OKay, I love this series and all power to Kim, but sometimes she does things that are way beyond her abilities. What do you think was the most impossilbe stunt she ever pulled in the series? My vote was "Two to Tutor" where she is floating in that batch and Shego revs up the mixer. Kim dives down and desptie the mixer going extremely fast she managest to latch on without getting diced to bits.

I'd have to say the bit in "Hidden Talent" when Kim shatters 20 feet of solid ice by just singing a high note. Sheesh -- Black Canary, Black Bolt and Banshee combined couldn't do that!

[glow=blue,2,300]That would be a very tricky thing to do, but she...
And I forgot the rest of the opening verses to that song.[/glow]

Hello...she can do anything! lol But there are many things that are impossible, 2.4 on average per episode maybe? I don't wanna do the math, I'm too lazy

I love how whenever she uses her hairdryer it acts in a different way, sometimes it goes around the object multiple times.. sometimes it hooks into it, its fantastically impossible.. but hmm lets see.. there are so many, how about her cheer routine in ASiT when she was applying for the squad, as Bonnie put it "i gave her a routine no girl can do"

Good question....
Really, watching this series, you have to take most stunts and maneuvers with a grain of salt. Realize she "can do anything" and that whatever she tries she will succeed at. (Unless it helps the plot along for her to temporarily fail)
The one scene that has always bothered me from this series is in Triple S. Kim was battling triple S in the air and had to get rid of her parachutte. After jetting off the plane, she began to free fall without a parachutte. She fell for about 20-30 seconds it seemed. She made no effort to save herself or contact Wade for what appeared to be her death fall. As luck would have it, she fell on the blimp for the Xgames. She should be dead. That's the only time she just gave up and accepted the fact she was going to die that I can recall in this series and it bothers me.

Tough to argue with her name, but I would say the part in Golden Years where she lands on the alligator's mouth and shoots upward.

How about learning to pilot a prototype starship just by watching a monkey do it in "Monkey Ninjas in Space."

how about being a likable cheerleader... okay, I know - but I had a rotten time in high school. I was the geek in the library.

Some of you people must have went to some awful high schools. I was not a "popular" person in high school, but I was friends with a lot of the cheerleaders.
One very good friend was a cheerleader, and I never knew of any cheerleader being snobby becuase she was a cheerleader.
Of course I attended a small high school and everyone did a lot of things. (I was partnered with a cheerleader in debate. I threw discuss with another one in track. I tutored one in math. )
I think that this cross activity nature destroyed, in my school, a lot of the "clique" stereotypes that permeate most high school television shows. I guess that I was just lucky.
[EDIT]
I was just reading this and realized that I never mentioned anything on topic.
Almost every scene with the grappling gun is impossible. Kim would have to have a grip strength of outlandish proportions to do most of what she does and her shoulders would have been dislocated by many of them. The worst one that I can recall right off of the top of my head is at the beginning of StD. A fall of that distance and that much extra weight would have done serious damage if she had been able to hold on like that and would be equivlent to lifting several ton just to hold on.
And I don't care what her name is that is unrealistic. ;D

Fortunately, it's an animated tv show. It makes it more believable. If it was live action, then it would be unwatchable because of the possibility factor. Kinda like old westerns where they shoot unlimited bullets without reloading. That's just stupid!

I just think it's cool. ;D as for bad highschools... well, I never went to ANY dances and skipped my graduation - point.

Hey, if a monkey can be trained to do it, how hard can it be for Kim to learn? Besides, she had mission control and Wade helping out.

When Shego and Kim fight earlier Kim throws (or kick or punches I don't remember which exacty) Shego into a concrete support hard enough to break the concrete. In a concrete vs human body collision like that the concrete is going to win every time. The human body is going to have to be mopped up.
