I’m rather pleased with soem of the odd requests we get on Ask A Biologist from time to time, it rather shows we are doing our job and providing a real service and of course the questions can lead you into soem intersting disucssions and unusual areas of biology. We have taken questions from teachers and students of course, but also specific ones from guys trying to settle bets, quiz masters, playwrights, authors and in this case, a game designer.  There is lots of good science fiction based on real science, or in this case specifically human physiology, and it’s an interesting concept – how could you modify a human to give them super endurance? As ever, the answer is here.
