People with the most unusual abilities. Unusual abilities of the human body

People with paranormal abilities have lived in our world at all times. Naturally, unusual abilities have always attracted people's attention. A number of studies conducted by scientists say that a person uses only 10% of the abilities of his body and brain. After reading our article, you will learn that people with unusual abilities (including children) have gone down in history and become modern pearls of the Internet.

Reptile Man

Science has long known cases when a person could change his skin, like snakes and other reptiles. Some Buskirk, born in Missouri in 1851, has been changing his skin since childhood and this continues throughout his life.

This happens year after year and always on the same day - June 27th. The skin becomes rough, then peels off in large pieces, and is removed from the legs and arms like tights and gloves.

In place of the peeling skin, a new one appeared, smooth, like a baby’s. Today Mr. Buskirk has his own “skin collection”, which he shows off without embarrassment.

The patient who glows

Anna Monaro suffers from asthma and there was nothing strange about this, but in 1934 the woman lit up, becoming like a fluorescent lamp. Such people frightened her. Indeed, during an exacerbation of the disease, her breasts emitted a blue glow. This was observed for several weeks, which gave doctors every right to document the phenomenon.

Sometimes the bluish glow gave way to green or red. But why such an unusual ability appeared in Anna, no one could clearly say. The psychiatrist voiced the theory that this reaction was caused by electrical organisms that began to rapidly develop in her body and emit radiance. Other doctors simply said that I don’t know the reasons. The woman has come to terms with her phenomenon and continues to shine from time to time.

The boy who never sleeps

Unusual abilities among adults are perceived more or less calmly, but when this occurs among children, it is even more interesting. In fact, children very often become “phenomenal.” For example, a 3 year old boy Rhett Lamb, is no different in appearance, his unusual ability lies in the fact that he does not know how to sleep. The boy feels cheerful throughout the day, and no medical examinations have revealed any abnormalities in the body. He plays like other children, but he cannot sleep. The only interesting thing is, what does he do when his parents go to bed?!

Girl allergic to water

A girl from Australia named Ashley Morris He has been suffering for 14 years due to a serious, but unusual deviation - it is exposed to water, and it does not matter what temperature the water is and in what quantities it comes into contact with the body.

It’s scary to imagine: she experiences pain and itching, even when she starts to sweat, let alone bathe. We don't know what the girl does to cleanse her body, but it clearly makes her uncomfortable. Such unusual abilities prevent poor Ashley from drinking water, and it remains a mystery how she quenches her thirst.

Doctors gave the girl a disappointing but very rare diagnosis of Aquagenic Urticaria.

Ice Man

Wim Hof- this is a person who is able to pass the test of exposure to the lowest temperatures on the body. The Iceman from the Netherlands can withstand the lowest temperatures without blinking an eye. He once set a world record by staying in a pipe filled with cold water and ice for 73 minutes. For another minute he swam under a crust of ice in a frozen lake, and even conquered Mont Blanc in France in only shorts. Hof could have swam in the lake longer, he just had to learn to hold his breath!

He discovered his unusual abilities at the age of 17, but still believes that it’s all about human desire, and it is limitless!

Living mermaid

Hannah Fraser from Australia knows how to make the dream of many girls come true, namely to transform into a mermaid. It all started in childhood: Hannah made a tail-fin out of plasticine, and as she grew up, she realized that she wanted something on a larger scale. Today it may be underwater long time, and swim like a real mermaid.

Unusual abilities of people who made history

Wolf Messing phenomenon

The unusual abilities of Wolf Messing at the age of 11 by neurologist Anabel in Berlin, after the boy ran away from home.

It is worth noting that Messing did not know how to guess notes, drawings, words, and the like. His most important ability was to guess future events; just ask the question “What will happen...”

In 1937, Messing predicted that “if Hitler turns east, Germany will perish,” and in 1953 he predicted Stalin’s death on one of the Jewish holidays, which is what happened.

At the age of 18, he became the host of the ABC program “The Magic of David Copperfield”, then began appearing on the CBS channel. In his life, he demonstrated to the world the most unusual abilities associated with magic. Just remember the disappearance of the plane and the Statue of Liberty, which took place in front of the public.

In addition, Copperfield realized such illusions as passing through the Wall of China, moving to the Bermuda Triangle, flying through the Grand Canyon and much more. real miracles that no one has yet been able to repeat.

The most unusual abilities of ordinary and extraordinary people

In general, where do these unusual abilities come from? It's different for everyone. Sometimes they are laid in the womb, in other cases they appear after experienced shocks, such as a lightning strike and clinical death, and often appear by the will of a person and his persistent desire to do something.

• Here's a bright one for you example of limitless will, when, during the war, a 70-year-old mother carried her lifeless son in her arms for 13 km, without ever putting him down on the ground. Phenomenon, isn't it? But here, most likely, boundless love and maternal instinct played a role.
• Scientists' research says that a person only partially uses the capabilities of his brain, and after reading stories like this it’s hard to argue with that. This has been proven once again Michelle Lotito from France, who could eat whatever he wanted. So, while still a child, Michel “ate” a television, and when he was 15 years old, he turned his unusual abilities into a kind of business, entertaining people for money and eating whatever they wanted: rubber, plastic and even glass. Once within two years, and still ate it! For this, Lotito was included in the Guinness Book of Records.
• Another interesting case from life: biologist K. Richardson can sit in a cage with lions all night and come out unharmed. The lions accept him as “one of their own,” but for what reasons is not known.
• There are people who can only do one thing move objects with your eyes, and even bend metal like a fragile lady Monica Tejada. And the woman Hanuma from Africa knows how cry diamond tears. Miracles, and that’s all, and there are quite a few of them in the world.

Conclusion

It is worth noting that modern children are already ready-made phenomena, so it is worth taking a closer look at them. Perhaps it is children who will push you into the world of extraordinary abilities, where it is so interesting to be! Try it and let me know in the comments!

We know that human capabilities are not limitless, and in general this is true. But some people are born with abilities that go far beyond the ordinary: it is as if the human body decides to break the barriers set by nature. The existence of people with superpowers is direct proof that the human body has capabilities much greater than we can imagine. Who are they - the result of evolution or isolated cases of natural anomalies?

