"You're not just some guy, friend, your life is just as important as anyone else's. So if that means saving it, then [revealing my secret identity]'s a risk I'm willing to take." And in just two sentences, Solid JJ has captured the essence of Superman better than most official DC media in the past decade+... in a parody video that ends in Superman deliberately convincing someone to kill themselves.
As sad as it is, that's because genuinely good characters are a joke nowadays. The idea that someone can put their lives on another's hands selflessly ends with a joke because doing it for realsies is too "corny" for media. I'm sure we can find some examples if we look deep enough, but it's not the norm.
@@chrism2516 They've done it pretty well too. The scene where Clark, completely unaware that he's borderline invincible, leaps in front of a barrage of lasers meant for Lois ("How'd you know you'd be bulletproof?" "I didn't. I just knew that you weren't.") was one of the most "oh yeah, THIS is what Superman is supposed to be" scenes I've seen in ages.
The Batman Beyond episode 'Unmasked' has a similar concept with Terry removing his mask because a Kid is too frightened by his appearance to allow himself to be saved.
I've been a Superman fan since 1987, I watch and read and try to play anything that has that S-shield. This among the best Superman content in any media released in the last five years. Easily more fun than the Snyderverse.
Even if he gets it right, people aren't gonna believe him anyway. "Superman is just a regular guy who works a 9-5 job? Nah that can't be." Even Lex Luthor have trouble believing it after he hire the best investigator.
@@ReigoVassal honestly this is a proven aspect of lex luthor's character, he literally got body-swapped with the flash and took the chance to learn his identity only to be noticeably disappointed and surprised when he didn't recognise the face, the man is so egocentric that he literally cannot comprehend the idea that such a major superhero would be some random guy as a secret identity
The jumper was an a-hole, so after he said Mark Trent, Superman could have swooped down to save him. Then he would say, thanks, Clark Kent! And Superman would've been boned. Superman did the smart thing.
Superman’s form of getting people to trust him “I’m Superman I cant lie, it’s one of the rules” is a very Superman thing to do. also loving the new art

ok but let's be for real, out of all the superheroes to try to threaten to expose, the one guy that can hear you from anywhere on the planet and show up to stop you in under the blink of an eye is probs not the best choice
In one of the early Superman comics, Supes spends the whole issue thinking of OTHER identities he could adopt if his 'Clark Kent' identity was ever penetrated. Of course, this was before he spent his entire childhood with the Kents so it was essentially his 'real' identity. Supes considered taking the identity of a homeless guy (nobody notices them!) and a police officer (I'd have a reason to be on the scene!).
This is hilarious but Superman better be ready for the rant he's gonna get from Batman back at the Hall Of Justice! Great video again man VoiceoverRequiem did a good job here
Batman would say good job for keeping the secret in between rants of how hard is to keep this secrecy around and Superman just throwing around his name to strangers. "Why don't you go and tell your real name to every sucidal person you meet?" And all that

Hell when Batman saves someone jumping off a building it's usually the Joker playing one of his stupid 'If I die I win' games so Batman can go eat beans if he wants to compare suicide prevention statistics.
He would probably still make sure the guy never said anything. If lex new his name he would go for his mom, we saw what happened in injustice where because joker knew the whole world was done for, and basically any villain would target all his loved ones. Superman is an amazing person but if you go for his family you’re screwed. We even see this in Superman and Lois when the guy pulled a gun on Lois he folded the dude.
It would mean Lois would likely get killed. Superman would probably laser the guy's brain and give him a lobotomy so that he either forgot what happened or was too mentally damaged to tell anyone. Still alive, though!
I'm not so sure about that. If Superman's secret identity were revealed, many villains would jump at the opportunity to exploit his social connections by threatening his friends, family, and loved ones. Would he sacrifice the safety and well-being of several dozen people he cares about, just to keep one stranger alive?

The crazy thing is Superman could have totally saved the guy after he jumped after realizing he forgot his name, he can move at like the speed of light.
He flew to the Andromeda galaxy in just two hours. So can move at least 11 billion times faster than the speed of light. Billion with a B. Superman is just ridiculous.
That might have been a Gwen Stacy level of saving him, though. Superman is less shock-absorbent than concrete or steel, so he would need to fly in the same direction as the jumper and gradually slow them down (granted, many Superman comics/cartoons/etc... ignore this and have him catch people in ways that should greatly harm them). No idea what version of Superman they were using for this. Sometimes Superman needs a space suit/oxygen mask (DCAU, Lois & Clark, etc...) or can be hurt by more mundane things (Fleischer cartoons, post-crisis reboot, etc...). In the late 50's-the 60's he was basically unstoppable at basically everything.

