, Marvel does know and has said where his claws come from. 1) He's a mutant, so that's that. 2) They also said Logan and Sabertooth are not exactly human, but rathar Lupines.
Odd as it seems/seemed, the Weapon X team didn't thoroughly check him out before the adamantium injection. They were surprised (dialogue) by the extra metal needed and by the claws. Also, in addition to any trauma-induced memory loss, a significant part of that program involved screwing with subject memories. One of the agents in the program was codenamed Vole, a telepath. Wolverine's surprise over having bone claws becomes plausible when you realize he probably rediscovered them at the same time everyone else did.
and maybe (after full growth), you can attach steel or even replace steel with bones, very slowly:it would take many years as you would have to heal after every procedure
and you could install projectile claws in your forearm length that would shoot out, but they would destroy you hand if you weren't giving the "hey gurl " wave when it happened.
the healing factor is the real problem, lots of vitamin c, sleep and the things alex says. ooooor genetically enhance your self (which probably has to be done at birth....too late for anyone reading this)....maybe the embryonic fluid that creates new limbs in fetuses, feti?
During the time of that bone-claw reveal, Logan was (and still is technically, I think) recovering from a severe case of amnesia. Do you even Wolverine, bub?
1) logan has memory loss, forgot his true origins 2) the adamantium is COVERING his bones not replacing them you can see this in the wolverine when that japanese guy drills into his bone claws after cutting half of his metal claws
To add to the PTSD factor: You are constantly suffering horrific injuries and bouncing right back. Be as powerful as you want, seeing your arm blown off or your flesh torn apart will still mess you up.
1:35 yes but in X-Men Origins Wolverine he got shot with an adamantium bullet and has weird memory lapses, him not knowing his origins is like a major thing in the movies I'm not sure about the comic though..
The only problem with this is two of the movies you mentioned were either resets of the timeline or form a totally different timeline so none of it is connected.
that would be great if they put that in one of the movies like logan is on shore leave with one of the guys in his platoon and just gets completely hammered and tells the guy he served with his great great great great grandfather and the guy refuses to believe him but logan's completely telling the truth it would've been great
Characters: Riddick, Conan, Spawn, Ace Ventura, RoboCop, Constantine, John Wick and Spike Spiegel (Cowboy Bebop). These are cool vids, keep them going.
Also, another thing, you'll need to learn all the languages, literally all of them, wolverine in the comics is fluent in multiple languages such as Japanese, German, Russian, Chinese, Cheyenne, Lakota, Spanish, French and probably a few alien language as well
1. You have amnesia 2. Painful surgery 3. You never grow old 4. Fight your brother 5. Painful claws 6. Anger issues 7. Healing factor 8. Fight in every war in American history(PTSD)
Petty minor objection to the animals regrowing body parts thing . . . not all geckos can regrow their tails. In fact, the type of gecko shown in the video is a crested gecko, one of the kinds that can drop their tail but not regrow it. Just felt the need to share some irony :)
Deadpool's healing factor is a realistic superpower, science is central to Deadpool's origin story, all animals have the power to regenerate body parts, usually to a limited degree, but some species have unlimited regenerative potential, most impressive are salamanders, the group of amphibians that includes newts and axolotls, following amputation of a leg, salamanders can regrow a whole limb from the stump, they can also replace vital organs such as the heart or brain.
Ooh ooh! Next you should explain to us why we can't really run through tunnels painted on the cliff side by Wyle E. Coyote. Or how about how much jail time we'd do if we strapped grandma to the top of our station wagon on a family trip? Fuck, man...
I have to point this out... It is true that certain species of geckos can regenerate there tail, but the specific gecko shown in this video is a Crested Gecko. They can drop there tail if threatened, but they can NOT regrow it. It's not at all important to the point this video is making really, but I'm a reptile girl... I notice.
How about Sub Zero from Mortal Kombat? I need a nice sciency explanation as to how someone is capable of drawing out all heat from the environment or object and then dealing with that excess energy. Also, Ice Powers are.... Awesome. Bet you thought I was going to say "cool."
PTSD affects soldiers that are waiting for battle to occur or in bases. PTSD in advanced hit squads is negligible because they are hunting. Like wolverine.
Wolverine wouldn't know completely about his bone claws, since he lost his memory, from before he undertook the Weapon X project.
Not just lost, but had it actively tampered with. He couldn't trust anything he "knew" for a while there.
Sure, but that's like forgetting you have an arm on the left side. If you can move the muscle, your body already knows about it. Take me for example, I can not only wiggle my ears, but I can move each one independently, I didn't need someone to teach me or remind me I could do it, it's just something I've always been able to do.

@@darminatin but he doesn’t forget how to use them. He forgets why he has them in the first place, when he’s living in a world with suspiciously unclawed people.
Wolverine should know he had bone claws? It's not like amnesia is his only character trait besides aggression.
THANK YOU
Not unless he forgot he has amnesia! A trait which people with amnesia should have because amnesia makes you forget things.
Weapon X wiped his memories, for a LOONG time he had no memory of events prior to being "rescued" by the Hudsons.
He got better?

