User blog comment:Lord Loss/Monster Hunter Theory... Blog/@comment-9646890-20130519214201

This is tied into your low gravity theory, but you might want to create one on the fact that these hunters are superhumans. Perhaps due to the vegetation they eat and the fact that they live in pure nature with clean air and no pollution. But my explanation of how they are superhumans is for the following reasons: They can take huge amounts of damage and survive. They can be hit by fire and not burn. Struck by electricity and not be electricuted. Be wrapped in balls of Ice and not freeze. They can be under water a long amount of time. Can eat huge meals and then go hunting without feeling bloated or throwing up while running/jumping/flying/ and being smashed in the stomach by a Rathalos tail. They have super quick adapting immune systems supporting the low time it takes to kill of a poison. Have powerful muscles for endless running, diving, carrying weapons, and being able to swim quite quickly with 200 pounds of armor and a 500 pound hammer on their back but can still swim to the surface. They can stand a close range giant barrel bomb explosion. Can become drunk at the canteen and shake it off in minutes. Can swing a heavy hammer for 30 minutes and still do it just as fast as they started. Can have the entire weight of a Deviljho slamming into a Great Sword block being forced onto 2 tiny human wrists. Can be uppercut by a Deviljho and fall 20 sweet straight onto the lumpy and stone hard hammer on their back without any damage to the spine or neck(which they sometimes land on alone). Can spend over 48 hours of nonstop hunting without sleeping or resting(face it, those meals aren't enough energy). You can hunt during both day and night in Moga and spend an in game time period of a month of hunting without any sleep. Can be bitten into by a Deviljho with no armor on and not even have a scratch on their skin.

Also, there is 1 problem with the weak gravity idea-pitfall traps.

The above reasons are why the hunters are superhumans.
