Human reserve capabilities: myth or reality (interview with the magazine “Self-Defense Without Weapons”). Human superpowers - transphysics - self-knowledge - catalog of articles - unconditional love

Man is an incomprehensible creature. It happens that he lives an average life, but then some event happens that greatly shakes him up, and everything changes. A person exhibits certain superpowers. Today, many examples have been recorded that show human capabilities that can manifest themselves in extreme conditions or in some congenital diseases. Of course, these abilities can be developed independently. We will talk about all this in this article.

What are human superpowers?

There are quite a few abilities that can be classified as “super”. Moreover, they are not available to most people. So, what can be classified into this category:

• Clairvoyance. This ability involves seeing what is impossible for the ordinary human eye.
• Telepathy. The ability to hear or see the thoughts of another person.
• Clairsentience. With the help of this ability, a person can read information from the general information field not only of our planet, but of the entire Universe. This also includes developed intuition.
• Clarity of smell. A person who has this ability can acutely sense all odors, and people can gain not only the ability acute sense of smell, but also perfect taste.
• Claircognizance. This ability is a bit like clairvoyance, but clairvoyance involves clear knowledge that simply pops into your head when you need it. Knowledge can absolutely anyone.
• Psychometry. An interesting ability that involves the ability to find out information about a person from a photograph or read it from any objects.
• Telekinesis. Using thoughts, moving any objects.

Of course, these are not all the superpowers that a person can have. Some can receive, others have phenomenal memory or the ability to perform complex calculations in their heads. Although some scientists do not consider these abilities impossible at all, because in their opinion, in the distant past, every person possessed them.

Ancient civilizations that have sunk into oblivion reached their heights thanks to special human capabilities. And now some part of our brain is simply sleeping and only through training can it be awakened and made to work at 100%.

Can a person develop superpowers?

You can continue further independent work and learn visualization. At this stage, you will be able to gain control over your senses, learn to sense the world not only through ordinary organs, but also through supersenses. Only after this can you begin to train a certain human superpower. There are quite a lot of exercises for raising potential, so you should choose the one that is most suitable for a beginner.

However, the most in a simple way will find an experienced teacher for yourself. He will be able to correctly reveal your abilities, and also protect your path from some mistakes that are possible if learning occurs on your own. He will also be able to see the negative programs that already exist on your subtle body and help you get rid of them (and this is important for further spiritual development).

It should be noted that many people had their superpowers suppressed in childhood by adults who simply did not know how to develop this child's gift. Today it is recommended to take a close look at the growing little man and contribute in every possible way to his development, since such abilities will help him become a full-fledged person in the future.

Extreme conditions and superpowers

There are many recorded cases of people developing superpowers after some tragic accident or under extreme conditions. After that, they either remain or disappear. For example, a case was recorded when a pilot, after an accident, was able to survive in the tundra with broken legs, and his body temperature dropped to 33.2 degrees.

There were also cases when a person survived after being hit by lightning, strong radiation, or, gaining greater strength, in a fight with a strong animal or element. It is believed that in such cases the human body and brain turn on at full capacity, thus performing previously impossible actions.

Many people who found themselves in a critical situation spoke afterwards about a certain slowdown or stretching of time, which made it possible to escape from danger. We can say that a person is quite capable of controlling the space-time continuum, but, unfortunately, he cannot do this consciously. Perhaps all of humanity will have to make a lot more effort to learn to control our body and capabilities.

Vivid examples of people with superpowers

In the history of past centuries, as well as in modern history, there are many references to people who had various phenomenal and extrasensory abilities. Perhaps the most famous is the ancient predictor Nostradamus, who described many events of modernity and the recent past, as well as the Bulgarian predictor Vanga.

There are quite a few “uniques” in the scientific community, for example, Academician Ioffe kept all the tables of logarithms in his memory. Sergei Garibyan, our contemporary, during a scientific experiment revealed that he has a phenomenal memory, as he remembered more than a thousand sentences in various languages ​​that he did not know at all.

As we see, human special abilities are not a myth at all, but something real. Of course, many ordinary people are skeptical about psychic abilities, but one cannot deny the fact that many people possess them and are also able to control them. For example, bioenergetics and psychics who are able to heal a person from physical and spiritual illnesses. It just takes a little persistence and desire to gain the ability, but not everyone has that.

