People have always been interested in what lies beyond the ordinary.
perception, something that is inaccessible to the majority. However, along with
interest was present and fear due to the lack of reliable information and
uncertainty.
FROM recently paranormal or unusual abilities of people have become
the subject of social and scientific research, philistine gossip and
newspaper publications. What are these abilities? Where do they come from?
Despite the fact that the human body has already been well studied by physicians and scientists, nevertheless ...
There are mysteries that are beyond our understanding.
There are many amazing cases that have occurred with ordinary
people and published in the press. Some events just can't be
explain with modern science.
So, perhaps the most famous case happened when my mother was walking with
her little son and got distracted. The child ran into the road and hit
under the car. Seeing this picture, the baby's mother rushed to his aid and
lifted the car. This is the most common case these days.
described by scientists as evidence that the human body
has hidden powers.
Another fairly well-known incident occurred during the war. At
the pilot, due to a bolt that got into the mechanism, the steering jammed.
Under fear of death, the pilot began to pull the handle with all his might 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 off such a bolt, it would be required
force 500 kg.
One man was walking through the forest and accidentally stumbled upon a sleeping
bear. Out of fear, he grabbed a log lying nearby and rushed to run into
side of the nearby village. When the danger was over, he threw on
ground log, caught his breath and looked at him. It turned out to be a huge trunk
tree, which he then 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 happens not only when we are talking about your own salvation.
There is another case. When a child fell out of a window on the 7th floor, his
mother managed to grab with one hand, and with the other she held on to the brick
cornice, and only with two fingers - index and middle.
She kept like this until the rescuers arrived, who then with difficulty unclenched
her fingers.
70 summer woman Carried 13 kilometers on the back of her 40 year old
son who had an accident, never once stopping and lowering him to
earth.
Some researchers argue that a person uses his
abilities by only 10%. And this applies to both the body and the brain.
An amazing ability was demonstrated by the doctor hypnologist Vul - he
had the ability to inspire at a distance. Vul sent a letter to
mail, in which the word “Sleep!” was written in his handwriting. If before
this patient has already visited this doctor, when receiving a letter
he immediately fell asleep.
A 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 in a cage with lions kissing
night. For unknown reasons, the lions mistake Richardson for their own. Tai
Ngoc from Vietnam has not slept at all since 1973 - this began after
how he got sick with a fever.
Monica Tejada Phenomenon
There are many similar inexplicable phenomena in our world. Amazing
Monica Tejada from Spain demonstrates the phenomenon to scientists. under her
stare even metal objects bend.
There are no tricks here. In a glass sealed vessel, scientists placed
steel wire. However, this did not prevent Monica from bending a solid thread into
the shape of a dinosaur with a closed mouth. Instruments 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. At
Monica has another gift - she can diagnose diseases.
In the state of New Jersey on the outskirts of Trenton in the 40s lived a 90-year-old
an old man named Al Herpin. In his shack there was no trestle bed, no bed -
Al Herpin never slept in his entire life. The old man who lived
age, survived the doctors who examined him. Appetite and health
Al Herpin was good, mental ability was average. Of course,
after the day's work he was tired, but could not sleep. The old man just sat in
armchair and read until he felt rested. After
recovery of physical strength, he again set to work. Explain
chronic insomnia of their patient, the doctors could not, as they
were able to explain the source of his longevity.
A case is known that occurred in a Russian village. There
there lived an old sick woman named Matryona. She didn't hear well
I saw and didn't go. One night her house caught fire. Whole village
ran to the fire. What was the surprise of the people when they saw
how this old woman 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 possibilities? And do they even exist?
In Mexico City on Olympic Games 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. A 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
the brain was missing. Although it is known that even the smallest
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, no one is surprised now. But here's what happened in
one of the hospitals in New York, seems simply incredible. In hospital
A man came in with a slight malaise. Doctors examined and
more than 250 objects were found in his body. Only keys in the patient's body
turned out to be 26 pieces. About how there are so many objects in his body, man
didn't tell.
