Tony Stark could be referred to as the foremost human Avenger. But his body remains far away from normal. Here are the weirdest facts about the Iron adult male body.

TONY STARK: ALWAYS THE IRON MAN

Avengers became Earth’s Mightiest Heroes thanks to fantastical powers, except for him it had been always about his technological know-how.

He established himself as not just one of the world’s greatest superheroes, but one among the neatest men on the earth representing the heights of human achievement.

THE FIVE WEIRDEST  FACTS ABOUT THE IRON MAN’S BODY

HIS HEART

A single moment changes his life forever. Typically the reason is that shrapnel from an explosion embed in Tony’s chest, necessitating the invention of an electromagnet to carry them cornered.

The event is the impetus to becoming Iron Man and for much of Iron Man’s early career.

While he has the shrapnel removed within the MCU, the comics version needs an entire heart transplant so as to place the condition behind him.

His heart could also be stronger than ever, but the changes it causes to his character will last a lifetime.

Eventually, there’s only so much tech Tony can fit onto his body  so it’s only a matter of time before it starts to go into him in order to keep upgrading.

The Iron Man armor improves steadily throughout the years, but one among the most important flaws within the early armor designs is how vulnerable Tony is outside of them.

With Extremis, Tony stores an under sheath within the very bones of his body that he can summon to coat him in under armor.

He can call the outside plating of the suit to him, but even that process sees improvement over time. Once Tony hones the Bleeding Edge design, he discovers he can store everything off the armor in his bloodstream.

As possibly one among his most powerful armor designs, the Bleeding Edge makes it so Tony isn’t without his deadliest weapon available.

Marvel’s alternate universe Ultimate line of comics tells a story where Tony Stark outright has superpowers from birth.

In the story, Tony’s mother works on biotechnology which will radically increase nerve cell growth in an organism, but one among the test subjects infects her during a breakout.

It seems she’s pregnant with Tony at the time and therefore the result’s an embryo whose brain grows to encompass his entire body.

Since his entire body consists of neural tissue, he’s hypersensitive to pain, which necessitates either a coating of armor to guard himself or the numbing effects of alcohol. A

ll in all, the thought gets a touch wilder than subsequent writers wanted. The story is retconned as a “story within a story,” the serial version of Ultimate Iron Man’s life told thereon universe’s TV.

HIS TUMOUR

In actuality, the “real” Ultimate Tony Stark suffers from a brain tumor that narratively serves an equivalent purpose because of the mainstream version’s heart disease.

While there is no shrapnel eating its way toward killing the last word Iron Man, the terminal cancer diagnosis has an equivalent effect in causing the hero to reevaluate his life.

He becomes Iron Man to undertake to offer back to the planet, but his story gets an entire lot weirder.

THE STRESS IS REAL!

HIS TRAINING

His tumor isn’t cancer at all. Over time Tony becomes “friends” with the tumor and names it Anthony, initially thinking it is a mental construct helping him affect his grief and talk through problems.

After the Maker cracks open his skull, Tony discovers the tumor is really the Infinity Gem the Mind Stone, granted to him for his genius and helping him become a hero all along.

That doesn’t mean he just lets his body go to waste. Tony undergoes physical conditioning like all the rest of the Avengers.

He’s even received hand-to-hand training from Captain America himself, so even without his armor, Tony isn’t lacking when it involves his abilities during a fight.
