False he broke his physical limiter allowing him to not be stoped at a normal state that body builders have to deal with that is described as a hill that continues to get steeper as they improve so does the effort that it takes to improve. He then broke this making his power infinite because he has no limiter to stop him from improving.
not being able to feel pain doesnt make you go bald, it just makes it so that you cant tell if you broke a bone or touching something you shouldnt until the damage is done, you cant even tell when your sitting or standing if you closed your eyes
I have nerve damage in my left leg. At one point there was zero feeling except pain. I stepped on a tack and it stuck to the bottom of my foot. I didn't know that had happened till sometime later and I saw a small blood trail around the house. Thinking it was one of my dogs I cleaned and cleaned till the tack got caught on the rug and almost tripped me. It pulled the tack out and I had a nice hole in my heel down to the bone. Absolutely horrible thing to have
@@DrFranklynAnderson it's quite scary. Acupuncture helped me regain 80% of the feeling in my leg, but I still have most of my foot quite numb. So I have to check my foot daily to see if I stepped on something. Winter time is the worst for I have to be sure that my foot is warm enough my touching it with my hand. Then I have to wear a semi loose sock for my foot always feels like it's in a hot sandwich press with sandpaper rubbing it.
@@danthecreeper4760 mine has been going on for 15 years. Sleep? I haven't had a full night's sleep in that long until I completely crash out one to two times a month then I'll get 10-12 hours. I wish this on noone and I fully am sympathetic to anyone that has this. Good luck Dan. Be sure to eat anti-inflammatory foods shy away from sugars and alcohol does nothing for the pain.
My fiance actually has a superpower that could easily have made it on to this list. She has sound-colour synesthesia. She attributes having perfect pitch to this, and if she's tired when she's composing, she'll often ask me questions like "what's the green key called" (for the record, the green key is G Major). Sounds awesome, until you hit some of the more abstract concepts. When she can't listen to a song because "it sounds like drowning", for example. Or when she's talking to a mechanic, and can't describe the sound her engine's making, because, to her, it's just a yellow sound (if your engine sounds yellow, take it straight to the mechanic, by the way, 'cause it's serious). You can make her feel anxious by showing her a "noisy colour".
@@ebroks She hears it normally. I'd describe it as, think of how a sound can be blurry, and an image can also be blurry. Blurriness obviously means something different to the two things, but it's intuitive how they are comparable. To her, colour works the same way as blurriness does.
Oh my god! I have this too I never thought I’d see someone that also actually has it. So many people say that they do just to seem cool and it’s so annoying. I do a lot of the same things that you’ve said. I don’t have perfect pitch but it does help me tune my instruments by ear (eye?). I’m so excited to see someone else that has this or at least knows someone that does. Sorry for rambling dude but I wanted to ask, do voice colours change for her too? For me, peoples voices change colours a lot, apparently it has something to do with association with that colour which is probably why ppl that dye their hair a lot change to that colour. I know synesthesia is different for everyone so I was curious.
I really want the superpower to erase my own memories 9 times out of ten, it would suck But I could erase my memories of all the modern rogue episodes and get to watch them all over again
@@tuckerrichardson2606 My obsession with all things magic and tricky would make me find it again. If not, the dozen bookmarked modern rogue and scam school episodes would work as a reminder.
The sprains are awful, but imo the stomach problems are worse... 'Course I have excessive food allergies on top of the base hyper mobility... But having a diagnosis finally has changed so much of how I handle day to day life. If anyone even suspects they have it they should get checked, seriously it's worth knowing.
Real diseases with real downsides. But a lot of issues still appear even if you get a power with nothing else The issue with most traditional super powers is that you need a set for them to be functional. Super strength needs some kind of boost to durability or your bones will break when you try to do almost any feat of super human strength. Super speed gives a similar problem as well as friction. Wolverine's claws are going to get you infected without a healing factor, especially if you get them coated in toxic metal. *A* super power is almost never a good time.
fun facts 1: Wolverine's claw power is based on that of a spices of frog. 2: Wolverine's claws just cut through his skin to get out, much like the frog spices, except he doesn't need to break the bones in his fingers.
Lawrence Montgomery Even more so, you'd collect dust from the atmosphere, so you wouldn't even be totally invisible. This is assuming you don't turn stuff invisible by touching it.
Can you guys do this more often please. Just videos where you get a ability/situation/anything else you can have or be in and say how long youd want to have or be in it. For example you could ask how long you'd want to be in the matrix Edit:thx for the likes i just hope they see this
My sister has the first one. She just got a feeding tube put in yesterday. Also, it doesn’t “attack” those things, those are various variations of EDS.
I have extra sensitive ears, but it only happened because of a hearing disorder called Misophonia, so certain sounds make me enraged and I go into a fight or flight response. Great hearing, bad sounds.
I have sensory differences. For me sound and light isn't just uncomfortable, it is physically painful. I find some issue with making a person have to "push" through the pain so they can go do what other people think they should do. That is really unfair and what I'd call mistreatment. It is still painful, regardless if you can learn to manage the pain. What is a normal level of conversation for the average person sounds like what you would call a loud rock concert; it really hurts. Sound is a wave of disruption through some medium, such as through air, or an atmosphere like ours, or water. Sounds is commonly referred to in two ways: how loud it is (decibels) and the size of the wave (frequency), which we also call pitch. There is a decible exaplme chart at www.industrialnoisecontrol.com/comparative-noise-examples.htm. On this chart there are two decibel ranges I’d like to refer to: 60 and 110. 60: “Half as loud as 70 dB. Fairly quiet. Conversation in restaurant, office, background music, Air conditioning unit at 100 feet.”. 110: “Average human pain threshold. 