An equally striking case occurred with a 12-year-old Russian
a boy who went to a hospital in a small town with
complaints of dizziness and weakness. On examination, doctors found
area of the heart bullet wound. It is not known how the boy got this
wound, and most importantly - how he survived after that. X-ray installed
that the bullet is in the solar artery. The boy was rushed to
Moscow, where the bullet was removed from the body. She did the incredible
journey in the body - pierced the lung and hit the heart, which pushed her into
aorta. The bullet moved along the vessel until it hit the solar
artery.
The famous psychiatrist and neurologist 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 is blind, but
at the same time, she had a completely new and amazing ability
see.
Dr. Lombroso conducted research, as a result of which
it turned out that the girl sees with her left earlobe and nose. In order to exclude
the slightest possibility of participation of the girl's eyes, during the experiment
doctors covered them with a bandage so that peeping was completely
excluded. However, despite the measures taken, the girl easily
I read blindfolded and could distinguish colors perfectly.
When a bright light flashed near her earlobe, she blinked, and when
the doctor wanted to put a finger to the tip of her nose, she jumped back screaming,
that he wants to blind her. There has been an astonishing movement of organs
feelings, which affected not only vision. When the experimenter brought
ammonia solution to the girl's nose, she did not react. But how
as soon as he brought the solution to his chin, she twitched in pain. She is
smelled with her chin.
I must say that some people are able to completely control
abilities of your body. These are primarily
Indian yoga. Perhaps the most amazing ability of yogis is
that they can stop the beating of their own hearts. Yogis can
enter yourself into a state of "death" - the work of the heart and breathing slow down,
and other life processes stop.
A yogi can stay in this state for quite a long time. So what are
powers hidden in man? Based on the foregoing, it can be assumed
what opportunities human body are limitless. You only need
learn to control them.
Diamond tears
A woman named Khanuma, who lives in Africa, received the nickname
"diamond" for its unusual ability to cry diamonds. Since childhood
Khanuma did not cry. The first time it happened at the age of nine, when a girl
I peeled onions for the first time. What was 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 exposing small crystals without difficulty
determined that they are real diamonds. The parents decided to keep
in secret, the unusual abilities of Khanuma and dad used crystals
daughters for the manufacture of jewelry, which enjoyed great
demand. One of the clients suspected something was wrong and handed over the diamond for
examination, as a result of which it turned out that the stone has
organic origin. The girl became famous all over the world. But
Scientists have not been able to solve the mystery of diamond tears so far.
man is ice
Wim Hof, a resident of Holland, is not sensitive to any cold. Thanks to
with his unusual abilities, the Dutchman conquered the mountain peaks in one
underwear, swam long time in ice water and did a lot
such feats.
Doctors performed physical examinations amazing person, but
study results showed no abnormalities in
Vim's body after cold procedures. The unusual ability of the Dutchman
allow him to feel comfortable in those conditions that for
any other person will prove fatal.
"Perpetual Motion"
A kid named Ret Lamba, who is three years old, has never in his life
slept. He is awake around the clock. Ret's parents aren't happy, of course.
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 Ret's health in any way, the boy is absolutely
healthy.
Recent studies have clarified the picture a little. It turned out that the brain
and nervous system amazing baby 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 cases when people had the ability to replace their
skin on a new one, just like reptiles do. born in
In 1851, in Missouri, S. Buskirk began to change his skin as a child.
The most amazing thing is that it always happened on the same day - June 27th.
The skin began to roughen, and then fell off in large pieces. From hands and from
legs, she peeled off like gloves or socks.
After the old skin fell off it, it was possible in its place
to observe young pink and tender skin, like that which
newborn babies. For several years, Mr. Baskirk collected
leather collection.
Luminous 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 has been documented
doctors. Sometimes the color of the glow changed to red and green. Explanations
no one could give this phenomenon.
One psychiatrist suggested that "the phenomenon is caused by electrical and
magnetic organisms, which have received a sufficiently strong development
in the body of this woman and therefore emit radiance, ”in other words, still
one way to say "I don't know". Another doctor suggested a theory
electromagnetic radiation by associating it with certain chemical
components found in the skin of the patient, which was close to fashionable
then the theory of bioluminescence.
