People with unusual abilities. The inexplicable possibilities and abilities of man - an enchanted soul

The human body is created with a large reserve of capabilities. It has been established that the human spine under extreme conditions can withstand a load of 10 tons.

A person uses the reserve of safety endowed by Nature very rarely, once or twice in his entire life, and sometimes this reserve may turn out to be completely unclaimed. Safety margin is a guarantee of our survival, biological protection, and is used only when it comes to life and death. Fear and a sense of self-preservation at the time of an extreme situation “allows” the human body to fully use this reserve, but most people resort to their emergency reserve quite rarely. But once a person has used the entire reserve of his capabilities, then for the rest of his life he never ceases to be amazed at how he managed to do it.

In the face of mortal danger, when the threat to life is colossal and death seems inevitable, the human body can work miracles. There are many examples of this.

An elderly man, when he was chased by an angry bull, literally jumped over a two-meter fence, although in his youth he was not an athlete.

The polar pilot was repairing his plane and suddenly saw a polar bear behind him, who lightly pushed the pilot on the shoulder with its paw, as if inviting him to look back. In the next fractions of a second, the pilot was already standing on the wing of the plane, located above the surface of the earth at a height of about two meters. Later, the pilot could not explain how he managed to do this.

A child is under the wheel of a car, and his mother, in order to save her child, lifts the car as if the car had no weight.

In St. Petersburg, a two-year-old child fell out of a 7th floor window; his mother barely managed to grab her child with one hand; with her other hand she held onto the brick of the cornice. Moreover, she did not hold it with her whole hand, but only with her index and middle fingers, but with a “death grip.” When the woman was removed, her rescuers, with great effort, barely unclenched her fingers. Then they spent several more hours calming down and persuading the woman to let go of her child’s hand.

There is a known case when, during a flight, a bolt got under the pedal in the cockpit of an airplane and the control jammed. To save his life and the car, the pilot pressed the pedal so hard that he cut off the bolt like a blade of grass.

The newspaper Nedelya published an interview with pilot I.M. Chisov, whose plane was shot down by a Messerschmitt in January 1942 over Vyazma. “...the plane began to fall belly up. I had to leave the car. The astro hatch, through which you can get out, was below my head (and I myself was upside down). Well, the altitude began to take its toll: the hoses leading to the oxygen devices were broken. And the hatch cover latch got jammed! If they had told me before that the astro hatch could be knocked out with a punch, I would never have believed it; but I discovered it in exactly this way (I still don’t understand how I did it), - said I.M. Chisov.

There was a fire in the house, and the old woman, “God’s dandelion,” saving her lifelong possessions, dragged a huge chest from the second floor of the burning house. After the fire, two young, healthy guys hardly carried this chest to its original place.

In 1997, two fairly tipsy Belarusians climbed into an enclosure with bison in Belovezhskaya Pushcha; they wanted to pet the bison. Either she didn’t like the smell of alcohol, or she wasn’t in the mood for a lyrical wave, she didn’t accept the tenderness of her fans. Literally after a few minutes of their acquaintance, one of them was sitting on the fence, and the second, less agile, was slightly touched by a horn. The drunkenness passed instantly, the only hope was for my feet. He found himself on the other side of the three-meter fence in the blink of an eye. Since there were no witnesses to their record, the super-fast running and jumping over an obstacle were not included in the Guinness Book of Records.

In 1998, the newspaper “Arguments and Facts” told readers about such a case that happened to a carpenter from the taiga village of Bazhenovka (Kemerovo region). A carpenter was walking through the taiga and came across a sleeping bear. His fear was so great that he grabbed a log lying nearby and ran with it as fast as he could to his home, three kilometers away. Only in the courtyard of the house did the carpenter throw down the log and catch his breath. Later, when he wanted to remove this log from the road, he could not even lift it. To this day, the carpenter cannot understand why he needed this log, because without it he could have run much faster.

