Swipe ⬅️ A small number of people possess rare genetic or neurological traits that grant them extraordinary abilities, real-life “superpowers” that science still struggles to fully explain. Some function normally on just four hours of sleep, others feel no pain due to FAAH deficiency, and certain women with tetrachromacy can perceive millions of extra colors. Other remarkable cases include unbreakable bones from LRP5 mutations, savant-like skills, super-recognizers with perfect face memory, and synesthetes who experience sounds as colors. While researchers have identified some associated genes and neural pathways, it remains unclear why these exceptional individuals emerge or who is likely to develop such traits. Their abilities reveal the hidden extremes of human biology and remind us how much we have yet to learn about our species’ potential. - #news #viral #interesting #pubity
