Feat: In the superhuman species olympic games Steve performed a nice speed feat. In the games, in the "Save your loved one" quest a loved person of the participant in hidden somewhere in the world. He is given a clue about his loved one's whereabouts and that clue will lead to another clue and so on until the final clue leads the participant to his loved one.

What happened in Steve's case is the clue before the last one led Steve to a building in Los Angeles and when he entered a certain room (where the clue led him to) of that building he found out that his loved one was not there (he thought this would be the last clue) but instead the moment he entered the room he stepped on a trap which made the gun (a sniper rifle) that was pointed to his loved one go off and his loved one was in a whole different country at that time. But Steve could see his loved one on a giant screen in the room (at Los Angeles) he was. He could see a window in the room where his loved one was being held. Through the window he could see a signboard and instantly understood the language and as a result was able to identify the country. A few more clues around the signboard also helped to identify the specific city. He quickly flew to that city. He used his sixth sense to find out his loved one and rescue her and all this before the sniper bullet could reach her.

Calculation: The room she was being held was a single bedroom so the sniper rifle was no more than 3 meters away from her. Muzzle velocity of sniper rifle is at least 800 m/s.

So the timeframe is 3/800 s = 0.00375s

The city she was being held is Dhaka (in Bangladesh).

According to this the shortest airway distance between Dhaka and Los Angeles is 12989.62 km

So, Steve's speed = 12989.62km/0.00375s = 3463898667 m/s = 11.5543c = FTL+

Later in the story Mark (after awakening his true power) blitzed Steve so it would scale to him. But in the superhuman species olympic games' first event (around the earth sprint) it took base Mark 79.23x more time to complete the race than Steve whose power was already awakened.

So, Base Mark's speed = 3463898667/79.23 m/s = 43719533.85 m/s = 0.1458c = Relativistic
