Real-life Superheroes: 10 People with
Incredible Abilities. Awesome Information
With so many superhero movies around, such as Spiderman or Hulk,
we are used to see people with special abilities in fiction.
But people with amazing abilities actually do exist in real life;
here's a list of 10 of the most amazing of these people!
 The Incredible Brain Daniel Tammet):
Daniel Paul Tammet is a British high-functioning autistic savant
gifted with a facility for mathematical calculations, sequence memory,
and natural language learning. He was born with congenital
childhood epilepsy Experiencing numbers as colors or
sensations is a well-documented form of synesthesia,
but the detail and specificity of Tammet's mental imagery of
numbers is unique. In his mind, he says, each number up to 10,000
has its own unique shape and feel, that he can "see" results
of calculations as landscapes, and that he can "sense"
whether a number is prime or composite. He has described his
visual image of 289 as particularly ugly, 333 as
particularly attractive, and pi as beautiful. Tammet not only verbally
describes these visions, but also creates artwork,
particularly watercolor paintings, such as his painting of Pi.
Tammet holds the European record for memorising and recounting pi
to 22,514 digits in just over five hours. He also speaks a variety
of Languages including English, French, Finnish, German, Spanish,
Lithuanian, Romanian, Estonian, Icelandic, Welsh and Esperanto.
He particularly likes Estonian, because it is rich in vowels.
Tammet is creating a new language called Mnti. Tammet is capable of
learning new languages very quickly. To prove this for the Channel
Five documentary, Tammet was challenged to learn Icelandic in one week.
Seven days later he appeared on Icelandic television conversing
in Icelandic, with his Icelandic language instructor
saying it was "not human."

lives a quite normal life. He taught himself to use echo location
to navigate around the world. With no guide-dogs, he doesn't
even need hands: he uses sound. Ben makes a short click sound that
bounces back from objects. Amazingly, his ears pick up
the ecos to let him know where the objects are. He's the only person
in the world who sees using nothing but eco location, like
a sonar or a dolphin.

 Mister Eat-it-All (Michel Lotito):
Michel Lotito (born 1950) is a French entertainer, famous as the
consumer of undigestables, and is known as Monsieur Mangetout
(Mister Eat-it-all).
Lotito's performances are the consumption of metal, glass, rubber
and so on in items such as bicycles, televisions, a Cessna 150,
and smaller items which are disassembled, cut-up and swallowed.
The aircraft took roughly two years to be 'eaten' from 1978 to 1980.
He began eating unusual material while a child and has been
performing publicly since 1966. Lotito does not often suffer from
ill-effects due to his diet, even after the consumption of materials
usually considered poisonous. When performing he consumes
around a kilogram of material daily, preceding it with mineral oil
and drinking considerable quantities of water during the 'meal'.
He apparently possesses a stomach and intestine with walls
of twice the expected thickness, and his digestive acids are,
allegedly, unusually powerful, allowing him to digest a certain
portion of his metallic meals.

 The Magnetic Man (Liew Thow Lin):
Liew Thow Lin, a 70-year-old retired contractor in Malaysia, recently
made news for pulling a car twenty meters along a level surface
by means of an iron chain hooked to an iron plate on his midriff.
He says that he discovered he had the amazing ability to make objects
stick "magnetically" to his skin, and now he's added car-pulling to
his repertoire. After reading an article about a family in Taiwan
who possessed such power, he says he took several iron objects and
put them on his abdomen, and to his surprise, all the objects
including an iron, stuck on his skin and didn't fall down.
Since this "gift'' is also present in three of his sons and
two grandchildren, he figures it's hereditary.
 The Man who doesn't Sleep (Thai Ngoc):
Sixty-four-year-old Thai Ngoc, known as Hai Ngoc, said he could
not sleep at night after getting a fever in 1973, and has
counted infinite numbers of sheep during more than 11,700
consecutive sleepless nights. "I don't know whether the insomnia
has impacted my health or not. But I'm still healthy and can farm
normally like others," Ngoc said. Proving his health, the elderly
resident of Que Trung commune, Que Son district said he can carry
two 50kg bags of fertilizer down 4km of road to return home
every day. His wife said, "My husband used to sleep well, but
these days, even liquor cannot put him down." She said when Ngoc
went to Da Nang for a medical examination, doctors gave him a clean
bill of health, except a minor decline in liver function. Ngoc currently
lives on his 5ha farm at the foot of a mountain busy with
farming and taking care of pigs and chickens all day. His six
children live at their house in Que Trung. Ngoc often does extra farm work
or guards his farm at night to prevent theft, saying he used
three months of sleepless nights to dig two large ponds to raise fish.
 The Torture King (Tim Cridland):
Tim Cridland doesn't seem to feel pain like the rest of people.
He astounded everyone by pushing needles into his arms without
flinching and he now performs a terrifying act for audiences
all over America. Scientific tests have shown that Tim can tolerate
much higher levels of pain than are humanly possible. He explains
that, by using mind over matter , he is able to push skewers
through his body and put up with extreme heat and cold unharmed
- but to do this safely he has extensively studied human anatomy,
because puncturing an artery could be fatal.
 The Lion Whisperer(Kevin Richardson)
Animal behaviourist Kevin Richardson says he relies on instinct to win
the hearts and form an intimate bond with the big cats. He can spend
the night curled up with them without the slightest fear of being attacked.
His magic works not only work for lions but other animals such as cheetahs,
leopards and even hyenas do not hold a threat against him.
Lions are his favourites and its a wonder how he can play, carress,
cuddle with them whose teeth are sharp enough to bite through
thick steel. Its a dangerous job but to Kevin, its more of a passion
for him.

 The Eye-Popping Man (Claudio Pinto)
Claudio Pinto can pop both of his eyes 4 cm (about 1 and a half inch)
or 95% out of their sockets. He's now aiming (poppin'?) for a world record.
Mr Pinto has undergone various tests and doctors say they have never
seen or heard of a person who can pop the eyes as much as him.
Mr Pinto, from Belo Horizonte, said: "It is a pretty easy way to make money.
"I can pop my eyes out four centimetres each, it is a gift from God,
I feel blessed."
