Corrected entry: Okay, giving the movie a huge benefit of the doubt and say that it is in fact possible for Black Widow to survive a hand grenade exploding three feet away by hiding behind a mercenary, it's inside of an armored car. The sound of the blast alone would be concentrated by the metal walls, and leave her very deaf.

Corrected entry: Even if Steve's enormous biceps are strong enough to hold back a helicopter, it would easily be able to take off between the time that he latched onto it and the time that he grabbed the rail. He provides no anchoring at this time, other than his body weight. That wouldn't be nearly enough to hold the helicopter down for as long as he does. (01:09:00)
Correction: Steve wasn't holding the helicopter down with his bodyweight - he threw the balance off when he leaped up and grabbed it and Bucky was trying to correct the balance so he could take off without potentially crashing or losing control. You can see the helicopter wobbling after Steve grabs onto it, and Bucky looking shocked and using the controls to try and correct it. By the time the balance had been corrected, Steve was able to grab onto the ledge and hold it.
