The Avengers have clearly saved the world or taken it over with the fastest grossing movie to hit 1 billion dollars in cinemas worldwide. The movie sports a cast like no other bringing together the world greatest heros and their super egos.

Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Mark Ruffalo, Jeremy Renner, and Chris Hemsworth will not to be able to go anywhere without some kid seeing the super hero inside.

However, one always wonders how these super heros got their start. From small things, great things grow is a quote often quoted among the giants in business, film and philanthropy. We wondered what these supers would be like in say... high school. Would they clear the hallway with a single look? Rough up the milk stealing bullies from first class? Or perhaps win the championship basketball game while destroying the baskets and the bleachers?

Here are the glorified early years of our stars. Chris Evans and Robert Downey Jr. rather unassuming yet cool. Mark Ruffalo clearly wearing braces for his future stardom with pearly whites. Scarlett.. cute as a button and likely as innocent. But what's with tiny Tim Chris Helmsworth or mullet man Jeremy Renner? Wow oh wow!

Surely these super heros hit the Red Carpets forgetting their younger years...I mean really - can they get any more sexy as they are now?