15. Magnet Man - Liew Tou Lin

I try my best not to call him Magneto, after all, he is a movie villain, and Liu Tou Lin is a real person. But with an unrealistic ability to attract metal (and not only metal) objects to your body. It’s as if some kind of force is holding them from the inside - despite the fact that each item can weigh up to 2 kg, and in total the human magnet is able to hold 36 kg on himself. Scientists from the Malaysian University of Technology have concluded that Tou Ling's skin has a unique "adhesion" property, which helps objects "stick" to the body - as if under the influence of a magnetic field. The strangest thing is that this ability is inherited in Tou Lin’s family, and his three grandchildren can boast of the same skill.

14. Supernatural Memory - Daniel Tammet

People with phenomenal mathematical abilities and powerful memories are not uncommon. They can solve complex mathematical equations faster than a computer or reproduce in their memory an event ten years ago with an accuracy of a second. However, Daniel Tammet is the first to describe how his brain works.

For Daniel, each number from 0 to 10,000 has its own image and distinctive characteristics, such as texture, shape, color and feel. For example, the number 289 is quite ugly, the number 333 is much more attractive, and the number Pi is almost perfect. Daniel has Asperger's syndrome, and his method allows him to remember numbers and events with incredible accuracy. For example, he can reproduce Pi to the 22514th decimal place, which he did as a demonstration in 2004. It took 5 hours and 9 minutes.

13. Eagle Vision - Veronica Seider

In movies, we have more than once seen heroes who have “super vision” and are able to see even a fly that is a kilometer away from them. The famous archers Eagle Eye and Legolas are just such. But in the real world such a person exists, and this is Veronica Seider - the world champion in looking at the smallest objects at long distances without the use of binoculars or any other optics. It has been proven that she is able to distinguish between people located at a distance of 1.6 km from her. Her vision is 20 times sharper than the average person's.

12. Sonar Vision – Daniel Kish and Ben Underwood

Do you know how bats “see”? Using echolocation: they make special sounds, and then their auditory system picks up the reflections of sounds from obstacles. Ben Underwood had the same ability: he used sounds to “see” despite losing his sight due to retinoblastoma, an eye cancer. It is not clear how, but he managed to develop an extraordinary ability for echolocation. By making sharp clicks with his tongue, he could “see” objects so well that it greatly improved his quality of life. Unfortunately, Ben Underwood died in 2009 due to a recurrence of cancer. Ben was the brightest of Daniel Kish's students. Daniel is blind and also navigates the world using echolocation (called “sonar vision”). He does it so well that he helps other blind people, teaching them to “see” the world around them the way he does.

11. Beast Whisperer - Kevin Richardson

Kevin is a behavioral zoologist from South Africa who studies animal behavior. He understands them so well that he has literally been accepted into membership by several prides of lions and some packs of hyenas. He eats, sleeps next to and plays with these animals as if they were his family. When communicating with wild animals, Kevin trusts his intuition more than book rules. He is known for treating lions as highly evolved creatures, showing them his respect and emphasizing a sense of community and family, rather than harshly suppressing and training them.

But Kevin warns that his work is dangerous and does not advise anyone to follow in his footsteps without proper training. He communicates and makes friends only with animals that have grown up before his eyes. And yet the animals scratched, bit and wounded him many times... although they never did it intentionally.

10. The Man Who Sees Music - Arthur Lintgen

Some people are not able to learn a second language, but the American doctor Arthur Lintgen can read the language of gramophone records: by the pattern of grooves and their color, he determines what piece of music is recorded there. But Arthur doesn't claim to be a superhero. He attributes his skill to musical erudition and says that it extends only to classical music, from Beethoven onwards. The earlier works, he said, are too similar in structure and difficult to recognize. And when he was given a record of an Alice Cooper album, Lintgen said it looked like a jumble of sounds and sounded like gibberish. However, Arthur Lintgen's ability is unique in its own way.

9. Human Computer – Shakuntala Devi

Shakuntala Devi (1929 – 2013) is clear proof that the human brain is capable of extraordinary things like incredibly complex and fast arithmetic calculations. A Berkeley University professor once asked Shakuntala to calculate the cube root of 61,629,875 and the seventh root of 170,859,375. To the professor's surprise, Shakuntala gave the answers (395 and 15, respectively) within just a few seconds. In 1977, at the University of Dallas, she managed to extract the 23rd root of a number consisting of 201 digits in 50 seconds! The university computer confirmed that the results shown were correct, but it took more than a minute to complete the work.

8. Photographic Memory – Stephen Wiltshire

If you haven't seen this artist's work, you definitely should. Stephen is an autistic artist who can reproduce from memory the most detailed landscape of any city he sees from above. All it takes is a short helicopter flight over the city, and Stephen uses his photographic memory to create a panoramic image of it with stunning accuracy.

7. The Iceman – Wim Hof

While ordinary people attempting to climb Everest or Kilimanjaro need to be properly insulated, Dutch daredevil Wim Hof ​​performs such stunts in nothing but shorts. Extremely cold-resistant, Hof says he uses the tantric technique of tummo meditation, a method of developing internal heat used by Tibetan yogis, to help him regulate his body temperature. Wim Hof ​​is the absolute world champion in bathing in a bath filled with pieces of ice. An ordinary person cannot stay in such a bath for more than 15-20 minutes. Hof's record is almost two hours.

6. Super Samurai – Isao Machii

The Japanese martial artist Iaido masters the techniques of real samurai. He can predict the trajectory of an object with such frightening accuracy that he can easily cut it in half with his sword - and can do this at least every second. He is the fastest man with a sword not only in Japan but in the entire world. Machii can cut through plastic bullets flying at a speed of 300 km/h. It looks like he really is a superhero.

5. Jaws of Steel – Radhakrishnan Velu

It is impossible to imagine what kind of strength a person must have who is able to drag a train of several cars with his own teeth, as Radhakrishnan Velyu, a native of Malaysia, does. For such strong teeth he is called the “Tooth King”. And it’s still unclear - how can you drag a train weighing 260.8 tons over a distance of 4.2 meters, excuse me, with your teeth? The Tooth King claims that when he was 14, an Indian guru taught him to control all parts of the body with the help of his teeth.

