Scientists are sometimes surprised at the secrets stored in the human body. Sometimes in an extreme situation, a person is capable of something that is beyond his power in a normal situation. It is especially impressive that it is impossible to determine what physical capabilities are hidden in a person, where is their upper limit, and is it there?
Extreme situations
In a state of stress, people are able to express themselves in a way that does not happen in a calm environment. An episode is described how, during a fire, a certain young woman who had not been for a long time dragged out of her home a heavy glove box, which should better be called a chest. The most interesting thing happened later, when a group of men could not only lift it, but even move it. Or such an example. The young woman easily lifted the car and even kept it suspended until her child got to safety.
In a state of stress, a person manages to move at the speed of a car. It happened that people jumped from a great height and not only survived, but did not receive serious injuries, and even sometimes just got off with a slight fright. Of course, one can refer here to the fact that in such short periods of time, all the forces of the organism are mobilized, which, being intensively expended, provide a way out of the difficulty. But how then to explain the cases when a person was in the cold for a long time, and at the same time not only did not freeze to death, but did not even get hypothermia of the body?
There are many examples showing that it is sometimes impossible to define the boundaries of what people can do. And what is most important - no workouts are able to mobilize all the forces of the body. It is impossible to do the same in a normal setting.
Opportunities, or rather, superpowers of a person are studied by specialists. The only conclusion they make is that in a stressful situation, consciousness (or subconsciousness) works in a different mode. This mode instantly activates everything that is reserved in the body. Everything happens according to a well-designed program. A sharp and huge rush of adrenaline - and now a seemingly ordinary, average person literally works wonders.

But it happens that events develop in the opposite direction. An unforeseen situation - and the one who got into it is in a state of stupor. What is the reason for this? With the fact that everything is not always the same with the nervous system? Why? Such properties are inherent in genes, or is it the result of development in different conditions?
Deliberate acquisition of superpowers
While things that are done under stress cannot be done under normal circumstances, there are techniques that can be used to master some special abilities. Such methods have been worked out, and perhaps have survived from ancient times in the East. Through training, not only of the physical, but also of the spiritual plan, the followers of such methods, more precisely, the teachings, manage to learn, without harming their own health, to endure various tests that the unprepared is not capable of. Such followers of the teachings are capable of tens of minutes, or even hours, not breathing, not freezing, staying in the cold for a long time …
Among such special people are those who practice yoga. They are able to enter a special state of consciousness, while slowing down the life processes taking place in the body.
You can also remember the Tibetan lamas. Sometimes what they are capable of simply defies any explanation. For example, for several days without interruption, these hermits are able to walk, and quite quickly. The ability of their own thermoregulation is also available to them. Being at subzero temperatures and having clothes on them that are suitable only for summer conditions, they not only do not freeze, but also manage to dry a wet raincoat or other piece of clothing on their own bodies.
This ability is called "tumo" and it ensures survival in the cold mountains. The most spectacular, highlighting the achievement of a high level, is the ability, sitting on a stone, to melt snow next to oneself. So much so that the radius of the resulting thawed circle reaches a meter, or even more.
"Iron shirt" - this technique became known to Europeans only after they had managed to settle down a little in Asian countries. India and China are the territories where adept warriors could go into battle without armor. Their role was performed by their own body. It really became like an "iron shirt". Neither an arrow, nor a spear, nor a sword could pierce this pliable-looking flesh.
Oriental martial arts should also be remembered. The fighters who have reached high levels move so fast that even modern video equipment cannot record these movements.
Such abilities are the result of a long work on oneself. To develop them, various physical, including breathing, exercises are used. But only the physical plane is not enough. Consciousness training also takes a lot of time. In this case, a person gets the opportunity to control the work of his brain. His consciousness gives the brain a command to activate superpowers when required.
Creation of an artificial superman
Of course, the development of superpowers is of interest to the leadership of a number of countries. First of all, the military is concerned about this possibility. They need the perfect soldier. He will not be afraid of pain. He will not be harmed by enemy weapons. He himself will be a weapon.
Fascist Germany, the USSR, the USA - these are the countries where the problem of the super-soldier was to a greater extent dealt with. Of course, all this was a secret with seven seals. But still, some of the information leaked from closed laboratories. As it turned out, it was not possible to milk positive results. The use of implanted metal prostheses, the use of psychotropic drugs did not help. Even experiments in which people were crossed with animals did not help.
Why didn't the military succeed? They were just not looking for him there. The reserve that makes it possible to do what is considered impossible is in the people themselves. It can only be activated when under stress or after exhausting training led by an experienced mentor. Only then can consciousness control the work of the brain, which gives the command to the body to activate all its reserves.