Dr. Protti, who made a lengthy statement regarding
his observations on Signora Monaro, suggested that her weak
health, together with fasting and piety, increased the number of
sulfides in the blood. Human blood emits ultraviolet rays
range, and sulfides can be made to luminesce in ultraviolet
irradiation - this explains the radiance 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 confused researchers
finally faded away.
Gould and Pyle's Anomalies and Curiosities in Medicine, 1937
describes the case of a woman with breast cancer. Outgoing
from the diseased area of the chest, the light was sufficient to see
the face of a watch several feet away...
In Hareward Carrington's 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 came to nothing,
but soon it ceased on its own. When the body was lifted from the bed,
it turned out that the sheet under it was burned ... The only case
practically emitting light a healthy person(excluding, of course,
saints) is described in The English Mechanic, September 24, 1869:
“An American woman, going to bed, discovered the glow of the upper part
the fourth toe of her right foot. When she rubbed her leg, the glow
increased and some unknown force parted her fingers on it. From
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 event lasted three
quarter of an hour, and his husband watched this woman.
The church treats the phenomenon of "firefly people" approvingly. Dad
Benedict XIV wrote: “... It should be recognized as a fact - the presence of a natural
flames, which sometimes become visible around the human head, and
also seems to be true that sometimes from the whole body of a person can
fire, but not like a fire rushing upward, but rather in
the form of sparks flying in all directions.
People are lightning
The body of an ordinary person is able to generate in small
quantities, but do not accumulate electricity. However, there are people
whose unusual ability is that they can
accumulate electricity in oneself, and if possible, dump it on
surrounding objects.
For example, in the journal Prediction, an article was published in 1953
year, which told about a baby who was electrocuted
doctors. For another whole day, he retained tension in himself and was
dangerous to those around you.
But it also happens that unusual abilities wake up in people only with
age. A Chinese worker in 1988 began to notice in his body
some changes, but could not figure out what it was until inadvertently
did not shock his colleague, knocking him down with a discharge.
Rif Mukharyanov is one of those people who managed to survive after being struck by lightning.
Back in 1965, the Reef hit ball lightning and he miraculously stayed
alive. Over time, he began to have strange dreams, which soon began
come true - his extrasensory abilities began to wake up.
When he completely recovered from his illness, his good friend fell seriously ill.

For two weeks each stood firmly on his feet.
living magnet
There are 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. Particularly strong magnetism
showed up in the morning. Frank had to move very fast,
non-stop, because his body was stuck to the ground, if he stopped at
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 Erica Zur Strinberg discovered
the magnetic abilities of your body after watching a TV show,
in which they talked about the magnetism of a Russian woman, Natalia Petrasova.
For the sake of interest, the German woman put a spoon to her chest and it “stuck” to
woman. Then Erica was hung up on most of the cutlery to
ascertain the presence of an unusual ability.
Unusual abilities yet to be unraveled
Many scientists agree that this kind of ability
potentially inherent in every person, but they manifest themselves only in
extreme situations or after severe life shocks. An example
This hypothesis is served by the soothsayer Vanga, who, having lost her sight
acquired 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
his unusual abilities after having been for a long time in
able clinical death. It happened when Messing was
eleven years.
There are many cases when people coming out of clinical death,
acquired the ability to read minds, to speak in previously unknown
or even dead languages. An amazing incident happened to
polar explorer Grigory Popov. Aircraft repair,
Grigory heard some rustle behind him, turning around, he saw
polar bear- one of the most dangerous predators. The pilot did not
understand nothing, as he was already at a two-meter height - on the wing

Unusual abilities of the human body always attracted the attention of both ordinary people and scientists. Periodically, the media mentions people endowed with unusual abilities, which is very problematic for modern scientists to find an explanation for. Along with, there are quite a few people with unusual abilities that fate has endowed them with. But who are they? Why, and most importantly why do they own their abilities?
At first glance, they are indistinguishable from other ordinary people, but this is far from the case. Some of them are so hardy that they are able to physically torture themselves for several months, some of them are able to live side by side with the most dangerous wild animals, for example poisonous snakes. Still others do not sleep for years and, contrary to the laws of nature, do not grow old.
