7. Superhuman Strength
Liam Hoekstra was born in Roosevelt Park, Michigan in 2005. At the young age of 5 months old, Liam performed an iron cross. For those of you unfamiliar with the iron cross, it’s a gymnastics strength hold where one holds themselves between 2 rings forming the shape of a cross. This move is so incredibly hard to do, you’d have a hard time finding someone at a gym that can perform it. Liam has a condition called myostatin-related muscle hypertrophy or simply muscle enlargement. This condition doesn’t affect the heart and has no known side effects. Liam packs on 40% more muscle than average, has incredible strength and quickness and an increased metabolism with very low body fat. Basically what every dude at the gym strives for.

6. Human Computer
Daniel Tammet, born on January 31st, 1979 was born with the ability to do huge calculations and remember essentially anything. Daniel was identified as a savant early on was diagnosed with asperger’s syndrome when he was 25. Daniel has counted out Pi to 22,514 digits, which took him 5 hours, and can learn a new language within a week. Not only can he learn a new language in a week he learned Icelandic, one of the hardest languages on earth to learn in a week for a documentary.

5. The Battery Man
Slavisa Pajkic was born with a unique ability to be able to absorb electrical current without any damage. 50 volts is enough to cause serious harm to the average person, but Slavisa has taken 20,000 volts without a mark. Slavisa didn’t always know about this ability, he found out at age 17.
He holds 2 world records, one for the 20,000 volts and the second is being able to conduct electricity long enough to boil a cup of water to 97 degrees Celsius or 206 degrees Fahrenheit which took 1 minute and 37 seconds. If this isn’t crazy enough, he can actually store electricity in his body and release it on command which he demonstrated by setting an alcohol soaked cloth ablaze. Ya I’m not shaking this guy’s hand anytime soon. Scientists have studied him and don’t have the slightest idea of how he does it.

4. Monkey Girl
Tori Allen or the monkey girl has the ability to climb like a monkey. Her remarkable climbing skills come from growing up with a pet monkey and climbing and playing in trees all day. At age 11 Tori set the National Outdoor Climbing record and at age 12, became a professional rock climber. She is also the youngest female to summit the nose of El Capitan in Yosemite National Park. Just one year later at age 14 she won a gold medal at the X Games. Tori is the only one on this list who wasn’t born with her ability but learned it at a young age. She can thank her pet monkey Gorgie and her West Africa upbringings as well as all her own hard work.

3. RubberBoy
Daniel Browning Smith or the Rubberboy is the world’s most flexible man. He was born being able to bend, flex, hyperextend and dislocate his limbs and joints to a limit not seen by anyone else. At the age of 4 he became interested in contortion and strived to be the best. At age 18 he had already mastered all the usual contortionist tricks and joined the circus. His career later led to be the host of Stan Lee’s Superhumans television series as well as a handful of movie appearances, usually playing the role of an alien doing something humans don’t normally do.

2. Iceman
Wim Hof a dutch born daredevil has the rare ability to endure frigid temperatures for prolonged periods of time. Since he was a teenager he has been running barefoot in the snow which he has shocked people time and time again. In 2007 he attempted to climb Mount Everest with just a pair of shorts and sandals on. He made it to 24,300 feet or 7400 meters up the mountain when he suffered frostbite in his foot to which he turned back. He was only a mere 5000 feet from the summit.

1. Human Dolphin
Stig Severinsen has the ability to hold his breath longer than anyone on earth. The average person can’t hold their breathe for more than a minute, Stig on the other hand set a Guinness World Record by holding his breath for 22 minutes. Stig isn’t a one dimensional person though, has a Ph.D in medicine, has represented Denmark in underwater Rugby and swimming events. He holds four freediving AIDA world records and holds 2 Guinness world records. When he performed his 22 minute world record on Stan Lee’s Superhumans tv show, it appeared as if he used red blood cells stored in his spleen to achieve this record much like a dolphin would.
