I don't mind most of the unrealistic things in this show, because that's what it is all about. The healing/blowing off head thing does really bother me though. HRG took a bullet to the head, and was healed simply by Claire's blood - her brain really had nothing to do with it.

why would he survive that huge explosion then? how did he defeat those armies of soldiers? it seems if he could die from something as reasonably easy as a gunshot to the head, he wouldn't have made it 400 years.

When Ted went nuclear he was never injured. Thus, it is not his healing power that saved him at all.

The discussion was of Adam's survival of Whitebeard's ammunition exploding. Adam only has healing power.

Wouldn't peter's self explosion at the end of Season 1 severe the head/destroy brain etc. thus rendering him dead? Also had some flashbacks of Highlander watching Hiro charge an immortal-like Peter with a sword, anyone else?

stop mentioning the self explosion. it is obvious he should survive that no problem.

The ammo explosion might have only burnt him to the bone and not damaged his head=skin and body regen.

Heroes is suffering from a problem Lost also suffers from- only bad guys are competent. The Others were omnipotent, had supernatural powers, and operated like a military commando unit before they were made sympathetic to viewers. Now they're a bunch of bumbling schoolgirls and can't do anything right. The Company were these bad ass agents who used their powers to help themselves and now they're short-sighted idiots bickering amongst each other. Once a character turns good they lose all sense of good judgment.

I would assume that they removed the bullet. It's already been established that that works when Claire had the shard in her head and it was pulled out and she healed.

Maybe Adam can take a severe hit to the head and he's lying that it'd kill him, just in case Peter decides to pull his head out of Adam's ass.