4. The Man Who Never Sleeps - Thai Ngoc

Have you ever tried to stay awake for more than 48 hours? Unpleasant experience. Even one sleepless night has a very bad effect on the well-being of an ordinary person, but with the Vietnamese peasant Thai Ngoc, everything is different. He hasn't slept since 1973. He himself believes that the cause of his insomnia was the fever he suffered at that time. All these years this person has been trying to sleep - with the help of medications and even alcohol, but to no avail. What is surprising is that the doctors do not find any abnormalities or serious illnesses in him and say that his health is fine.

3. Super Endurance - Dean Karnazes

There is the endurance of an ordinary person and there is the endurance of the American Dean Karnazes. Dean is a long-distance runner and ultramarathoner. And if he is fed and given water in a timely manner, he can run endlessly, literally until retirement. In other words, his stamina level is so high and his energy regenerates so quickly that he can run without stopping. Among his achievements are, for example, the following: running on a treadmill for 80 hours (560 km) and 50 marathons in 50 states in 50 days.

2. Stomach of Steel – Michelle Lotito

The Frenchman Michel Lotito (1950 – 2007) had an insatiable appetite for completely inedible objects. It is clear that with such abilities there is a direct path to becoming a pop artist. At his performances, “Monsieur Eat Everything” devoured objects made of metal, glass, rubber and plastic, and even indigestion did not torment him later. He is also known for dismantling and gradually eating (over two years) an entire airplane. The walls of Lotito's stomach were twice as thick as they should be, and his gastric juices also worked unusually strong and allowed him to digest everything.

1. Electroman – Raj Mohan Nair

Electricity is dangerous - everyone knows that. An electric shock of even one-tenth of an ampere can be fatal... but not for Raj Mohan Nair. A current of up to 10 amperes can be passed through his body and it will not cause him any harm. The only side effect is momentary blindness. The story of how Raj Mohan discovered his superpower is tragic. When he was 7 years old, his mother died. Unable to cope with grief, the boy tried to commit suicide by climbing onto a power pole and grabbing the exposed wire. To his surprise, he survived and realized that he had extraordinary ability. His body's resistance to electric current is 10 times higher than that of an ordinary person. Therefore, he can pick up exposed wires and pretend to be an electrical circuit.

February 8th, 2016

People have always been interested in what lies beyond the ordinary
perception, something that is inaccessible to the majority. However, along with
there was also interest and fear due to the lack of reliable information and
unknown.

Recently, paranormal or unusual abilities of people have become
subject of social and scientific research, philistine gossip and
newspaper publications. What kind of abilities are these? Where do they come from?

Despite the fact that the human body has already been well studied by doctors and scientists, still...

Mysteries remain that are beyond our understanding.

There are many amazing cases that have happened to ordinary
people and published in the press. Some events just can't be
explain with the help of modern science.

Thus, perhaps the most famous incident occurred when my mother was walking with
with her little son and got distracted. The child ran out onto the road and was hit
under the car. Seeing this picture, the baby’s mother rushed to his aid and
raised the car. This is the case most often nowadays
described by scientists as proof that the human body
has hidden abilities.

Another fairly famous incident occurred during the war. U
The pilot's steering became jammed due to a bolt caught in the mechanism.
Under fear of death, the pilot began to pull the handle with all his strength and miraculously was able to
straighten the plane. After landing, the mechanics carefully examined
control, and found a sheared bolt. As a result of the examination,
it turned out that in order to cut such a bolt it would take
force 500 kilograms.

One man was walking through the forest and accidentally came across a sleeping man.
bear Out of fear, he grabbed a log lying nearby and rushed to run into
towards the nearby village. When the danger had passed, he threw on
ground a log, caught his breath and looked at it. It turned out to be a huge trunk
tree, which he later could not drag alone from the road. The man doesn't even
was able to explain to himself why he grabbed this log.

But such incredible stories happen not only when it comes to one’s own salvation.

There is another case. When a child fell out of a 7th floor window, he
the mother managed to grab it with one hand, while holding onto the brick with the other
cornice, and only with two fingers - the index and middle.
She held on like that until the rescuers arrived, which was then difficult to unclench
her fingers.

A 70-year-old woman carried 13 kilometers on the back of her 40-year-old
son who was in an accident without ever stopping and putting him down
land.

Some researchers argue that a person uses his
abilities by only 10%. And this applies to both the body and the brain.

The amazing ability was demonstrated by the hypnologist Vul - he
had the ability to suggest at a distance. Wool sent a letter to
mail, in which the word was written in his handwriting: “Sleep!” If before
If the patient has already been to see this doctor, then upon receiving the letter
he immediately fell asleep.

The pop artist from France Michel had an amazing ability
Lotito - he can eat anything he sees. When he was still a child, he
“ate” the TV, and from the age of 15 he began to entertain people for money,
eating rubber, glass and metal. Because Michel ate the plane (true
it took about 2 years to eat it), it was included in the book of records
Guinness. Biologist K. Richardson can spend a whole
night. For unknown reasons, the lions accept Richardson as one of their own. Tai
Ngoc from Vietnam has not slept at all since 1973 - it started after that
how he got over the fever.

The phenomenon of Monica Tejada

There are many such inexplicable phenomena in our world. Amazing
the phenomenon is demonstrated to scientists by Monica Tejada from Spain. Under her
Even metal objects bend with a gaze.

There are no tricks here. Scientists placed in a sealed glass vessel
steel wire. However, this did not stop Monica from bending the solid thread into
the shape of a dinosaur with a closed mouth. Devices during this process
recorded an increase in the girl’s body temperature and a decrease in her blood
pressure. This combination leads doctors to a dead end. Wherein
The electroencephalograph showed biocurrents characteristic of a sleeping person. U
Monica has another gift - she can diagnose diseases.