There was an accident on a winter road that resulted in casualties. To save her injured 40-year-old son, a 70-year-old woman put him on her back and walked 13 km through deep snow with such a burden, never stopping or lowering her precious burden. When rescuers on a snowmobile made their way to the scene of the accident, following the woman’s footprints, all along the way they saw only the tracks of one pair of legs.

Human capabilities are revealed not only in stressful situations. But also as a result of long-term training, for example, among athletes. Previously, athletes did not even imagine that they could reach a height of 2 m 35 cm, that they could jump 8 m 90 cm in length, that they could lift a barbell of 500 kg in three movements: snatch, clean and jerk, bench press. In August 1985, 23-year-old athlete from Kyiv Rudolf Povarnitsyn cleared the 240 cm bar in the high jump. And literally a few days later, another athlete Igor Paklin conquered a height of 241 cm. The javelin throwers overcame the 95-meter mark. In June 2005, 22-year-old Jamaican runner Asafa Powell set a new world record in the 100-meter dash of 9.77 seconds. Now athletes dream of jumping in height over 241 cm, long jumping 9 m, and lifting half a ton in two movements.

Having lived their lives, most mortals never make use of their capabilities, but each of us is pleased to realize that somewhere deep within you lie enormous forces, that you have a colossal memory, which in a moment of mortal danger can save your life.

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 on him, 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 over 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.

Man is an amazing creature. It’s not for nothing that we are called the crown of nature. Human possibilities are truly limitless. Scientists still cannot explain some of our phenomenal abilities. And man never ceases to amaze and amaze, demonstrating more and more new miracles.

It is not for nothing that it is believed that we use only a small part of our brain. And the rest of the possibilities lie dormant, sometimes waking up in the form of superpowers. The most unusual human talents will be discussed below.

Super taste. The ability to taste food significantly improves our lives. However, there are rare specialists, they are called supertasters. They, by their nature, can taste much better than other people. Scientists have determined the nature of this ability. It lies in the presence of an additional mushroom-shaped growth on the tongue. This is where people's taste buds are located, and supertasters have these abilities to a greater extent. As a result, such people react to taste much more strongly. We know its five main shades: sweet, sour, bitter, salty, and a certain “meat taste”. Supertasters respond best to bitterness. Scientists did not immediately identify this human ability. At first it was noticed that not all people react equally to the taste of foods known to others. Especially to reveal this, Arthur Fox, who worked as a chemist at the American chemical corporation DuPont, conducted a series of experiments. He let me taste phenylthiocarbamide. As a result, not everyone was able to feel its bitterness. This ability is genetically inherent in us. Now other genetic studies have been built on the basis of this test. As a result, of those people who felt the bitterness of phenylthiocarbamide, only a third can be considered supertasters. The abilities of the rest are average. Not everyone likes to eat supertasters. They try to avoid bitter foods. We are talking about coffee, Brussels sprouts and ordinary sprouts, grapefruit juice. Scientists have found that Asians, Africans and women are more likely to be among the supertasters. After all, they are the ones who genetically have a greater chance of getting those same mushroom-shaped growths.

Absolute pitch. There are few people who can identify and reproduce tones. They are said to have absolute pitch. Moreover, such people can not only hear better, they are also able to classify sounds in their brains and remember their categories. In everyday life, this can manifest itself in the form of identifying sounds that are familiar to us - musical instruments, the sounds of a siren or an engine. Such people can easily sing the indicated note, name the chord of the song. There is no problem in remembering the frequency of each tone and naming it. Scientists are still arguing, trying to understand whether absolute pitch is a genetic feature of humans or not. Opinions differ radically here. In total, from 3% of residents in the United States and up to 8% in Europe have absolute pitch. Most of these unique people can be found in music conservatories; for example, in Japan their number reaches 70%. Such a large figure is explained by the fact that in an environment with tonal languages, musical ear is formed much better and more often. We are talking about Vietnamese, Mandarin, Cantonese. Absolute pitch is also common in those born blind, autistic, and those suffering from William's syndrome.