You know, Superman can just reverse the rotation of the Earth and turn back time and prevent any of this from happening, but that guy's life isn't important enough to go through the effort.
Some might find it morbid, and say superman killed this man - but let's be real here, the dude was talked into believing he could fly, so it's a miracle he didn't kill anyone else on his way down.
plot twist: the guy told superman that he was going to tell everyone about his secret identity so that superman would let him jump thus achieving his goal
To be fair, Superman gave him the will to live but at Supermans expense. Can't think of a better way to say thank you than by ruining someones way of life
@@tomby_ There's a superhuman guy who opens up to you who could snap your neck like a twig quicker than you could blink and you want to betray his trust?
Honestly, that dude deserved it when he threatened Superman like that. I mean honestly here’s a superhero who is trusting you with his whole life because that’s how bad he doesn’t want you to jump. Here you are, a nobody to the world right now, and this super powered being literally cares enough to come out of his way for you when nobody else would and your gonna ruin his life just to make yours SLIGHTLY better. Even if he revealed Superman’s name, people would be more focused on Clark Kent then you the nobody. So theirs really no reason for him to do this both logically or emotionally, so I say he deserved it.
Mhm. So you tell someone something intentionally without even a NDA and because they then say they are going to use the information which you willingly gave them no-strings attached that means you are in the moral and legal right to actively deceive them into killing themselves. Look, its clear you didn't exactly spec for self awareness but I feel like if I need to point out that a stereotypical corrupt CEO who has a worker that "learns too much" and needs to be taken out is literally more justified than what you are straight as shit trying to justify as morally and legally ok, you might need to stop one tricking and spend your next perk points a bit more wisely.
@@internetguy7319 Not if the life being lost was about to ruin yours, clearly. What kind of mindset is that? A guy says “I am gonna rape your daughter”. Then he accidentally trips and hits his head on his own. You are both in the middle of a random alley with no one else there. Do you help him? Pretty obvious that no. Is letting a life being lost worse than rape? Objectively, it isn’t. But do you help someone who was about to hurt your family? No, you don’t. Legally, it’s your obligation to call an ambulance, but this time, passiveness wouldn’t be a problem because it’s more of less a variation of self-defence. And, morally, would ANYONE in the world blame this dad? No, they wouldn’t. Same thing. You don’t need to help someone who is about to ruin your life. That’s it.
I laughed at "the wind" turning out to be super breath. A bit sad that the first minute of this until the blackmail occurs is more in-character for Clark than a lot of official writing though.
I am with superman on this one. He does what is supposed to be the right thing, and then the person he helps threatens to destroy his life. I don't want a unhappy superman, we all know where that leads.
The fact that he didn't even remember Superman's name correctly and being thrown out last second as he jumped gave me such humungous whiplash holy crap that was perfect.
Made even funnier by the fact that Superman didn't even have to say anything to save the guy, he's physically capable of stopping him from falling at any moment. He tried to be nice because that's what he does, but I guess that was the wrong play.
Jumping Jeff sounds like the name of some forgotten Golden Age supervillain that was too lame to use after 1 issue. Can't wait to see him in the new James Gunn Superman movie.