For example, a woman named Hanuma living in Africa received nickname "diamond" his unusual ability to cry diamonds. Since childhood, Khanuma did not cry. The first time it happened at the age of nine, when the girl was peeling onions for the first time. What was the surprise of the girl's parents when her eyes began to fall hard crystals instead of tears. The girl's dad was a jeweler and, having subjected small crystals, he easily determined that they were real diamonds. The parents decided to keep it a secret unusual abilities Khanum and dad used their daughter's crystals to make jewelry, which was in great demand. One of the clients suspected something was wrong and handed over the diamond for examination, as a result of which it turned out that the stone was of organic origin. The girl became famous all over the world. But scientists have not been able to solve the mystery of diamond tears so far.
Wim Hof, a resident of Holland, is not sensitive to any cold. Thanks to his unusual abilities, the Dutchman conquered mountain peaks in only his underwear, swam for a long time in icy water and performed many such feats. Doctors conducted examinations of the body of an amazing person, but the results of the studies did not show any deviations from the norm in Wim's body after cold procedures. The Dutchman's unusual abilities allow him to feel comfortable in those conditions that would be fatal for any other person.
A kid named Ret Lamba, who is three years old, still never slept in my life. He is awake around the clock. Ret's parents, of course, are not enthusiastic about their son's abilities, but most of all they were worried about the child's health. However, as repeated medical examinations have shown, the lack of sleep does not affect Ret's health in any way, the boy is absolutely healthy. Recent studies have clarified the picture a little. It turned out that the brain and nervous system of an amazing child are arranged in a special way, thanks to which the boy does not need sleep, his brain rests while awake.

Does every person have some hidden abilities or only exceptional individuals have them? Why were these abilities given to them, do these people have any purpose from above? modern science is not able to give answers to the questions posed, since they lie in a plane that is not yet included in the scope of serious scientific research.
Despite the uniqueness of each person, in terms of anatomy and physiology, we are all similar. That is why people with unusual abilities or external characteristics are always of great interest. There are few such individuals, and in most cases these phenomena are carefully hidden from the public for their own good. This material contains real facts about the most unusual people that have received wide publicity.
In May 1934, a sensational event took place, which was called the "luminous woman from Pirano." Messages about this moved from the pages of medical publications to newspapers around the world. Signora Anna Monaro suffered from asthma, and for several weeks during her sleep, a blue light emanated from her chest. Many doctors have observed this phenomenon, which lasted intermittently for several seconds each time.
One psychiatrist suggested that "the phenomenon is caused by electrical and magnetic organisms which have developed sufficiently strongly in this woman's body to give off a radiance" (in other words, another way of saying "I don't know").
Another doctor, talking about firefly people with unusual abilities, proposed the theory of electromagnetic radiation, associating it with certain chemical components in the patient's skin, which was close to the then fashionable theory of bioluminescence. Dr. Protti, who made a lengthy statement regarding his observations of Signora Monaro, suggested that her poor health, together with starvation and piety, increased the amount of sulfides in the blood. Human blood emits rays in the ultraviolet range, and sulfides can be made to luminesce with ultraviolet radiation - this explains the radiance emanating from Signora Monaro's chest.
The proposed theory about people with such unusual abilities did not explain the strange periodicity or localization of bluish flashes, and soon the confused researchers finally fell silent. Harvey talked about luminous bacteria that feed on human sweat, but according to Protty, Anna Monaro began to sweat profusely only after her chest emitted a radiance, and just at that moment her heart began to beat twice as fast as usual. Many textbooks and scientific papers toxicology describes wounds emitting radiance. This is usually explained by the presence of luminescent bacteria or secretions in wounds, which contain the biochemical substances luciferin and luciferase, as well as ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which, as a rule, do not combine, and if they are combined, they begin to emit light. A similar process occurs with the glow of fireflies and fire flies. However, if these theories could be applied to the case of Signora Monaro, then her whole body would have to glow.
