00:00Why did Heimdall choose to send Hulk back to Earth at the beginning of Avengers, Infinity War,
00:04and not Thor? First, Heimdall was completely injured. He had enough energy to send only one
00:08person and had three options, Thor, Loki, and Hulk. Loki was immediately ruled out. Heimdall
00:13couldn't entrust such a desperate message to a known trickster. And even if he did,
00:17would Doctor Strange and Wong trust Loki enough to act in time? Then comes Thor.
00:20Being Heimdall's closest ally, he seemed like the obvious choice. But at that moment,
00:24Thor was immobilized, barely able to speak, and was Thanos' main target. Even if he tried to send
00:29him, Thanos or Ebony Maw could have reacted quickly enough to stop him. That left Hulk,
00:32who was injured, almost unconscious, and off Thanos' radar. He had the best chance of escaping
00:36unnoticed. In addition, the magic powered by dark energy could injure whoever was transported.
00:41A weakened Thor might not survive the process, but Hulk, being almost indestructible,
00:45could withstand it. Reuniting Earth's most powerful heroes again to then face Thanos once more.