In New Jersey, on the outskirts of Trenton in the 40s, there lived a 90-year-old
an old man named Al Herpin. There was neither a trestle bed nor a bed in his hut -
Al Herpin never slept in his entire life. The old man who lived to see this
age, outlived the doctors who examined him. Appetite and health
Al Herpina were good, mental abilities were average. Certainly,
after a day's work he was tired, but could not sleep. The old man just sat down in
chair and read until I felt rested. After
After regaining his physical strength, he went back to work. Explain
The doctors were unable to solve their patient’s chronic insomnia, just as they
were able to explain the source of his longevity.

There is a known case that occurred in a Russian village. There
There lived an old sick woman named Matryona. She didn't hear well, no
I saw and almost didn’t go. One night her house caught fire. The whole village
ran to the fire. Imagine the surprise of the people when they saw
how this old lady climbs over a high fence. And in her hands
held a large chest, which later several men could not lift.
Where are the limits of human capabilities? And do they exist at all?

At the Mexico City Olympics in 1968, an athlete named Robert
Beamon was able to jump almost 9 meters. Of course it seems impossible
however, Robert's record was broken. And the record that was set at 500
year BC in Ancient Greece, looks absolutely fantastic -
athlete Fail then jumped almost 17 meters in length.

In New York in 1935, an absolutely normal-looking child was born.
However, he lived only 26 days. After an autopsy, it turned out that the child had
the brain was missing. Although it is known that even the most insignificant
damage to the cerebral cortex can lead to death.

The fact that there are people in the world who live with foreign objects in
body, does not surprise anyone now. But here is an incident that happened in
one of the New York hospitals seems simply incredible. In hospital
A man came in with a slight illness. Doctors examined and
found more than 250 objects in his body. Only keys in the patient's body
it turned out to be 26 pieces. About how there are so many objects in his body, man
didn't tell.

An equally striking incident occurred with a 12-year-old Russian
a boy who went to the hospital in one small town with
complaints of dizziness and weakness. Upon examination, doctors found
bullet wound in the heart area. It is unknown how the boy got this
injury, and most importantly, how he survived after that. X-ray established
that the bullet is in the solar artery. The boy was urgently sent to
Moscow, where the bullet was removed from the body. She did the incredible
journey in the body - it pierced the lung and hit the heart, which pushed it out into
aorta. The bullet moved along the vessel until it hit the solar
artery

The famous psychiatrist and neuropathologist Cesare Lombroso had a very
solid reputation in the scientific world. In his book “What After Death”
he told an incident that happened to a 14-year-old girl. She went blind but
at the same time, she acquired a completely new and amazing ability
see.

Dr. Lombroso conducted research, as a result of which
It turned out that the girl sees through her left earlobe and nose. In order to exclude
the slightest possibility of the girl's eyes participating in the experiment
the doctors covered them with a bandage so that the peeking was completely
was excluded. However, despite the measures taken, the girl easily
I read blindfolded and could distinguish colors perfectly.

When a bright light flashed next to her earlobe, she blinked, and when
the doctor wanted to put his finger to the tip of her nose, she jumped back screaming,
that he wants to blind her. Amazing movement of organs has occurred
feelings that affected not only vision. When the experimenter brought
a solution of ammonia to the girl’s nose, she did not react. But how
As soon as he brought the solution to her chin, she jerked in pain. She
I could smell smells with my chin.

I must say that some people know how to completely control
abilities of your body. These include primarily
Indian yogis. Probably the most amazing ability of yogis is
that they know how to stop their own heartbeat. Yogis can
put yourself in a state of “death” - the heart’s work and breathing slow down,
and other vital processes stop.

A yogi can remain in this state for quite a long time. So what are they
are the powers hidden in man? Based on the above, it can be assumed that
that the capabilities of the human body are limitless. You only need
learn to control them.

Diamond tears

A woman named Hanuma living in Africa received the nickname
“diamond” for its unusual ability to cry diamonds. Since childhood
Hanuma didn't cry. The first time this happened was at the age of nine, when the girl
Peeled onions for the first time. Imagine the surprise of the girl’s parents,
when hard crystals began to fall from her eyes instead of tears.

The girl's dad was a jeweler and exposed small crystals without difficulty
determined that they were real diamonds. Parents decided to keep
secretly the unusual abilities of Hanuma and dad used crystals
daughters for making jewelry, which enjoyed great
demand. One of the clients suspected something was wrong and handed over the diamond to
examination, as a result of which it turned out that the stone has
organic origin. The girl became famous throughout the world. But
Scientists have not yet been able to uncover the secret of diamond tears.

Ice man

Dutch resident Wim Hof ​​is not sensitive to any cold. Thanks to
with his unusual abilities, the Dutchman conquered mountain peaks in one
underwear, swam for a long time in icy water and did a lot
similar feats.

Doctors carried out examinations of the body of an amazing person, but
the research results showed no deviations from the norm in
Vim’s body after cold treatments. Unusual abilities of the Dutchman
allow him to feel comfortable in those conditions that for
any other person would be fatal.

"Perpetual motion machine"

A little boy named Ret Lamba, who is three years old, has never in his life
slept. He is awake around the clock. Ret's parents are of course not happy
from such abilities of their son, but most of all they were worried about the issue of health
child. However, as repeated medical examinations have shown,
Lack of sleep does not affect Retta's health in any way, the boy is absolutely
healthy

Recent research has cleared up the picture a little. It turned out that the brain
and the nervous system of an amazing child is arranged in a special way,
thanks to which the boy does not need sleep, his brain rests during
wakefulness.

Man is a reptile

History knows of cases when people had the ability to replace their
skin onto a new one, just as reptiles do. Born in
In 1851, in Missouri, S. Buskirk began changing his skin as a child.
The most amazing thing is that this always happened on the same day - June 27th.
The skin began to become rough, and then fell off in large pieces. From hand and from
She peeled off her feet like gloves or socks.

After the old skin fell off, it was possible to
observe young pink and tender skin, like the one they have
newborn babies. Over the course of several years, Mr. Buskirk collected
"leather" collection.

Glowing patient

Anna Monaro, who suffered from asthma, in 1934 became like
fluorescent lamp. During her illness, a bluish color emanated from her chest.
glow. This phenomenon lasted for several weeks and was documented
doctors. Sometimes the color of the glow changed to red and green. Explanations
No one was able to give this phenomenon.

