What if Tony Stark built humanitarian robots out of super cheap materials and not a weaponized fleet of mech suits? What if someone could run as far and as infinitely as Barry Allen but at a more human speed? What if you found out that an American president reached power using Charles Xavier-like powers of persuasion. It sounds like a made up version of the Marvel extended universe — yes, the Flash is a DC property, but just go with it — but these are actual, recorded talents that you NEVER hear about.
Recorded at the Comikaze Expo in Los Angeles, Cracked Podcast co-hosts Jack O’Brien and Michael Swaim are joined by Soren Bowie, Adam Tod Brown, Tom Reimann, Dan O’Brien, and Alex Schmidt for a panel about insane real-life powers the world should know more about, then take questions from the audience.
