Well since a commercial air-plane flies at about 800 - 1000 kilometers per our, and it has to be very resistant to able to sustain the wind pressure.
To go around the world in 5 minutes Nathan would need to fly at 480.000,00 kilometers per hour or 480 times the speed of an commercial air plane, I am pretty confident that, that speed would rip his flesh out of his bones.
Nathan can fly without ill effect to his body because part of his ability is to ignore the pull of gravity (including the multiple gravity pull by moving really fast).
He seems to also be able to automaticly create a barrier around himself when he moves at incredible speeds. You can notice this in certain scenes by seeing a notable ripple distortion around him when he's flying super fast.
@Spartacusse his body is made for high velocity flight it is part of his ability his body is designed to fly likes peters body is designed to empathise and take in new abilities
How the hell could Nathan of flown away when the Black guy can block powers!? He wouldnt risk not blocking his powers incase Nathan had the power to explode!? Its Ridiculous!!! Hes meant to be a trained Agent yet he doesnt take basic measures to ensure safety... tut tut!
Maybe the haitian didn't know that nathan had an ability so he didn't try and block it or maybe the haitian wanted nathan to get away because if you think about it he does help a lot of the heroes for example there are a few times when he didn't wipe claire's memory
yep, cos i remember after this scene Bennett found out that nathan has an abiity. But then...the Haitian does not have to "turn the power on" so to speak. his presence alone would block any ability within range. hhmmm... this would be a good trivia question.
Actually that is not true, The Haitian can choose whose powers he negates and whose he does not. He must concentrate as it is a mental ability. This has happened many times but Arthur Petrelli was able to fight him in season 3
The Haitian can block your frontal lobe from working (Making you not use your powers) or erase your memory. But he does it on purpose he can control it.
The Haitian chooses who to block. He can block more than one person's ability as seen in season 3 episode 3 (Daphne and Hiro's powers both did not work around him) Probably to be safe as he was holding the suitcase with the formula.
its weird that nathan can fly with the haitian there...i dont think that haitian control his power..his power is always activate without he controlling it..
The Haitians ability according to the official Heroes wiki is Mental Manipulation. This power only seems to be effective against those whose ability rely heavily on mental concentration such as Telepathy or Space-Time Manipulation
Bullshit. In the recent episode with the speedster girl she couldn't run fast with the haitian around. You telling me running is more mental than physical?
My guess is he didn't know what power he had. With the speedster, and Hiro, he has encountered Hiro before, and since the speedster works for Peters dad, and the haitian works for his mom, my guess is he as probably encountered her, so he knows what power she has. If you remember when peter and the invisible guy were on the roof, the haitian and Benet, shot at him, but he stopped it with telekinises, he didn't know peter had it, so he couldn't block it.
personally i thiink the writers thought halfway throughb the series ''yeah he can do emeories...how do we solve the problem of how powered ppeople keep owning bennet? guive him a new power....yes yes that way we can tie up some loose ends'' i think they made the blocking power DURING the series and then tried to explain it with your above method or some cr*p like that
NO! The Haitian does not need to know what powers they have to block. Just think, he is going to stop Arthur and he doesn't know what powers Arthur has (he has a bunch).
The Haitian let Nathan go away, as did with Peter in one episode when he flew away with Claude (invisible man). He is loyal to Angela, and does not want her sons get hurt or caught even if he has to work for the company. Funny how, HRG didn't ask the haitian why he didn't block his power though.
I love this scene - one of my favourites. When I watched it for first time I was practically shouting at the screen "Fly! Just fly!" I thought he wasn't going to because Nathan was always denying that he had a power so when he did I was like "Yes!" Guess he figured, "Hell, they probably already know."
It's also the first time we see Nathan fly properly - he's pretty darn fast. Wonder if he can fly faster than West. They should have a race.
i love how when it shows nathan landing at the diner that hiro and ando are at, hiro calls him "flying man", and when hiro sees nathan again at isaacs loft, he yell,"flying man!"
This show rocks hard, but the writers need to put more thought into things.
A further example is; Why in season 2 does Peter not read adams mind? also, why does he use telekinesis to pull the door open whilst he can phase through it?
@Spartacusse long time ago but I noticed the other girl with aritificial power could use it with him too it is quite possible people with fake powers can use them near the haitian.
Yeah, lots o flaws in the story. How can peter phase to begin with considering he never met DL? Why did DL have to eat a bullet when he could have just phased nikki for that matter. Ah well, take what you can get I guess...
The Haitian can only suppress powers if he knows what ability(ies) the person has. At this point Noah and The Haitian didn't know he could fly, until obviously he did. :P
There are no flaws in this story. Your brain is flawed. Peter was near DL....so he absorbed his power. Peter absorbs every power that he is exposed to, but he just has to figure out how to use it.
Think about how Peter used Daphne's speed power in season 3 episode 4 before he even knew Daphne had that power.
Also, Peter learns to use these powers whenever he's in a stressful situation. Phasing when he was handcuffed to a chair when he was found in Cork, Ireland.
Super speed when he was facing Claire with a gun in the future where Sylar's son gets killed.
Well, the Daphne scene, he had mastered/learned Sylars ability(IA), he had absorbed it, since he is a mimic, and since he had Sylars power, he knew what her power was, and how it works/used it.
I'm not sure about DL's case, but he saw Niki use her powers, when she was beating up Sylar. And in my opinion I don't think it's a power one needs to learn(like Claire's power). Also Sylar indicated that, when he told Nox that he understood his power.
ur freakin insane.. you comment like every day.. 24/7. Except you left a flaw.. peter cant absorb future peters power so he cant place other peoples bodies.. in another.
More importantly, if Peter was close enough to Niki and DL to absorb their abilities, it stands to reason that he absorbed Micah and Molly's abilities.
Why didn't he just "ask" the door to open?
Because TK'ing it open looked cooler and was more dramatic!
the Haitan doest just block abilities just by being present he has to actually consentrate i mean its kinda oviouse other ppl have used there abilites in front of the Haitan b4
@zekanz nathans power isnt genetic, and the haitian's powers dont work on non-genetics. Nathan's power was injected to him. Or its the other way around where he wasnt injected and the haitains power only works on peoples whos powers were injected. I think its the first tbh
I'm surprised his pants stayed on. I'm just saying...

Disabling abilities is not passive for the hatian, he has to mentally switch it on. He didn't expect nathan to fly so he didn't use his ability
A further example is; Why in season 2 does Peter not read adams mind?
again reading minds is not passive. Peter is too naive and too trusting. He would have never suspected adam
why does he use telekinesis to pull the door open whilst he can phase through it?
he wouldn't know what to do in there.
