[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 4970834, member: 326"] Hey there Khisanth! :) But thats the point, it is that strong. Megasaurs are as proportionally strong as humans. I disagree. Godzilla is going to be as proportionally strong as a human scaled up. He's not going to be weaker. While an ant can lift 50 times its own body weight, while a human struggles to lift its own body weight, Godzilla will also be able to lift his own bodyweight or slightly better (and we have seen him lift and throw other Megasaurs). I think you may be adding a layer of confusion to something that doesn't need anymore math applied. ;) If its 10 times bigger then its 1000 times heavier, but only 100 times as strong (normally). Zilla is probably 16 times bigger which means its 4096 times heavier (about 25,000 tons), but only 256 times stronger. Godzilla is about 8000 times heavier than a T-Rex but is also at least 8000 times stronger. Basically Zilla's bones, muscle and tissue need to be 16 times stronger than a T-Rex. I'll need to go back over Mike Wong's initial artical to determine exactly how much stress they should support and what materials they are equal to. It couldn't support its own weight because of the stress put upon its bones. But that assumes its bones are not super-strong, which they obviously need to be. Which they aren't for Classic Godzilla, which tells us his bones are tougher than steel. I think its possible, but probably not as a biped. [/QUOTE]
