Do you believe in Superman and Wolverine but you know for sure that there are no superheroes? We hasten to dissuade you! It turns out that some unusual abilities really exist, and people endowed with them can compete with everyone Avengers combined! We tell you about the most incredible gene mutations.
Incredibly strong bones
The gene responsible for super-strong bones was found in Africans with Dutch roots. Apparently, such a crazy mixture has turned out that now these people are practically bulletproof! This group of people does not lose bone mass throughout life (like a mere mortal), but, on the contrary, increases it. And they only get stronger with age. By the way, even the skin of such people ages very slowly.
HIV resistance
Some people have a genetic mutation that disables their protein copies CCR5. This is exactly the kind of protein that HIV uses as a kind of door to the human body. In some people, a genetic mutation has been found that disables the mechanism for its reproduction. Therefore, if a person does not have CCR5, the disease cannot enter its cells. However, there is a but. Scientists have proven that people with such a mutation are not exactly immune to HIV but are simply more stable. Among them were those who became infected and died from AIDS a.
photographic memory

As a rule, people who have a photographic memory, that is, they remember a huge amount of information on the fly, and almost from the first minutes of their lives, suffer from autism. Interestingly, these people are usually completely asocial, but as soon as they look through a book or see a movie in an unfamiliar language, they immediately remember and analyze everything. Do you remember the movie "Rain Man"? Raymond Bebbit was able to retell the contents of about 12 thousand books by heart.
super smell
Everything in the life of these people is associated with smells. They distinguish their slightest shades, even where ordinary people do not feel anything, like the hero of a novel. Patrick Suskind "Perfumer". Yes, it is not easy for such people to live, because they can constantly suffer from bad smells, even get seriously ill, as soon as their nose smells something unpleasant. But, on the other hand, they are able to enjoy inaccessible flavors.
immortal cells
In 1951, a certain Henrietta Lax cervical cancer was found, and after a year of severe illness she died. But before that, a surgeon who trained with her family doctor took a sample of the woman's tumor tissue and performed an experiment. Scientist propagated tissue sample Henrietta into an endless cell line - a line HeLa. In cells from a tumor lex was the active form of the enzyme, which spreads unusually fast. On the day of death Henrietta Lax doctor Guy announced to the world that a new age in medical research had begun - one that could provide a cure for cancer.
Cells today HeLa very common in laboratories. cells HeLa even more than in life Henrietta Lax, - they outweigh its physical mass many times over. These cells have also been used to develop cures for polio, AIDS, exposure to radiation, toxic substances and, by the way, for cloning.
reduced sleep
It seems that everyone dreams of such a superpower, but instead we get super sleepy! It turns out that people who need five hours of sleep to feel alert exist. The fact is that they have a rare genetic mutation of the gene DEC2. It leads to the fact that the need for long sleep is reduced. If ordinary people sleep for six hours or less, they will begin to experience negative effects almost immediately. And in people with a gene mutation DEC2 no problem at all. Wonders!
Echolocation
Echolocation is usually developed in the blind. And it develops, even if a person has completely lost his sight at a conscious age. True, at Batman it was also developed with acute vision. The fact is that bats are endowed with echolocation. It works like this: they send a sound signal into the dark and calculate the distance to invisible objects from the reflection of the sound wave. The blind can imagine the distance to objects by the reflection of a sound wave, this helps to navigate in space in complete darkness.
Cold resistance
Are you stocking up for the winter with a mountain of blankets and felt boots? But for people who do not feel the cold, at least go in a swimsuit in winter! Residents of cold places (for example, Eskimos) often have this ability. They exhibit amazing physiological responses to low temperatures. This level of adaptation indicates a genetic component, since not a single person who moved to cold lands will get used to low temperatures even in 10 years. Scientists have found that, for example, native Siberians are better adapted to the cold, even compared to visitors living among them. This adaptation partly explains why Australians can sleep on the ground without a blanket when it's cold on cold nights, and Eskimos thrive most of their lives in sub-zero temperatures.
Synesthesia
Synesthesia is most often a genetic feature and manifests itself in the association of letters or numbers with certain colors, when the excitation of some sensors entails an involuntary reaction of others. Imagine that you involuntarily associate each number and letter with a certain color or a word evokes certain taste sensations. Although synesthesia is a neurological disorder, it does not entail a disability. For the most part, those who have it do not see it as having a negative impact on their lives. By the way, Vladimir Nabokov suffered from synesthesia.
