>>Roy Cleveland Sullivan was a Forest Ranger in Virginia
>>who had an incredible attraction to lightning... or
>>rather it had an attraction to him. Over his 36-year
>>career as a ranger, Sullivan was struck by lightning
>>seven times - and survived each jolt, but not
>>unscathed. When struck for the first time in 1942, he
>>suffered the loss of a nail on his big toe.
>>Twenty-seven years passed before he was struck again,
>>this time by a bolt that singed his eyebrows off. The
>>next year, in 1970, another strike burned Sullivan's
>>left shoulder. Now it looked as though lightning had
>>it out for poor Roy, and people were starting to call
>>him The Human Lightning Rod. He didn't disappoint
>>them. Lightning zapped him again in 1972, setting his
>>hair on fire and convincing him to keep a container of
>>water in his car, just in case. The water came in
>>handy in 1973 when, seemly just to taunt Sullivan, a
>>low-hanging cloud shot a bolt of lightning at his
>>head, blasting him out of his car, setting his hair on
>>fire and knocking off a shoe. The sixth strike in 1976
>>injured his ankle, and the seventh strike in 1977, got
>>him when he was fishing, and put him in the hospital
>>for treatment of chest and stomach burns. Lightning
>>may not have been able to kill Roy Sullivan, but
>>perhaps the threat of it did. He took his own life in
>>1983. Two of his lightning-singed ranger hats are on
>>display at Guinness World Exhibit Halls.
>>
>>BeastMaster
>>With just the power of his mind, he can command
>>animals to do his bidding.
>>
>>Vladimir Durov was no ordinary animal trainer. As a
>>veteran performer in a Russian circus, he claimed to
>>use a remarkable method for communicating with his
>>canine coworkers - through telepathy. Professor W.
>>Bechterev, head of the institute for the Investigation
>>of the Brain in St. Petersburg, decided to test
>>Durov's claim. Bechterev created a list of tasks that
>>he wanted one of Durov's dogs to perform in a specific
>>order, without any time for training. After hearing or
>>reading the list of tasks, Durov went to his fox
>>terrier, Pikki, took his head in his hands and stared
>>straight into the little dog's eyes - psychicly
>>transferring his thoughts directly into Pikki's brain.
>>Durov released the dog and it immediately went about
>>performing the assigned tasks. Thinking that perhaps
>>Durov was giving the dog subtle clues with his eyes,
>>the test was repeated with a new set of tasks, but
>>this time with Durov blindfolded. Pikki still
>>responded to his psychic commands.
>>
>>The Electromagneto Team
>>Charged like superconducting human batteries, they
>>roam the countryside thrilling all they meet with the
>>electrifying power at their fingertips.
>>
>>There have been several documented cases of people who
>>apparently possess inexplicable electromagnetic
>>properties:
>>
>>For just a 10-week period in 1846, 14-year-old French
>>girl Angelique Cottin's mere presence made the needles
>>of compasses spin wildly; objects as heavy as
>>furniture would slide away from her if she tried to
>>touch them; objects near her would vibrate
>>unnaturally.
>>Jennie Morgan of Sedalia, Missouri could emit
>>highly-charged sparks from her fingertips that were
>>strong enough to knock people unconscious. Animals
>>would shun her.
>>After an 18-month undiagnosed illness, Canadian
>>teenager Caroline Clare became so magnetized that
>>metal objects, like forks and knives, stuck to her
>>skin. The force was so powerful that another person
>>was required to pull them off.
>>Inga Gaiduchenko, a 14-year-old Soviet student was
>>also highly magnetic. Before members of the Moscow
>>Technological Institute, she showed how spoons and
>>pens stuck to her hands. Even non-metallic objects
>>such as china plates and books were affected.
>>The Amazing Kinetitron
>>With her thoughts alone, a steely glance or a subtle
>>gesture, she can move inanimate objects at will.
>>
>>Nina Kulagina became one of the most famous psychics
>>in the Soviet Union in the 1960s because of her
>>amazing feats of telekinesis or psychokinesis. In
>>films smuggled out of the country, Kulagina was shown
>>to be able to move small objects placed before her on
>>a table. Under close scientific observation, Kulagina
>>would hold her hands a few inches above the objects,
>>and in a few moments they would being to slide across
>>the table top. Wooden matches, small boxes, cigarettes
>>and Plexiglas would all react to her intense
>>concentration. At times, objects would continue to
>>move even when she took her hands away. In the early
>>1970s, Kulagina was even recruited by the Soviet
>>government to see if she could somehow help a sick
>>Nikita Khrushchev.