Sixth planetary shell

Human behavior in different extreme situations can be different:

People experience fear, danger and confusion

They experience feelings of impasse and discomfort

They behave recklessly, apathetically, do not look for a way out of the current situation,

Others, on the contrary, are in a hurry to make a rash decision.

In an extreme situation, you need to concentrate, calm down, begin to analyze, evaluate and, if possible, control the situation. In these conditions, it is necessary to communicate constructively and positively with others, use relaxation techniques, and have an understanding of survival and safety.

In extreme conditions, a person must focus on studying the situation, on the specific situation in which he finds himself. You need to know that danger can come from anywhere, so it is difficult to predict. In the event of an unexpected turn of events, the main thing is not to get confused and to adequately perceive the event. Practice shows that in emergency situations a person temporarily experiences a state of confusion, when he does not perceive what he sees and hear, and his perception of the environment around him decreases.

However, a person quickly gets used to it and begins to perceive what is happening adequately. Later, a state of fatigue and overwork sets in. In these conditions, the level of anxiety should not be allowed to become unbearable, because this leads to breakdowns aggressive behavior against others and even against himself. A constant state of tension is dangerous for human health, because... quickly depletes his psycho-physiological capabilities and leads to errors in behavior.

An experienced person who has experienced or previously worked in crisis conditions feels better protected and experiences less stress. However, this phenomenon can not only be positive, but also carries with it Negative consequences, because A constant threat provokes nervous tension in the body.

It is very important to correctly navigate real and imaginary threats and learn to overcome fear.

In extreme conditions, a person develops a complex of reactions that mobilizes all psychophysiological potential. It is he who helps to find support, master oneself and cope with the situation, and sometimes accomplish what seems beyond human strength. Help always inspires trust and respect for a person. This might come in handy. One of the main tasks is to avoid injury. But if such a nuisance does happen to you, do not panic and do not rush to say goodbye to life.

Realize that the worst is behind you. You are alive and must survive. Keep in mind that, according to statistics, the majority of those who die from wounds are people who panicked. They die from fear, from shock, and not from the consequences of injury. Predicting the development of the situation in disaster zones is a dubious task. Anything can happen. Do not indulge in adventures involving penetration into the affected area. Don't play with death.

In case of accidents, catastrophes, natural disasters and other emergency situations, mass casualties of people can occur suddenly and simultaneously. A huge number of wounded and injured will need first aid. There simply are not enough professionals - nurses and doctors for each victim, and they cannot always arrive in the area of ​​disaster as quickly as the situation requires. That is why immediate assistance can only be provided by those who are close to the victim in the form of mutual aid, or by the victim himself, if he is capable, in the order of self-help.

Explosions during terrorist acts, fires, earthquakes, floods, landslides, transport accidents - all of them usually lead to numerous casualties. The role of timely and skillfully provided medical care is undeniable. Its main and main principle- warning and mitigation dangerous consequences. First medical aid is provided at the site of the injury, and its type is determined by the nature of the damage, the condition of the victim and the specific situation in the area emergency.

The problem of the state, behavior and activities of people in extreme situations

The problem of the state, behavior and activities of people in extreme situations with a vital threat in last years is of serious concern to scientists and practitioners around the world. However, until now, the main attention of researchers has been focused primarily on studying the consequences of such situations - medical-psychological, economic, socio-political, etc. It should probably be recognized that, despite the significant amount of sufficiently substantiated data on the impact of various extreme factors and features of the organization of rescue and anti-terrorism operations, a number of aspects of the problem, in particular, the dynamics of the condition and behavior of victims and hostages are among the least studied to date. At the same time, it is the specificity of the reactions of victims, as well as their dynamics over time, that largely determine the strategy and tactics of anti-terrorist operations, rescue, medical and medical-psychological measures, both directly during an emergency and subsequently.

Results of a study of people exposed to extreme factors during military, anti-terrorist operations and disasters

In the abstract we will consider the generalized results of studying the state, mental and behavioral reactions, as well as the activities of people exposed to extreme factors. These data were obtained by M.M. Reshetnikov in the process of research conducted during and after military operations accompanied by significant losses in Afghanistan (1986), an earthquake in Armenia (1988), the disaster of two passenger trains as a result of a gas explosion near Ufa (1989), and the rescue of the crew of the Komsomolets submarine ( 1989), as well as a survey of military personnel and rescuers undergoing rehabilitation after anti-terrorist operations and an analytical study of materials from other similar situations.

