action/reaction principle.

friends at extreme speeds and while still going at an extreme speed they are
able to land safely to their destination on another planet.

In the fight with the Frost Giants, Thor is able
to fling the giants (eight to nine foot high creatures and three times the
weight of Thor) several feet into the air with his Mjolnir hammer effortlessly.

Near the ending when he shows Jane Foster his
powers, Thor is able to jump hundreds of feet into the air and miles away
without making a single leap with his legs.

IV.
The Avengers

Hulk jumps off from the carrier’s lab to a fighter jet almost 50 feet across
with making only minimal damage on both ends but not from the forces of the jump.
