I'm curious about the possibility of "real" superheroes. Even though I think it's impossible, theoretically, what if someone had some sort of birth defect and had both red and white muscle fiber, and especially someone with extraordinary inherited physical strength? Would this person have unbelievable strength & stamina and basically be superhuman? If someone had an unbelievable concentration of this dual muscle fiber and also worked out much more often than the average person, could they theoretically have an insane amount of muscle mass--i.e., enough to stop knives/bullets?