Due to the specific conditions and taking into account ethical principles, the examination involved mainly victims, military personnel and rescuers who either did not need emergency medical care or belonged to the category of victims with mild and moderate severity of injuries. Because of this, most of the data obtained were characterized by a certain fragmentation, and holistic ideas were formed by comparing disparate observations.

The data obtained made it possible to distinguish 6 successive stages in the dynamics of the condition of victims (without severe injuries):

1. “Vital reactions” - lasting from several seconds to 5 - 15 minutes, when behavior is almost completely subordinated to the imperative of preserving one’s own life, with a characteristic narrowing of consciousness, reduction of moral norms and restrictions, disturbances in the perception of time intervals and the strength of external and internal stimuli (including the phenomena of psychogenic hypo- and analgesia even with injuries accompanied by bone fractures, wounds and burns of 1-2 degrees up to 40% of the body surface). This period is characterized by the implementation of predominantly instinctive forms of behavior, which subsequently transform into a short-term (nevertheless with very wide variability) state of numbness. The duration and severity of vital reactions largely depends on the suddenness of the impact of an extreme factor. For example, during sudden powerful tremors, as during an earthquake in Armenia, or a train crash near Ufa at night, when most passengers were sleeping, there were cases when, realizing the instinct of self-preservation, people jumped out of the windows of swaying houses or burning cars, onto some seconds “forgetting” about your loved ones. But, if they did not receive significant damage, after a few seconds social regulation was restored, and they again threw themselves into collapsing buildings or flaming carriages. If it was not possible to save loved ones, this determined the course of all subsequent stages, the specifics of the condition and the prognosis of psychopathology for a very long period. Subsequent attempts to rationally dissuade people from the fact that instinctive forms of behavior cannot be resisted or resisted turned out to be ineffective. Appealing to the latest tragic events, it should be recognized that, in part, a similar situation was observed after the sudden explosion of a mine and the start of the mass execution of hostages.

2. “The stage of acute psycho-emotional shock with phenomena of overmobilization.” This stage, as a rule, developed following a short-term state of numbness, lasted from 3 to 5 hours and was characterized by general mental stress, extreme mobilization of psychophysiological reserves, heightened perception and increased speed of thought processes, manifestations of reckless courage (especially when saving loved ones) with a simultaneous decrease critical assessment of the situation, but maintaining the ability to carry out purposeful activities. The emotional state during this period was dominated by a feeling of despair, accompanied by feelings of dizziness and headache, as well as palpitations, dry mouth, thirst and difficulty breathing. Behavior during this period is subordinated almost exclusively to the imperative of saving loved ones with the subsequent implementation of ideas about morality, professional and official duty. Despite the presence of rational components, it is during this period that panic reactions are most likely to manifest and infect others with them, which can significantly complicate rescue operations. Up to 30% of those examined, with a subjective assessment of the deterioration of their condition, simultaneously noted an increase in physical strength and performance by 1.5–2 times or more. The end of this stage can be either prolonged, with the gradual appearance of a feeling of exhaustion, or it can occur suddenly, instantly, when the active people found themselves in a state close to stupor or fainting, regardless of the situation.

3. “Stage of psychophysiological demobilization” - its duration is up to three days. In the vast majority of cases, the onset of this stage was associated with an understanding of the scale of the tragedy (“stress of awareness”) and contacts with those seriously injured and the bodies of the dead, as well as the arrival of rescue and medical teams. The most characteristic of this period were a sharp deterioration in well-being and psycho-emotional state with a predominance of a feeling of confusion (up to a state of a kind of prostration), individual panic reactions (often of an irrational nature, but realized without any energy potential), a decrease in moral normative behavior, refusal from any activity and motivation for it. At the same time, pronounced depressive tendencies and disturbances in the function of attention and memory were observed (as a rule, those examined cannot at all clearly remember what they were doing at that time, but, naturally, these gaps are then “filled”). The leading complaints during this period were nausea, “heaviness” in the head, discomfort in the gastrointestinal tract, lack of appetite, severe weakness, slowness and difficulty breathing, and tremors of the extremities.

