As always with these reviews, I’m accepting the premise at face value. In the view above, Luke Cage, a man who weighs perhaps 240 pounds, is lifting a chunk of what appears to be concrete that weighs something like 2400 pounds. That’s fine, as that’s within the capabilities of his fictional character.
On the other hand, I have to object to that chunk of concrete. He’s picking it up off the roof of a car, where it fell during an artificial (bad-guy-induced) earthquake in Manhattan. The top surface has a classical-architecture profile that make it clear that this is a chunk of cornice that fell from one of the rowhouses or tenements that line the block. (The full clip is here.) The problem with that is that the ornate cornices on those buildings are wood frames (usually made of 1x4s and 2x4s) sheathed in sheet metal (either copper or, more commonly, tin). Those cornices are impressive-looking from the street, but they’re hollow, lightweight, and flimsy.
It would not do to have a hero heroically living some crumpled tin, so we have, against all history and logic, a very dense cornice.
