Doesn't even need to be a magic rock. A regular one thrown at your head also does wonders.

Shit, even a crack rock can do it.
In fairness, Doomsday beat Superman in a straight knuckle dust up, no kryptonite required. So that's also a Superman weakness.
In Superman The Animated Series Batman (and the Joker) discover that a jade dragon is actually made out of kryptonite because the owners die after a few months.
And in some of the stories Lex Luthor loses his hair because of his kryptonite experiments.
So at least in those universes it's also harmful for humans.
And in some of the stories Lex Luthor loses his hair because of his kryptonite experiments.
In Smallville, the spacecraft carrying Superman brings a kryptonite meteor swarm with it. Lex's exposure to the meteors is the cause of his premature baldness and a partial reason for his resentment of The Alien.
And in some of the stories Lex Luthor loses his hair because of his kryptonite experiments.
In the mainline comics of the ‘80s and ‘90s, wearing a kryptonite ring day after day gave him incurable cancer.

Everybody's weakness is a rock if you hit them with it hard enough.
Ah man I've not heard Kryptonite in years
I have a short playlist of Superman songs.
- Kryptonite - 3 doors down
- Jimmy Olsen’s Blues - Spin Doctors
- Superman (Its not easy) - Five for Fighting
- Superman’s Dead - Our Lady Peace
- (Wish i could fly like) Superman - The Kinks
- Superman - REM
Always looking for more.
What about "(I'm No) Superman" by Lazlo Bane, aka the Scrubs theme song?
You Don't Mess Around With Jim by Jim Croce isn't directly about him but does give good advice on treating this wardrobe with respect.
Silvergun Superman - stone Temple pilots
Sunshine Superman - Donovan
Superman - Love Spit Love

Kryptonite lays him out right away even from a reasonable distance.
Even the plutonium demon core won't kill us right away.
A little touch of hydrogen cyanide and we're gone though. We're fragile AF
If we're talking pure elements at room temperature, people can die from extended contact/eating/breathing beryllium, fluorine, phosphorous, hlorine, chromium, cobalt, arsenic, cadmium, antimony, cesium, mercury, thallium, lead, bismuth, polonium, radium, thorium, uranium, plutonium, and americium. That doesn't even count all of the heavier than air gases that will kill you in a couple of deep breaths. People are very squishy and prone to getting injured by things.
Also, if you throw them hard enough, all the other elements will kill you too.

"What if I pretend like people are saying something stupid and then cleverly refute it? Yes, that will make an excellent meme."
Anything solid of decent mass can basically do us in. A glass bottle with an I love Kitty logo on it at 70mph right to the skull for example. So yeah, a rock, so long as it is large enough, could do it.
It's all about the joules imparted.
A small enough rock going fast enough is just as deadly as a large one traveling slower.

Hmm what if it didn't have the hello kitty logo?
So is a kidney stone
Been through two medical fears already, catheter up my dick (3 times) and a broken femur. Kidney stones are still on my bucket list!
Boss brought his to work one day for show and tell.

I don’t understand. The point isn’t that we are not vulnerable to something similar, it’s that Superman is nearly invulnerable. So, my brother in Christ, this is not a retort.
What I wonder: according to lore the conditions, where supermans people live, on krypton are so harsh that they are a strong race that is like humans under those conditions.
Now sth. With the sun is there too, but lets put that aside for a moment.
So Supermans weakness is a rock of krypton. Because the rock itself must be super radioactive or sth like that.
Anything that harms superman should kill every human in the area instantly.
Dude it's comic book magic and bullshit, don't overthink it.

Nice try but I eat Uranium for breakfast.
That's just so many calories.
I think we all eat Uranium for breakfast.
Yeah but uranium kills you after a bit, kryptonite takes him out instantly.
Arsenic and mercury, both commonly occurring metals present in rocks, can kill humans immediately. Especially if vaporized. Uranium can kill and disable quickly in high enough concentrations.
Also, keep in mind it's a plot device about a fictional flying space alien with laser eyes. It doesn't need to follow the laws of physics.

Yeah but I'm not super. How's he supposed to call himself super if he's weak to the same shit I am.
You can brain anyone with a rock.
One big rock from space can wipe out the entire planet.
Rock + Isaac Newton = death
