remember the opening scenes of Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.Marked.
it's fiction. I think Kingpin is just super strong without special powers?

A lot of SF characters are considered superhuman.Not many people can create fireballs in their palms and throw them
It made me wonder about the limits of "human" characters in superhero media and just action heroes in general.

Abullet to brain/throat/heartwill stop a regular non-powered 'human' hero. That would be the limit of 'human' durability in action movie. For example:Last Action Heromovie.
The limit of 'human' strength is probably breaking chain/padlock barehanded to gain entry, and the limit of 'human' speed is probably outrunning a car on foot. I believe such feats are depicted as impossible for mere 'human' but cmiiw. Endurance or stamina has no limit.
Also typically Marvel stuff with Black Widow doesn't bother me. In the comics she's enhanced through some means, so I just don't think of her as a normal human, although I guess she's just highly trained in MCU.
my limit before my suspension of belief is broken is probably comic book batman level so lots of room lolBatman's superpower is time to prepare. That can overcome anything, even the debilitating effects of continued physical stress on the human body.

They say prep time. They mean plot armor.Eh, it happens to everyone in DC periodically.
There was a science teacher years ago that used superheroes as an example for science. He gave each hero a one miracle rule, then deduced what it would be like for them.https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RequiredSecondaryPowers
For example: The Invisible Woman can turn invisible. Granted. But light would also travel through her eyes, rendering her blind while invisible.

Your science teacher sounds annoying.He wasnt my teacher, but he was just using it as an example to teach practical science to grade schoolers, not to shit on superheroes. He was well versed in Marvel/DC lore. Like the fact that Cyclops head would be ripped from his neck and propelled backwards.

It just sounds to me like all he was teaching those kids was how not to be invited out on the weekends.

Its not like he was telling the kids to constantly compare superheroes to scientific laws and theories. He was just using popular fiction to teach how the laws of physics work. And 7th and 8th graders arent going to keggers.
