Car glass is made of safety glass. It doesn't cut skin like that. It also shatters into much smaller splinters, so the huge chunks in Lois wouldn't be possible.


Diamonds are definitely not made of glass. So how does Maddie's dad summon them to him?

I'm disappointed with this episode.

well if we're going for realistic, i dont think the glass would have been shattered anyway. every show or movie has to change some things in order for the bigger, more important plot lines to work.

i never knew car glass was made of safety glass. I've seen one break before and it came in pretty big pieces too. Just like it did when Lois and the social services fool got owned.

I think just the windshields are safety glass and the doors have regular glass. Not for sure though.

All windows on a car are made of safety glass. I've had my own car broken into and broke away the remaining glass with my bare hand. No cuts.

Glass is made from Silicone
Could the Dad have powers over fake breasts?

Diamons are carbon, he should have no power over them.

Thank God for safety glass everywhere in a car.
Telekinesis was more like his power.
The dad would have fun at the beach too.. *LOL*

there were a few things that i noticed, in the beginning the glass everywhere was exploding, and the mirror started vibrating, would anyone -anyone-walk up to it and look into it until it explodes?
clark and chloe were talking about his powers at full volume at the daily planet,people walking right by and everything, yes the people were busy but someone would have heard them talking

couple other things, but i am mostly just seeing if i can post, i have always had problems with posting on this site, i have been here for years and years but have never had it work correctly for me

I agree. Especially since they didn't deal with something all that important.

Windsheilds dont explode like that they crack and cave in cuz they have a plastic liner in between and side windows and back glass break into little pieces on impact.

Really good? Nothing happened... It was bare.

I will say That Tom Welling did a good job. The part in the beginning with all of the glass shattering was amazingly shot.

Biggkoz has it. The windshield is safety glass with the plastic liner, the other windows are simply tempered glass. More difficult to break, but shatters into tiny fragments when it does.

It's not the firs show to have windshield glass shatter like that... It didnt bother me.

Yeah most people that dont deal with cars on a daily basis dont know if a windshield explodes or not. I think 99% of hollywood has they explode for the drama.

Yeah, I mean until someone brought it up here, I didn't know that either. I mean, It made sense after you guys said that, but that's why it didn't bother me.