4. The subsequent dynamics of the condition and well-being of the victims is largely determined by the specifics of the impact of extreme factors, the injuries received and the moral and psychological situation after the tragic events. Following the “psychophysiological demobilization” (with relatively high individual variability in terms), the development of the 4th stage, the “resolution stage” (from 3 to 12 days), was observed with sufficient consistency. During this period, according to subjective assessment, mood and well-being gradually stabilized. However, according to the results of objective data and participant observation, the vast majority of those examined retained a reduced emotional background, limited contact with others, hypomimia (mask-like appearance), decreased intonation coloring of speech, slowness of movements, sleep and appetite disturbances, as well as various psychosomatic reactions (mainly from the cardiovascular system, gastrointestinal tract and hormonal sphere). By the end of this period, the majority of the victims had a desire to “speak out,” which was implemented selectively, aimed primarily at persons who were not eyewitnesses of the tragic events, and was accompanied by some agitation. This phenomenon, which is part of the system of natural psychological defense mechanisms (“rejection of memories through their verbalization”), in a number of cases brought significant relief to the victims. At the same time, dreams that were absent in previous periods were restored, including those with disturbing and nightmare content, in various options transformed the impressions of tragic events.

Against the background of subjective signs of some improvement in the condition, a further decrease in psychophysiological reserves (by the type of hyperactivation) was objectively noted, the phenomena of overwork progressively increased, and indicators of physical and mental performance decreased significantly.

5. The “restoration stage” of the psychophysiological state (5th) began mainly at the end of the second week after exposure to the extreme factor and was initially most clearly manifested in behavioral reactions: interpersonal communication intensified, the emotional coloring of speech and facial reactions began to normalize, jokes appeared for the first time, causing emotional response from others, dreams were restored in the majority of those examined. In the state of the physiological sphere, no positive dynamics were detected at this stage either. Clinical forms of psychopathology, with the exception of transient and situational reactions, were not observed in the “acute” period (up to two weeks) after exposure to extreme factors. The main forms of transient psychopathology (according to the leading symptom) in victims, as a rule, are: asthenic and depressive states - 56%; psychogenic stupor - 23%; general psychomotor agitation - 11%; pronounced negativism with symptoms of autism - 4%; delusional-hallucinatory reactions (mainly during the drowsy period) - 3%; inadequacy, euphoria - 3%.

6. More late dates(after a month) in 12% - 22% of victims, persistent sleep disturbances, unmotivated fears, recurring nightmares, obsessions, delusional-hallucinatory states and some others were detected, and signs of astheno-neurotic reactions in combination with psychosomatic disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, cardiovascular and endocrine systems were determined in 75% of victims (“delayed reaction stage”). At the same time, internal and external conflict potential increased, requiring special approaches.

Appealing to the events in Beslan, it should be recognized that the severity and dynamics of the condition of the victims may be significantly different. When a person loses his parents, the world becomes empty, but, nevertheless, sad as it is, this corresponds to everyday ideas and the natural course of events. When children die, all the colors of the world fade, for many years and decades, and sometimes forever.

A few words about the modification of society. The intensification of basic anxiety and the deterioration of the psychophysiological state of people, even those located thousands of kilometers from the tragedy, is a well-known fact, which is based on the inevitable psycho-emotional inclusion of the subject in any observation. It would be worth especially emphasizing that it is “observation” (or “visual sequence”, the broadcast of which, it seems, should be “dosed” against the backdrop of full meaningful coverage of events). The inevitable psycho-emotional inclusion forms the phenomenon of “complicity” and subsequent identifications. The main form of identification in a cultural community is identification with victims and survivors, which suggests the need for broad social therapy. However, in some cases, defensive-unconscious “identification with the aggressor” is possible (especially among young people), which can lead to an increase in delinquency and crime.

After such tragic situations, as a rule, the unity of the nation increases and at the same time people feel the need for some bright changes, so that everything in life becomes more honest, noble, sincere, better than it was before, which imposes special obligations on representatives of all government bodies.

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

A person uses the reserve of safety endowed by Nature very rarely, once or twice in his entire life, and sometimes this reserve may turn out to be completely unclaimed. Safety margin is a guarantee of our survival, biological protection, and is used only when it comes to life and death.

Fear and a sense of self-preservation at the time of an extreme situation “allows” the human body to fully use this reserve, but most people resort to their emergency reserve quite rarely. But once a person has used the entire reserve of his capabilities, then for the rest of his life he never ceases to be amazed at how he managed to do it.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

STRENGTH RECORDS

From time to time, weightlifters remind society of themselves with their original tricks with weights, setting records in the process. The press does not forget to tell its readers about this.

In the Basque Country (Spain), traditional weight lifting competitions are regularly held. In 1987, Inaki Perurena was recognized as the strongest among the Basques: he lifted a concrete block weighing 300 kg three times in a row.