In Death: Its Causes and Related Phenomena, Hareward Carrington tells of a child who died of acute indigestion. When the neighbors were preparing a shroud for him, they noticed that the boy's body emits a bluish glow and heat spreads from him. It felt like it was on fire. Attempts to extinguish this radiance did not lead to anything, but after a while it stopped by itself. When they moved the body, they found that the sheet under it was burned.
In the medical literature, cases of the unusual ability of a person to glow are usually associated with pathology. For example, in the monumental monograph "Anomalies and Curiosities in Medicine" (1937), they talk about a woman who suffered from breast cancer: the light emanating from the damaged area of \u200b\u200bthe breast was sufficient to see the dial of a watch several feet away.
The only case in the world when unusual people "emit light" being practically healthy (not counting, of course, saints) is described in the journal "The English Mechanic" dated September 24, 1869. One American, going to bed, discovered a glow in the upper part of the fourth finger of her right legs. When she rubbed her leg, the glow increased and some unknown force pushed her fingers apart. The stench came from the foot. Light emission and smell did not stop even when the leg was immersed in a basin of water. Not even soap could extinguish or reduce the glow. This phenomenon lasted three quarters of an hour, and the husband of this woman watched him.
Perhaps these are the most unusual people on the planet, since such phenomena are quite rare, while they have absolutely no explanation.
One of the very first cases of study by scientists of very unusual people, refers to 1846. We are talking about the so-called "electric" people. On January 15, Angelique Cotin from La Perriere (France), who turned 14 that day, experienced a strange condition that then lasted 10 weeks. As soon as she got close to the objects, they immediately began to bounce off her. The lightest touch of her hand or her dress was enough to make even the heaviest furniture start spinning and jumping around the room. It was absolutely impossible to hold something if Angelica was holding it too: the object immediately began to twitch and slip out of her hands.
The French Academy of Sciences appointed a special research group to study this one of the most unusual abilities of people, one of whose members was the famous physicist of the time, Francois Arago. In the February issue of the Journal de Deba for 1846, his report on the investigation was published. According to the scientist, the power possessed by the girl is akin to electromagnetism (in her presence, for example, the compass needle began the real “St. Witt’s dance”); it usually increased in the evenings and seemed to be concentrated on the left side of Angelica's body, more precisely, in her left wrist and elbow. The poor thing would sometimes convulse when this power was especially active; while her heart rate was 120 beats per minute. She herself was so frightened of what was happening that she often ran away from home headlong.
Probably the most famous example such the most unusual people in the world was the case of Lulu Hurst, who even demonstrated her extraordinary abilities in front of the public. In 1883-1885. she acted like a "wonder from Georgia" until she retired from the stage by marrying her entrepreneur.
She, as expected, in the classic version with "evil spirits", began to feel her abilities in herself after 14 years. Porcelain cups were beating in her presence, and at night in the bedroom where she was, incomprehensible knocks on the door and heavy blows began to be heard, which frightened her to death younger sister with whom they slept together. The day after the strange noises began, Lulu handed over a chair to one of her relatives, which at the same time began to spin in her hands, clearly not wanting to move to a new owner. The four men could not pull it over, eventually the chair broke into pieces and all four fell to the floor.
Relatives persuaded the girl to turn her illness into art. The number with which she performed was that Lulu had to demonstrate her superiority over several adult men. Let's say a girl held one end of a billiard cue, and two strong men tried with all their might to no avail to snatch the cue from her hands, bend it to the ground, etc. She lifted three men sitting on each other's knees in a chair, with a simple touch of the palms on his back, lightly touched a heavy object - and he moved away, although before that five strong men could not move him. Edwards described such unusual abilities of people in his book " Weird people"(1961). He wrote about Lulu that, according to the testimony of many contemporaries, she let in any "checkers" who could make sure that she did her numbers without any tension, without resorting to tricks and tricks.
These photos show unusual people on the planet who have non-standard appearance and abilities:
It is unlikely that anyone in their right mind would risk walking barefoot through a pit filled with burning coals or red-hot stones. It can be assumed that people demonstrating this are in some special state. No one has yet explained how, while walking through the fire, they manage to perform this incredible trick without any damage to themselves.
