Well, I was reading through Tintin In America when something struck me. Tintin could break a wooden dumbell in one strike, pull a heavy wooden plank and could pull it up to 3 feet and push it in Secret Of The Unicorn. He's a strong, young boy.

One more issue to forward: Tintin's Weight
Well, I believe that Tintin is around the 60-70 kg range and his height could be 1.65 m-1.75 m. Reason: Because of his strength and I used logic to evaluate this. Well, Why Tintin looks like a normal teen and his height like teens? His body is made up of raw muscles and we can reason that Tintin is muscular but not to a certain extent of Superman's. Why he's muscular? His strength, running strength and overall, his performed stunts.

Maybe its not that he's super strong, but has some brilliant sense of mechanical physics!

Well, maybe but as we know, Tintin's smart and resourceful but maybe....

Oh, that piece of old mechanical muddler! Well, sorry not you Isabel but that old Volvo BM10 Mark 2 as did it again! I've dropped my labtop but luckily, the floor is well cushioned. I'll get the driver of that bus and sue him for going that fast at a hump.

If you want to know the bus, here's a picture of it.

Well, back to the topic. Tintin maybe a good physhics genius like some of my classmates but look at the size of the plank in Secret of The Unicorn. It weighs almost 300 kilos if i could calculate.

Strength + Physics = One Good Handyman
