I am planning an MCU revision, and I'll calculate a few speed feats. Some are outliers, but I think the Spider-Man feat might be usable.

Hulk's travel speed[]

Though not shown as often as Hulk (2003 Movie Version), the MCU Hulk can jump pretty far and fast too. In The Incredible Hulk, Hulk went from Rio de Janeiro to Guatemala within 10 hours.

According to this distance calculator, that's 3577.99 miles, or around 5 758 216.74 m.

5758216.74/(10*60*60) = 159.95 m/s, Subsonic

Not too impressive, but that should be added to Hulk's profile since he doesn't have a travel speed yet.

Post-Sakaar Hulk jump speed[]

Hulk has an impressive feat in Thor: Ragnarok, he jumps from the Rainbow Bridge to Surtur's head. Surtur is 4 km tall, but it seems that his waist was at the Rainbow Bridge. So it is safe to say that Hulk at least jumped 2 km. This doesn't even take into account Hulk did not jump straight-up, but from far behind. But damn, Hulk reached Surtur's head in like 3 seconds.

2000/3 = 666.67 m/s, or Mach 1.96, Supersonic

Spider-Man dodging meteors[]

I've been requesting people to calculate this, but no one was willing to I now finally have time to do it myself.

Feat can be seen here. Spider-Man and Iron Man both dodged meteors.

Meteors are 11 km/s to 17 km/s. But I calculated the speed of the meteors to be 2 983 776.44 m/s.

I had a pretty hard time trying to scale the distance between them and the meteors. I think this scene would be the easiest to calculate, Iron Man flies away from a meteor.

The distance moved in one frame by Iron Man and the meteor. Iron Man flew out of the camera's point of view. We can see that the fire or whatever it is on his boots that appears when Iron Man is flying has two sections - yellow and blue. In the second screenshot, we can see that the part where yellow and blue meets of his left foot is right at the top of the screen. So by measuring that part where yellow and blue meets to the top of the screen in the first screenshot, we can get the distance Iron Man moved in 1 frame. That's around 105 px.

For the meteor, it moved into the screen, so we just measure the part the meteor entered the screen in the second screenshot to get how much it travelled in 1 frame. That's around 120 px.

Low-end (11000 m/s): 105/120*11000 = 9625 m/s, Mach 28.28, High Hypersonic flight speed

Mid-end (17000 m/s): 105/120*17000 = 14 875 m/s, Mach 43.71, High Hypersonic flight speed

High-end (2983776.44 m/s): 105/120*2983776.44 = 2 610 804.385 m/s, Mach 7672.29, Massively Hypersonic+ flight speed

Here's another scene where Spidey saves Drax from the incoming meteor.

It's impossible to scale from this perspective, but the distance between Drax and the meteor seems to be around the same length as Drax's foot. The average human foot length is 0.79 m. So Spider-Man would have to react + shoot web before the meteor hit Drax.

Low-end (11000 m/s): 0.79/11000 = 0.000072 seconds, High Hypersonic reactions

Mid-end (17000 m/s): 0.79/17000 = 0.000046 seconds, High Hypersonic+ reactions

High-end (2983776.44 m/s): 0.79/2983776.44 = 0.00000026 seconds, Sub-Relativistic reactions

We can also calculate Spider-Man's web shooting speed. Let's assume Drax's head is 20 cm. We can angsize the distance between Spidey and Drax.

Panel height: 225 px

Drax's head: 6 px or 20 cm

2atan(6/(225/tan(70/2))) = 1.44779409 according to the almighty Google

That's 7.9145 m.

Spider-Man's web-shooting speed:

Low-end (11000 m/s): 7.9145/0.79*11000 = 110 201.9 m/s, Mach 323.85, Massively Hypersonic attack speed

Mid-end (17000 m/s): 7.9145/0.79*17000 = 170 312.03 m/s, Mach 500.49, Massively Hypersonic attack speed

High-end (2983776.44 m/s): 7.9145/0.79*2983776.44 = 29892529.92 m/s, 9.97% the speed of light, Sub-Relativistic+ attack speed

Speed of the Bifrost[]

Just a calc shamelessly copied from another wiki, credit to the original author.

The Bifrost can travel to other galaxies.

Simple calc, feat takes about 24 seconds. Nearest galaxy is the Andromeda Galaxy so I'll use that as a sort of lowball I guess.

2.5 million LY away, or 2.3651826e19 km

2.3651826e19/24 =  9.8549275e17 km/s

9.8549275e17/0.343 = Mach 2.8731567055e18

2.8731567055e18/874635.569 = 3,284,975,831,500c

In Thor: Ragnarok, Hela followed Thor and Loki into the Bifrost and threw one of Loki's daggers back at him while there. If Hela did not have greater throwing speed than the Bifrost's overall speed, then the dagger would not reach Loki. It would have stayed in place or fallen behind.

Speed of ships in the MCU[]

Another calc shamelessly copied, credit to the original guy.

The speed of ships in the MCU is incredibly fast. The one that Hulk used to evacuate himself at the end of Age of Ultron eventually took him to Sakaar in what had to be less than two years, and it is certainly not the best tech in the MCU.

As well, Valkyrie predicted that it would take them eighteen months to make it from Sakaar to Asgard with the ship they were going with. It should be fairly safe to use proto-galaxy distance to calc the distance from Asgard to Sakaar. Here, it says the Magellanic Cloud is 179,000 LY from Earth.

Eighteen months in seconds is 47304000 seconds.

1.693471e18 km/47304000 sec = 3.5799742094e10 km/s Or 119332.47358c

In a flashback, we see Valkyrie fighting Hela and all kinds of battleships fighting her, so everyone who can keep up with Hela, which even includes lower tier soldiers who ended up surprising her and could stab her, scale.
