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 natural anomaly?
15. Magnet Man - Liew Tou Lin
I try my best not to call him Magneto, after all, he’s a movie villain, and Lew Tou Lin is a real man. But with an unrealistic ability to attract metal (and not only metal) objects to your body. It’s as if some force is holding them from the inside - despite the fact that each item can weigh up to 2 kg, and in total the magnet man is able to hold 36 kg. Scientists from Malaysia University of Technology came to the conclusion that Tou Ling’s skin has a certain unique “adhesion” property, which helps objects “stick” to the body - as if under the influence 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 know how to solve complex problems mathematical equations faster than a computer or reproduce in memory some 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 10000 has its own image and distinctive characteristics, such as texture, shape, color and feel. For example, the number 289 looks very 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 her eyesight ordinary person.
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 in him and serious illnesses and they 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. Lotito's stomach walls were twice as thick as they should be, and his gastric juice also worked unusually hard 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.
In the modern world, information about the unusual abilities of people is no longer uncommon. Innate gifts and unique abilities are unique, they are developed and improved by long-term training, special physical exercise, combining them with knowledge of the world and ancient heritage.
People with telekinesis have unlimited clairvoyance and astral travel. The uniqueness of such people is that they are able to influence material objects without using their physical powers. They move objects with the power of thought.
A manifestation of telekinesis is spiritualistic seances of mediums.
Mediums convince that they are able to communicate with deceased people who have moved to other world. Very often such sessions are simply a theatrical performance that has nothing to do with the unique abilities of people.
Telepathy is a rare ability to communicate without words. Information is transmitted by the power of thought, the formation of certain semantic images. It is believed that having telepathic abilities, you can read people's thoughts from a distance. Such opportunities human brain sometimes they are scary. After all, it is difficult to hide secret desires and thoughts from such a person. It is believed that it is very easy for a person with the gift of telepathy to reveal any secret. However, the gift of telepathy itself remains the biggest mystery for scientists, which people with superpowers are in no hurry to reveal.
Hypnosis is caused by physical or psychological impact. A person with hypnotic abilities can easily influence the consciousness of another person. This real force has great potential. Therapeutic hypnosis is widely used to relieve people from psychosomatic diseases. Psychotherapists use hypnosis to treat nervous disorders. Thundered in the recent past unique phenomenon Anatoly Kashpirovsky. The new psychological direction he created opened up unique opportunities in the treatment of diseases.
Currently, psychics and predictors, witches and magicians using their psychic abilities. This human phenomenon has scientific basis. Everything that happens on Earth is interconnected into a single energy system. People who have the ability to sense the energy of living beings or the energy traces of the dead are called psychics.
Extrasensory abilities are established at birth. They can be detected in a small child or the appearance of the phenomenon is associated with some event. Many representatives of this unique group showed phenomenal abilities after injuries or being in a state clinical death. Thus, the famous Bulgarian seer Vanga developed unique abilities after being struck by lightning. The unique gift of clairvoyance allowed a certain insight to predict the fate of people and entire nations.
The phenomenon of clairvoyance has always been present. Nostradamus, Joan of Arc, Leonardo da Vinci, Vanga, Seraphim of Sarov, Wolf Messing - this is not a complete list of people who possessed this gift.
The human mind has unlimited possibilities. The most striking confirmation of this is the paranormal abilities of people. The gift of foresight, the ability to see through a wall, move objects in space with just the power of thought, clairvoyance and telekinesis - this list of paranormal phenomena can be continued, listing the phenomenal abilities of people. Phenomenon modern world – frequent occurrence people demonstrating unusual abilities, which sometimes have no scientific explanation.

According to him, each number up to 10,000 has its own unique shape, and he sees the results of calculations in the form of landscapes, while feeling whether the number is prime or composite.
For example, Daniel described the visual image of the number 289 as “ugly,” 333 as “especially attractive,” and the number Pi as “beautiful.”

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 on to the brick with the other
cornice, and only with two fingers - index and middle.
She held on like that until the rescuers arrived, and then they barely unclenched it.
her fingers.
70 summer 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
with a gaze Even metal objects bend.
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
heart area bullet wound. 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 Taken measures, girl with ease
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
solution 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
the fact 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 who 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 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.

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 nervous system amazing child are built 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 covering to a new one, just like 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
watch the young pink and delicate 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
her fourth finger right leg. 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 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 hit 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 hit ball lightning, and miraculously he remained
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
their unusual abilities after staying for a long time V
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