You know, Superman can just reverse the rotation of the Earth and turn back time and prevent any of this from happening, but that guy's life isn't important enough to go through the effort.
He'd still have to stop it in the past.
He did it just once in 1978 and it was a film.
2:25 Mr. Incredible: Very poor choice of words.
0:46 Honestly, I can kinda actually see Superman doing that.
“I’m not asking anymore, jump”
For a second i expected the dude to actually, successfully start flying and leave Supes dumbfounded
Some might find it morbid, and say superman killed this man - but let's be real here, the dude was talked into believing he could fly, so it's a miracle he didn't kill anyone else on his way down.
Well... At least the actual Mark Trent, wherever he is, won't have to worry about every villain in the world coming after him now.
This made me realize how you never see MARK TRENT & Superman in the same room 🤔
Next time I see Mark at the office I'm going to wink. Let him know that I know.
This feels just like Robot Chicken Superman. I love it.
plot twist: the guy told superman that he was going to tell everyone about his secret identity so that superman would let him jump thus achieving his goal
"Let me rephrase that"-😂
I was already laughing in the first 5 seconds, great vid JJ keep up the hilarious work
You know, that's actually really relatable, and this is why heroes don't give their identities to anyone at all
I love how Superman didn't even attempt to reverse time. He just accepted that the guy was poised to jump.
He did it just once in 1978 and it was a film.
To be fair, Superman gave him the will to live but at Supermans expense. Can't think of a better way to say thank you than by ruining someones way of life
Superman being genuinely kindhearted but then the dude being an ass
I honestly would have done the same.
@@tomby_ There's a superhuman guy who opens up to you who could snap your neck like a twig quicker than you could blink and you want to betray his trust?
@@tomby_ And this is why the world is how it is today
@@tomby_the same superman did, hight? The guy got what he deserved.
I mean I would have jumped or had done what superman did
“Sir please step down from the building …..lemme rephrase that” fucking brilliant
Lmao he went through all of that and the guy didn't even hear his name right. What a great punchline to the joke.
Did the joker write this comment
“No, no, no. No God. The only man in the sky is me.”
-Superman
Honestly, that dude deserved it when he threatened Superman like that. I mean honestly here’s a superhero who is trusting you with his whole life because that’s how bad he doesn’t want you to jump. Here you are, a nobody to the world right now, and this super powered being literally cares enough to come out of his way for you when nobody else would and your gonna ruin his life just to make yours SLIGHTLY better. Even if he revealed Superman’s name, people would be more focused on Clark Kent then you the nobody. So theirs really no reason for him to do this both logically or emotionally, so I say he deserved it.
WHAT IF HE MEANT TO DO IT
The therapist when your card declines:
And this is how Superman learned to handle with this situation when he encountered it again in All Star Superman
Superman is the therapist when his patients card declines
I love how Superman had plenty of time to still save the guy after realising that he misheard his identity but didn't react
You always have the best concepts for videos! This is easily one of my favorites 👍
If someone literally threatens to ruin your life, then frankly, even legally, Superman isn’t completely in the wrong here.
Mhm. So you tell someone something intentionally without even a NDA and because they then say they are going to use the information which you willingly gave them no-strings attached that means you are in the moral and legal right to actively deceive them into killing themselves.
Look, its clear you didn't exactly spec for self awareness but I feel like if I need to point out that a stereotypical corrupt CEO who has a worker that "learns too much" and needs to be taken out is literally more justified than what you are straight as shit trying to justify as morally and legally ok, you might need to stop one tricking and spend your next perk points a bit more wisely.
Um, no.
@@mousermind
I’m objectively correct, though?
Legally, there’s no problem. This is self-defence.
Morally, it’s a life for a life.
@@LFanimes333Morally you are obligated to do anything you can to reduce the loss of life.
@@internetguy7319
Not if the life being lost was about to ruin yours, clearly.
What kind of mindset is that?
A guy says “I am gonna rape your daughter”. Then he accidentally trips and hits his head on his own.
You are both in the middle of a random alley with no one else there.
Do you help him?
Pretty obvious that no.
Is letting a life being lost worse than rape?
Objectively, it isn’t.
But do you help someone who was about to hurt your family?
No, you don’t.
Legally, it’s your obligation to call an ambulance, but this time, passiveness wouldn’t be a problem because it’s more of less a variation of self-defence.
And, morally, would ANYONE in the world blame this dad?
No, they wouldn’t.
Same thing. You don’t need to help someone who is about to ruin your life.
That’s it.
Superman is such a kind person for helping the unfortunate fly 🥲
another certified Solid jj classic
3:03 Is… is Superman a terrorist?
I mean... If we are talking about Regime Superman then yeah, I guess...
"You know what Chelsey, I think you should jump."
Amother masterpiece. Thanks for all the effort making these, they really bring a bit of a laugh to some dark days.
Holy shit that whole skit was amazing.
Fecking love when more people participate in these, it's hilarious❤😂
I swear dude, your skits get better with every video, keep up the great work!
Superman is fast enough to have intercepted him before he hit the ground upon the realization that he didn’t have the correct name😂
😭 Mark Trent LMAO. Is that another dimension’s version of Superman? Funny skit!
This is honestly my new favorite jj skit. Thanks for always putting out top notch content
This and the sandman one are my favorites
Considering his trajectory, he almost did learn how to fly!
I laughed at "the wind" turning out to be super breath. A bit sad that the first minute of this until the blackmail occurs is more in-character for Clark than a lot of official writing though.
I am with superman on this one. He does what is supposed to be the right thing, and then the person he helps threatens to destroy his life. I don't want a unhappy superman, we all know where that leads.
He's misheard Superman name his identity is still saves
@@fikrijuanda6321but superman did not know that until the end
I mean that guy was hinting that he wouldnt be able to tell if he died
Like jumped off*
So yeah its all part of his plan
The fact that he didn't even remember Superman's name correctly and being thrown out last second as he jumped gave me such humungous whiplash holy crap that was perfect.
I was half expecting for Superman to reverse time and try each and every option he could find to get this guy from falling down lol.
Made even funnier by the fact that Superman didn't even have to say anything to save the guy, he's physically capable of stopping him from falling at any moment. He tried to be nice because that's what he does, but I guess that was the wrong play.
Jumping Jeff sounds like the name of some forgotten Golden Age supervillain that was too lame to use after 1 issue. Can't wait to see him in the new James Gunn Superman movie.
The only man in the sky... is Mark Trent.
The audio quality really improved from a few videos prior, really nice!
Can't wait to see more adventures of the great Mark Trent.
