10 Reasons Having Certain Superpowers Would Actually Be Awful

1. Accidentally Breaking Things (Super Strength)

Super strength is one of those powers that everyone has imagined having at some point. It's the stereotypical, standard power for any hero or villain and is probably the most common in fiction. Kids imagine being able to lift cars, throw things in to space and fight criminals using this mighty power - but it would come with a terrible burden. If you had the power to lift 100 tonnes, it would be extremely difficult to do anything delicately. Drink a glass of water? Smash the glass. Open your front door? Pull it off its hinges. Hug your grandmother? Squash your grandmother. It would be terrible and you would have to live your life as if you were walking on egg shells, always running the risk of doing some serious damage to the world and the people around you. So there you have it - 10 reasons that having certain superpowers would actually be awful. Do you agree? Which other supernatural abilities would come with terrible burdens?
