This is directly contradicted by the comics and real world science wouldn't matter in that case.

The part where he mentions that the shield would melt at a less temperature than when it was first forged. There is one key thing wrong with the video though. Under the conditions of the video.which sound very reasonable to me.5 seconds.probably. That could be considered as a point to explore further. or so they say).ĭespite the big difference in energy output, one can still argue that the explosion was spread out over a huge area (much of it is probably dissipated without even reaching the vibranium) so im not sure the exact energy absorb per unit area. But im guessing it would be more than just a kiloton of bomb (since they are blowing-up an island.

I don't know the exact amount of bombs used by Roxxon to blow up the island where a reserve of Vibranium was found. I read somewhere that you can overload the vibranium bonding with (mechanical/kinetic) energy which will cause it to explode in the process.Īccording to some fan-based Marvel wikia, an unspecified amount of bombs were once used to blow up a considerable reserves of naturally occurring vibranium (referenced to Iron Man Vol 1 120-121). So in your scenario, that would be ~35 Megajoules of energy output released in five seconds.įor comparison a Kiloton of bomb produces 4,184,000 Megajoules (based on some online unit conversion calculator) typically released in a very short amount of time (milliseconds). Some 'fan calc' estimated the energy output of the light saber to be around 6.96 MW. Otherwise it would be enough to roast and blind anyone near it (light is not affected by magnetic field as far as i know). First off, I doubt the plasma of the lightsaber would reach the Tokamak level-temperature (hotter than the core center of the sun).
