Godzilla possesses great physical strength. It can neutralize the gravitational powers of the Gravity Goliath. Like his fire breath, it is affected by magnetic forces. It can have enough kinetic force to explode the dome of the Capitol Building, as seen in The Breeder Beast. It is shown to be able to melt coastal artillery and render uranium inert in Island of Doom. Unlike the fire breath which can spread over a wide area, the lasers can be used for precise attacks and underwater. The area of his pupils turn red and then beams of light of similar color is emitted. Godzilla could also shoot red laser beams out of his eyes in addition to breathing fire. On some occasions, Godzilla was able to shoot flames from his nose. It was shown in The Golden Guardians to be able to melt gold such as the multiple Golden Guardians meaning it can reach temperature ranges from gold's melting point, 1,948☏ (1,064☌), to just below gold's boiling point, 5,378 ☏ (2,970 ☌). The breath can still reach temperatures to melt rock as seen in The Sub-Zero Terror, The Beast of Storm Island and Valley of the Giants. Its behavior to magnetic forces suggests it is more akin to plasma than fire. It appears to be more than simple flame since in the episode The Magnetic Terror, it is deflected by the magnetic forces of the Magnetic Monster. In the series, Godzilla could breathe fire instead of his atomic breath. He can project radiant and thermal energy that takes the form of his fire breath and laser beams. In The Golden Guardians, the Calico crew was able to reenergize a weakened gold-encrusted trapped Godzilla with a modified communications laser, nearly draining the Calico's power in the process. He can swim fast enough to induce currents that can create a whirlpool in the ocean. Like all Godzillas, he lives in the water and can function on land. Godzilla fires his laser vision in The Godzilla Power Hour Amphibiousness Godzilla made his American series debut with Hanna-Barbera's Godzilla, where he traveled alongside the Calico crew, with Godzooky, fighting many different monsters from 1978 to 1980. His roars were provided by actor Ted Cassidy. The roar for the animated Godzilla is a dramatic departure from his Showa era counterparts, sounding much more human in origin than before. The Hanna-Barbera Godzilla's arms are also very long, human-like and flexible, similar to the Showa Godzilla's. They are also blue or green in color rather than bone-white. His dorsal fins are unlike those of any other Godzilla in that they begin at the top of his head, and are more triangular in shape compared to Godzilla's traditional maple leaf-shaped plates. The Hanna-Barbera Godzilla, unlike the incarnations of Godzilla featured in Toho's film series, is entirely green in color. The name "Godzilla" is a transliteration of Gojira (ゴジラ ?), a combination of two Japanese words: gorira (ゴリラ ?), meaning gorilla, and kujira (鯨 or クジラ), meaning whale.