At the end of the twentieth century, a teacher at the Academy of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Belarus, Captain Vyacheslav Khoronenko, made a serious claim about himself. At first, the athlete's favorite sports equipment there were weights. Using weights of varying weights, he set many weight lifting achievements - more than 70 national records, more than 10 top world records. So, during the course of 24 hours he lifted a one-pound weight 18,108 times (almost 300 tons) - an absolute world record.
The athlete pushed a two-pound weight, sitting in a split, until he broke the record listed in the Guinness Book of Records - 55 times. Setting records on the platform was not enough for the weightlifter, and he, with a two-pound weight, sank to the bottom of the pool and, sitting in the splits, lifted the weight 21 times in 52 seconds - the time for which he managed to hold his breath. It could be argued that Archimedes' law applies underwater. Indeed, water makes the weight 7-8 kg lighter, but the conditions for lifting weights are not entirely suitable for humans.

V. Khoronenko soon got tired of weights. In addition, it turned out that in Europe weights are not taken seriously. There, spectators admire the lifting of weights, but some special kind of weights. For example, in Holland, athletes lift and throw boulders at a distance. The Belarusian strongman replaced the weights with a 40-kilogram keg of beer, and after some time set an absolute world record: within 24 hours he lifted the keg 3,150 times, for a total of 126 tons. At the same time, it was necessary to comply with strict conditions: rest only 5 minutes after every hour of lifting weights.

In 2000, Sergei Matskevich set a world record for lifting a one-pound weight for five hours - he jerked the weight 7030 times without a break.

In 2000, a Belarusian strongman from Bobruisk, 39-year-old Vladimir Savelyev, set a world record: over the course of 24 hours he lifted a 24-kilogram weight alternately with his right and left hands 19,275 times, which totaled 462 tons 600 kg. V. Savelyev is a biology teacher by profession, but outwardly he does not look like a hero - height is 175 cm, weight is 100 kg.

In November 2000, 26-year-old Vahan Sargsyan, a former Armenian weightlifting champion, demonstrated a unique strength trick. First, Vagan stripped to the waist, and then began to pierce himself with hooks from of stainless steel. He inserted one hook into both hands, and hooked two hooks onto the skin of his chest. Assistants attached steel cables to the hooks, which were stretched to a minibus weighing 1,540 kg. It’s amazing that this short, frail man, weighing 65 kg, moved the car and dragged it a distance of about 8 meters!

Omar Khanapiev, a 30-year-old strength gymnast from Dagestan, set a record in 2001: he grabbed a cable with his teeth, moved a TU-134 plane and dragged it a distance of 7 meters. On November 7 of the same year, the strongman, in the same way, dragged railway locomotives weighing 136 and 140 tons, respectively, over a distance of 10 and 12 meters. And two days later, Khanapiev, in the port of Makhachkala, moved and dragged a tanker with a displacement of 567 tons through the water at a distance of 15 meters.

In 2002, 30 men and 8 women from 20 countries came to Malaysia to show off and flex their muscles. The audience had something to be surprised about. Dutchman Yamo Hams moved and pulled a 16-ton truck behind him. Canadian Hugo Girard picked up a set of weights with a total weight of 260 kg, lifted them and carried them around the stadium for several meters. Women were not inferior to men either; the weaker sex has proven that it is not weak. American Shannon Hartnett demonstrated the same as Hugo, but her weights were twice as light. Swede Anna Rosen lifted three trucks weighing three tons off the ground. Pole Mariusz Pudzinovsky wanted to repeat this act, but he could only lift a two-ton truck. And American Jill Mills ran around the stadium with an 80-kilogram shield.

In September 2003, forty-year-old Georges Christin from Luxembourg, nicknamed “Steel Teeth,” came to Yaroslavl with one goal - to set a new official record, 24 in a row. In his homeland, Christophen is quite famous person: he lifted a table with a woman sitting on it with his teeth, dragged a 20-ton carriage with his teeth for a distance of 200 meters, lifted three sports planes with pilots, etc. In Yaroslavl, a Luxembourger moved with his teeth and dragged along the Volga for a distance of 10 meters 120- a ton ship with passengers whose weight was 2830 kg.

In 2003, multiple kickboxing champion 29-year-old Nugzar Gograchadze dragged a train weighing 228 tons with his teeth over a distance of 4 meters. This is 70 cm and 5 tons more than the record recorded in the Guinness Book of Records.

