10 Things Everyone Forgets About Captain America
2. He Can Run As Fast As A Car
Anyone familiar with the 'on your left!' scene from Captain America: The Winter Soldier is aware of the fact that the blue-clad Avenger is a pretty speedy guy.
What this scene doesn't show you, however, is the hero's speed in the comics, which can reach considerably greater heights - heights of 30mph, to be exact, which is faster than any human athlete has ever managed. As such, Steve is basically as fast as a slow motorbike, and the fact that this is never shown is either because nobody can believe it, or because it's been secretly nixed somewhere along the line.
Although it's a fact it appears Marvel would like you to forget, Steve Rogers is significantly faster than you'd automatically assume he is, and it's a crying shame that we haven't seen it in full force in recent comic history.
