I'm talking things like leaping off buildings, grabbing a ledge while falling, or taking on beatings which should have sent a person to the hospital.

What action movie sequence should have killed/ seriously injured someone?

I think the list of action movies that don't downplay how dangerous things are would be significantly faster to establish.
...
I can't think of any unless "superpowers" can handwave things that don't make sense (like the number of people that should be dead from Superman catching them while falling).

I'm writing a story, and I"m trying to draw in contrasts between the 'real' world, and the world of 'exalted'. Basically, I'm searching for examples where Exalted do things that would cripple a normal person, and I want to specifically draw attention on it.

Exalted do things that would kill or cripple a normal person in their own setting, because they have superpowers.
Like, say, being able to jump through windows without getting horribly cut. Or being able to walk off stab wounds to the abdomen.

Granted, there may be people out there getting superpowers from getting shot by bullets but if so they're hiding very well.