Nowadays, Vasily Virastyuk is considered the most powerful person in Ukraine. His parameters: weight - 140 kg, height - 191 cm, chest volume - 142 cm, neck volume - 49 cm, biceps volume - 49 cm.

At the beginning of 2004 in Lvov, with a large crowd of people, he moved a couple of five tram cars and stretched them over a distance of 17.9 meters; each car weighed 20.3 tons. Then, practically without resting, the hero took a box-case with steel blanks in both hands, each box weighed 171 kg. Task: take these “suitcases” as far as possible. But at the 19th meter Virastyuk tripped - the load touched the ground. Angry at the failure with the “suitcases,” Virastyuk decided to move a road train of ten Mitsubishi-Karisma cars, each car weighing 1,600 kg. The strongman pulled this road train to a distance of 19.4 meters.

People have always been interested in what lies beyond ordinary perception, what is inaccessible to the majority. However, along with interest, there was also fear due to the lack of reliable information and the unknown. Recently, paranormal or unusual abilities of people have become the 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, mysteries still remain that are beyond our understanding. There are many amazing cases that happened with ordinary people and published in the press. Some events simply cannot be explained by modern science.

So, perhaps the most famous case occurred when a mother was walking with her little son and got distracted. The child ran out onto the road and was hit by a car. Seeing this picture, the baby’s mother rushed to his aid and lifted the car. It is this case that in our time is most often described by scientists as proof that the human body has hidden abilities.

Another fairly famous incident occurred during the war. The pilot got stuck due to a bolt caught in the mechanism steering. Fearing death, the pilot began to pull the handle with all his strength and miraculously was able to right the plane. After landing, the mechanics carefully examined the controls and found a sheared bolt. As a result of the examination, it turned out that in order to cut such a bolt, a force of 500 kilograms would be required.

One man was walking through the forest and accidentally came across a sleeping bear. Out of fear, he grabbed a log lying nearby and rushed to run towards the nearby village. When the danger was over, he threw the log to the ground, caught his breath and looked at it. It turned out to be a huge tree trunk, which he later could not drag alone from the road. The man could not even 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 the child fell out of the 7th floor window, his mother managed to grab him with one hand, and with the other she held on to the brick of the cornice, with only two fingers - the index and middle. She held on like that until the rescuers arrived, who then with difficulty unclenched her fingers.

A 70-year-old woman carried her 40-year-old son, who was involved in an accident, for 13 kilometers on her back, never stopping or lowering him to the ground.

Some researchers claim that a person uses only 10% of his abilities. And this applies to both the body and the brain.

The hypnologist Vul demonstrated an amazing ability - he had the ability to suggest at a distance. Wohl sent a letter by mail, in which the word was written in his handwriting: “Sleep!” If the patient had already been to see this doctor before, then upon receiving the letter he immediately fell asleep.

The French pop artist Michel Lotito had an amazing ability - he can eat anything he sees. When he was still a child, he “ate” a TV, and from the age of 15 he began to entertain people for money, eating rubber, glass and metal. Because Michel ate the plane (although it took about 2 years to eat it), he was included in the Guinness Book of Records. Biologist K. Richardson can spend an entire night in a cage with lions. For unknown reasons, the lions accept Richardson as one of their own. Thai Ngoc from Vietnam has not slept at all since 1973 - it started after he had a fever.

The phenomenon of Monica Tejada.

There are many such inexplicable phenomena in our world. An amazing phenomenon is demonstrated to scientists by Monica Tejada from Spain. Even metal objects bend under her gaze.

There are no tricks here. The scientists placed steel wire in a sealed glass vessel. However, this did not stop Monica from bending the solid thread into the shape of a dinosaur with a closed mouth. During this process, instruments recorded an increase in the girl’s body temperature and a decrease in her blood pressure. This combination leads doctors to a dead end. At the same time, the electroencephalograph showed biocurrents characteristic of a sleeping person. 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 man named Al Herpin. There was neither a trestle bed nor a bed in his shack - Al Herpin had never slept in his entire life. The old man, who lived to that age, outlived the doctors who examined him. Al Herpin's appetite and health were good, and his mental abilities were average. Of course, after a day's work he was tired, but he could not sleep. The old man would simply sit in a chair and read until he felt rested. After regaining his physical strength, he returned to work. Doctors were unable to explain their patient’s chronic insomnia, just as they could not explain the source of his longevity.

