Superhumans (uncommon abilities for common people)

They're among us, they walk ours streets, it can be one of our friend, a sibling a parent. What's the difference then? They can do something that none else can. I'm not talking about Heroes as media presents them to us but real people with real job and a real house that have extraordinary mental or physical abilities, here a small list of the ones I believe are the most incredible.


Daniel Browning Smith, probably the most famous
among the superhumans. Daniel owns the title for "the most flexible man in the world" at Guinness World Records. During his life he took part in a bunch of commercials and movies that made him famous for his exceptional contorsion's skill.


Daniel Kish, I'm amazed by human nature every time i come across this guy. Daniel is been blind for almost all his life, strange thing about this is that he can still do most of things that require vision using a bat-like technique called echolocation.  
                                                                                                     

Dear Karnazes, "the world's most famous ultra marathon runner". That's how the world describes a man who ran 50 marathons in 50 states on 50 consecutive days showing a not common durability, even a 
movie was made. The same guy cycled for 40 miles (64km) from his house to his grandparent's for his 12th birthday, are you surprised?


Shaun Ellis, next level "communication". In fact he claims of his ability to "talk" to wolves. Obviously it's not a real "speech" but he can communicate to them through acting and sounding like one of them.

There it was, part of human's abilities I like the most, feel free to comment and tell us what your list of "superhumans" is.
