** Of course, it helps that Bear is [[Badass|ex-SAS]] and is well-trained for all kinds of crazy shit like that.
* ''[[Heroes (TV)|Heroes]]'' averts this quite well most of the time, where it's frequently left ambiguous what a character's exact abilities are. We still don't know the full extent of what Sylar is ( {{spoiler|or was, since [[Word of God]] states he lost all powers but his telekinesis and his "intuitive aptitude" after the infection in season 2}}) capable of; it wasn't revealed until more than halfway through season 1 that Peter could mimic others' powers when he wasn't in proximity to them, etc. On the other hand, Knox is the living embodiment of this trope. What powers him up again? Oh yeah, ''fear''. Wait, what was it? He seems to be over it by episode 9, but good grief.
** [[Fan Wank|He could simply be trying to intimidate his enemies in order to become stronger]], but the Peter example was just a result of him learning [[How Do I Shot Web?|how to shot web]].
** Let's not forget Meredith in Season 3. It's a good thing that ''almost every single one of her appearances'' is heralded by her holding out a tongue of flame in her hand, because [[Viewers are Morons|otherwise we wouldn't remember]] [[Playing With Fire|her pyrokinesis.]]
* In [[Stargate SG-1]], it's Teal'c saying "Luckily, my symbiote will protect me," usually from radiation or just general physical harm. Being an incubator for a [[Puppeteer Parasite]] has its advantages.
