Superhuman durability

Superhuman durability represents an individual's ability to withstand physical pressure. People who possess this ability possess a physical heartiness beyond that of maximum human potential. This may come in the form of direct physical contact, pressures of depth or altitude or extremes in temperature. Many alien races possess superhuman durability. Some may even be able to withstand the vacuum of outer space. Superhuman durability often comes into play in the genres of superhero fantasy as well as Manga and anime. The ultimate expression of superhuman durability is invulnerability, which means a person cannot be harmed through direct physical contact at all whatsoever.

A prime example of Superhuman durability would be someone like Captain America. Though far from invulnerable, Captain America can endure a massive amount of physical punishment before succumbing - far greater than that of even the strongest athlete.

Examples of use

 * Captain America 110: The Hulk shakes off a blast from an ion-tripod weapon.
 * Fantastic Four 221: The plastoid drones demonstrated remarkable durability. They were able to combine forms to shape themselves into a tether, which the Thing used to haul the Flb'Dbi space ship out of the Arctic ice.
 * Fantastic Four 232: Diablo created an earth elemental whose physical durability was in proportion to it's size at the time (approximately 12' tall). At it's full size, it was tough enough to withstand blows from the Thing.
 * Wolverine Vol 2 73: Wolverine survived being blasted in the spine by Sentinel 3.14159, but it took him a considerable amount of time to fully recover from the intense blast.
