[ QUOTE ] 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. [/ QUOTE ] When Ted went nuclear he was never injured. Thus, it is not his healing power that saved him at all. [/ QUOTE ] The discussion was of Adam's survival of Whitebeard's ammunition exploding. Adam only has healing power.

Also had some flashbacks of Highlander watching Hiro charge an immortal-like Peter with a sword, anyone else?

The explosion is around him leaving him unharmed.

Re: Heroes - 11/26 - A whole bunch of stuff going on
In Hercules just severing the head was not enough.
It would grow back. [ QUOTE ] The details of the confrontation are explicit in Apollodorus (2.5.2): realising that he could not defeat the Hydra in this way, Hercules called on his nephew Iolaus for help. His nephew then came upon the idea (possibly inspired by Athena) of using a burning firebrand to scorch the neck stumps after decapitation, and handed him the blazing brand. Hercules cut off each head and Iolaus burned the open stump leaving the hydra dead; its one immortal head Hercules placed under a great rock on the sacred way between Lerna and Elaius (Kerenyi1959 p 144), and dipped his arrows in the Hydra's poisonous blood, and so his second task was complete. The alternative to this is that after cutting off one head he dipped his sword in it and used its venom to burn each head so it couldn't grow back. [/ QUOTE ]

Re: Heroes - 11/26 - A whole bunch of stuff going on
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.

[/ QUOTE ] 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.

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