16 times as loud as 70 dB. Steel mill, auto horn at 1 meter. Turbo-fan aircraft at takeoff power at 200 ft (118 dB). Riveting machine (110 dB); live rock music (108 - 114 dB).” I wanted to point out these two examples because as I mentioned before, what sounds like a normal conversation to me sounds like a rock concert to you. I am able to say this with confidence because at 110 decibels is when sound starts to hurt the average person, for me it starts to hurt at 60 decibels on an average day; some days are worse than others. That would mean on average I hear sound at about 32 times as loud as the average person. Like I said some days are worse than others. When ever I started to need to stim, the more I have to stim to more sensitive my sensory processing becomes. There have been times that at 40 decibels (“One-eighth as loud as 70 dB. Library, bird calls (44 dB); lowest limit of urban ambient sound”) sounds was too loud and started to hurt. During those times in which sound at 40 decibels starts to hurt me; that would make my hearing at around 64 times as loud as the average person. When ever I am in an area I can hear every little thing around me at once; this, ironically, makes it hard to hear what an individual is saying. There are so many sounds coming at me I can’t decipher where what is coming from sometimes, and when someone is trying to talk to me I can’t hear them over everything else going on around me. It is hard enough to carry on a conversation already, then with all the noise around me it can make it practically impossible. Light, oh boy. As a kid being outside, period, all I could see was white light. It wasn't till I was in my later years in high school I didn't need to wear sunglasses inside, though I still prefer to. Unless I'm in an isolated area in the middle of night (and I mean around 10pm-3pm, or else there is too much sunlight) I prefer to always be wearing my sunglasses. When ever I start getting close to a melt down any light is just like looking at bright white beams in my eyes. I have a black bandana I wear over my eyes like a blind fold and put my sunglasses over it and close my eyes. Even at night time that usually isn’t enough and the light still bothers me. Something people confuse is how light works. Photons are particles of light. In the day time there are more photons from the sun to light up the sky, which is why it is brighter during the day time. During the night time there are less photons so it is darker, but when photons are there they are still really bright. At night time it is like looking at a very contrasting picture. Where there is light there is alot, where this is not there simply isn't any light to be seen. Flashlights, or objects that illuminate in a similar fashion (like a phone, laser, or light bulb) have focused light, or in other words photons are focused in a specific area. During the day time, when directly at me, yes that is very bothersome and does does hurt, but because of the contrast at night it really hurts even more. It's like having a migraine in your eyes. When there isn't any extra light, at night is when I see best As far as taste, I can't have bitter things in my mouth. They make me want to throw up. I’m autistic, when ever I have to stim due to stress, outside what textured object I'm feeling, things, especially people, rubbing up against me or touching me is really uncomfortable and distressing. Tags on my clothes feel like knives on my skin and heat is a lot hotter for me. I wouldn't call these problems. In certain circumstances they make things difficult, but in others they help. I look at the sky and see where the atmosphere ends, I can see the physical curve of the earth in the sky. I can see light from stars no one else can. I can see every color of the night sky and how they all blend together. I can see details no else will ever see. I use my hearing subconsciously to help me know I'm breathing, I can hear everything around me so I use my ears to guide more than my eyes, using my ears I can "see and feel" everything around me. I can hear air move, and if I focus hard enough and hear my partner communicate in code using her nostrils to push out air so only I can hear her. I can see amazing things you can only imagine, hear everything and everyone, feel everything, and it is the best thing in the world. I live in a society not adapted for me. If it were back in hunter gather times living in woods I would of thrived so much better as opposed to all this sensory information around me all the time every day, and having to fit into a drame work where people sleep during the night and wake during the day when I am the opposite as sunlight and all the sensory overload is very taxing and tiring.
@@IsaacRoyer more comparable to daredevil, just without being blind. I understand how most people think if his powers as over exaggeration but his senses (other than vison of course) is pretty spot on. Relating to vision, though, I'm naturally more visually based than verbal based in processing and understanding information than most people, so creating 3-d maps is pretty easy in my head and how I experience memories is through all the information collected I can look it from a 3-d perspective and see the memory from points of view I didn't originally have so long I have the information gather and can fill in information. Because of the 3-d mapping and that I use my hearing and sense of touch alot in navigation, I can still see everything within about 15-30 yards max in any given direction without having to direct look in a given direction.
(1:58 - Tooms returned at the end of the season in episode 21"Tooms".) People with CIPA (congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis) not only have to be constantly vigilant of damage since they don't have the alarm of pain, but also can't sweat, so they're also in danger of dying from overheating. :-\
I have a rare bone disorder called Olliers in my legs that makes me have the inability to feel pain and temperature in my legs. After 18 correctional surgeries my legs are straight and I have the power to not feel the pain. Since my legs were bowed out for about 12 years before they were straight, my calf muscles flexed for that whole time I was walking. Now my calves are incredibly muscular, but im 5'4" with a 6"4" wingspan. Btw since I don't feel pain the body works in hyperdrive to heal that area, because the body uses pain as a resister to how fast it could heal. I had a 1.5cm wedge resection (told out bone) and I was told the bone would heal enough to walk in 4-5 months. 3 hours after my surgery I was up and walking. The doctors did a CT scan and the bone was completely healed and connected.
4-5 months down to 3 hours sounds like a lode of b.s. bud. I did a small bit of research and all the studies I've checked in the last 15 mins seem to say the opposite. Pain seems to not only speed up the healing process but strengthen the bonds of the new cells as well, because of the opioids released. Regardless of the exact science behind it, I'm positive that taking a wedge of your BONE out (that would normally require several months to heal) would not heal in 3 hours. I could possibly believe that it was CONNECTED on the two sides, but unless you can show actual evidence I deem this as best, an extreme exaggeration, and at worst; strait up fantasy.
Your hands are more sensitive than you think. You probably just don't use it or realize it. You can learn to feel things through practice with a deck of cards such as doing double lifts, pushoff second deals, riffle stacking, pinky count, or just cutting a certain number of cards. After alot of practice you will be able to feel the difference between single cards or what kind of stock and finish the cards have. It is probably used the most by cutting a deck in half 26 and 26, every time. It can be helpful not just for sleights but also convince.
@@nicholashodges201 I'm not shure how good that is for your skin health, but you can try it if you want. You could probably get the same effect using your jeans.
Denver Neal, your nerve endings on your fingers, can differentiate between, something that is an atom's width.. Meaning that everyone has extremely super sensitive hands, how to use that sensitivity is a whole other deal, that takes practice.
Not feeling the pain would be rather deservingly convenient for going out as Brian describes, which would be an incredibly badass act of such honorable proportions.
Honestly, the "not feeling fear" thing would actually be really helpful for new tasks, because how often have we screwed something up because we got nervous? How many times did we abort halfway through because we suddenly were afraid to keep going?
