Cartoon and filmy superheroes are always potent and powerful in doing everything that cannot be done by the common man. Super speed, super power, super fight, super look and what more! But, becoming a super hero in real life by doing superhero things that others cannot even imagine is something different and difficult. But, there are people who are successful in becoming real superheroes. We can call them humans with super powers!

Coming to the scientific facts, the reason behind the superhero powers of some people are explained while most others remain inexplicable. They still remain as a challenge before the advancement of science and technology. These real life superheroes leave scientists scratching their head. The heroic things that they did may challenge even your fictional dream hero. Here we go with a list of crazy superhero things that a few super strong people have done that may make you squeal in excitement.

Top 5 Superheroic People With Superhuman Abilities

Small but strong: Liam Hoekstra, may look like a six year old boy, but he is strong enough to play with a ten-pound dumbbell. By the age of three, he could lift his parents sitting on a sofa. His skeletal muscles are strong, but he doesn’t look bulky. This is considered to be because of his exceptionally rare genetic disorder called myostatin-related muscle hypertrophy.

Cutting a shot bullet: It may be hard to believe that Isao Machii is not a fictional character, but a real human being. Can you imagine slicing a bullet in half when it is mid-air, as it approach towards you at 160 feet per second? Well then, this is exactly what Isao Machii's heroic ability is. The scientific explanation for this ability is that he has an anticipatory processing sensing method.

Staying underwater for infinite time: Another human with a super power is Solvin. He can be considered as super aquaman for his ability to stay underwater for an infinite amount of time. Together with his family he has lived his entire life on a houseboat and rarely comes on shore. He has more clear vision underwater then the average man and can hold his breath over a long period of time.

Real human heater: We have heard about many cartoon and fictional characters who make us surprised with their super natural powers. But, what about boiling a cup of water kept on your palms? No wonder Master Zhou can do this. He is another super human with the ability to generate heat of up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit from the palms of his hands. This is one of the heroic things that man can ever do! This ability remains unexplainable by modern science.

The iceman: Can you imagine spending ten continuous minutes on ice without yelling? If not, you should know this superhuman ice man! It’s Wim Hof, whose super human power is that he is unreceptive to cold. He climbed Mount Everest, wearing just shorts to a temperature of minus 35 degrees. This cool man remains hot by doing this heroic thing. Even though it is quite a superheroic feat, he says it was simple!