One psychiatrist suggested that "the phenomenon is caused by electrical and
magnetic organisms that have received quite strong development
in the body of this woman and therefore emit a radiance,” in other words, still
one way to say: "I don't know." Another doctor proposed a theory
electromagnetic radiation, linking it with certain chemical
components found in the patient’s skin, which was close to fashionable
then the theories of bioluminescence.

Dr. Protti, who made a lengthy statement regarding
his observations of Signora Monaro, suggested that her weak
health, together with fasting and piety, increased the number
sulfides in the blood. Human blood emits ultraviolet rays
range, and sulfides can be made to luminesce with ultraviolet
radiation - this explains the glow emanating from Signora Monaro’s chest
(The Times, May 5, 1934).

Anna Monaro

The proposed theory did not explain the strange periodicity or
localization of bluish flashes, and soon the confused researchers
finally fell silent.

Gould and Pyle's book "Anomalies and Curiosities in Medicine" for 1937
describes the case of a woman suffering from breast cancer. Outgoing
from the sore area of ​​the chest there was enough light to see
the dial of a clock several feet away...

In Hareward Carrington's book Death: Its Causes and Related
phenomena" there is a mention of a child who died of indigestion. After
death, the boy’s body began to emit a bluish glow and
spread heat. Attempts to extinguish this radiance led to nothing,
but soon it stopped on its own. When the body was lifted from the bed,
it was discovered that the sheet under him was burned... The only case
radiation of light by a practically healthy person (except, of course,
Saints) is described in the English Mechanic magazine of September 24, 1869:

“One American woman, going to bed, discovered a glow from the upper part
fourth toe of her right foot. When she rubbed her leg, the glow
increased and some unknown force spread the fingers on her. From
a stench emanated from the feet, and both the light emission and the smell did not
stopped even when the leg was immersed in a basin of water. Even
soap could not extinguish or reduce the glow. This phenomenon lasted for three
a quarter of an hour, and the woman’s husband watched him.”

The Church views the phenomenon of “firefly people” approvingly. Dad
Benedict XIV wrote: “...It should be recognized as a fact - the presence of natural
flames that sometimes become visible around the human head, and
It also seems true that sometimes a person's whole body can
fire emanates, however, not like a fire rushing upward, but rather into
in the form of sparks flying in all directions."

People are lightning

The body of an ordinary person is capable of generating in small
quantities, but do not accumulate electricity. However, there are people
whose unusual abilities are that they can
accumulate electricity in itself, and when the opportunity arises, release it to
surrounding objects.

For example, an article was published in the journal Prediction in 1953
year, which told about a baby who received an electric shock
doctors. For another whole day he retained the tension within himself and was
dangerous to others.

But it also happens that unusual abilities awaken in people only with
age. A Chinese worker in 1988 began to notice in his body
some changes, but could not understand what it was until accidentally
did not shock his colleague, knocking him down with a shock.

Rif Mukharyanov is one of those people who were able to survive a lightning strike.

Back in 1965, Reef was struck by ball lightning, and he miraculously survived
alive Over time, he began to have strange dreams, which soon began
come true - his psychic abilities began to awaken.

When he had completely recovered from his illness, his good friend fell seriously ill.
Friend. The doctors didn’t know what to do and just shrugged their shoulders, and that’s when
Reef decided to take advantage of his new opportunities. Literally through
For two weeks my friend stood firmly on his feet.

Living magnet

There are also people who have magnetism. The most amazing case
manifestations of magnetic abilities - the case of the American Frank
McKinstry. His body was pulled towards the ground. Magnetism is especially strong
showed up in the morning. Frank had to move very quickly
without stopping, because his body stuck to the ground, if he stopped there
a couple of seconds, and then without outside help the man could no longer
continue moving.

Often people do not realize that they have some unusual
capabilities. German resident Erika Zur Strindberg discovered
magnetic abilities of your body after watching a TV show,
in which they talked about the magnetism of the Russian woman, Natalia Petrasova.

Just for fun, the German woman put a spoon to her chest and it “stuck” to
woman. Eric then hung almost all the cutlery on himself so that
verify that you have an unusual ability.

Unusual abilities remain to be unraveled

Many scientists agree that this kind of ability
are potentially inherent in every person, but they manifest themselves only in
extreme situations or after severe life shocks. Example
This hypothesis is served by the fortuneteller Vanga, who, having lost her sight,
gained the ability to foresee the future, the present of people and their
of the past.

Also, the famous German clairvoyant Wolf Messing became the owner
of his unusual abilities after having spent a long time in
state of clinical death. This happened when Messing was
eleven years.

There are many known cases where people, having come out of clinical death,
acquired the ability to read minds, speak in previously unknown languages
or even dead languages. An amazing incident happened with
polar explorer pilot Grigory Popov. While repairing an airplane,
Grigory heard some rustling behind him, turning around, he saw
The polar bear is one of the most dangerous predators. The pilot didn't have time
understand nothing, how I already ended up at a two-meter height - on the wing
airplane. He climbed there in one leap.

The media often talks about people who are capable of incredible things. Tissue regeneration, weather control and levitation - is there anything impossible? Of course, many abilities are the invention of a science fiction writer, but it is no secret that you can develop some of them. There is an opinion that many skills were inherited from our ancestors, who were more receptive to exoteric knowledge. So, we dodge an unexpectedly falling object, we feel an inexplicable danger from some person. What superpowers do people have today?

Clairvoyance

This is the ability to see events in the past and future, as well as in parallel worlds. To transfer images to a conscious level, it is necessary to use one more skill - claircognizance. People with superpowers in these areas can simulate the likelihood of actions and their experience at a fast pace. In reality, the individual uses the experience gained and can change the future. It is believed that such a gift can be developed using various techniques and exercises. When passing through the stages of knowledge, the mind opens, and thinking becomes multifaceted, and not linear, like ordinary people.

Extrasensory perception

There are superpowers in people who are distinguished by their extraordinary sensitivity to all types of energy. This phenomenon is called extrasensory perception. The owner of this skill sees auras, chakras, and feels disturbances at the energy level. The psychic can cure the detected changes, but only with the help of words.