One of the first experiments with walking on fire was organized in September 1935 in Carshalton, Surrey, at the initiative of the University of London. The experiment involved a young Muslim man from India, Kuda Bax, who walked through a 20-foot-wide coal pit four times without being burned.
In all parts of the world, immunity to fire is achieved by a wide variety of methods. Apparently Indians (whether in India, Sri Lanka or Fiji) essential element ritual is a state of trance or religious ecstasy. However, Kuda Bax and many others showed their immunity to fire while in a completely normal state. However, some require complex preparation, which includes singing, dancing, and sexual abstinence, while others may walk on coals with no preparation at all or after a simple symbolic ritual.
As you can see in the photo, such unusual people do not receive any damage by walking on hot coals:
E. D. Dinguall's book, Amazing Cases of People (1947), details a certain Marie Saune who lived in Paris in the 1950s. 18th century This woman, who suffered from the attacks of St. Medara, was nicknamed "fireproof". Wrapped in a sheet, she could lie over the fire for a long time, leaning her head and legs on the chairs. She could put her feet in stockings and shoes into a brazier with coals and keep them there until the stockings burned to the ground. In this regard, the question arises, why did the stockings and shoes burn down, but not the sheet? By the way, this is not the only such example. In the book "Secrets of Science and Miracles" M. F. Long cited the story of D. G. Hill about a walk on hot stones on one of the islands of the Tahiti archipelago with the participation of a certain European. Although the pit was so hot that the skin on his face was peeling off, his leather boots were completely undamaged by the fire.
What happens while walking on fire? Most likely, the walker is in an exalted state, in which pain suppressed, as, for example, during hypnosis sessions. However, in some cases, participants do without trance or ecstasy. At the same time, there is no evidence that damaged tissues heal so quickly that no traces remain at all (a similar phenomenon is sometimes observed among dervishes, residents of Bali and other "initiates" who know the art of piercing their bodies).
The author found the most daring explanation for such an unusual deviation in people in the work of D. Pierce "Crack in the Cosmic Egg", devoted to the issue of different degrees of perception of "reality". Pierce believes that walking on coals is a classic example of the creation of some new reality (albeit only temporary and on a local scale), in which the fire does not burn as usual. Everything goes well as long as this reality persists, but in the history of walking on fire there are cases of monstrous victims and terrible injuries of those whose faith suddenly broke, and they again found themselves in that world where the fire burns. The magical state in which a person becomes immune to fire appears to be created by the person directing the fire-walking ceremony.
Probably only spiritual or psychological reasons it is impossible to explain the ability to walk on fire, and here we are talking about a certain physical phenomenon which is not yet understood and has not found its explanation.
How else can one explain the fact that in Bulgaria tourists are still taken to one of the villages, where every evening the locals walk on hot coals.
Here you can watch a video of unusual people immune to fire:
One of the most unusual people on earth is the so-called "boiling people." When scientists from Lima, having climbed very high in the mountains, met Augusto Moravira, they were terribly surprised, says Echo of the Planet. The fact is that the snow, falling on the body of an Indian, instantly melted, flowing down in jets. And the mountaineer's handshake was incredibly hot and humid.
When Augusto's body temperature was taken, the thermometer went off scale. And a special laboratory thermometer, which measured the temperature of this person, showed 43.5 ° C.
However, the phenomenon of people with such abnormal deviations is explained quite simply. According to scientists, normal heat body is due to increased blood pressure, and it, in turn, depends on the high-mountain atmospheric pressure. However, after living for some time in Lima, Augusto lowered his body temperature to 37 ° C at a pressure of 120/80. At the same time, he began to freeze even on fine days. But he is not going to return to the mountains. It's nice to feel at the center of a sensation.
Jozef Povollo-Rzeszowski's parents moved from Poland to Sweden when he was only two years old. At first, the father and mother did not notice any abnormalities in the child. But one day, four-year-old Jozef recounted to his mother a conversation between two people who were a little more than a kilometer away. Of course, Jadwiga did not believe her son. And he actually had super-acute, simply supernatural hearing: the boy freely picked up human speech, sounding one and a half kilometers away.
After some time, he began to amaze others with another unusual ability - super-sharp vision, thanks to which he could freely read a newspaper text at a distance of 1 km.