The inability to increase cholesterol
If many of us are not very worried about limiting our intake of fatty foods, then some people can eat all of this in any quantities at all. Regardless of what they eat, cholesterol remains almost at zero. They lack working copies of the gene PCSK9. And although it is not good to be born with a missing gene, there are certain positive effects in this case. True, while scientists have found these mutations in only a few African Americans, they have a 90% reduced risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. And pharmaceutical companies have begun working on a pill that will block PCSK9 from other people. The drug is almost ready for approval.
genetic chimerism
Chimerism scientifically called also tetragametism. It happens that two fertilized eggs or embryos in the early stages of pregnancy merge, as a result of which a person carries two sets of genes, and not one. Sometimes this is reflected in the appearance and physical condition of a person, and sometimes it is revealed only during analysis. DNA. About a hundred such cases have been described in the medical literature. It is assumed that chimerism in humans is a consequence of parents taking drugs for infertility. For example, in one woman, the parameters of the head differed markedly from the parameters of the body. When she was supposed to have a kidney transplant, it turned out that none of her sons could be a donor, since she ... is not their mother. And studies have shown that a woman's ovaries have two genomes.

Which of the above list would you like to wear?
Incredible Facts
Mutants with superpowers are not only found in comics. Of course, we are not talking about such pronounced fantastic talents, which we had the opportunity to observe, say, in the X-men from Marvel Comics.
However, there are very real people who were born with unusual and extremely rare abilities. Their talents are so unusual that using any other definition, instead of "superpower", does not turn the tongue.
The only difference between real people and fictional superheroes is that the former do not save the world, destroying adjacent skyscrapers along the way. They lead quite normal lives. But this is only at first glance - the usual ...
The superpower that many dream of does not always turn life into an adventure. For many, superpower comes with absolutely terrible side effects that can make the life of a "superhuman" an absolute hell...
People with superpowers
The little girl who feels no pain
Olivia Farnsworth never feels pain. The fact is that she was born with a rare pathology called chromosomal deletion(to be more precise, a deletion of a section of the shoulder of the 6th chromosome).
We are talking about the loss of a section of the chromosome, which led to the fact that the girl does not feel pain. This means that she is practically unfamiliar with the sense of danger, since she has not experienced in her life the "punishment" of pain for careless behavior.
In some cases, this ability proved to be an invaluable gift. She helped her survive when girl hit by car. The car literally ran over her chest, dragging the poor fellow for several meters until it stopped.
And while her family was recovering from the shock, Olivia stood up, dusted herself off and waved to her mother as if nothing had happened. The only reason that allowed her to survive is that the girl was not tense, as she did not feel fear.
Since Olivia does not feel pain, her emotions at the time of the car significantly different from the emotions of any other person, find himself, like this girl, on the verge of death.
However, in most cases, Olivia's condition brings a huge amount of terrible trouble and trouble not only to herself, but also to her entourage. The girl never feels tired or hungry, so her mother must always be on the alert.
She goes to great lengths to get her child to eat. To put my daughter to sleep Olivia's mother has to give her occasional sleeping pills, since overwork is extremely dangerous for a young organism. Deadly dangerous.
And do not forget about other reasons when pain saves us: when we get burned or hurt. With Olivia, these warnings do not work, so an eye and an eye is needed for her.
The girl cannot burn herself with boiling water, so she will continue to drink it, which can lead to damage to the larynx and esophagus. She can even bite off a piece of her lip, tongue or cheeks when eating and not notice it. Perhaps being able to feel pain is not always a bad thing?
A woman with an impeccable memory
Jill Price never forgets anything. She is ready to recall any event of her life without prior preparation; Jill is able to easily recall in her memory the date, time and any other minute details of any event that has ever happened to her.
Her brain is, if you like, just an endless resource of memory, a kind of video recorder, which can always be easily "rewound" to the necessary Jill Price moment of life from her past.
Such an ability promises a huge number of advantages and, at first glance, does not have any so-called pitfalls that can spoil the buzz from the filigree ability to manipulate your memory.
However, this is only felt at first glance. Just imagine your feelings and emotions, if you had such a superpower. Jill Price, for example, describes this talent of his as "endless, uncontrollable and absolutely draining".