>>
>>Pyro-Elasto Man
>>Watch him stretch his body to incredible lengths and
>>handle red-hot flaming embers in his bare hands.
>>
>>Daniel Douglas Home was either one of the most
>>incredible psychic mediums of the mid-1800s or one of
>>the era's cleverest magicians. The feats this Scotsman
>>performed at close range astounded the elite and
>>royalty of his day. In one demonstration, he entered
>>his usual trance state and announced he was in touch
>>with a guardian spirit that was "very tall and
>>strong." While being watched by two witnesses who
>>flanked him, Home shot up an additional six inches in
>>height, and it could be clearly seen that his
>>slippered feet were planted flatly on the floor. Home
>>could also hold burning embers in his bare hands
>>completely without harm, a feat he performed on a
>>number of occasions. Sir William Crookes of the
>>British Society for Psychical Research, once saw Home
>>pick up a hot coal as big as an orange and hold it
>>nonchalantly in both hands. Home even blew on the coal
>>until it became white hot and flames flickered around
>>his bare fingers. Crookes then inspected Home's hands
>>and affirmed that they did not appear to be specially
>>treated in any way - and showed absolutely no sign of
>>blistering, scarring or burning. Crookes remarked, in
>>fact, that Home's hands were as soft and delicate as
>>"a woman's." In yet another performance, Homes floated
>>out of a second-story window, paused, then floated
>>back inside to the utter astonishment of three
>>witnesses on the ground.
>>
>>The Incredible X-Ray
>>There's no hiding evil deeds from the Incredible X-Ray
>>whose penetrating X-ray vision sees all.
>>
>>Koda Box, a stage performer who billed himself as "The
>>Man with the X-Ray Eyes," astonished audiences in the
>>early 1900s. Box first allowed audience members to
>>completely blind him by putting coins over his eyes
>>and fastening them in place with adhesive tape. His
>>entire head was then bandaged in cloth, assuring
>>everyone that he could see nothing. He then proceeded
>>to read messages that audience participants had
>>written on paper. He could also read books and
>>accurately describe objects held up by members of the
>>audience. With is elaborate blindfold in place, Box
>>once even safely rode a bicycle through the busy
>>traffic of New York's Times Square.
>>
>>Microscopo and Telescopique
>>Like super-powerd human scientific instruments, these
>>heroes use their fantastic vision to see microscopic
>>details or great distances.
>>
>>Two gentlemen might share the title of Microsopo, both
>>having the ability to distinguish vinyl phonograph
>>records merely by looking at the grooves with their
>>unaided eyes! Alvah Mason first demonstrated this
>>talent in the 1930s, and more recently, Arthur
>>Lintgen, a resident of Philadelphia proved to none
>>other than The Amazing Randi that he could do the same
>>thing. Veronica Seider, a German dentist, apparently
>>had telescopic vision. In several demonstrations she
>>showed that she could identify people from more than a
>>mile distance. Seider also claimed that she could see
>>the individual red, green and blue dots that make up
>>the picture on a color television set.
>>
>>Medictron, the Healer
>>With the unknown force emanating from his miraculous
>>hands, Medictron has the power to heal all forms of
>>injuries and maladies.
>>
>>John D. Reese of Youngstown, Ohio never studied
>>medicine. In fact, it wasn't until he was about 30
>>years old that Reese discovered his remarkable if
>>latent power to heal. One day in 1887, an acquaintance
>>of Mr. Reese had fallen from a ladder and seriously
>>injured his spine - a "severe spinal strain" his
>>physician called it. Reese, for some reason, ran his
>>fingers up and down the man's back, immediately after
>>which the man announced that his pain had ceased
>>entirely. He got up and went back to work. Reese
>>likewise healed Hans Wagner, a shortstop for the
>>Pittsburgh Pirates, who had been carried from the
>>field with a back injury; he also instantly cured a
>>politician whose hand and wrist became useless to him
>>from so much handshaking. Doctors had told him he
>>needed weeks and weeks of rest. After his encounter
>>with Reese, he has perfectly fine.
>>How do we explain the abilities of these astounding
>>individuals? Are they conduits for some unimaginable
>>interdimensional power? Are they mere tricksters and
>>hoaxers? Or are they genetic mutants who, like the
>>X-Men, might be forerunners of the future of the human
>>race?
>>Well you dicide, if you have any more questions on the
>>paranormal or such like don't hesitate to ask.
>>Ade Bliss
>he he he
You say that there are real mutants? you have no idea.