And cases of such unusual possibilities in humans are far from isolated.
The most famous people with an unusual appearance are considered a child with a dog's face and a tower woman with a gigantic stature.
When puppy whining was heard in the delivery room of a Toronto (Canada) clinic, the doctors who delivered the babies were shocked.
Linda and Derrida Jemisson were a wonderful couple, but they lacked a child to be completely happy. The specialists could not help them in any way, and the couple had to turn to the services of a sperm bank. No one can now tell how Linda was impregnated with dog sperm. The course of pregnancy was monitored by doctors, and if they had timely established which fetus develops in the womb, the state of emergency could have been avoided. But a man was born with an unusual appearance by nature: the body of the child was human, and the face was dog. And he burst into puppy barking.
In means mass media often talk about people who can do incredible things. Tissue regeneration, weather control and levitation - is there something impossible? Of course, many abilities are fiction of a science fiction writer, but it's 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 a person. What are the superpowers of people today?
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, you need to use another skill - clairvoyance. People with superpowers in these areas can model the likelihood of actions and living them 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 cognition, the mind opens up, and thinking becomes multifaceted, and not linear, as in ordinary people.
There are superpowers in people who are unusually sensitive to all types of energy. This phenomenon is called extrasensory perception. The owner of this skill sees auras, chakras, feels disturbances at the energy level. The psychic is able to cure the detected changes, but only with the help of words.
The famous Wim Hof, nicknamed "The Ice Man", developed the ability to control the autonomic functions of the body all his life. Thanks to the use of special techniques and meditations, he became a world record holder in many categories. For example, he spent several hours in an ice bath without consequences for the body, climbed Mount Everest in just 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 autonomic processes to accelerate. But this is not the only case of insensitivity to aggressive environmental factors. Ordinary people, without any training, also survived after being exposed to cold. So, the pilot Yuri Kozlovsky made an ejection in the winter. When he fell, he received an open fracture of both legs, but he was able to survive in the tundra, spending three days there.
And here is the opposite example of human superpowers. African American Willie Jones, having received heat stroke at an air temperature of 32.2 degrees, was able to survive. Although his body warmed up to 46.5 degrees, and he was already 52 years old. An unusual “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 two hours by putting it in his mouth. The results of scientific experiments have shown that maximum temperature that a person can contact is 841 degrees Celsius. It is to this magnitude that coals and stones are heated, on which ritual dances and barefoot walks are performed.
No less famous are the superpowers of people in memorizing a lot of material, pictures of the world around them. For example, in 1974 in Burma, Bhandanta Visichara recited 16,000 pages of Buddhist texts by heart. Gu Yang Lin from China was able to memorize 15,000 phone numbers in the city of Harbin, and Barbara Moore from America sang 1,852 songs in 19 days. In 1990, the Guinness Book of Records included in its list Samvel Gharibyan from Yerevan, who memorized 960 out of 1000 unfamiliar words dictated to him the first time.
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 the picture he saw on canvas in every detail. Kim Peak, who suffers from the Opitz-Kaveggia syndrome, could read two pages of a book at the same time, and even several years later, retell them exactly.
There are people in the world with superpowers who are able to taste the most vividly and intensely. They are called supertasters. The reason for this phenomenon is a large number of special papillae on the tongue. Oddly enough, this ability is most inherent in women from Asia and Africa. Usually, people with superpowers of this type refuse to eat food containing bitterness, since for them this is the most palpable taste.
A person who has absolute pitch is able to reproduce a sound without mentioning it, to name the notes of a chord, to recognize the pitch of everyday sounds. To have such a skill, it is necessary to classify sounds into categories in your mind. According to research conducted in this issue, we can conclude that absolute pitch is most common in the sound language environment and with a pitch accent. These regions include Japan, Vietnam, 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 areas, 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 already in the form of color blindness.
