And still get up? I remember in a Special Edition of Excalibur called Air Apparent, Nightcrawler was hit by a robot with super strength which sent him flying across the mall they were fighting in and still got up to defeat it. Can anyone else think of anything?

But mommy, do I really need a signature?"
He took quite beating from Captain Britain and only had a broken leg.

Across the Pond
Here's something else I just heard. Can anyone confirm this?
In X-Men 100 (or 101)
After getting skewered through the back and out the chest by an arrow, and taking a pounding after holding his own for a bit against JAEGER, Kurt still has enough juice in the tank to do the multiple port thing with Rogue, and go head-up for a bit against Domino.

Well, I tried to track down all the awesome things I've seen him do and make a list of the more incredible things he has done. Let me know if I should add anything. Also, I put down where I got the info from, so don't mind some of the long issue listings.
Strength
Uncanny103 - Banshee has his arms tied behind him with rope. While Sean can't break free Kurt comes behind him and snaps the bonds with ease.
X-Men 99 (Essential volume 1) Uses a steel pipe to bash in the skull of a Sentinel taking it out.
X-Men 99 (Essential volume 1) Used a seesaw to knock the 500 pound Colossus high enough into the air that he was able to take out a Sentinel in the chest.
X-Men Unlimited 4 -With one arm holds a full grown man over a ledge and dangles him.
Excalibur "The Sword is Drawn" - Slammed Captain Britain up against the wall so hard he cracked the walls of the Light Tower.
Spiderman 162-163 - Nightcrawler says he has the strength to rip apart re-enforced steel doors. Also goes toe-to-toe with Spidey and actually knocks him around for a bit.
Uncanny 107 - Lilandra is bound by a chain about to be killed by an alien monster,"The Soul Drinker". Teleporting to her side Nightcrawler frees her the Princess by snapping the chain with his bare hands
In an old 'Inferno' issue of Excalibur - Kurt has a full grown woman in his arms while he continually hops, almost Spider-man style over and around a bunch of possessed Manequins.
Excalibur 58 - Punches out a 40 foot troll.
Durability
Uncanny X-Men 95 (Essential) - The X-Men do battle with Nefaria's Ani-Men. Frog-Man gets the drop on Nightcrawler, slamming both powerful legs into his body full force by surprise. Kurt is knocked to his knees, but otherwise okay.
Frog-Man gasps, "You're still conscious? That would have flattened a DOZEN men!"
X-Men 192 - Takes a forearm from Rogue which sends him flying backwards, but doesn't look "too" harmed afterwards.
Excalibur Air Apparent - In a mall, he gets hit by a robot with super strength which sends him flying across the mall but still gets back up.
X-MEN 100-101 - After getting skewered through the back and out the chest by an arrow, and taking a pounding after holding his own for a bit against Jaeger, Kurt still has enough juice in the tank to do the multiple port thing with Rogue, and go head-up for a bit against Domino.
Speed
X-men 99 (Essential volume 1) - Moved so fast that in one battle dodged being squashed by a Sentinel, bounced off its hand, then bounced off its face.
X-Men 102 (Essential volume 1) - Dodged a punch from Juggernaut that was already at near point blank range.
X-Men 204 - Teleported from the ground to the wing of a WWII style plain while in flight.
X-Men Unlimited 4 - Moved so fast that even after bullets have been shot at him was still able to port out of the way.
X-Men 192 - Moved so fast that in the same panel teleported from Rogue's hands directly onto her neck blinding her with his arms, and all this happened while in mid flight. (also under skill)
Excalibur 58 - Stated that Nightcrawler could teleported in less than half a second (though I still go with less than a second)
Uncanny 360 - Wolverine, falling at 32 feet per second, Nightcrawler was still able port in front and catch him.
Skill
X-Men 84 (more recent) - Shows he can change direction coming out of a port even if he was traveling at a high velocity in another direction. Example, he was moving fast downwards, but when he ports, he shifts direction and is moving fast upwards. Did so with Gambit on his back. He teleported from a plane to the floor of a building, and because of the shift/velocity he going up instead of down.
"The teleportation effect maintains velocity. But I can shift direction turning our deadly descent, into an uplifting entrance" - Nightcrawler
Excalibur 71 - Man handheld Voght, Katu, and Unuscione of the Acolytes by himself.
Excalibur 16 - With no powers and using three swords, beat up a whole ship of people by himself.
Excalibur "The Sword is Dawn" - From hanging pipes in a non uniform patterns (triangles, circular, etc), attached only to the ceiling (i.e. no fighting took place on ground) was still able to hold his own with just a sword against 10 other robots with swords using no powers. And this happened shortly after being released from the hospital so he was still in a weakened state.
Excalibur 65 - Proved he could teleport blind as long as he as the exact coordinates he's going to teleport to.
Excalibur 87 - Stated he could teleport heads off if he wanted too.
Thor 427 - Showed he is skilled enough to teleport directly on someone's neck.
X-Men 192 - Moved so fast that in the same panel teleported from Rogue's hands directly onto her neck blinding her with his arms, and all this happened while in mid flight.
Uncanny X-Men 194 - A combination of Rogue's, Colossus, and Nightcrawler's powers teleported Nimrod's arm off.
Excalibur Air Apparent - Proved he doesn't have to grab an object to teleport it. Teleported a gun by just placing his fingertips on it.

In a Special Edition of Excalibur Nightcrawler and Amanda were turned to ribbons and put back together. Ouch!

hehehehe<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>LOL! I think we should nominate Nightcrawler to the Chef of the Year... http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif You know, "...with his uncanny handling of frying pans and his equal uncanny ability to mix ingredients (a head from a Cyclop for instance), the Chef of the Year is... ... (silence) ... ...NIGHTCRAWLER!" Long applause, whistling and splendid rejoicing.