There is a known case that occurred in a Russian village. There lived an old sick woman named Matryona. She could not hear well, could not see, and could hardly walk. One night her house caught fire. The whole village ran to the fire. Imagine the surprise of the people when they saw this old woman climbing over the high fence. Moreover, she was holding a large chest in her hands, which several men later could not lift. Where are the limits of human capabilities? And do they exist at all?

In Mexico City on Olympic Games in 1968, a track and field athlete named Robert Beamon was able to jump almost 9 meters. Of course, it seems impossible, but Robert's record was broken. And the record, which was set in 500 BC in Ancient Greece, looks absolutely fantastic - the 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 no brain. Although it is known that even the slightest damage to the cerebral cortex can lead to death.

The fact that there are people in the world who live with foreign objects in their bodies does not surprise anyone now. But an incident that occurred in one of the New York hospitals seems simply incredible. A person came to the hospital with a slight illness. Doctors conducted an examination and found more than 250 objects in his body. There were only 26 keys in the patient’s body. The man did not say where there were so many objects in his body.

An equally striking case occurred with a 12-year-old Russian boy who went to the hospital in a small town with complaints of dizziness and weakness. During the examination, doctors discovered a bullet wound in the heart area. It is unknown how the boy received such a wound, and most importantly, how he survived. X-ray determined that the bullet was in the solar artery. The boy was urgently sent to Moscow, where the bullet was removed from his body. She made an incredible journey in the body - she punctured the lung and entered the heart, which pushed her out into the 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 became blind, but at the same time she had a completely new and amazing ability to see.

Dr. Lombroso conducted research, which revealed that the girl sees through her left earlobe and nose. To exclude the slightest possibility of the girl’s eyes being involved, during the experiment the doctors covered them with a bandage so that peeking was completely excluded. However, despite Taken measures, the girl could easily read blindfolded and distinguish colors perfectly.

When a bright light flashed near 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 wanted to blind her. There was an astonishing shift in the senses that affected more than just vision. When the experimenter brought the solution ammonia to the girl's nose, she did not react. But as soon as he brought the solution to her chin, she jerked in pain. She could smell scents with her chin.

It must be said that some people are able to completely control the abilities of their body. These include primarily Indian yogis. Perhaps the most amazing ability of yogis is that they can stop the beating of their own heart. Yogis can put themselves into 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 powers are hidden in a person? Based on the above, we can assume that the capabilities of the human body are limitless. You just need to learn to control them.

Diamond tears

A woman named Hanuma, living in Africa, earned the nickname "Diamond" for her unusual ability to cry diamonds. Since childhood, Hanuma has not cried. 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 father was a jeweler and, having examined the small crystals, he easily determined that they were real diamonds. The parents decided to keep Hanuma's unusual abilities a secret, and the father used his daughter's crystals to make jewelry, which was in great demand. One of the clients suspected something was wrong and submitted the diamond for examination, as a result of which it turned out that the stone had organic origin. The girl became famous throughout the world. But scientists have not yet been able to uncover the secret of diamond tears.

Man is ice

Dutch resident Wim Hof ​​is not sensitive to any cold. Thanks to his unusual abilities, the Dutchman conquered mountain peaks in only his underwear, swam long time in icy water and performed many similar feats.

Doctors carried out examinations of the body of an amazing person, but the results of the studies did not show any deviations from the norm in Vim’s body after cold procedures. The Dutchman's unusual abilities allow him to feel comfortable in conditions that would be fatal for any other person.

"Perpetual motion machine"

The baby, named Ret Lamba, who is three years old, has never slept in his life. He is awake around the clock. Ret’s parents, of course, were not delighted with their son’s abilities, but most of all they were concerned about the child’s health. 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 research has cleared up the picture a little. It turned out that the brain and nervous system The amazing child's brain is designed in a special way, thanks to which the boy does not need sleep, his brain rests while awake.

Man is a reptile

History knows of cases where people had the ability to replace their skin with a new one, just like reptiles do. Born 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. She came off her arms and legs like gloves or socks.

After the old skin fell off, one could see in its place young, pink and tender skin, similar to that of newborn babies. Over the course of several years, Mr. Buskirk assembled a “leather” collection.

Glowing patient

Anna Monaro, who suffered from asthma, began to look like a fluorescent lamp in 1934. During her illness, a bluish glow emanated from her chest. This phenomenon lasted for several weeks and was documented by doctors. Sometimes the color of the glow changed to red and green. No one has been able to explain this phenomenon.