Light perception. Some people can see light from four different sources. There are several such examples in nature. The most famous is the zebra fish. In the light spectrum they distinguish between red, blue, green and ultraviolet ranges. They say that true perception among people is extremely rare. However, two cases of this phenomenon are known. Ordinary people have three types of receptors. Thanks to them, we distinguish between the red, blue and green parts of the spectrum. Each receptor can recognize about one hundred color shades. Then the brain mixes these signals and adjusts the brightness. As a result, we can see some part of the million shades with which our life is actually painted. And people with true light perception, in theory, can already perceive up to 100 million shades. In fact, they see the world with different eyes. As with supertasting, this ability is more common in women. The other extreme, color blindness, is more common in men. Curiously, this unpleasant feature can be inherited from a woman with strong light perception.

Echolocation. This ability allows, in particular, bats to navigate in dark forests. Animals release sound and wait for it to be reflected from an object, an echo. It is used to further determine the distance to the object. But such a unique ability is also found in humans. Some blind people can use echolocation. True, this skill requires long training and strong sensitivity to catch reflected sound. To work with their echolocation, a person must actively create noise. It could even be as simple as clicking your tongue. Thanks to the echo, we understand where exactly objects around are located. It is believed that people with this skill can determine not only the location of an object, but also its size. Only humans cannot generate and hear high-frequency sounds, as dolphins or bats can. So we can only determine the location of the largest objects. But animal echolocators have much more possibilities. The most famous people with the ability to echolocate are Daniel Kish, James Holman and Ben Underwood. The name of the latter appears most often in the press. He lost his sight at the age of three, but gained a new unique ability.

Genetic chimerism. In his Iliad, the great Homer described an unusual mythological creature. It possessed body parts from various animals. The name of the monster gave its name to a rare genetic disorder - chimerism. It is also called tetragameticism. The disorder occurs in both humans and animals during those early stages of pregnancy when two fertilized eggs or embryos fuse into a single unit. Each zygote has a copy of its parent's DNA, hence two different genetic strands. During fusion, the cells retain their genetic character, and the embryo receives a mixture of two DNAs. It can be said that the human chimera is essentially its own twin. In humans, such a deviation is very rare. Scientists have counted about 40 such cases. Typically, DNA testing is used to understand whether a person is biologically related to those who claim to be their parents. However, this test can also reveal cases of chimerism. This happens if the DNA result suddenly shows that the child is not biologically related to his mother. The thing is that the child simply inherited a different DNA profile. This is exactly what happened in the famous story with Lydia Fairchild. Based on DNA tests on her and the children, the state concluded that she was not the biological mother. People with genetic chimerism have more advanced immune systems. They are tolerant of both genetically distinct cell types present in the body. In practice, this means that there may be many more potential organ donors for human chimeras.

Synesthesia. Let's imagine that each letter or number will be associated with some color. And some words will simply evoke taste sensations. Both of these forms belong to a neurological disorder called synesthesia. It manifests itself in the involuntary reaction of some sensors to the stimulation of completely different ones. This feature is genetic; it usually manifests itself in the association of numbers and letters with certain colors. However, such an unusual neurological disease does not make a person disabled at all, since abilities do not suffer from it. Almost all people with synesthesia are unaware that some events in their lives evoke more sensory responses than most others. True, those with synesthesia believe that this deviation still negatively affects their lives. It is still difficult to say exactly how many people have such a deviation. Data vary from 1 to 20 people per 20 thousand. When a group of strangers was studied in 2005-2006, it turned out that about 5% had synesthesia. Among famous people with such a deviation are the writer Vladimir Nabokov, composer Olivier Messiaen, and physicist Richard Feynman.