When I was 7 I could touch the back of my hand with my fingers (fold backwards till the nail touched the back of my hand) 12 years on struggle with writing for long periods of time. Hand writing is illegible if I dont spend ages to write perfectly. Cant play certain contact sports. In particular rugby and I broke my wrist as a goal keeper when the goalie kicked the ball across the pitch from his goal. Not fun great party tricks but not practical or fun in the real world. Here is a list of my main problems If you are interested. pain and stiffness in the joints and muscles(mainly at night( mainly knees and lower back)) clicking joints( all fingers, knees elbow, shoulders, jaw, right ankle) joints that dislocate easily(shoulder, jaw and hip) fatigue (extreme tiredness) recurrent injuries - such as sprains (only sprained my ankle twice because I attempt to avoid things that could cause it) thin or stretchy skin(lots of stretch marks not much you can do about it other than keep them out of the sun so they dont turn purple) Not to mention the added flexibility making writing difficult. I know it's not the worst disability in the world because you can work round lots of things and later on in life it doesn't make that big of a difference but when you are young there are lots of things you cant do.( basically anything that involves high impact, rugby, skydiving,bungee jump,etc. Anybody who has made it this far have a good day.😁
I have the same thing , we were doing flexibility exercises during dance and I was horsing around and something went wrong ,long story short I was getting alot of back pains and stuff and they checked and I found out my spine was slightly twisted due to a result of that accident, also if I bend down and let gravity take my arms they'll pop right outta the socket (yes I can put em back in )
@@nicoliivonov6946 Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS) most likely. I have it. I used to be able to touch my thumb nail to my arm. So, dont pull it down to the inside of your arm, go back, and touch the back/side of your arm. I can easily touch the inside of my arm with both my thumbs. Not the side anymore though. Every joint dislocates. I've somehow even sublexed??? my shoulder blades??? I was just in bed, relaxing. My ribs will move weird. The bones in my hands and feet will overlap. I can dislocate my left shoulder in every direction. Most joints hyperextende or dislocate if I dont use my muscles to hold them in the correct position. Party tricks: 1. I can put my arms behind my back, hold my hands, and pull them up to almost parallel to the ground, then I can go to a 90 degree wall corner, the outside, and press my arms into the corner, having my arms crossed behind my back. 2. I can have my feet in one direction and my shoulders in the opposite, about 180 degrees. 3. I can clasp my hands behind my back, rotate them so my palms are facing outward and use the wall to push my arms up to an obtuse angle. Anyways, I'm actually not supposed to do party tricks, because I can further damage my joints. I live in constant pain. And as I grow older, my joints will continue to wear and tear. Increasing my pain. I also have secondary illnesses. Mast Cell Activation syndrome (MCAS), dysautonomia, scoliosis, gastroparesis, ect. Those are the main ones. I'm allergic to all foods due to MCAS, and need special medications to be able to eat. Life is difficult, but I'm glad it's not worse. I have hEDS, hypermobile EDS. Some people have vascular, vEDS, is considered the most dangerous type. And I'm also glad I dont need spinal fusions or a feeding tube, yet. I might need them 5 to 10 years in the future. If you want to learn more, you can visit the Ehlers Danlos society's website, or you can search "my eds vlog" on youtube. I recommend Christina Doherty (i think that's her last name?) Thanks for reading :)
I have an extremely good sense of smell, and it's helped me out a lot. I grew up in the woods, and as a kid I learned the smell of the elk, bear, etc. Saved me and my friends when we were young a couple of times, as I was able to smell a bear 3 times before I could see it, and often I could smell elk. Elk and bear have unique smells, and it's super useful to be able to tell when you should start heading the other direction before it's a problem. On the downside, I can unfortunately smell lots of butts just walking around, and even worse, when I work outside in the yard or something and I get sweaty and smelly, it becomes almost unbearable until I take a shower. I have often found myself in situations where I have remarked that I need a shower to close friends/family after hiking or something, and they have gotten quite perturbed by my seemingly insane hygiene regimen, when in reality, it's just because I can't stand the smell. Smelling last night's alcohol, onion consumption, etc are all very common as well.
@@ianthompson2802 Bear smells dirty, like rotting garbage and wet fur. Elk smells like old moss and antique wool. Elk smells a LOT like an unwashed horse, but more musty.
Jason, if you were fearless, you wouldn't fear hair loss... you'd embrace it. Also, guys. Thank you for bringing hypermobility to light. There are thousands of disorders where hypermobility is a symptom, and education is increasing every day.
I remember in the first X-men movie they did a nod to Wolverine's heightened sense of smell. When he and Storm (who was really Mystique posing as her) met up, he immediately recognized her as Mystique
I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome which is in the hypermobile syndrome. There are tremendous downsides. I am severely disabled. Thank you to the both of you for pointing out some of the downsides but you made them sound less severe than they are. The gastric issues, the pain, the heart issues at severely debilitating and because I 'look' healthy people tend to not understand how horribly this disease affects me. Thank you modern rogue for raising some awareness.
My fiancé has CIP and it’s honestly terrifying. I’ve seen him walk in while bleeding after being outside. He just, had no concept of it at all. It’s scares me knowing he won’t call a hospital if something happens because most of the time he doesn’t even know it happened. But, everyday I see him is a blessing.
1:53 I was diagnosed with that last year lol I don’t get headaches, and I don’t get migraines I don’t lose my balance. I love it, you can bend yourself so far, I can sit in an a4 box and fill the whole thing.
I mean, I'd take the power, just to get rid of constant joint pain due to my hyper mobility, I'd also take it so that I could start training again, due to constant pain, it's really hard to train, I haven't had a real work out in 15 years now, mind you I'm 27... I have constant pain everywhere, chest, head, limbs... and it's all due to connective tissue problems.
An old friend of mine had a pretty bad dirtbike accident in his teens that caused severe damage to his spinal cord. The only real result of it was he now feels minimal pain. Only things that would be very painful to a normal person actually register to him, and the pain is minimal for him. The downside to this is that pain, on its own, is a reminder that you're still alive. It can cause some pretty bad mental breaks and caused a lot of self-harming tendencies in him so that he could feel *something.* He would slice open his tongue with a chunk of a soda can that he would bite out of it, got into a "punch in the face" contest with his friend, only stopping because there was too much blood, and did a lot of hard drugs. He's better now, though, and got most of that out of his system, but still doesn't feel much pain anymore.
Brian I can one hundred percent say that feeling no pain absolutely sucks when I was like 12 years old I grabbed a pan from the oven and I literally cooked my hand and had no idea. The best part is I don't need oven mitts ever.
I'm absolutely inured to horror movies and jumpscare compilations. I flinch like once a year. Fireworks start when I'm not expecting them, stuff on that level. I was at a friend's house, there was a few bangs outside, he said "Bad neighborhood, they're just shooting guns." Just nodded, nothing. Louder boom, we both said "That's a shotgun." No flinch. Just 'Oh. Wait.' So yeah, no fear sucks. Flinching away from danger prevents injury. It's survival. If I'm ever unlucky enough, there'll be some danger, I'll look at it square in the face, and just barely get out 'Oh fu-' before it knocks my block off.
I have 3 chronic pain conditions. I've been in some amount of pain for over a decade. I'd 100% take no pain for about a month. I'd go on vacation and be extremely active in all the ways I can't now, just to have the beautiful memories. You always think you have time to do things, but you don't. And it's not that you're dead, you just physically can't so you always know what you're missing. I can't walk on the beach while my husband and son do, I couldn't get down and play with my son when he was little and about half my life has been missed completely because I wasn't able to go or participate. I just want a month to get some of my active bucket list done. (Carefully!)
Were-Busey!? Pure. Genius. When I first saw this video pop up I thought you'd be talking about actually super powers like Mr. Fantastic ore Dare Devil... actually in a way though you still are, just in a very literal sense. That lack of fear sounds most dangerous, sometimes the fear of something going wrong keeps you cautious and aware, without it you can get lazy and accidentally slip on stairs and break your neck because you didn't try to be careful or fall into a wood chipper because you just didn't care enough to not.
As someone who has joint hypermobility, I was in too much pain to walk for about a year because my muscles were not strong enough to handle me bending or standing. (When I stand straight my knees bend the wrong way) I also couldn't move my left arm either. So whenever I had a bad episode, I had to miss school for 2-3 weeks at a time and call my older brother to help me go to the bathroom. Ofc I had doctors notes, so I never got in trouble for missing so much school.
