Introduction

In Defenders Issue 10, Daredevil, Luke Cage, Iron Fist and Jessica Jones survive a powerful explosion created by The Hood. I'll be calculating how powerful this explosion they survived was.

Calc

Luke Cage Height: 221 pixels (1.98 metres)

Window Height: 347 pixels (3.108868778280543 metres)

Panel Height: 485 pixels

Distance from POV and Window: (3.108868778280543*485)/[6*2tan(70/2)]=12.27422586733543 metres

Window: 17 pixels (3.108868778280543 metres)

Building Width: 806 pixels (147.39695501730102 metres)

Explosion: 422 pixels (77.17309555496406 metres)

Overall Size of Explosion: 89.4473214222995 metres

Y = ((x/0.28)^3)*1000

Y is yield in tons of tnt and x is radius in kilometres.

Y = ((0.08944732142229949723/0.28)^3)*1000= 32.60077506464002 Tons of TNT
