Have you ever wondered... (Your "Power-Level")

Post by Mike D » Sun Dec 19, 2004 11:24 pm

Have you ever sat back and wondered, what your power level is or what it would be if you were on DragonBall Z?

No, I took one of those quizzes on [insert DBZ character name here]69_2000's website. I had a 6.8 "YOU ARE ABOVE AVERAGE FOR A UHMAN BUT ARE NOTING COPMARED TO VEGITAAA!!!!!!!"

What was yours, biotch? 8) j/k. But I'm probably in the 5-6 range since 5 is average and 10 is bullet withstandable.

Ohhhhh....my friend, but it is you who ist thy biotch. My Power Level is 11.54. Meaning I would whoop that farmer's ass from here to kingdom come.

I remember this "find out your power level" type of things and the instructions were to:

1. Add your height in inches to your weight.
2. Add that sum to how much you can bench press.
3. Divide that sum by 50.

Enjoy (or despise) your results.

Bah! That just goes to show how flawed they are! At ten you can withstand bullets! For people to exceed 5 is ridiculous. 6 tops is probably non-steroidal Olympians. That was the purpose of the Power Level: to bitchslap people into realizing that they can never be as cool Piccolo and Vegeta and Goku no matter what! :twisted:

Hey! Something good came from this thread! We discovered the purpose of power levels! :P

That and those "quizzes" do nothing to measure chi, which is a heavily qualifying factor in power levels.

10 can't be 'survive bullets' level. Bullets have more power than that. I'd say the 'survive bullets' level would be some where between 75 and 125. That side, based on a real scientific formula (from my physics class, can't remember it now) my PL is 9.21 and I'm not all that powerful.

And WHY do people think 5 is the average Human PL? Did that farmer look like an average person to you? I'd say average is more like 12 or so.

Raditz was saying "Level 5? What a planet!"
So there must have been level 5 readings all around for him to assume that the planet was full of weaklings.

Can't be. Goku had the beginning of Dragonball had a power level of ten; and even then he'd be pretty much untouchable to any but the greatest of human martial artists.

So the average professional athelete (a football player for an example) would have the power level of 7 or 8. Where as a regular person would have the average power level of 3-6.

But he was a farmer! That means he works in fields all day and stuff. He did look a bit frumpy, but he can't be THAT weak. XD And then we have little Gohan's non-angry regular rating at only 1. If a four year old is level 1, and a (supposedly) hard-working farmer is 5... I don't know if there's that much of a range for us poor untrained humans. >_>

1) Goku had a PL of 10 when we first see him. He got shot at that time.

2) The dude's a farmer that doesn't work out. MANY farmers in that instance turn out to be "fat" once they pass their prime and he was far from his twenties. Look at the strongest man alive competitions and weightlifters. Not a single one of them looks like a body builder. They all look more like Pan Buukin. :P

Since Son Gohan was at 1 at the beginning, and Goku at 10 when he was first introduced, I think the average human power level would be around 5-8. Considering all those zeroes, it really puts you into perspective of how strong the characters are supposed to be throughout the series.

I think Son Gohan was a little bit more than 1, considering he was Roshi's number 1 student.

Oh, well in that case, his battle power was already over a thousand, which is significantly more than one. :P