Super smell magic trick idea: have the audience take a small flower and hide it amongst them and the performer would pick out that person from the crowd from where they are standing and then also tell them what they are for breakfast and what perfume they're wearing. Would be pretty cool
There's plenty that they left out, so I'm hoping for a part 2. Super taste is one of them. From what I remember, the main down side is that it can make you a picky eater. This also doesn't mean all picky eaters have this, some people are just whiney. The flip side of that could be a power too though. The inability to taste. Granted, there's not much use for it, but you could probably win some bar bets. And about the last one. They mentioned broken ones, but it can be so much worse. Not knowing you have a ruptured organ, or an infected tooth, or a tumor, or stomach ulsers, spider bite. You could also eat too much, chew too hard, stretch too far. Having no pain for a short amount of time is fine, but everlasting is life threatening.
Tearing a phone book in half is an old strong man trick - it's not that hard to do. You can't be a wimp, but a reasonably strong man can do it with the right technique. Ditto all of those things like rolling up a skillet and the rest.
theres a kinda funny story about the whole not fealing pain power, 2 guys were like testing i think cocaine injected in the spine to see if the subject could feel any pain, he couldnt and to test it they broke his leg and uhm crushed some other semi important parts. just search for august bier
I'd love to have perfect eyesight. You know, everything's sharp all the time, details at range are visible, maybe zoom. Night vision and seeing other frequencies might also be kind of cool
My dumb superpower: A really flexible left shoulder. I can place the back of my hand on my ribcage and point my elbow straight forwards, and can reach pretty much anywhere not on my left arm with my left hand. Upsides: I can scratch any itch and give my back a good scrub in the shower. Also occasionally useful for carrying stuff, since I can more easily wrap my arm around bigger things. Downsides: The joint's pretty loose, so it tends to slip around on the edge of actually being in the socket right. Push ups and pull ups were a pain until I built up enough muscle and figured out how to hold it in the right place. Before then either one was me trying to support my weight with a solid joint on one side and soft tissue on the other. It also dislocates or nearly dislocates a fair amount, which can hurt quite a bit, and it's easy to accidentally pull a muscle bending the wrong way. The bone and cartilage are probably quite a bit more worn than they should be at my age.
How about the ability to see the path to victory for any task and execute it perfectly, or the ability to understand numbers so well you intuitively solve physics moment to moment and predict everything.
I have a friend who lacks fear. We were teaching in Columbia and he decided to ask for directions in a narco run bar. I stood at the door terrified and he just walked in and chatted with the bartender cracked a couple of jokes, (he's also flamboyantly gay in a macho situation) got what he needed and walked out. I swear to god, every man in that bar had a shellshocked look on their faces as they watched him walk out. I realized after why they looked so shaken. These are men used to people being afraid of them. They live and die by knowing who is afraid, and who isn't. Having someone show absolutely no fear, so brazenly violating their social norms without an ounce of challenge or bravado laughing and smiling was so far out of their normal experience that it unbalanced them... Someone who has no fear in their world is someone to be wary of.
Here's a kinda weird question: Does super bendy result in joint pain or joint injuries? I'm thinking being capable of super flexible things doesn't necessarily mean your body is built to handle that kinda stress, could just mean you don't feel the damage being done until much later
Mmm... Delicious I can touch my hands flat to the floor and put my legs behind my neck. I don't do it because later in the day it will just hurt. You also kinda hurt when you don't stretch for a while and you have to stretch very extremely. Idk why but it kinda sucks tbh
They talk about the absence of fear. I’ve lived with hyper paranoia (undiagnosed) all my life. It’s very rare that I’m not thinking “what’s in there/behind me”
Just wanted to point this out; 'not having fear' is not synonymous with 'being stupid.' A person can assess risks and dangers accurately without being afraid of them.
I have something called Marfan Syndrome, a connective tissue dissorder. It sucks. Had to have aortic route replacement at the age of 11. Here are some of the issues it causes. -Hypermobility -Causes a lot of joint pain. -At risk of lense dislocation in the eyes if i get a hard hit in the head -In general, it is easier to dislocate a limb -At larger risk of "Aortic Dissection", which is basically the aortic route bursting due to excessive pressure. TLDR: It sucks.
Fun fact on that indestructible bone thing, Brian asked if there's a regimen to harden your bones, and there is. Many martial artists fracture or nearly fracture their bones to strengthen them, this is because whenever a bone is repaired after fracturing the bone grows back stronger and harder... reportedly at least
To experience roller coasters and be bored on them, just work for an amusement park. I've worked at Cedar Point for 3 years now. I can fall asleep on any ride except for Dragster, Maverick, and Steel Vengeance. It's actually sad, because I used to love roller coasters. Now it takes a lot to get me excited for them...
The ancient Egyptians used to break the forearms of their guards, and then let them heal, and then repeat. The reason being that each time their forearms healed, they would be stronger than before, so the guards would eventually have nightsticks for arms.
If you were invisible you couldn't see. For you to see, light goes into your eyes, if you are fully invisible then light goes straight through your eyes. You would basically have the ability of "If I can't see you, you can't see me".
I don't want my ability to feel pain to go away completely, but rather just have it hurt initially, but then once I've acknowledged the damage it stops hurting instead of continuing to make me suffer.
I can actually speak on the 'not experiencing pain' as that had been apart of my life for the greater part of 12 years. When I was born, I had something akin to CIP (Congenital Insensitivity to Pain) in that I just didn't understand pain. My parents and the doctors didn't necessarily know about this. How, exactly, we found out was when I was around 6-7 and was in the process of helping my mother cook chili. The can of kidney beans got knocked off of the countertop (my fault) and fell on my foot. I simply picked it up and continued as normal, but noticed that I was limping. When my mother looked, she saw that my foot was several shades of purple. One doctor visit later, turns out I had broken my foot... and didn't even feel the fact that it was broken. Reason I didn't feel that was because my nerves were rather heavily dulled. I could feel things but the little signal of 'hey, this hurts' just didn't travel. I forget the exact diagnosis, but I do remember the treatment prescribed. Several physical therapists, and one of the earliest forms was waking my nerves up to pain. Aka, wire brush, running my hands through beans/rice, etc. The 'normal' ways of kickstarting feeling. Coarse to fine. Here I am now, I can actually feel pain and sensations but they're... duller. I have a higher tolerance to pain and heat. Often enough I'm walking two-three days after a bad sprain with little more than an annoying ache. When, in reality, I probably shouldn't have been walking around normally for a few **weeks**.
I came back after months and i still love speedball. He's just hilarious. The fact that he goes flying if he sprays his lil bouncy bubbles at a wall is comedy gold.
I have this thing where I don't feel pain in my feet. Like, they're not numb, I just don't feel pain in them. When I played football, one of my teammates accidentally stepped on my bare foot while wearing cleats, right before kickoff. It took him a second to realize and apologize profusely, before realizing I wasn't in pain. "Didn't that hurt?" "Nah, not really." Also, little known fact: Were-Buseys are humanity's only natural defense against the changelings.

