Captain America: Can We Create a Super Soldier? | S01E06

Reality Check: The Science of Fiction

I wondered if the creation of a super soldier was possible outside the cinematic universe of "Captain America". So I talked to Dr. Guilermo Escalante, Assistant Dean and Professor of Kinesiology, who is also a leading researcher in PED’s to see how plausible it really was. Join me as Dr. Escalante takes me on a deep dive into the science of fiction. At the end of the episode, we will rank the plausibility of the "Super Soldier Serum" on a 1-5 scale from pure fiction to science fact. #SuperSoldier #HumanAugmentation #PED