The superpowers of people are especially pronounced as a result of any violations. So, for orientation in space, blind individuals can recreate the sound, and determine the location of objects by echo. You can produce sound by clicking your tongue or tapping 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 make up for it by clicking his tongue. As an adult, he taught about 500 children his way of knowing the world. Studies using magnetic resonance imaging have shown that the brains of people who have learned echolocation have undergone a number of changes. Thus, the visual cortex adapts to the processing of echoes, the distance and direction of sound waves. This development of human superpower allows you to move long distances in any conditions.
Human superpowers may seem incredible at first glance, but they are easily explained scientifically. Chimerism is extremely rare and is due to the fusion of two fertilized eggs at an early stage of pregnancy. In such intercourse, each population of cells retains its genetic character, and the resulting embryo becomes a mixture of two parental DNA. 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 change on the planet in the future.
Superpowers of people can manifest themselves in the association of letters, numbers, words with certain colors and tastes. The phenomenon is explained by the stimulation of certain sensory or cognitive channels, which leads to an involuntary response of other channels. Synesthesia most often manifests itself in a 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. Among famous people with this phenomenon were Vladimir Nabokov, Nikola Tesla and others.
Often on TV you can see that a person can almost instantly multiply huge numbers in his mind. Conducted studies in this area have made it possible to put forward the assumption 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. The woman, in front of the eyes of the commission, multiplied two thirteen-digit numbers, taken at random, in 28 seconds. And Alexander Nekrasov from Lipetsk in 61 seconds was able to extract the thousandth root of a number consisting of 547 digits. 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.
Gino Martino is the owner of super strength. A professional wrestler could easily break hard objects with his head, such as iron bars, concrete blocks. The skull of Gino Martino even withstood the impact of a bowling ball that was thrown from a height of five meters.
Masutatsu Oyama was distinguished by incredible strength. He was a martial artist that no one could beat. In addition to his invincibility in battles, Masutatsu Oyama became famous for knocking down an angry bull with one blow.
Buddhist monks have always been distinguished by skills beyond the control of ordinary people. So, 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 easily dried clay or brought water to a boil. He was also distinguished by his ability to heal seriously ill patients, including those suffering from cancer, by simple touches.
There was a man in France who could eat anything. His name was Michel Lotito. Between 1959 and 1997, he ate about nine tons of metal, in the form of televisions, bicycles, shopping carts, a coffin, an airplane, part of the Eiffel Tower. Such a phenomenon scientific world calls "picacism" or an eating disorder, expressed in an extraordinary craving for inedible things.
Do people have superpowers that allow them to recognize a disease in a person at a glance? It turns out there is. At the age of 10, a girl named Natasha Demkina discovered her gift - to see through the skin of a person. Numerous studies have confirmed its ability. People began to come to her to establish a diagnosis. Natalia was nicknamed "The Girl with the X-Ray Eyes" and even the Discovery Channel released documentary about her superpowers.
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, to feel the freedom of movement. Scotsman Daniel Hume made this dream come true. Witnesses confirm the fact that he was off the ground and could hang under the ceiling. In 1867, a psychic and spiritualist, in front of numerous spectators, flew out of a third floor window and returned back. D. Hume's speeches were attended by famous people(Napoleon Bonaparte), researchers, scientists, but no one could catch him in a lie. Another amazing and inexplicable ability was possessed by Nelly Kulagina. She could separate the yolk from the white without touching the egg, and she could also stop the hearts of animals. Scientists during the experiments could only record her rapid heartbeat, reaching up to 250 beats.
Fantasy films tell us about heroes who can set objects 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 had such a gift, but, unfortunately, she never managed to control her ability. She spent the end of her life in the hospital with a nervous breakdown.
Incredible skills can appear from birth and cannot be explained. 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 feelings, autism.
How can you develop your abilities? In fact, there are a lot of techniques, starting with breathing exercises and meditations, and ending with hypnosis. Some organizations even invite you to the "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 compliance with healthy lifestyle life. The spirit must also be healthy. Give vent to negative emotions at the right time. physical activities explaining the reasons why they were called. Training should be subjected to regularly, without succumbing to laziness. It must be remembered that the stronger a person becomes, the greater his responsibility to the world.
Some believe that a person uses his potential by no more than 10%. Moreover, this applies to both the brain and the body. In this article we will tell you about the incredible human abilities.