I have nerve damage in my left leg. At one point there was zero feeling except pain. I stepped on a tack and it stuck to the bottom of my foot. I didn't know that had happened till sometime later and I saw a small blood trail around the house. Thinking it was one of my dogs I cleaned and cleaned till the tack got caught on the rug and almost tripped me. It pulled the tack out and I had a nice hole in my heel down to the bone. Absolutely horrible thing to have
That is fucking horrifying
Same with my paralysis. I sat too close to a space heater for a while once and got a nice big burn blister on my leg. Didn’t feel a thing.
@@DrFranklynAnderson it's quite scary. Acupuncture helped me regain 80% of the feeling in my leg, but I still have most of my foot quite numb. So I have to check my foot daily to see if I stepped on something. Winter time is the worst for I have to be sure that my foot is warm enough my touching it with my hand. Then I have to wear a semi loose sock for my foot always feels like it's in a hot sandwich press with sandpaper rubbing it.

My fiance actually has a superpower that could easily have made it on to this list. She has sound-colour synesthesia.
She attributes having perfect pitch to this, and if she's tired when she's composing, she'll often ask me questions like "what's the green key called" (for the record, the green key is G Major).
Sounds awesome, until you hit some of the more abstract concepts. When she can't listen to a song because "it sounds like drowning", for example. Or when she's talking to a mechanic, and can't describe the sound her engine's making, because, to her, it's just a yellow sound (if your engine sounds yellow, take it straight to the mechanic, by the way, 'cause it's serious). You can make her feel anxious by showing her a "noisy colour".
Can she hear sounds normally? Or is she essentially deaf and just sees the colour of the sounds
@@ebroks She hears it normally.
I'd describe it as, think of how a sound can be blurry, and an image can also be blurry. Blurriness obviously means something different to the two things, but it's intuitive how they are comparable. To her, colour works the same way as blurriness does.
Hey, I have Chromesthesia!
Oh my god! I have this too I never thought I’d see someone that also actually has it. So many people say that they do just to seem cool and it’s so annoying. I do a lot of the same things that you’ve said. I don’t have perfect pitch but it does help me tune my instruments by ear (eye?). I’m so excited to see someone else that has this or at least knows someone that does. Sorry for rambling dude but I wanted to ask, do voice colours change for her too? For me, peoples voices change colours a lot, apparently it has something to do with association with that colour which is probably why ppl that dye their hair a lot change to that colour. I know synesthesia is different for everyone so I was curious.

Real diseases with real downsides. But a lot of issues still appear even if you get a power with nothing else
The issue with most traditional super powers is that you need a set for them to be functional.
Super strength needs some kind of boost to durability or your bones will break when you try to do almost any feat of super human strength.
Super speed gives a similar problem as well as friction.
Wolverine's claws are going to get you infected without a healing factor, especially if you get them coated in toxic metal.
*A* super power is almost never a good time.
How about energy absorption? Absorb as much as you want and have more energy or boost your bodies abilities.
invisibility makes your eyes invisible, thus making you blind but invisible
@@malcomjohnson7093 I guess it depends on how you can redirect the energy and what types of energy you can absorb.

1: Wolverine's claw power is based on that of a spices of frog.
2: Wolverine's claws just cut through his skin to get out, much like the frog spices, except he doesn't need to break the bones in his fingers.

@@johnfrancis3203 thanks man I needed that
I have extra sensitive ears, but it only happened because of a hearing disorder called Misophonia, so certain sounds make me enraged and I go into a fight or flight response. Great hearing, bad sounds.
How are you with music?
I had the same thing but with chewing for about 4 years, I fucking hated that sounds so much
I have sensory differences. For me sound and light isn't just uncomfortable, it is physically painful. I find some issue with making a person have to "push" through the pain so they can go do what other people think they should do. That is really unfair and what I'd call mistreatment. It is still painful, regardless if you can learn to manage the pain.
What is a normal level of conversation for the average person sounds like what you would call a loud rock concert; it really hurts. Sound is a wave of disruption through some medium, such as through air, or an atmosphere like ours, or water. Sounds is commonly referred to in two ways: how loud it is (decibels) and the size of the wave (frequency), which we also call pitch.
There is a decible exaplme chart at www.industrialnoisecontrol.com/comparative-noise-examples.htm. On this chart there are two decibel ranges I’d like to refer to: 60 and 110. 60: “Half as loud as 70 dB. Fairly quiet. Conversation in restaurant, office, background music, Air conditioning unit at 100 feet.”. 110: “Average human pain threshold. 16 times as loud as 70 dB. Steel mill, auto horn at 1 meter. Turbo-fan aircraft at takeoff power at 200 ft (118 dB). Riveting machine (110 dB); live rock music (108 - 114 dB).” I wanted to point out these two examples because as I mentioned before, what sounds like a normal conversation to me sounds like a rock concert to you.
I am able to say this with confidence because at 110 decibels is when sound starts to hurt the average person, for me it starts to hurt at 60 decibels on an average day; some days are worse than others. That would mean on average I hear sound at about 32 times as loud as the average person. Like I said some days are worse than others. When ever I started to need to stim, the more I have to stim to more sensitive my sensory processing becomes. There have been times that at 40 decibels (“One-eighth as loud as 70 dB. Library, bird calls (44 dB); lowest limit of urban ambient sound”) sounds was too loud and started to hurt. During those times in which sound at 40 decibels starts to hurt me; that would make my hearing at around 64 times as loud as the average person.
When ever I am in an area I can hear every little thing around me at once; this, ironically, makes it hard to hear what an individual is saying. There are so many sounds coming at me I can’t decipher where what is coming from sometimes, and when someone is trying to talk to me I can’t hear them over everything else going on around me. It is hard enough to carry on a conversation already, then with all the noise around me it can make it practically impossible.
Light, oh boy. As a kid being outside, period, all I could see was white light. It wasn't till I was in my later years in high school I didn't need to wear sunglasses inside, though I still prefer to. Unless I'm in an isolated area in the middle of night (and I mean around 10pm-3pm, or else there is too much sunlight) I prefer to always be wearing my sunglasses. When ever I start getting close to a melt down any light is just like looking at bright white beams in my eyes. I have a black bandana I wear over my eyes like a blind fold and put my sunglasses over it and close my eyes. Even at night time that usually isn’t enough and the light still bothers me.
Something people confuse is how light works. Photons are particles of light. In the day time there are more photons from the sun to light up the sky, which is why it is brighter during the day time. During the night time there are less photons so it is darker, but when photons are there they are still really bright. At night time it is like looking at a very contrasting picture. Where there is light there is alot, where this is not there simply isn't any light to be seen. Flashlights, or objects that illuminate in a similar fashion (like a phone, laser, or light bulb) have focused light, or in other words photons are focused in a specific area. During the day time, when directly at me, yes that is very bothersome and does does hurt, but because of the contrast at night it really hurts even more. It's like having a migraine in your eyes. When there isn't any extra light, at night is when I see best
As far as taste, I can't have bitter things in my mouth. They make me want to throw up. I’m autistic, when ever I have to stim due to stress, outside what textured object I'm feeling, things, especially people, rubbing up against me or touching me is really uncomfortable and distressing. Tags on my clothes feel like knives on my skin and heat is a lot hotter for me.
