We all know superheroes from films and comics - for example, Thor can control the weather, Wolverine has an adamantium skeleton, Spider-Man has the ability to stay on steep surfaces and release cobwebs.
But there are people who truly have superpowers - for some of them they have become a real gift from above, while others are out of luck. In any case, superheroes are not only in films. Can we really do much more ?!
10. Claudio Pinto - Ant Man
Unlike the superhero of Spider-Man, Claudio Pinto does not hang on buildings and does not try to cleanse the world from crime. But he does something else ...
He pulls his eyes out of his orbits so that they reach 4 cm outside! This is 95% of the eyeballs. For his unusual ability, he is called the Dragonfly Man.
It’s unlikely that any benefit can be made from this ability, but to frighten someone or make an impression is quite! The ability to goggle allowed Pinto to earn good money - he does it at performances.
9. Tim Creedland - Man of Darkness
Many people would like to have such superpower, not realizing that living with her is very difficult. Analgesia is a disease that is scary to live with, because without an indicator of danger, all life becomes dangerous.
Tim Cridland does not feel pain. From childhood, he surprised his classmates with the ability to pierce their hands with needles or torture them with fire. By the way, this is what he was called the “King of Torture”.
Kridland decided that he could make good money on his ability, so he carefully studied anatomy to avoid harming himself in order to show interesting tricks to an interested audience.
8. Daniel Tammet - Brainiac
Brainiac is a comic book supervillain, and Tammet is a living person. Usually, superheroes have abilities to discover because of some kind of drama, and so does Daniel Tammet.
In childhood, the boy suffered a serious attack of epilepsy, after which his brain underwent changes. As early as 4 years old, Daniel could perform complex mathematical problems in his mind (which almost no one can do!)
For example, it costs nothing to divide 13 by 97 and determine one hundred characters following the decimal point. He knows many languages, for example, in just a week he learned Icelandic ... And it was just as an experiment.
7. Wim Hof - Ice Man
The Dutchman Wim Hove has an amazing ability to tolerate very low temperatures. According to Wim, from the age of 17 he wanted to conduct experiments with his body - he saw a small lake covered with ice, and something attracted him to him ...
The guy wanted to plunge. He did it, but flew out scalded. The survivor was so fascinated by him that every day he began to swim in ice water. He believes that, being a long time in the cold, immunity becomes stronger.
Hof has more than 20 records for survival in ice conditions: he ran in the snow (of course barefoot), plunged into cold waters, etc. The man developed his own method to achieve health and longevity.
6. Daniel Browning Smith - Mr. Fantastic
Actor and producer Daniel Browning Smith does what is hard to imagine! But I want to know his secret. Daniel Browning Smith can easily crawl into small holes for a cat, or completely fit in a small bedside table.
The guy with his ability resembles Mr. Fantastic - that superhero from the comics has the ability to take any form: stretch his body, stretch, squeeze it, etc. Smith has 7 records in the Guinness Book!
5. Lew Tou Lin - Magneto
Lew Tou Lin has an unusual ability - he attracts scrap metal. This ability is surprised not only by ordinary people, but also by doctors. They cannot explain how a man does this!
Various metal objects stick to it - spoons, forks, ax and even bricks! After careful research, one professor made the following conclusion: a man’s skin has “suction” properties, which allows objects not to fall. Interestingly, his sons and grandchildren possess the same abilities.
4. Ben Underwood - Daredevil
What the human brain cannot do! The American Ben Underwund, who had not yet had time to be born, was diagnosed with retinoblastoma (in another way - eyeball cancer).
Despite all the efforts of highly qualified doctors, the boy was unable to regain his vision. In this world, he needed to somehow learn to live without him, so his mother said that there are other feelings that should teach him to “see”.
It seems that Ben understood his mother’s words literally - growing up, he didn’t refuse to play with friends, did the same as his peers, and even began to play computer games!
It turned out that the young man managed to amazingly develop sonar vision (such in bats and dolphins). The guy’s brain has learned to translate the sounds coming to him into visual information.
3. Masutatsu Oyama - Batman
Masutatsu Oyama was nicknamed Batman because of his physical characteristics. He became known only for karate! The man is known as a professional master and karate teacher.
By the way, the famous Kekushinkai came up with Oyama (the most difficult and cruel kind of karate). During his career, Masutatsu Oyama managed to defeat a large number of bulls in the arena: 48 of them lost their horns, because the man chopped them off with one blow of his hand and killed three.
2. Michel Lotito - Tony Stark
Of course, Lotito is different from Tony Stark. The similarity lies only in the fact that a man can be called the “iron man” without hesitation.
Michel Lotito gained his fame for eating the Cessna-150. It took him 2 years.
Michel Lotito lived for 57 years, and over his life he had eaten more than 9 tons of metal products. Doctors who examined the body of a mysterious man concluded that his body was accustomed to exotic foods.
1. Joe Rollino - The Hulk
Joe Rollino weighed 68 kg and was only 165 cm tall. He was first nicknamed the Hulk (a superhero with incredible physical strength) when he was able to take 1452 kg from the ground.
He went through the war, was engaged in athleticism, also boxing and became the first strongman (power sport) in history. With just one finger, he could hold 290 kg.
Rollino lived to 104 years, he never had bad habits and was a vegetarian. Perhaps he would have lived more if it had not been for the accident - two months before his birthday he was hit by a car.