Insensitivity to cold and heat

The famous Wim Hof, nicknamed “The Iceman,” spent his entire life developing the ability to control the autonomic functions of the body. Thanks to the use of special techniques and meditations, he became a world record holder in many categories. For example, I spent several hours in an ice bath without any consequences for my body, and climbed Mount Everest in only shorts. Scientists, after conducting a series of studies, came to the conclusion that Wim Hof ​​controls the level of stress hormone and anti-inflammatory molecules in the blood, thereby allowing vegetative processes to accelerate. But this is not the only case of insensitivity to aggressive environmental factors. Ordinary people, without any preparation, also survived after encountering the cold. Thus, pilot Yuri Kozlovsky ejected in winter. In the fall, he received an open fracture of both legs, but was able to survive in the tundra, spending three days there.

Here is the opposite example of human superpower. African-American Willie Jones, having received heatstroke at an air temperature of 32.2 degrees, was able to survive. Although his body heated up to 46.5 degrees, and he was already 52 years old. An extraordinary “friendship” with fire was recorded by the Guinness Book of Records. Reg Morris, a professional fire-eater, managed to exhale a burning flame 9.4 meters long from himself, after which he extinguished 22,888 torches in his mouth in two hours. The results of scientific experiments have shown that the maximum temperature with which a person can come into contact is 841 degrees Celsius. It is to this temperature that the coals and stones are heated on which ritual dances and barefoot walks are performed.

Absolute memory

No less well known are people’s superpowers in memorizing a lot of material and pictures of the world around them. For example, in 1974 in Burma, Bhandanta Visachara recited 16 thousand pages of Buddhist texts by heart. Gu Yang Lin from China was able to memorize 15 thousand phone numbers of the city of Harbin, and Barbara Moore from America sang 1852 songs in 19 days. In 1990, the Guinness Book of Records included in its list Samvel Gharibyan from Yerevan, who the first time remembered 960 out of 1000 unfamiliar words dictated to him.

You can remember not only numbers and words, an example of this is the artist Wiltshire, who has a phenomenal photographic memory. Flying in a helicopter over New York, he was able to recreate on canvas the picture he saw in every detail. Kim Peek, who suffers from Opitz-Kaveggia syndrome, could read two pages of a book at the same time, and even several years later, retell them exactly.

Analyzers work at a super level

There are people in the world with superpowers who are able to sense taste most vividly and intensely. They are called supertasters. The reason for this phenomenon is the large number of special papillae on the tongue. Oddly enough, this ability is most characteristic of women from Asia and Africa. Typically, people with superpowers of this type refuse to eat foods containing bitterness, since for them this is the most noticeable taste.

A person who has absolute pitch is able to reproduce a sound without mentioning it, name the notes of a chord, and recognize the pitch of everyday sounds. To have this skill, you need to mentally classify sounds into categories. Based on the research carried out in this matter, we can conclude that absolute pitch is most common in a sound language environment and with a pitch accent. Such regions include Japan, Vietnam, and areas of China where Mandarin and Cantonese are spoken. People who have superpowers in this area are most often either blind from birth or suffer from a mental disorder.

Another unusual skill that has been repeatedly recorded in the world is tetrachromatism. This is the ability to see not only the red, green and blue regions of the spectrum, but also additional regions, which leads to the ability to perceive 100 million colors. This phenomenon occurs most often in women, and the ability can be transferred to a man, but in the form of color blindness.

Echolocation

People's superpowers are especially clearly manifested as a result of any violations. Thus, to navigate in space, blind individuals can recreate sound and determine the location of objects by echo. You can make sounds by clicking your tongue or knocking with a stick. An example of a person who has this ability is Daniel Kish. He lost his sight as an infant, but was able to compensate by clicking his tongue. As an adult, he taught his way of understanding the world to about 500 children. Magnetic resonance imaging studies have shown that the brains of people who have learned echolocation have undergone a number of changes. Thus, the visual cortex adapts to process echoes, distance and direction of sound waves. This development of human superpower allows one to move long distances in any conditions.

Chimerism

Human superpowers may seem incredible at first glance, but they are easily explained scientifically. Chimerism is extremely rare and is explained by the fusion of two fertilized eggs early in pregnancy. In this type of intercourse, each population of cells retains its genetic character, and the resulting embryo becomes a mixture of the two parental DNAs. No more than 40 cases of chimerism have been recorded in the world. There is an assumption that chimeras are people of a new generation, whom nature adapts to global changes on the planet in the future.

Synesthesia

People's superpowers can manifest themselves in the association of letters, numbers, and words with certain colors and tastes. The phenomenon is explained by the stimulation of certain sensory or cognitive channels, which leads to an involuntary reaction of other channels. Synesthesia most often manifests itself in grapheme-color form. There are other forms of this phenomenon - seeing a certain location of a date in space, or perceiving sounds in color. According to the results of studies conducted in 2006, scientists concluded that one in 23 people has synesthesia. Famous people with this phenomenon included Vladimir Nabokov, Nikola Tesla and others.

Human counters

You can often see on TV that a person can almost instantly multiply huge numbers in his head. Research in this area has suggested that the cause of superpowers is increased blood flow in a certain part of the brain. An example of a person who can count quickly is Shakuntala Devi from India. In front of the commission, the woman multiplied two thirteen-digit numbers, taken at random, in 28 seconds. And Alexander Nekrasov from Lipetsk was able to extract the thousandth root from a number consisting of 547 digits in 61 seconds. The list of “Human Superpowers” ​​in the field of counting is not so small; in almost every country you can meet an individual with such a phenomenon.

"Powerful Fist"

Gino Martino is the owner of superpowers. A professional wrestler could easily break hard objects with his head, such as iron rods and concrete blocks. Gino Martino's skull even withstood the impact of a bowling ball thrown from a height of five meters.

Masutatsu Oyama was distinguished by incredible strength. He was a martial artist that no one could defeat. In addition to his invincibility in battles, Masutatsu Oyama became famous for knocking down one with a blow from an angry bull.