I wouldn't call these problems. In certain circumstances they make things difficult, but in others they help. I look at the sky and see where the atmosphere ends, I can see the physical curve of the earth in the sky. I can see light from stars no one else can. I can see every color of the night sky and how they all blend together. I can see details no else will ever see. I use my hearing subconsciously to help me know I'm breathing, I can hear everything around me so I use my ears to guide more than my eyes, using my ears I can "see and feel" everything around me. I can hear air move, and if I focus hard enough and hear my partner communicate in code using her nostrils to push out air so only I can hear her. I can see amazing things you can only imagine, hear everything and everyone, feel everything, and it is the best thing in the world. I live in a society not adapted for me. If it were back in hunter gather times living in woods I would of thrived so much better as opposed to all this sensory information around me all the time every day, and having to fit into a drame work where people sleep during the night and wake during the day when I am the opposite as sunlight and all the sensory overload is very taxing and tiring.
@@kaiceecrane3884 Superman? Is that you?
@@IsaacRoyer more comparable to daredevil, just without being blind. I understand how most people think if his powers as over exaggeration but his senses (other than vison of course) is pretty spot on. Relating to vision, though, I'm naturally more visually based than verbal based in processing and understanding information than most people, so creating 3-d maps is pretty easy in my head and how I experience memories is through all the information collected I can look it from a 3-d perspective and see the memory from points of view I didn't originally have so long I have the information gather and can fill in information. Because of the 3-d mapping and that I use my hearing and sense of touch alot in navigation, I can still see everything within about 15-30 yards max in any given direction without having to direct look in a given direction.

People with CIPA (congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis) not only have to be constantly vigilant of damage since they don't have the alarm of pain, but also can't sweat, so they're also in danger of dying from overheating. :-\
I have a rare bone disorder called Olliers in my legs that makes me have the inability to feel pain and temperature in my legs. After 18 correctional surgeries my legs are straight and I have the power to not feel the pain. Since my legs were bowed out for about 12 years before they were straight, my calf muscles flexed for that whole time I was walking. Now my calves are incredibly muscular, but im 5'4" with a 6"4" wingspan. Btw since I don't feel pain the body works in hyperdrive to heal that area, because the body uses pain as a resister to how fast it could heal. I had a 1.5cm wedge resection (told out bone) and I was told the bone would heal enough to walk in 4-5 months. 3 hours after my surgery I was up and walking. The doctors did a CT scan and the bone was completely healed and connected.
That's fuckin awesome!
4-5 months down to 3 hours sounds like a lode of b.s. bud. I did a small bit of research and all the studies I've checked in the last 15 mins seem to say the opposite. Pain seems to not only speed up the healing process but strengthen the bonds of the new cells as well, because of the opioids released.
Regardless of the exact science behind it, I'm positive that taking a wedge of your BONE out (that would normally require several months to heal) would not heal in 3 hours. I could possibly believe that it was CONNECTED on the two sides, but unless you can show actual evidence I deem this as best, an extreme exaggeration, and at worst; strait up fantasy.
I’m sorry deadpool
Super power I don’t want that Brian has.... super sensitive hands
Your hands are more sensitive than you think. You probably just don't use it or realize it. You can learn to feel things through practice with a deck of cards such as doing double lifts, pushoff second deals, riffle stacking, pinky count, or just cutting a certain number of cards. After alot of practice you will be able to feel the difference between single cards or what kind of stock and finish the cards have. It is probably used the most by cutting a deck in half 26 and 26, every time. It can be helpful not just for sleights but also convince.
@@nicholashodges201 I'm not shure how good that is for your skin health, but you can try it if you want. You could probably get the same effect using your jeans.

When I was 7 I could touch the back of my hand with my fingers (fold backwards till the nail touched the back of my hand) 12 years on struggle with writing for long periods of time. Hand writing is illegible if I dont spend ages to write perfectly.
Cant play certain contact sports. In particular rugby and I broke my wrist as a goal keeper when the goalie kicked the ball across the pitch from his goal.
Not fun great party tricks but not practical or fun in the real world.
Here is a list of my main problems If you are interested.
pain and stiffness in the joints and muscles(mainly at night( mainly knees and lower back))
clicking joints( all fingers, knees elbow, shoulders, jaw, right ankle)
joints that dislocate easily(shoulder, jaw and hip)
fatigue (extreme tiredness)
recurrent injuries - such as sprains (only sprained my ankle twice because I attempt to avoid things that could cause it)
thin or stretchy skin(lots of stretch marks not much you can do about it other than keep them out of the sun so they dont turn purple)
Not to mention the added flexibility making writing difficult.
I know it's not the worst disability in the world because you can work round lots of things and later on in life it doesn't make that big of a difference but when you are young there are lots of things you cant do.( basically anything that involves high impact, rugby, skydiving,bungee jump,etc.
Anybody who has made it this far have a good day.😁
What is it called
I have the same thing , we were doing flexibility exercises during dance and I was horsing around and something went wrong ,long story short I was getting alot of back pains and stuff and they checked and I found out my spine was slightly twisted due to a result of that accident, also if I bend down and let gravity take my arms they'll pop right outta the socket (yes I can put em back in )
@@nicoliivonov6946 Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS) most likely. I have it. I used to be able to touch my thumb nail to my arm. So, dont pull it down to the inside of your arm, go back, and touch the back/side of your arm.
I can easily touch the inside of my arm with both my thumbs. Not the side anymore though.
Every joint dislocates. I've somehow even sublexed??? my shoulder blades??? I was just in bed, relaxing. My ribs will move weird. The bones in my hands and feet will overlap. I can dislocate my left shoulder in every direction. Most joints hyperextende or dislocate if I dont use my muscles to hold them in the correct position.
Party tricks:
1. I can put my arms behind my back, hold my hands, and pull them up to almost parallel to the ground, then I can go to a 90 degree wall corner, the outside, and press my arms into the corner, having my arms crossed behind my back.
2. I can have my feet in one direction and my shoulders in the opposite, about 180 degrees.
3. I can clasp my hands behind my back, rotate them so my palms are facing outward and use the wall to push my arms up to an obtuse angle.
Anyways, I'm actually not supposed to do party tricks, because I can further damage my joints.
I live in constant pain. And as I grow older, my joints will continue to wear and tear. Increasing my pain. I also have secondary illnesses. Mast Cell Activation syndrome (MCAS), dysautonomia, scoliosis, gastroparesis, ect. Those are the main ones. I'm allergic to all foods due to MCAS, and need special medications to be able to eat.