The memory of a woman constantly gives rise to such vivid images that Jill has almost no opportunity to fully concentrate on what is happening around her. She is constantly forced to be distracted by diving into her past and memories.
This feature almost nullifies Jill's ability to assimilate knowledge, since she can't concentrate on new things. It looks as if her memory was tied to specific objects, things and images.
Thus, Jill's memory, although perfect, is not able to work in the direction in which it is most important to her here and now. Despite the fact that Jill perfectly remembers every little thing from her personal experience, it is more difficult for her than for other people to remember, for example, some simple school facts, abstract things.
People with unbreakable bones
In 1994, a man known only to be named John (a name possibly made up) got into a terrible car accident. By all the laws of physics and biology, John should not have survived.
However, a miracle happened, and the man received almost no damage, apart from a few scratches. His spine did not have a single crack; every single bone in the body also remained intact.
Experts drew attention to this case, given the degree of destruction of his car. To the surprise of the doctors, not only John himself, but all members of his family never in their life faced with either cracked bones or fractures.
Perhaps this story will seem fiction - it is too close to the cinema, as, say, in the film "Invulnerable" with Bruce Willis in the title role. However, we are talking about a real, not a fictional person.
John really came into the world with denser bones than any average person - eight times denser, to be exact. And, accordingly, much more durable.
John has the same problem as the character Willis in the above film - he is too heavy to float, and therefore it is quite difficult for him to swim. It is noteworthy that many of the people with the same pathology note that their life is far from sugar. Especially in adulthood.
The higher skeletal density is a real daily test of endurance. But no bones, but the whole body, which wears out faster, since all other tissues of the body are always forced to experience additional stress due to denser bones.
So far, John has no particular complaints about his health. However, according to experts, the older John becomes, the more clearly he will realize that his inability to properly float on the water is far from the biggest inconvenience that a heavy skeleton delivers.
Human superpowers
The woman who can see a hundred million colors
Most people have three types of cones (sensitive receptors in the retina) of the eye, which allow them to distinguish spectrum of seven million colors. The other millions of colors represented in the universe are inaccessible to almost anyone - except animals and some women.
About such a phenomenon as tetrachromacy (the perception of four basic types of color due to the presence of four types of cones), as well as the fact that this phenomenon may be available to some women, it has been said more than once.
However, in reality, only one woman was identified, which can be called a "true tetrachromat". She was given the name "subject cDa29". This woman alone was found to have four fully functional cone types among humans.
This anomaly gives subject cDa29 the ability to see a vast spectrum of one hundred million colors. She is able to see the full spectrum of the rainbow of colors, including those millions of colors that remain inaccessible even to our imagination.
It is a real miracle if someone suddenly realizes in himself the ability to see these colors. In fact, the subject of cDa29 sees such colors, which she can't even describe to other people. But that's not all.
This woman, with all the complex hues she sees, has a pretty hard time imagining the colors other people see. As a result, subject cDa29, prior to being recognized as a tetrachromat, was thought to be merely colorblind.
There is a theory that only one to three percent of all women on our planet may be able to see the full spectrum, consisting of one hundred million colors. However, they do not perceive this skill as some kind of feature.
These women, like subject cDa29, were labeled as colorblind. And their male offspring too - but already justified. In a strange twist of fate, the gene that allows women to see more colors makes their sons color blind. At the very least, subject cDa29 will never pass this ability on to his sons.
Man with fantastically stretching skin
Harry Turner is a kind of Mr. Fantastic from the famous squad of the Fantastic Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Certainly, Harry's abilities are not so limitless, like its fantastic prototype.
Harry was born with a rare condition called Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. This condition has a number of other names, but the meaning is that it gives a person hyperelastic skin that can stretch like rubber.
But that's not all: a person with this pathology every moment of his life feels pain. Harry, from the moment he wakes up in the morning to the moment he takes a sleeping pill before bed, feels a constant burning pain under his skin.
The pain is so intense that Turner is forced to wear a morphine pain reliever patch that allows him to literally relive day after day. His stretching skin also led to Harry being diagnosed with hemophilia.
In other words, with such skin, it takes a very long time for blood to clot. That is, if Harry cuts himself, blood from a cut can flow for a very long time before the bleeding can be stopped somehow.
A man is forced to take so many medications throughout his life that sometimes he literally falls into an unconscious state. It can last up to forty hours until Harry wakes up again.