Buddhist monks have always been distinguished by skills beyond the control of ordinary people. Thus, thanks to the practice of “inner fire,” they could significantly increase their body temperature. Master Zhou could heat objects with his own hands, for example, he could easily dry clay or bring water to a boil. He was also distinguished by his ability to heal seriously ill patients, including those suffering from cancer, through simple touches.

Incredible abilities

In France there lived a man who could eat anything. His name was Michel Lotito. Between 1959 and 1997, he consumed approximately nine tons of metal, in the form of televisions, bicycles, shopping carts, a coffin, an airplane, and part of the Eiffel Tower. The scientific world calls this phenomenon “pica” or an eating disorder, which is expressed in an extraordinary craving for inedible things.

Do people have superpowers that allow them to recognize a person’s illness at a glance? It turns out there is. At the age of 10, a girl named Natasha Demkina discovered that she had the gift of seeing through a person’s skin. Numerous studies have confirmed its ability. People began to come to her for a diagnosis. Natalya was nicknamed “The Girl with X-Ray Eyes” and even the Discovery Channel released a documentary about her superpowers.

Fantasy in real life

Real people with superpowers, the list of which we will continue, are represented by the ability to ignite objects and soar above the ground. Many of us dreamed of learning to fly and feeling freedom of movement. Scotsman Daniel Hume made this dream come true. Witnesses confirm the fact that he left the ground and could have hung near the ceiling. In 1867, a psychic and spiritualist, in front of numerous spectators, flew out of a third-floor window and returned back. Famous people (Napoleon Bonaparte), researchers, scientists attended D. Hume's speeches, but no one was able to catch him in a lie. Nelly Kulagina had another amazing and inexplicable ability. She could separate the yolk from the white without touching the egg, and she could also stop the hearts of animals. During experiments, scientists could only record her rapid heartbeat, reaching up to 250 beats.

Science fiction films tell us about heroes who can set things on fire with just a glance. It turns out that this is not fiction. In Mongolia, there really was a girl named Batmukhin Unurme who possessed such a gift, but, unfortunately, she was never able to control her ability. She spent the end of her life in the hospital with a nervous breakdown.

Development of human superpowers

Incredible skills can appear from birth and have no explanation. But scientists have identified a number of reasons that can help in the emergence of superpowers. These include brain injuries, mental disorders, compensation for dysfunctional senses, and autism.

How can you develop your abilities? In fact, there are quite a lot of techniques, starting with breathing exercises and meditation, and ending with hypnosis. Some organizations even invite you to “Human Superpowers” ​​training. If we combine information on methods for developing special skills, we will come to the following conclusion: the most important condition is maintaining a healthy lifestyle. The spirit must also be healthy. You need to give vent to negative emotions during physical exercise, understanding the reasons why they were caused. You need to undergo training regularly, without succumbing to laziness. It must be remembered that the stronger a person becomes, the greater his responsibility to the world.

How often do we try to find something unusual in ourselves that will help us become an individual person and distinguish ourselves from other people. Each of us tried ourselves in the field of magic, magic tricks, and tried to perform some tricks. Americans are completely obsessed with records, and try to break them every time. But there are individuals in the world who do not need any advanced training courses - they themselves will surprise anyone. And they have this gift from nature. Today we will talk about amazing human abilities.

Each of them is an ordinary person with his own reputation, hobbies and work. They are not world stars, they do not have bank accounts, they do not spend millions of dollars on their appearance. We will tell you a secret - these are the top 10 people with incredible abilities who simply live and surprise viewers with their innate talents for free. They don't need recognition, just quiet applause and understanding.

10. Daniel Tammet

An autistic man was born in England. Since childhood, he speaks poorly, does not know where right and left are, he never succeeds in inserting a plug into a socket the first time. But these minor troubles do not prevent him from being a unique person. God created him not like everyone else - in exchange for his shortcomings, he became a professional in numbers. Yes, yes, that's exactly what he called himself. Daniel easily copes with mathematical formulas, problems, and understanding of space. In his head he can perform the most complex calculations, without the use of handy tips, rulers, calculators, etc.

“I see numbers in a special way - they are colors, and each color has its own number.” In principle, if we take computational formulas as a basis and take into account the rules for the formation of colors, then he is right - each number (on a computer) has its own color. Remember, green, red and yellow in photography, and blue, red and yellow in TV are the basic color combinations. Only Daniel has a slightly different view of all this. To calculate the equation, he imagines a landscape, the colors represent the numbers, and he easily manipulates them by changing the pictures in his head. He knows 22517 digits by heart that follow the decimal point in Pi! He speaks 17 languages ​​perfectly, which he learned in 78 days. Reminds me of something – reality transurfing (Zeland).

9. Ben Underwood

This man is from Sacramento, California. He became famous thanks to his instincts. As a child, he was absolutely healthy, loved to play role-playing games, and had good intuition. As a child, he was hospitalized with a congenital but not immediately identified defect. His eyeballs were removed. Since then, Ben Underwood has learned to live without retinal cancer. By the age of 5, he was already moving without the help of a stick. Many considered him a deceiver, because he wore simple glasses and moved like a fully sighted person.

Ben never had a guide dog next to him, he did not use technology for the blind, and he did not ask for help from caretakers and guides. Walking through the streets, he did not touch a single object, nor did he touch any signs or walls. To identify obstacles, Ben uses his tongue, which he has learned to make sounds with. By making clicks, the sound is reflected from the surfaces of oncoming obstacles. Bats live in the same way, using ultrasound to determine the range of a signal when flying.

8. Daniel Smith

Daniel lives in the USA, which is where he is originally from. He became famous for his ability to bend his body in such a way that not a single gymnast could stand nearby. The gutta-percha boy became a five-time champion - he broke records in the Guinness Book, more than once. From the age of 4, he practiced in his home yard, repeating some tricks after circus performers. Instead of tricks, it actually folded, almost in half. A few years later, he began to notice that his talent was a gift from God. He dropped out of school and began training with adult artists.

At the age of 18, he ran away from home with a circus troupe to earn a living the way he wanted. The parents did not accept their son’s choice, so for a long time they could not believe that their only child was a circus performer, and not a scientist or financier. By the age of 21, he became famous throughout the world. He was called the "rubber man" who also acted as an acrobat. They invited him to matches, to the circus, on tours, to magic tricks and concerts. It can crawl into the hole of a toilet seat, curl up 7 times, tie knots out of its body, and also move the heart in the chest.