Life is difficult, but I'm glad it's not worse. I have hEDS, hypermobile EDS. Some people have vascular, vEDS, is considered the most dangerous type. And I'm also glad I dont need spinal fusions or a feeding tube, yet. I might need them 5 to 10 years in the future.
If you want to learn more, you can visit the Ehlers Danlos society's website, or you can search "my eds vlog" on youtube. I recommend Christina Doherty (i think that's her last name?)

I have an extremely good sense of smell, and it's helped me out a lot. I grew up in the woods, and as a kid I learned the smell of the elk, bear, etc. Saved me and my friends when we were young a couple of times, as I was able to smell a bear 3 times before I could see it, and often I could smell elk. Elk and bear have unique smells, and it's super useful to be able to tell when you should start heading the other direction before it's a problem.
On the downside, I can unfortunately smell lots of butts just walking around, and even worse, when I work outside in the yard or something and I get sweaty and smelly, it becomes almost unbearable until I take a shower. I have often found myself in situations where I have remarked that I need a shower to close friends/family after hiking or something, and they have gotten quite perturbed by my seemingly insane hygiene regimen, when in reality, it's just because I can't stand the smell. Smelling last night's alcohol, onion consumption, etc are all very common as well.

An old friend of mine had a pretty bad dirtbike accident in his teens that caused severe damage to his spinal cord. The only real result of it was he now feels minimal pain. Only things that would be very painful to a normal person actually register to him, and the pain is minimal for him.
The downside to this is that pain, on its own, is a reminder that you're still alive. It can cause some pretty bad mental breaks and caused a lot of self-harming tendencies in him so that he could feel *something.* He would slice open his tongue with a chunk of a soda can that he would bite out of it, got into a "punch in the face" contest with his friend, only stopping because there was too much blood, and did a lot of hard drugs.

Brian I can one hundred percent say that feeling no pain absolutely sucks when I was like 12 years old I grabbed a pan from the oven and I literally cooked my hand and had no idea. The best part is I don't need oven mitts ever.
Actually you can contract the "lack of fear" and "lack of pain" ones.
Both from certain kinds of injury sustained.
I think they are also possible to temporarily achieve with significant amount of drug overdose, also along with all the side effects of that.
I'm absolutely inured to horror movies and jumpscare compilations. I flinch like once a year. Fireworks start when I'm not expecting them, stuff on that level. I was at a friend's house, there was a few bangs outside, he said "Bad neighborhood, they're just shooting guns." Just nodded, nothing. Louder boom, we both said "That's a shotgun." No flinch. Just 'Oh. Wait.' So yeah, no fear sucks. Flinching away from danger prevents injury. It's survival. If I'm ever unlucky enough, there'll be some danger, I'll look at it square in the face, and just barely get out 'Oh fu-' before it knocks my block off.
I am never not entertained by these two goofballs. 😁 I hope they're around for many years to come.
I have 3 chronic pain conditions. I've been in some amount of pain for over a decade. I'd 100% take no pain for about a month. I'd go on vacation and be extremely active in all the ways I can't now, just to have the beautiful memories. You always think you have time to do things, but you don't. And it's not that you're dead, you just physically can't so you always know what you're missing. I can't walk on the beach while my husband and son do, I couldn't get down and play with my son when he was little and about half my life has been missed completely because I wasn't able to go or participate. I just want a month to get some of my active bucket list done. (Carefully!)
Matter Eater Lad
His power was he could eat anything. Thats it.
Were-Busey!? Pure. Genius. When I first saw this video pop up I thought you'd be talking about actually super powers like Mr. Fantastic ore Dare Devil... actually in a way though you still are, just in a very literal sense. That lack of fear sounds most dangerous, sometimes the fear of something going wrong keeps you cautious and aware, without it you can get lazy and accidentally slip on stairs and break your neck because you didn't try to be careful or fall into a wood chipper because you just didn't care enough to not.
Jason: "I wouldn't want to spend anytime with hypermobility!"
Me: "Oh boy I have to live with this for the rest of my life!"
Same
As someone who has joint hypermobility, I was in too much pain to walk for about a year because my muscles were not strong enough to handle me bending or standing. (When I stand straight my knees bend the wrong way) I also couldn't move my left arm either. So whenever I had a bad episode, I had to miss school for 2-3 weeks at a time and call my older brother to help me go to the bathroom. Ofc I had doctors notes, so I never got in trouble for missing so much school.
Looks up arm fall off boy....
I'll be damned
Super smell magic trick idea: have the audience take a small flower and hide it amongst them and the performer would pick out that person from the crowd from where they are standing and then also tell them what they are for breakfast and what perfume they're wearing. Would be pretty cool
No injury counter this episode I’m impressed
Spoiler Alert!
There's plenty that they left out, so I'm hoping for a part 2.
Super taste is one of them. From what I remember, the main down side is that it can make you a picky eater. This also doesn't mean all picky eaters have this, some people are just whiney.
The flip side of that could be a power too though. The inability to taste. Granted, there's not much use for it, but you could probably win some bar bets.
And about the last one. They mentioned broken ones, but it can be so much worse. Not knowing you have a ruptured organ, or an infected tooth, or a tumor, or stomach ulsers, spider bite. You could also eat too much, chew too hard, stretch too far. Having no pain for a short amount of time is fine, but everlasting is life threatening.
No pain+no fear=best secret agent next to Bond
not really you'd kinda be the worst.
because you'd be dead.
I think the no pain and no fear would go hand in hand, if you don't feel pain then what do you have to fear?
@@nicoliivonov6946 There would be so much to fear, like not knowing whether something is a minor injury or whether or not a hospital is needed.
I would think fear can be a useful tool in assessing a situation
a fearless person might act reckless
@@RyuzakiReaper That's the type of thing that would scare me if I couldn't feel pain.
Tearing a phone book in half is an old strong man trick - it's not that hard to do. You can't be a wimp, but a reasonably strong man can do it with the right technique. Ditto all of those things like rolling up a skillet and the rest.
1:00 “I’ve got a complete run of Speed Ball”
So you’re saying you have a 「Speed Ball Run」 ?
*JOJO SENSES INTENSIFY*
Ayayayayayyayayaya!!! Awaken my masters!!!!
*D4C* *intensifies*
6:48 Best reaction ever.
theres a kinda funny story about the whole not fealing pain power, 2 guys were like testing i think cocaine injected in the spine to see if the subject could feel any pain, he couldnt and to test it they broke his leg and uhm crushed some other semi important parts. just search for august bier
I learned that on wtf101
@@bishop8958 hmmmmm i wonder where i may have heard about it... correlation does not equal causation?
I'd love to have perfect eyesight. You know, everything's sharp all the time, details at range are visible, maybe zoom. Night vision and seeing other frequencies might also be kind of cool
Find: "superpower"
Replace with: "real medical conditions"
My dumb superpower: A really flexible left shoulder. I can place the back of my hand on my ribcage and point my elbow straight forwards, and can reach pretty much anywhere not on my left arm with my left hand.
