|||
===[[Niki Sanders]]=== |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
[[Niki Sanders]]'s alter ego, [[Jessica]], had superhuman physical strength sufficient to physically dominate and kill people much larger than her, often several at a time. She was able to tear people in half (literally) and tear the door off an office safe with her bare hands. In addition to being able to exert such force, she had the ability to [[Ability immunity|resist the forces she applied]], so she was not injured when performing superhuman feats of strength. There was no evidence that she had unusual resistance to other sources of injury. Her strength wasn't limited to her upper body, as she was able to send D.L. flying with a kick. (''[[Fallout]]'') |
|||
Niki was unable to access this power for most of [[Season One]] without Jessica taking control. She was first able to use it on her own in ''[[How to Stop an Exploding Man]]''. As she was physically the same person, she presumably had the same limits as Jessica. |
|||
===[[Peter Petrelli]]=== |
|||
[[Peter]] absorbed this ability from Niki in ''[[How to Stop an Exploding Man]]'', and used it to effectively bloody Sylar's face. Later when Peter used this ability, he demonstrated enough concentrated strength to throw [[McSorley's son|a man]] against a wall by punching him at the chest (''[[Lizards]]''). |
|||
After returning from the [[Exposed future|future]], he is strong enough to easily hold [[Sylar]] against [[Level 5|a wall]] with one hand. With a mere twist of his wrist he completely broke Sylar's neck (''[[Angels and Monsters]]''). |
|||
When Peter [[ability replication|replicated]] this ability from Mohinder, he was able to break out of metal restraints and easily fight off a government agent. (''[[A Clear and Present Danger]]'') |
|||
===[[Knox]]=== |
|||
Knox states that he can increase his strength by absorbing the fear of others who are around him. His [[assignment tracker profile]] says he can convert ambient emotions into enhanced strength. These claims are supported by Knox's ability to detect fear in other people. Enhanced by the fear of numerous hostages, he was able to punch through the body of [[the German]] and make a hole in the metal locker behind him (''[[One of Us, One of Them]]''). In a [[exposed future|possible future]], Knox tells [[Claire (exposed future)|Claire]] that he can "smell" her fear while being unable to smell any fear from Daphne. After the accidental death of [[Noah Gray]], his source of fear, his strength disappears immediately when Sylar strikes back, leaving him vulnerable (''[[I Am Become Death]]''). |
|||
Knox seems to inhale deeply before utilizing his strength (''[[I Am Become Death]]''). He also trembles violently with great amounts of fear (''[[Eris Quod Sum]]''). |
|||
Without feeding on the fear of others, Knox is only as strong as a normal person. He attempts to bend a steel bar while no one is around but cannot. (''[[Hard Knox, Part 2]]'') |
|||
===[[Michael Fitzgerald]]=== |
|||
Fitzgerald's ability is, according to [[Sylar]], enhanced strength and "durability". Despite this, Sylar is able to bypass Michael's durability by telekinetically closing his windpipe (''[[Graphic Novel:Viewpoints|Viewpoints]]''). |
|||
His eyes and the tattoos on his body appear to glow when his ability is in use. The reason for this is unknown. |
|||

||
===[[Scott]]=== |
|||
After the [[formula]] was finally perfected, Scott was injected with it and obtained enhanced strength as a result. He demonstrated his ability by breaking free of his restraints in the [[Pinehearst]] laboratory, unbolting his chair from the ground, and throwing it through a glass window with enough force to lodge it securely in the wall on the other side (''[[Our Father]]''). |
|||
===[[Mohinder Suresh]]=== |
|||
After having the perfected [[formula]] wash over him, all traces of his old [[Mohinder's ability|ability]] disappeared, and only the enhanced strength aspect was left. He has demonstrated this ability on several occasions, including ripping a car door off its hinge to use as a make-shift shield.

==Notes== |
|||
* It is unclear which personality (Jessica or Niki) was in control when she snapped the prison guard's baton in two. If it were actually Niki, this would be her first demonstration of super strength. (''[[Godsend]]'') |
|||
* In 2007, [[Niki (future)|Niki]] is locked up in a [[Moab Federal Penitentiary|cell]] from which she cannot escape using her brute strength. It is unclear what it is that stops her. |
|||
* Though [[Peter]] was exposed to [[Knox]] in ''[[The Butterfly Effect]]'', it is unclear whether or not he absorbed Knox's ability, and whether or not this adds to the strength he absorbed from Niki. Additionally, it is unclear whether or not he could have the ability to sense fear in others. |
|||
* At various times, other [[evolved humans]] have displayed strength beyond that of a normal human. |
|||
** [[Sylar]] punched through a cab window with his fist (''[[Seven Minutes to Midnight]]''), and was able to wield a parking meter as a weapon (''[[How to Stop an Exploding Man]]''). Whether this is an ability he has [[intuitive aptitude|acquired]] or an application of [[telekinesis|another power]] is unknown. |
|||
** An aspect of [[Mohinder]]'s [[Mohinder's ability|old ability]] was increased strength. He was able to crush a gun with his bare hands and toss a man several meters into the air (''[[The Second Coming]]''). He was also able to hurl a table across the room at [[Nathan]] and [[Tracy]] (''[[Dying of the Light]]''), and, with apparent ease, physically dominate [[Mark Spatney]] (''[[I Am Become Death]]''), a [[Drug dealer|drug dealer]] (''[[Angels and Monsters]]''), and [[Sylar]] (''[[Eris Quod Sum]]''). |

Enhanced strength (also referred to as super strength) is the ability to exert greater than normal physical force.
Characters
- Mary Rose has this ability.
- Niki Sanders was granted this ability synthetically.
- Peter Petrelli absorbed this ability from Niki (How to Stop an Exploding Man), but lost it to his father (Dying of the Light). He has since replicated it from Mohinder but no longer has access to it (A Clear and Present Danger).
- Knox can convert ambient emotions into enhanced strength. (The Butterfly Effect)
- Michael Fitzgerald possesses this ability. (Viewpoints)
- Scott, a Marine recruited by Pinehearst, is given the ability synthetically. (Our Father)