7. Michael Lotito

Michael was born in France in 1950. At the age of 10, he ate the TV, which scared his parents to heart attacks. The mother, out of fear, called an ambulance, and the father decided to commit suicide, fearing that he would be accused of negligence and the child would be taken away. Fortunately, everything worked out, but their son, Michael Lotito, began to earn money on the streets of the city. By the age of 16, he had created his own program - he could eat glass, rubber, metal, etc. He was given money for such street performances. After the unusual meal, the child did not experience any side effects or stomach upsets. Once he ate a toxic substance - the doctors didn’t find anything either. This fact was registered in the Book of Medical Observations in order to later track the work of the gastrointestinal tract.

Michael himself admitted that he used to cut objects before using them, but then considered it a waste of time. He only washed down everything he ate with water so that it would be “digested better.” In the 1970s, he received the “Monsieur, Eat It All” prize for swallowing a Cessna 150 airplane. Well, he swallowed it, he ate it for 22 months, and was listed in the Guinness Book as the omnivorous Michael. Every day Lotito ate 1 g per day from the plane, he did not eat anything else. Michael was observed by a doctor for six months after this; the metal remained in his stomach, but he would not have died - the walls of his stomach are twice as thick as those of an ordinary person.

6. Radhakrishnan Velu

This man is known to the world thanks to his nickname - “The Tooth King”. He was born in Malaysia and practices tugging. No, he doesn’t just pull them, and not with his hands. Radhakrishnan is a Sami champion for strong teeth. He drags all heavy loads with his jaw, and can even move a train. He moved 17 cars filled with cargo back in 2007, breaking his record. Then there was a holiday - the country's independence day.

The man decided to congratulate the country in this unusual way. He decided to give a gift - such amazing people live in the country, and it should be proud of them. The event itself was talked about in all countries - a man broke his own record, moving the train by 4 meters! His weight exceeded 300 tons, and the man was not even tired - he had no sweat on his forehead, no blood from his nose.

5. Liv Tou Lin

Liv Tou is a real magnet. He attracts all kinds of things! There are people who can use a few spoons on their chest, but Liv is something completely different. Objects themselves are drawn to him, that’s what love is like. When he turned 70, an acquaintance of his (the previous point in our rating) managed to drag a car on a chain with his teeth, and the chain was attached to Liv Tou Lin’s stomach. The man considers his gift to be hereditary, since his sons and grandchildren have the same abilities, and he himself inherited them from his grandfather.

Scientists even tried to study his body and skin - they were not happy with the result, since the mystery remained unsolved. Experts said that the man has no problems with his skin, and there is also no magnetic field around the body. His descendants will also suffer from the phenomenon, and probably several more generations of scientists will discuss this magic, referring to the conclusions of their ancestors. We hope that in 100 years at least someone will be able to find the answer to this question.

4. Thai Ngoc

Scientists, on the contrary, are in shock - if a person does not sleep for more than 2 weeks, this leads to death. Some experiments have shown that people are afraid to return to sleep because they are so comfortable in reality that the dream world no longer attracts them. At the same time, Vietnamese Thai is not sick, he has no liver problems, and every day he carries several kilograms of fertilizer for his garden, which is located 5 kilometers from his home.

3. Tim Cridland

The top three is opened by Tim Cridland - a man who never feels pain. This is not a phenomenon, and he has no problems with pain. He just doesn’t have the sensation of pain syndromes for which the nerve endings are responsible. As a student, at school he received the nickname “king of torture” because they experimented on him, inflicted pain, but he did not feel it at all. One of the guys suggested that he was pretending, and in fact he was just pretending and being patient. He could pierce his hand with a needle, stand in 40 degree frost without trembling, tolerate any temperature - boiling kettles were leaned against him, and boiling water was poured on him.

The boy withstood absolutely everything, and his classmates began to respect his gift. Today, he has become an artist who amazes the audience with his magic tricks. Across America, legends are unspoken. He studied anatomy all his life to amaze people. Doctors explained his gift by the fact that his pain syndrome was much higher than that of the average person. The chance of death from insertion of needles or other objects is zero, as is the case with injuries to the body.

2. Kevin Richardson

Kevin has become a true friend of animals, and only those who belong to the cat family. No, he doesn’t like domestic cats, his calling is to understand the language of predators - lions, tigers, etc. Kevin learned about his gift when he accidentally got lost in the forest. And since then he can spend the night in a cage with lions, cheetahs or other predatory cats. The Internet is full of such videos where animals are happy to see their saviors, but no one from the animal world owes anything to Kevin, he is not the savior of lives and forests. Later, he became the director of his animal center, began traveling around countries and studying the world of cats.

The same hyenas could easily give Kevin their newborn cubs without making an attempt on his life. Leopards can play with him, but the tiger cubs don’t want him to leave them after a fun time. Richardson explains the behavior by saying that his intuition is well developed, and if the animal is against it, he will never approach it. So it’s difficult to call it easy to win over any animal. He simply uses his charm and warmth, does not use sticks, whips, rudeness or assault.

1. Claudio Pinto

The leader of our rating is a legendary man, originally from Belo Horizonte. Miru fell in love with his googly-eyed trick. He can bulge them 4.3 cm forward! This is almost 96% of the space when the eyeball is outside the orbits. The man underwent examinations and tests, but all to no avail - doctors cannot substantiate this fact. Claudio has made a lot of money in his city - he likes to show people his eyes, receiving a reward for it.

There was another such lover of thrills as a spectator, but she did not earn money in such an easy way. This is what you can’t do for money, although who said that this trick or talent cannot be sold. It would be a spectacle, but there would be bread. Claudio himself calls himself not a defective, but a happy person, because he talks about an easy way to earn money. Indeed, what else can you think about if crazy fees are paid for such nonsense!

And these were our top 10 people with incredible abilities. Maybe you have some talent or gift that no one has found out about yet. Tell us about yourself, and we will be happy to write about you in the next article.
