Haha, I remember those! In Champions (rpg), a normal human being can
flatten a car in less than 5 minutes. Diplomats in Civilisation (cg) can
bribe enemy planes without them ever landing. High level fighters in AD&D
can survive a drop from any height. A human person can hold his breathe
longer than a superhero in Champions, etc, etc.
Some of these cuties are on the web at:

Personally, I don't think you should pick on muds coz the current state of
muds is such a sham, there is be enuff material to fill several epic
tomes. (then again... hmmm)
