Stan Lee, the famous creator of practically the entire Marvel universe and its superheroes, has started his own show on the History Channel for a while. It's called "Stan Lee's Superhumans", and features a lot of people with amazing, unbelievable skills. From conducting several million volts to insane mental capacities to "blind-seeing", it features the most incredible people on the world.

Now, if there are so many of such people on the world, which are most likely created through mutations, then are scenarios similar to what the Marvel universe has to offer possible in the long future, as evolution occurs? I think it's rather possible. With so many people on earth, even given a small percentage chance of mutation, there will definitely be quite a lot of "mutants" or "superhumans".

Some examples: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=stan lee superhuman&aq=0&oq=stan lee s

I saw previews for this like 6 or 9 months ago, it looked really interesting... But I ended up never watching it for one reason or another.

Thanks for the reminder, I'll go check it out now =P

There are also some really lame "powers", like the guy that has sticky skin or something and it makes objects cling to him...
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

With great power comes great responsibility.

I forget how old the guy was, but there was a guy whos stomach acid was so strong it could literally dissolve metals. He would eat all kinds of shit and be fine.

Ordinary stomach acid already scales down to PH of 1.0, which is pretty acidic. I doubt that there is much room for variation to be honest. I'm not sure how acidic it has to be to dissolve solid metal alloys, but metal bonds are pretty solid.
Apart, having dissolved heavy metals in ones body sounds pretty bad... heavy metal poisoning would most certainly appear. Not dissolving them might be the better strategy for survival.

About the show itself: Sounds like the typical popular scientific bogus to be honest :/
Just watching the hammer head episode... "Taking such impacts to the head defies human biology" - oh, really? Give me a counter-proof, please. I can accept that that guy can take a lot of pain, but whether his skull is actually that much more stable than your average "good" skull? I'm missing any kind of proof.
And guess why he had those bricks over his head when they let a bowling ball fall onto it... certainly not to make the impact worse. They even had a distance between them to absorb the impulse further.
When they were introduced, he made a witticism, hoping to be liked. She laughed extremely hard, hoping to be liked. Then each drove home alone, staring straight ahead, with the very same twist to their faces.

I doubt humanity will "mutate" like pokemon evolve. I don't think the Earth itself has the resources to sustain our life for that long. Most mutations are bad and the process of evolution is slow as fuck.

I'm sure bat-guy is on there. His taught himself to echo-locate making him a natural sonar machine so it wasn't genetic change that gave him his "super power" but just his own creativity and capability. If you think in those terms then it's possible to get superpowers!

I've always had trouble believing this guy is for real.

Also, most metals react with acids to form a solution. Time to go back to school.
