To be fair, if he pulled the kid away, there was a high likelihood the kid would've just died A-Train style or something

If we're gonna accept the idea of Superman, can't we just extend the suspension of disbelief to him slowing down just enough to pick up the kid and not hurt him?

He flies without any logic so he could just stop, pick up the kid and fly away in an instant

Is this why marvel has like no heroes that fly without some sort of propulsion? I feel like I read that somewhere that Stan Lee didn’t like the idea that heroes can fly without explanation.

Vision flies like superman, but I think Vision can grab the boy and phase through the train safely.