Calculator people. People with autism have many interesting characteristics. In particular, they constitute a most extraordinary group of connoisseurs. Such people can carry out complex calculations in their heads. Trained specialists also have this ability, we are talking about mathematicians, linguists and writers. However, in untrained autistics this talent is quite interesting. Many of these people are already born with savant syndrome. But of all the people with such a deviation, only half are autistic. This syndrome is poorly understood; it usually develops throughout life, possibly due to head trauma. In total, there are at least a hundred of the most famous outstanding autistic scientists in the world who have the ability to quickly operate with large numbers in the brain. Recent experiments have shown that there is a certain factor that helps human calculators solve mathematical problems much faster than ordinary people. We are talking about blood flow to the part of the brain that is responsible for mathematical calculations. For these people, this norm is six to seven times higher than usual. Among people with such extraordinary skills are Salo Finkelstein, Alexander Aitken, and Daniel McCartney. And Daniel Tammet is not only autistic, but also susceptible to synesthesia.

Super memory. There are people who can instantly remember everything they see. This photographic memory is also called living memory. Thanks to this, people remember sounds, images or objects themselves very precisely. The most famous example is Akira Haraguchi. She was able to remember 100 thousand decimal places of Pi. Autistic Steven Vilchir was able to depict his holiday in Rome in great detail in his drawings. And the film "Rain Man" talks about Raymond Babbitt, who also had a living memory. Dustin Hoffman's character could remember about 12 thousand books from memory. The question of the existence of true photographic memory remains open. But it is already clear that this ability is evenly distributed between both sexes. But no one has yet succeeded in learning living memory through long-term training.

Immortal cells. Humanity has long been looking for a path to immortality. But today science knows one person whose cells turned out to be immortal. They are capable of dividing endlessly even outside their native body. This person is a woman, Henrietta Lacks. She was born in 1920, and at 31 she was diagnosed with cervical cancer. A year of serious illness passed and Henrietta died. Some unknown surgeon took samples of tumor tissue without the consent of relatives. This material was then given to Dr. George Gee. This scientist multiplied tissue samples from a woman for his laboratory, creating from them an endless cell line - the HeLa line (on behalf of Henrietta LAX). It turned out that the cells from Henrietta's tumor had an active form of the enzyme and it spread very quickly. HeLa multiplied faster than even other cancer cells. In 1951, doctors announced that medicine would now take a new path in research into the treatment of cancer. Nowadays, HeLa cells are very common in laboratories. They even evolved, adapting to new conditions, and some branches appeared. Today, Henrietta's living cells exist even more than she had during her lifetime. Their mass exceeds the weight of the woman herself. Unfortunately, she herself will never be able to know what contribution she made to science. In 1954, HeLa cells were used by Jonas Salk to develop a vaccine against polio. Since then, cells have been actively used in the study of cancer, AIDS, the effects of radiation, and poisoning by toxic substances. And HeLa turned out to be in demand for cloning.

Who said that people with superpowers can only be found in movies, cartoons and comics?

With this selection I want to prove to you that such people can be found in the real world. Of course, they do not fly like birds and are not able to move at the speed of light, but each of them has extraordinary abilities and talents that science will not be able to explain for a long time.

Gino Martino: Anvil Man

Gino Martino is an American professional wrestler and entertainer who shocks audiences with his incredible ability to break hard objects with his head, including iron bars, baseball bats and concrete blocks. His skull could even withstand bowling balls falling from a height of five meters. According to doctors, Gino's unusual physical ability is due to the fact that he naturally has a super-strong skull. For this he was nicknamed the Anvil Man.

Tim Cridland: King of Torture

Tim Cridland, who performs under the stage name "Zamora - King of Torture", has demonstrated to the world for decades his unique ability - his exceptional tolerance for pain. He stabbed himself with swords, swallowed fire and swords, lay down on nails - and these are just a few of the dangerous stunts he performed throughout his career. Tim is a Guinness Book of Records record holder.

Wim Hof: The Iceman

Dutchman Wim Hof ​​has an amazing ability to withstand extremely low temperatures. He has run marathons barefoot in the snow, plunged into cold water and set a world record for staying in an ice bath of 1 hour and 52 minutes. In addition, Wim Hof ​​climbed to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro wearing only shorts, for which he received the nickname “Ice Man”. The man claims that he has reached a state in which he does not feel cold at all, solely thanks to meditation. Researchers have confirmed that Vim is indeed capable of conscious control of his autonomic nervous system and immune system responses.

