Did you know that in AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON... Steve slightly moves Mjolnir. According to director Joss Whedon, Steve was able to completely lift it -- but didn't because he doesn't want to hurt his friend Thor's feelings.

Waiting to do it paid off. Because when he really lifted it in Endgame, Thor was excited and proud to see his friend was worthy

I think the fact that the Super Soldier serum didn't make him crazy should be a good indicator that Steve has outstanding moral character.

That confident smirk that slowly melts away when he budges it still cracks me up after 9yrs.

“I knew you were worthy” later in the fight - always gives me chills

[elijahjarman]

That's because Steve is the best bro

[danzen]

This is the best antitheft device. Nobody else can lift the bag

[irietheace]

Yep! Lifting Mjolnir Is either a can or can’t. There’s no “partial worthiness” with Mjolnir.

[genericgoon]

And that small gesture is an incredible example of why Steve is worthy. It's beautifully ironic.

[KlementtM]

Steve wouldn’t try to grab it in Endgame if he didn’t know for a fact that he could. It makes a lot of sense

[isalivegaming]

Steve could lift it, because he wouldn't lift it.
THAT is power and integrity.

[MyrrdinWylltEmrys]

I think deep down Thor saw and or knew he could lift it whole, Steve didn't because he's a gentle soul.

And going back to End Game while fighting Thanos his reaction to "I knew it" proved that when Steve lifted the hammer.

because steve learns form his mistakes

[mrscaryfox]

Because even slightly moving it proves your worthy

[kuttikrishnanpp]

What a great friend, All of as need a friend like steve❤🗿👍🏻

[crzhorizon]

"Because Steve, learns from his mistakes!"

[alejoreignen]

I feel like the idea that he was still holding on to the secret that Bucky killed Tony’s parents and after he let that go is when he became worthy is better

[MLeoDaalder]

I'm still surprised nobody tried to lift the table...

[phasomyr]

This is also why Thor said "I knew it" in Endgame.

[burtlux]

"That's because he learns from his mistakes"

[thehuntsman]

"I knew it!" Those were Thor's words in End Game when Steve wielded Mjolnir against Thanos, meaning he was thinking about it the entire time, and he knew he was worthy.
