Note: Snake, Gray Fox, and Liquid are not assumed to scale to the 8-B potency of the Metal Gears from tanking their explosions as they were not in the epicenter, and Gray Fox/Liquid are in a protective cockpit, meaning they more then likely didn't take the full brunt of the explosion. Along with this, the self-destruction of Metal Gear Rex from a large distance away nearly knocked Snake out while Liquid was perfectly fine, supporting that Liquid didn't take the full brunt of the explosion. Along with this, even assuming Liquid did (despite it being very unlikely cause he wasn't in the epicenter), it would be a case of Plot-Induced Stupidity as Liquid and Snake are equal in strength yet Liquid no-selled a feat while Snake got knocked out by it's outer blast.
