Reminds me of when someone made the same observation in Avatar: the Last Airbender about waterbenders.
(Except in that one, the observation wasn’t from online comedians - it was a fridge horror episode in the show)
The show directly addressed this with blood bending, maybe not as viscerally as I’ve seen online but it definitely did. Like if water benders can build enormous ice walls they’re definitely the most dangerous benders in Avatar. They could absolutely rip a person’s soft tissues off their bones if they tried. It’s just seen as so morally wrong that few benders even think about it. Like how we generally view mutilating a body in our societies or other strong taboos.
Also reminds me of the lactokinetic in Misfits. He appeared harmless, but if you had consumed any dairy products that were still in your body, he could kill you instantly.
I thought we are 70% water

Shame all his enemies are demon type who are immune to blood attacks, of course he can perform the cleansing ritual that has advantage against demon types casting possess so he isn’t completely useless it’s still a waste of a spell slot.

People have said the fact is derived from experiment done on live human subjects by the WW2 Japanese torture unit, Unit 731.
I don’t believe you can figure out the water content of a living human. And if you can, I don’t want to know how.
You could just weigh a mummified body instead, figure out how much a living person of the same sex and height would weigh, and the difference would be water. (Not accounting for the internal organs that were removed during mummification).
So if wine is between 80-90% water anyway, doesn’t seem that impressive.
Turn the water in the wine into wine
6% blood alcohol content is still pretty much lethal
woah Jesus is a water bender??
I can also give you an army of Aquaman, how cool is that?
(don’t hurt me if I made an unholy crossover, I have no idea which heroes belong to which universe)Indeed Professor X is Marvel, Aquaman is DC, and Jesus is New Testament Comics. There are arguments over ownership of some NT characters though, it’s complicated.
Jesus existed in DC comics and Marvel as both have Christmas as a holiday.
Then theres this:

Trivia : The Magi who presented gifts to Jesus were in fact aliens who followed the Star of Bethlehem throughout the universe as it appeared before important events
Oh yeah that’s good stuff. Disney, adapt that shit.
Can Jesus turn the water in wine into wine?
Jesus invented brandy.
Wait, is that what brandy is?
Sort of. You distil the wine, ethanol comes out first in a higher concentration than water, you also get some bits of the wine flavour, but some is left behind as well. Over time the ABV of the liquid coming out of the still drops as the ethanol is mostly boiled off. Mostly. There would probably still be traces of it left down to the last few drops if you were to evaporate all of it.
Fun fact though when chefs add wine and say “it just boils off”, this is mostly a lie. Depending on how you are cooking it some amount will remain. A long stew probably removes most but something quick would still contain a lot of the alcohol. But it’s a very small amount in total.
This seems like a XKCD / Randall Munroe “What if” kind of question. I.e., how long would a person survive if all of the water inside them was turned into wine?
Seconds as wine amd water do not have the same consistency. Your blood cells won’t move effectively enough and a BAC of 6% is extremely fatal as most will die at .6%
A quick search suggests that blood is 80% water. Turning that into wine at a weak concentration of 5.5% results in around at 14.5% BAC which is over 10 times greater than the highest ever recorded, so it would be certainly lethal.
You somehow didn’t answer the question, and the thing you said instead is completely obvious to anyone.
If there’s a cousin of Jesus that turns people’s brains into porridge, you’ve certainly been on the receiving end of that power.
Wine is 80-90% water, but all that alcohol and other flavor compounds directly in your bloodstream would not be good.
Yeah, but how long before I croak?!?!? I need to know now!
Pretty much immediately. You wouldn’t even know it.
Acidic pH like wine denatures proteins. It would destroy you on the cellular level, basic cell functions would cease to work. You could say it would stop your breathing or cause an instant heart attack, but it would be more like as if it fried your brain and heart like an egg in an instant.
I have a different question. How much wine extract can i add to the water in my body to be able to correctly state i exist out of 80% wine and still live.
That’s much easier. If you weigh 100kg (220lb) it’s W/(100 + W) = 0.8, and solving for W gives 400.
If you eat 400 kg of wine powder then 80% of your mass will be wine.
This will kill you, and it doesn’t actually matter what powder you choose to eat.
You are saying that you would have to eat four times your body weight of wine powder to turn your blood into wine. That doesn’t make sense.
It kinda does its just not what you expected (and not what the question meant). In a 500kg mixture of you (100kg) and wine (400kg), exactly 80% of that mixture is wine and 20% is you.
To answer the actually question you’d need to know how much extract you need to turn 1L of blood into 1L of wine and I’m to lazy for that math.
What if all the water turned to wine at 1 standard drink per hour
Wine is 15% alcohol.
Human are 60% water.
Human weight around 70kg
70 x 0.6 = 42 L
42 x 0.15 = 6.3 L of pure alcohol.
You’d probably die before ingesting that amount tho
Probably 0.00 seconds.
That’s what I’m talking about. OK then.
To be specific, it’d likely immediately fuck up the electrical signals in the brain, thus killing the brain.
That’s an understatement, it would also add a bunch of alcohol and all kinds of sugars and proteins inside every single cell. I bet that would instantly mess up every single biological process.
I bet it would take a long time for that body to rot.
You should see the guy his brother killed, turned the water into brandy.
Fucking weak as humans now. In my day we were 75% water and probably like 5-15 % lead. /S
Replace the lead with microplastics
Miss when superheroes had vague wording in their powers, leap great distances could scale up and down , mean anything
So you’re nostalgic for the Golden age? How old are you?
thats just most of what they had in the library growing up, 25 lol
Never been impressed by the “water to wine” miracle.
My S/O can turn anything into whine.
Did you have to help a chicken cross the road making that joke?
