It can take from a few seconds to 5 minutes for the transformation to be complete, depending on the initial stimulus. It has been theorized though that the transformation is more psychological than physical. <br/><strong>Superhuman strength:</strong> As the Hulk, he can lift around 90 tons. But that increases substantially depending on his anger or stress level. <br/><strong>Superhuman leaping ability:</strong> When calm, he can leap about 3 miles. But when enraged, his jumping ability increases also. <br/><strong>Superhuman stamina: </strong>The Hulk's body counteracts fatigue poisons that build up in his muscles during physical activity. In an enraged state, the Hulk is capable of exerting himself at peak physical capacity for several days before fatigue begins to affect him. However, much like his physical strength, the Hulk's stamina does increase as he becomes angrier.<br/><strong>Superhuman durability</strong>: In addition to great strength, the Hulk's body possesses a high degree of resistance to injury. The Hulk's skin is impervious to conventional blades, adamantium and vibranium being among the very few metals that are capable of piercing his skin. The Hulk is capable of withstanding high caliber bullets, powerful energy blasts, pressures extremes, falls from orbital heights, maximized heat without blistering, maximized cold without freezing, and great impacts.<br/><strong>Regenerative healing ability: </strong>Despite his high resistance to physical harm, it is possible to cause the Hulk injury. However, the Hulk is capable of regenerating damaged or destroyed areas of his body (what include limbs, internal organs, and even his head), with greater speed and efficiency than an ordinary human.<br/><strong>Superhuman Speed:</strong> Regardless of his size, Hulk's superhumanly strong legs allow him to run at speeds that are far beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete (about 700 mph). Nevertheless, this does not grant him any enhanced reflexes or agility as smaller foes exploit his size and use it to their advantage. However, he has been fast enough to catch mortar shells shot at him.<br/><strong>Resistance to Psychic Control: </strong>In many instances and occasions, the Hulk has demonstrated great psychic resistance as side-effect of his rage and the multiple personalities inside his mind<br/><strong>Astral Form Perception: </strong>The Hulk has the unique ability of being able to see "astral forms"--or ghosts<br/><strong>Gamma Radiation/Energy Manipulation and Emission:</strong> Not usually a power associated with the Hulk, but there is enough evidence that Hulk possesses at least a limited ability to manipulate forms of energy, particularly gamma radiation. The Hulk's body works like a "gamma battery" by creating and radiating gamma energy.<br/><br/><br/><strong>Training and Equipment:</strong><br/>Dr. Bruce Banner is a genius in nuclear physics, possessing a mind so brilliant that it cannot be measured by any known intelligence test. According to Banner, he is one of the eight smartest people on the planet. When Banner is the Hulk, Banner's consciousness is buried within the Hulk's, and can influence the Hulk's behavior only to a very limited extent. However, recent facts indicate that Banner subconsciously restrains the Hulk's full power.<br/><br/><strong>Background and History:</strong><br/>Banner's molecular structure was transformed due to gamma radiation and trauma passed down by his father, and because of the gamma bomb which Bruce built, that exploded when he raced out onto the testing site while saving the life of Rick Jones.<br/><br/><br/></span></span><div class="floatright">(http://[url=http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/0/06/Hulk452012A.jpg]http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/0/06/Hulk452012A.jpg[/url])</div><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: andale mono;"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Faults and Weaknesses:</strong><br/><strong>Gamma Radiation Draining: </strong>In the past Hulk was frequently vulnerable to gamma radiation draining by sufficiently powerful energy manipulators.<br/><strong>Adamantium and Vibranium Blades:</strong> They have been shown capable of piercing Hulk's skin<br/><strong>Adrenaline Suppression:</strong> Adrenaline inhibitors can be administered via syrings constituted of adamantium and vibranium, objectifying to revert the transformation into the Hulk. Amplified quantities can accomplish this purpose successfully.<br/><strong>Rage Nulification: </strong>The Hulk's rage also can be suppressed; this is exemplified by Betty Ross or the Sentry successfully calming him down in several instances. Telepaths with vast empathy potential can theoretically emulate this effect.<br/><strong>Gas Inhalation: </strong>Great doses of gas can temporarily detain the Hulk. However, it's not an insurmountable obstacle, since Hulk can dissipate the gas with a powerful thunderclap, destabilizing the opponent with the resulting shockwaves.<br/><strong>Strength Increasing Factor:</strong> The Hulk normally doesn't achieve full strength in the first moments after his transformation. Unless there is an substancial and uncommom event that triggers far superior amounts of adrenaline in his biological circulating system.<br/><strong>Extreme Conditions:</strong> Finally, he can be hurt or even killed by cosmic entities or extraordinarily powerful individuals, and under some conditions be psichically manipulated by exceptionally powerful telepath<br/><br/><strong>Current Relations and Activity:</strong><br/>      Bruce was in the process of leaving the country. He was in Washington state visiting an old friend. When the attack happened, he found himself abandoned in California. <br/>At this point, no one has heard from or seen the Hulk. He has been in hiding, keeping himself away from society for the most part. </span></span></div><br/>