Because of these blackouts, Turner did not have the opportunity to finish school; and they had a strong influence on the rest of his life. The only way, how Harry can make a living is to work in the circus. He performs in a kind of freak show, although the audience does not realize how much pain his tricks deliver to him.
A woman whose beauty is the result of a mutation
Almost everyone knows one of these women - we are talking about Elizabeth Taylor. Yes, Elizabeth is, in fact, a mutant – technically speaking. Her stunning blue-violet eyes, framed by double-thick lashes, are the result of a mutation in the FOXC2 gene.
This mutation, which can occur in some women, leads to more intensive growth of eyelashes. In this case, the iris of the eye acquires a specific amazing shade.
The benefits of such a mutation for women are quite obvious. In the case of Elizabeth Taylor, these mutations helped her become a superstar. However, this mutation does not always manifest itself exactly as it did with Elizabeth. Mutations in the FOXC2 gene can cause unwanted hair to grow in unexpected places.
Sometimes these super lashes start to break through women's eyelids, which can be painful, leading to constant tearing. AND, if you do not consult a doctor with this condition, this can lead to the destruction of the superficial cells of the ocular membrane. Vision may deteriorate - up to blindness.
The same mutation is associated with certain problems that increase the risk of developing heart disease. According to statistics, women with a FOXC2 gene mutation have a significantly higher risk of developing heart disease.
Ultimately, this is what killed Elizabeth Taylor, although she died at a rather advanced age. Actress dies of congestive heart failure at the age of 79 years. Who knows, perhaps only her beautiful eyes and the love of fans allowed Elizabeth to live to old age.
Superpowers of the body
The man who was found to be immune to AIDS
American Steve Krohn has been found to have a completely inexplicable genetic mutation. For some unknown reason, the man's body demonstrated immunity to acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS).
The active period of Steve's life, which, by the way, was of non-traditional sexual orientation, fell just during the spread of the HIV epidemic. His sex life was quite promiscuous, so many simply considered him lucky to have escaped this infection.
While sexually transmitted diseases were killing a lot of people around Steve, he himself remained in excellent health. It looked all the more unusual because the man, as noted by his entourage, was not very worried about his safety.
And while many of his acquaintances tried to avoid death, Steve sought to live life to the fullest. Kron himself has repeatedly made it clear that it is very difficult for him to live, as he constantly felt the weight of grief that he experienced, losing loved ones and well-known people.
Steve wrote about his feelings: "you keep losing people every year - six people, seven people... It's not easy when you lose friends and you're young. And it happens over such a long period of time".
And as a result, Steve began to cooperate with medical specialists, allowing them to study themselves. The latter were simply surprised because they could not understand how a person can be so lucky that he, with such a lifestyle, is still alive and well.
It has always been interesting which of the superheroes is the strongest, the best and the brightest. The authoritative, independent Internet magazine IGM has ranked the 100 most powerful superheroes of all time.
It is worth saying that the rating was compiled not only on the basis of the strength of a superhero alone. Many factors were taken into account, such as dexterity, superpowers, authority, creativity, the role of a superhero in the world that he protects. There are quite controversial names on the list and perhaps you personally would place the top places differently. However, IGM's top 100 most powerful superheroes are like Forbes' top 100 richest people in the world. This rating has authority in professional circles, it is referred to, it is used.
It's also worth adding that the list contains not only superheroes, but also some fictional comic book characters, so don't be surprised to see some names here.
1 Superman
And so, Superman was named the most powerful superhero!
It is not surprising, because the alien from Krypton has not only superhuman strength and speed, but also immortality. In general, it seems that the creators of Superman decided not to infringe on their character in any way and endowed him with all the abilities that one could think of.
2 Batman
Silver goes to Bruce Wayne, or Batman. In addition to super strength, Batman can perhaps be called one of the deepest superheroes in terms of psychology and inner world.

The image of the bat was chosen as Bruce Wayne himself simply has a panic fear of these animals and it symbolizes some kind of overcoming of his fears.
3 Spiderman
Bronze goes to Peter Parker, or rather his alter ego, Spider-Man. If you can argue about the strength of Spider-Man, then in terms of popularity, Spider-Man can definitely claim the first place.
It is extremely interesting that most superheroes are tall and weigh at least 100 kilograms. Spider-Man, on the other hand, has a height of 174 cm and a weight of 75. However, a very modest size for a superhero is compensated by extraordinary dexterity, super speed and rapid healing of wounds.