Masutatsu Oyama: could knock down a bull with one blow

Masutatsu Oyama (1923-1994) was a martial artist and champion that no one could defeat. They say that over three days he fought one hundred fights lasting no more than two minutes with various opponents and emerged victorious from each one. Masutatsu Oyama also became famous for fighting angry bulls with his bare hands and being able to knock them down with just one blow.

Tibetan monks practicing tummo: able to generate enormous amounts of heat with their own bodies

It is known that Buddhist monks who practice tummo (yoga of internal fire) are able to increase their own body temperature to an incredibly high level without moving a muscle. To demonstrate their extraordinary abilities, they place large towels soaked in ice water on their shoulders, and within an hour of deep meditation they become completely dry. Science has not yet been able to explain the ability of a person to consciously increase the temperature of his own body.

Master Zhou: "The Pearl of China"

Master Zhou is a healer and master of Tai Chi, Kung Fu and Qigong. The "qi" in the word "qigong" is translated as "heat"; This is precisely where Master Zhou’s extraordinary ability lies: he has the rare gift of heating objects with his own hands. He demonstrated his extraordinary talent by drying clay and bringing water to a boiling point. Master Zhou also uses his unique ability to cure tumors, body pain and a variety of other ailments that plague the common people. His patients included such famous figures as the Dalai Lama and members of the Los Angeles Lakers basketball team. For his exceptional gift, Master Zhou received the nickname “The Pearl of China.” He claims that the appearance of “chi” energy in his hands is the result of constant meditation.

Michelle Lotito: “Monsieur will eat everything”

It was not without reason that the Frenchman Michel Lotito (1950-2007) was called ‘Monsieur Mangetout’ in his homeland, which in Russian sounds like “Monsieur will eat everything.” Between 1959 and 1997, it literally consumed about nine tons of metal objects, including an airplane, seven televisions, 18 bicycles, 15 shopping carts, a coffin and part of the Eiffel Tower. What is the reason for Lotito’s manifestation of such a shocking ability? This rare phenomenon in science and medicine is known as pica, an eating disorder that involves craving non-food substances. This, along with the unusually thick mucous membrane of the stomach, allowed Lotito to consume a huge amount of metal, which, by the way, he cut into small pieces, poured with vegetable oil and swallowed with water. Michel Lotito died, oddly enough, of natural causes.

Isao Machii: Super Samurai

Isao Machii stuns audiences with his incredible sword skills: he is able to cut in half a plastic bullet fired from an air gun, traveling at over 200 mph.

Ben Andenrwood: navigated space using sounds

Ben Andenrwood was born in 1992; at the age of three, he underwent a complex operation during which both eyes were removed. But Ben was significantly different from other visually impaired people: he did not need a cane or a guide dog, and all because he learned to navigate in space using sounds. By the age of five, Ben had developed echolocation, a skill that allows him to “see” objects around him by perceiving sound signals reflected from them. Thanks to this, he, like all normal children, could skateboard, play football, defend himself from bullies, and so on. Unfortunately, Ben was unable to overcome the disease, which led him to complete blindness. He died in 2009 at the age of 16.

Natalia Demkina: X-ray vision

Natalya Demkina first discovered her unique ability to see through human skin at the age of ten and has since used it to diagnose people who turn to her for help. To prove or disprove the girl's claims that she has x-ray vision, medical experts conducted a number of extensive studies with her participation.
In 2004, the Discovery Channel released a documentary about the extraordinary abilities of Natalia Demkina entitled “The Girl with X-Ray Eyes.” During a study conducted by the Committee of Skeptical Inquiry (CSI), Natasha was asked to determine the health status of six volunteers who had undergone surgery or had physical abnormalities. The girl examined patients for four hours and was able to correctly diagnose four of them. Representatives of the KSI considered these results inconclusive, and the research ended there. Nevertheless, Natalya continues to help sick people to this day.