1. Autistic person from the UK, Daniel Tammet, has difficulty speaking.
does not distinguish between left and right, does not know how to insert a plug into a socket,
but at the same time he easily carries out complex mathematical calculations in his mind.
“I represent numbers in the form of visual images. They have color, structure, shape,” says Tammet. - Number sequences appear in my mind as landscapes. Like paintings. It’s as if the universe with its fourth dimension appears in my head.”
Daniel knows by heart 22,514 digits following the decimal point in pi and speaks eleven languages: English, French, Finnish, German, Estonian, Spanish, Romanian, Icelandic (learned in 7 days), Lithuanian (he gives his preference), Welsh and in Esperanto. 
2. A young man from Sacramento (California) - Ben Underwood - was born absolutely healthy child but his eyes were removed surgically due to retinal cancer at the age of three. However, Ben continued to live a full life as a sighted person. 
At the same time, he never had a guide dog or a cane; he does not help himself with his hands, even if he moves in an unfamiliar room. Instead, Ben uses his tongue to make clicking sounds that bounce off nearby objects. 
Doctors' studies have shown that the boy's hearing has not become worse as compensation for the loss of vision - he has the hearing of an ordinary average person - Ben's brain has simply learned to translate sounds into visual information, which makes the young man look like bat or a dolphin - it is capable of capturing echoes, and based on this echo, determining the exact location of objects. 
3. Daniel Smith, a gutta-percha man from the United States who is a five-time Guinness World Record holder, began twisting his body at the age of four, believing that he was not doing anything special. But Daniel soon realized what talent he had, and at the age of 18 he ran away from home with a circus troupe. 
Since then, the “rubber man” has taken part in many circus and acrobatic performances, basketball and baseball matches, and has been a guest on most famous television shows and programs. Among them: Men in Black 2, HBO's Carnivale, CSI: NY, and others. 
The most flexible man alive does incredible things with his body: he can easily fit through a hole in a tennis racket and through a toilet seat, and he can also curl himself into incredible knots and compositions, and move his heart across his chest. Doctors believe that Daniel was given incredible flexibility from birth, but he himself took it to the maximum possible limit. 
4. Frenchman Michael Lotito, born in 1950, opened his amazing abilities At the age of 9, after scaring his parents to death, he ate the TV. From the age of 16, he began entertaining people for money, eating metal, glass, and rubber. It is interesting that Lotito’s body never showed any side effects, even when what was eaten contained toxic substances. 
Usually the object is disassembled into parts, cut into pieces, and Lotito swallows them with water. The omnivorous Michael, nicknamed “Monsieur Eat It All,” was included in the Guinness Book of Records for eating a Cessna 150 airplane. He ate it for two whole years - from 1978 to 1980 - consuming about a kilogram of the airplane. in a day. 
The latest x-ray showed that there were still pieces of metal in Lotito's body. And he didn’t die only because the walls of his stomach are twice as thick as those of the average person. 
5. Radhakrishnan Velu, known as the "Tooth King", also has a rare ability. This Malaysian practices pulling vehicles with his teeth. 
On August 30, 2007, on the eve of Malaysia's 50th Independence Day, this man broke his own record by pulling a train with his own teeth. 
This time the train consisted of 6 cars and weighed 297 tons. Harikrishnan managed to pull the train 2.8 meters. 
6. Liew Thow Lin – a magnetic person. At 70 years old, Harikrishnan's compatriot Velu managed to pull the car with the help of an iron chain attached to an iron plate on his stomach. 
Liv Tou Lin considers the ability to attract metal objects to be hereditary, since besides him, his 3 sons and 2 grandsons are endowed with the same amazing and incredible gift. 
Scientists, meanwhile, are trying to no avail to explain this phenomenon: there is no magnetic field around the Malaysian, and his skin is fine. 
7. Thai Ngoc, a 64-year-old Vietnamese man, forgot what sleep was after he had a fever in 1973.
“I don’t know how insomnia affects my health,” he says, “but I’m quite healthy and can run a household just as well as anyone else.” As proof, Ngoc mentions that he carries two 50-kilogram bags of fertilizer several kilometers from his home every day. 
And during the medical examination, doctors did not find any diseases in the Vietnamese, except for minor abnormalities in the functioning of the liver. 
8. Tim Cridland – a person who does not experience pain. Even at school, the “King of Torture” amazed his classmates when, without blinking an eye, he pierced his hands with needles and painlessly withstood any heat and cold. 
And today Tim demonstrates terrifying things to numerous audiences across America. To do this, he had to study anatomy for a long time. After all, when the admiring eyes of spectators look at you, safety comes first. 
Scientific research showed that Tim has a much higher pain limit than the average person. Otherwise it is no different from ordinary people. Including the degree of damage caused when piercing the body with stilettos, as well as the chance fatal outcome for these injuries. 
9. Kevin Richardson, relying on instinct, makes friends with a family of cats, but not domestic ones, but predatory ones. Without the slightest fear for his life, Kevin can spend the night with the lions. 
Cheetahs and leopards, capable of tearing apart a person in a split second if desired, mistake the biologist for one of their own. Even the unpredictable hyenas are so accustomed to Kevin that the female hyena, for example, allows him to hold her newborn cubs. 
“I rely on intuition when weighing my chances when dealing with animals. “I will never approach an animal if I feel that something is wrong,” says Richardson. – I don’t use sticks, whips or chains, just patience. It's dangerous, but for me it's a passion, not a job." 
10. Claudio Pinto from the city of Belo Horizonte is better known as the man with bulging eyes, because he is able to bulge his eyes 4cm, that is, 95% of the eye sockets. 
Pinto went through a lot medical examinations, and the doctors say that they have never before seen a person who is capable of doing this to the eyes.
"That's quite easy way make money. I can widen my eyes 4 centimeters - it's a gift from God and I feel happy," says Claudio.
