Line 73:
** In an early episode, a doctor observing Heero comments that he has over 200 bruises and broken bones and yet was still walking around as a normal person would. (It should be noted that this was the same episode where he later fell down that cliff.)
** It should be noted that in ''[[Super Robot Wars Alpha]]'', Heero is also apparently one of the few people in the universe capable of remaining conscious after one of Kushua Mizuha's [[Gargle Blaster|Health Drinks]], which has been known to knock out ''androids''.
* The mages of ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha (anime)|Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'' evoke this appearance since they're frequently smashed through walls and perform [[It's Raining Men|hard drops from helicopters]]. However, they wear Barrier Jackets which, while appearing to be made of cloth, give off magical fields for protection. The one time that a non-[[Artificial Human]] character's Barrier Jacket was completely penetrated, it resulted with said character being hospitalized for nearly a year. The reason she was hospitalized for so long was due to both the injury and the fact that she had overstressed her magic.
* ''[[Berserk]]''. Guts is superhumanly tough, able to survive being impaled, carried off several hundred feet into the air, flown at the speed of sound without any protection, than falling hundreds of feet and still be able to fight. And given what he [[The Legions of Hell|has]] [[Eldritch Abomination|to]] [[The Juggernaut|face]], you better believe the guy needs it.
* Quite a few characters in ''[[Rurouni Kenshin]]'' can take inhuman amounts abuse with relatively little effect.
Line 397:
** Shepard [[Up to Eleven|turns this up to eleven]] in [[Mass Effect 3]] when {{spoiler|s/he is blasted by Harbinger's main gun on the way to the Citadel during the endgame. Bear in mind this is a gun that fires molten metal at near-lightspeed, and it has been shown to destroy dreadnoughts in other appearances. Shepard just gets up and keeps going, albeit with major injuries.}}
* ''[[Suikoden II]]'': Luca Blight ends up fighting eighteen heroes working in tandem, defeating at least twelve of them, and has to have half an army shoot him in order to weaken him enough to make a duel against him even remotely fair.
* ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario Bros.]]'' Bowser, definitely. From being [[Super Mario Bros. (video game)|thrown]] [[Super Mario 64|into]] [[New Super Mario Bros. Wii|lava]], [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story|crushed by two castles and a train]], and [[Super Mario Galaxy 2|knocked into a sun followed by a black hole]] among much more, the sheer amount of things he's survived with barely a scratch on him is amazing.
** ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' lampshades this in his playable sections. He has literally infinite lives.
** Perhaps the Mario Brothers aren't the only ones who can benefit from One-up Mushrooms.