That one comic where his healing factor is pushed to the limit because they infect him with everything

Why have I never seen this video before. It was awesome and hilarious
wolverine's memory got wiped after he got adamantium
A commonly unknown Wolverine power in the comics is that he can willingly suppress any memories he possesses that he doesn't want to remember
i dont think the argument is that one wants to be wolverine, but that they wish they had wolverine's powers
And remember, adamantium slowly kills him via poisoning. Only his healing factor keeps him alive for as long as he does.
If Logan has such a super healing factor, wouldn't it be impossible or nearly impossible for him to get drunk?
He's also a master of military tactics and unarmed combat
Actually, Marvel does know and has said where his claws come from.
1) He's a mutant, so that's that.
2) They also said Logan and Sabertooth are not exactly human, but rathar Lupines.
I don't really

he didn't go through those wars alone. he was with sabertooth the whole time. cmon guys.
Of course Wolverine is surprised that he has bone claws HE’S AN AMNESIAC
I've heard a lot of people saying they wish they were Scorpion or Sub-zero in Mortal Kombat
Lmao and then you show a picture of one of the only gecko types, an eyelash gecko, that does NOT grow its tail back if it's removed! Lol
Says geckos regenerate lost tails and then shows a picture of a crested gecko which doesn't do that.
During the time of that bone-claw reveal, Logan was (and still is technically, I think) recovering from a severe case of amnesia. Do you even Wolverine, bub?
1) logan has memory loss, forgot his true origins

My favorite ending of a cracked video ever
The only problem with this is two of the movies you mentioned were either resets of the timeline or form a totally different timeline so none of it is connected.
the gecko you showed is actually a crested gecko and they cannot grow back their tails
This reminds me of so many lunch table debates from the early 90s....
that would be great if they put that in one of the movies like logan is on shore leave with one of the guys in his platoon and just gets completely hammered and tells the guy he served with his great great great great grandfather and the guy refuses to believe him but logan's completely telling the truth it would've been great
Characters: Riddick, Conan, Spawn, Ace Ventura, RoboCop, Constantine, John Wick and Spike Spiegel (Cowboy Bebop). These are cool vids, keep them going.
So you put a picture of a crested gecko as an example of how geckos regrow tails... But crested geckos lose their tails permanently...
I thought the whole point of Wolverine's character was that he was not PTSD-proof
All I got from that clip at the end is that Hugh Jackman is in _really_ good shape. :o
Wolverines healing factor in the movies is way faster than the comics.
Also, another thing, you'll need to learn all the languages, literally all of them, wolverine in the comics is fluent in multiple languages such as Japanese, German, Russian, Chinese, Cheyenne, Lakota, Spanish, French and probably a few alien language as well
1. You have amnesia
2. Painful surgery
3. You never grow old
4. Fight your brother
5. Painful claws
6. Anger issues
7. Healing factor
8. Fight in every war in American history(PTSD)
Nano technology can accomplish making you Wolverine
So when he gets cut in half does he just heal from the head down? instead of turning into multiple people
How did I miss Hugh Jackman doing the Bobby Van thing from that movie where he basically hops around for like five minutes without a break? Damn...
Petty minor objection to the animals regrowing body parts thing . . . not all geckos can regrow their tails. In fact, the type of gecko shown in the video is a crested gecko, one of the kinds that can drop their tail but not regrow it. Just felt the need to share some irony :)
I feel like Wolverine's brain is definitely not PTSD proof
Deadpool's healing factor is a realistic superpower, science is central to Deadpool's origin story, all animals have the power to regenerate body parts, usually to a limited degree, but some species have unlimited regenerative potential, most impressive are salamanders, the group of amphibians that includes newts and axolotls, following amputation of a leg, salamanders can regrow a whole limb from the stump, they can also replace vital organs such as the heart or brain.
Ooh ooh! Next you should explain to us why we can't really run through tunnels painted on the cliff side by Wyle E. Coyote. Or how about how much jail time we'd do if we strapped grandma to the top of our station wagon on a family trip? Fuck, man...
Wolverine once revived from a single drop of blood
Youre right.
Musicals are a work of art.
for 3b, you could eat those 3000 calorie-a-piece bars that come in the survival packs
so my brother and I were talking, and decided Wolverine's super power is basically stabbing people.
Geckos regrow their tails
Proceeds to show one of the few geckos that doesn't 😑
I have to point this out... It is true that certain species of geckos can regenerate there tail, but the specific gecko shown in this video is a Crested Gecko. They can drop there tail if threatened, but they can NOT regrow it. It's not at all important to the point this video is making really, but I'm a reptile girl... I notice.
I want to be roy mustang!!! lol, please
How about Sub Zero from Mortal Kombat?
I need a nice sciency explanation as to how someone is capable of drawing out all heat from the environment or object and then dealing with that excess energy.
Also, Ice Powers are.... Awesome.
Bet you thought I was going to say "cool."
Wolverine was hired by professor x to teach class and has no college under his belt. He got his job through knowing someone.
I think in one issue Wolverine regenerates from a single drop of blood 😂
PTSD affects soldiers that are waiting for battle to occur or in bases. PTSD in advanced hit squads is negligible because they are hunting. Like wolverine.