One psychiatrist suggested that "the phenomenon is caused by electrical and magnetic organisms that have become quite developed in this woman's body and are therefore emitting a radiance" - in other words, another way of saying, "I don't know." Another doctor proposed the theory of electromagnetic radiation, linking it with certain chemical components found 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 fasting and piety, had increased the amount of sulphides in the blood. Human blood emits rays in the ultraviolet range, and sulfides can be made to luminesce by ultraviolet irradiation, which explains the glow emanating from Signora Monaro's breast (The Times, May 5, 1934).

Anna Monaro

The proposed theory did not explain the strange periodicity or localization of the bluish flashes, and soon the confused researchers fell completely silent.

Gould and Pyle's 1937 book Anomalies and Curiosities in Medicine describes the case of a woman suffering from breast cancer. The light emanating from the sore area of ​​the chest was sufficient 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 it soon stopped on its own. When the body was lifted from the bed, it was discovered that the sheet under it was burned... The only case of light emission was practically healthy person(not counting, of course, the saints) is described in the magazine “English Mechanic” dated September 24, 1869:

“One American woman, going to bed, discovered a glow on the top of the fourth toe of her right foot. When she rubbed her leg, the glow increased and some unknown force pushed her fingers apart. A stench emanated from the leg, and both the light emission and the smell did not stop even when the leg was immersed in a basin of water. Even soap could not extinguish or reduce the glow. This phenomenon lasted three quarters of an hour, and was observed by the woman’s husband.”

The Church views the phenomenon of “firefly people” approvingly. Pope Benedict XIV wrote: “...It must be recognized as a fact that there is a natural flame that sometimes becomes visible around the human head, and it also seems true that sometimes fire can emanate from the whole body of a person, 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 capable of generating small amounts, but not storing electricity. However, there are people whose unusual abilities are that they can accumulate electricity within themselves, and, when appropriate, release it onto surrounding objects.

For example, the journal Prediction published an article in 1953 that talked about a baby who electrocuted doctors. For another whole day, he retained 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 some changes in his body, but could not understand what it was until he accidentally shocked his colleague, knocking him down.

Rif Mukharyanov is one of those people who were able to survive a lightning strike.

Back in 1965, Reef was struck by ball lightning, and he miraculously survived. Over time, he began to see strange dreams, which soon began to come true - his psychic abilities began to awaken.

When he had completely recovered from his illness, he became seriously ill good friend. The doctors did not know what to do and just shrugged, and it was then that Reef decided to take advantage of his new opportunities. Literally two weeks later, the friend stood firmly on his feet.

Living magnet

There are also people who have magnetism. The most amazing case of manifestation of magnetic abilities is the case of the American Frank McKinstry. His body was pulled towards the ground. Magnetism manifested itself especially strongly in the mornings. Frank had to move very quickly, without stopping, because his body would stick to the ground if he stopped for a couple of seconds, and then the man could no longer continue moving without outside help.

Often people do not realize that they have some unusual abilities. A resident of Germany, Erika Zur Strindberg, discovered the magnetic abilities of her body after watching a TV show that talked about the magnetism of a Russian woman, Natalia Petrasova.

Just out of curiosity, the German woman put a spoon to her chest and it “stuck” to the woman. Then Eric was hung with almost all the cutlery to make sure he had an unusual ability.

Unusual abilities remain to be unraveled

Many scientists agree that this kind of ability is potentially inherent in every person, but they manifest themselves only in extreme situations or after severe life shocks. An example of this hypothesis is the fortuneteller Vanga, who, having lost her sight, gained the ability to foresee the future, the present of people and their past.

Also, the famous German clairvoyant Wolf Messing became the owner of his unusual abilities after he spent for a long time in a state of clinical death. This happened when Messing was eleven years old.

There are many cases where people, having emerged from clinical death, acquired the ability to read minds and speak in previously unknown or even dead languages. An amazing incident happened to the polar explorer pilot Grigory Popov. While repairing the plane, Gregory heard some rustling behind him, and turning around, he saw a polar bear - one of the most dangerous predators. The pilot did not have time to understand anything, as he already found himself at a two-meter height - on the wing of the plane. He climbed there in one leap.

Does every person have some hidden abilities or are they possessed only by exceptional individuals? Why were these abilities given to them? Do these people have some kind of 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 within the scope of serious scientific research.