Upsides: I can scratch any itch and give my back a good scrub in the shower. Also occasionally useful for carrying stuff, since I can more easily wrap my arm around bigger things.
Downsides: The joint's pretty loose, so it tends to slip around on the edge of actually being in the socket right. Push ups and pull ups were a pain until I built up enough muscle and figured out how to hold it in the right place. Before then either one was me trying to support my weight with a solid joint on one side and soft tissue on the other. It also dislocates or nearly dislocates a fair amount, which can hurt quite a bit, and it's easy to accidentally pull a muscle bending the wrong way. The bone and cartilage are probably quite a bit more worn than they should be at my age.
The undisputed best superpower is telekinesis
*Ring ring*
Hi, it's the power to rewrite reality here. Just checking in to say hi.
Nah I want mind reading.
How about the ability to see the path to victory for any task and execute it perfectly, or the ability to understand numbers so well you intuitively solve physics moment to moment and predict everything.
@@gayMath thats not fun. there's no challenge so who cares.
I have a friend who lacks fear. We were teaching in Columbia and he decided to ask for directions in a narco run bar. I stood at the door terrified and he just walked in and chatted with the bartender cracked a couple of jokes, (he's also flamboyantly gay in a macho situation) got what he needed and walked out.
I swear to god, every man in that bar had a shellshocked look on their faces as they watched him walk out.
I realized after why they looked so shaken.
These are men used to people being afraid of them. They live and die by knowing who is afraid, and who isn't.
Having someone show absolutely no fear, so brazenly violating their social norms without an ounce of challenge or bravado laughing and smiling was so far out of their normal experience that it unbalanced them... Someone who has no fear in their world is someone to be wary of.
Am super bendy. I hate it. 0/10 would not recommend
Here's a kinda weird question: Does super bendy result in joint pain or joint injuries? I'm thinking being capable of super flexible things doesn't necessarily mean your body is built to handle that kinda stress, could just mean you don't feel the damage being done until much later
Mmm... Delicious I can touch my hands flat to the floor and put my legs behind my neck. I don't do it because later in the day it will just hurt. You also kinda hurt when you don't stretch for a while and you have to stretch very extremely. Idk why but it kinda sucks tbh
They talk about the absence of fear. I’ve lived with hyper paranoia (undiagnosed) all my life. It’s very rare that I’m not thinking “what’s in there/behind me”
I actually gave the 400th like to this video. This feels weirdly significant.
Just wanted to point this out; 'not having fear' is not synonymous with 'being stupid.'
A person can assess risks and dangers accurately without being afraid of them.
I'm early so I wanted to say I love this channel!
I am actually an ex contortionist and I only stopped due to migraines. If I could do it without a worry of migraines I would still be doing it
Because Science did a whole series on why you wouldn't want superpowers, you guys should check it out.
“The absence of fear does not make one brave, but having that fear and the strength overcome it does, one without fear is sure to meet their demise”
Jason has a tanline on his forehead from his hairline. Just thought everyone should know.
I have something called Marfan Syndrome, a connective tissue dissorder. It sucks. Had to have aortic route replacement at the age of 11.
Here are some of the issues it causes.
-Hypermobility
-Causes a lot of joint pain.
-At risk of lense dislocation in the eyes if i get a hard hit in the head
-In general, it is easier to dislocate a limb
-At larger risk of "Aortic Dissection", which is basically the aortic route bursting due to excessive pressure.
TLDR: It sucks.
9:51 oh idk I only remember one... Wait what were we talking about 😂😂😂... Love you guys
Man I can not wait for the extended outtakes for this to come out
That is the best line ever " I wouldn't say I'm brave I'd say I'm Mr. Magoo"
I've fractured a bone without me knowing it was fractured until a month after it healed because the bone still looked off
Fun fact on that indestructible bone thing, Brian asked if there's a regimen to harden your bones, and there is. Many martial artists fracture or nearly fracture their bones to strengthen them, this is because whenever a bone is repaired after fracturing the bone grows back stronger and harder... reportedly at least
I forget how great this channel is. Nice work guys.
To experience roller coasters and be bored on them, just work for an amusement park. I've worked at Cedar Point for 3 years now. I can fall asleep on any ride except for Dragster, Maverick, and Steel Vengeance. It's actually sad, because I used to love roller coasters. Now it takes a lot to get me excited for them...
The ancient Egyptians used to break the forearms of their guards, and then let them heal, and then repeat. The reason being that each time their forearms healed, they would be stronger than before, so the guards would eventually have nightsticks for arms.
If true, that's a pretty badass fun fact. :D
Could definitely use a strong sense of smell for magic, *sniff sniff* Is this your card?!
If you were invisible you couldn't see. For you to see, light goes into your eyes, if you are fully invisible then light goes straight through your eyes. You would basically have the ability of "If I can't see you, you can't see me".
There is also those people that don't get tired, and those who never forget anything
I don't want my ability to feel pain to go away completely, but rather just have it hurt initially, but then once I've acknowledged the damage it stops hurting instead of continuing to make me suffer.
"can i follow people?"
We know your tricks cobra tmz! Youll never find president Kardashian!

I can actually speak on the 'not experiencing pain' as that had been apart of my life for the greater part of 12 years. When I was born, I had something akin to CIP (Congenital Insensitivity to Pain) in that I just didn't understand pain. My parents and the doctors didn't necessarily know about this.
How, exactly, we found out was when I was around 6-7 and was in the process of helping my mother cook chili. The can of kidney beans got knocked off of the countertop (my fault) and fell on my foot. I simply picked it up and continued as normal, but noticed that I was limping. When my mother looked, she saw that my foot was several shades of purple. One doctor visit later, turns out I had broken my foot... and didn't even feel the fact that it was broken. Reason I didn't feel that was because my nerves were rather heavily dulled. I could feel things but the little signal of 'hey, this hurts' just didn't travel.
I forget the exact diagnosis, but I do remember the treatment prescribed. Several physical therapists, and one of the earliest forms was waking my nerves up to pain. Aka, wire brush, running my hands through beans/rice, etc. The 'normal' ways of kickstarting feeling. Coarse to fine.
Here I am now, I can actually feel pain and sensations but they're... duller. I have a higher tolerance to pain and heat. Often enough I'm walking two-three days after a bad sprain with little more than an annoying ache. When, in reality, I probably shouldn't have been walking around normally for a few **weeks**.
I came back after months and i still love speedball. He's just hilarious. The fact that he goes flying if he sprays his lil bouncy bubbles at a wall is comedy gold.
I have this thing where I don't feel pain in my feet. Like, they're not numb, I just don't feel pain in them. When I played football, one of my teammates accidentally stepped on my bare foot while wearing cleats, right before kickoff. It took him a second to realize and apologize profusely, before realizing I wasn't in pain. "Didn't that hurt?" "Nah, not really."
Also, little known fact: Were-Buseys are humanity's only natural defense against the changelings.
