Strange things you can do (no one believes)

[RazorRaptor9]

I appear to be able to breath underwater. I can't on or off, and the only time I've done it was in 4th grade. I stayed under for to long, and knew I was going to gasp for air, when suddenly I breathed in and BAM, no water. Also, I've only done it twice, that I know of. I do seem to have a small cognitive ability. Not predicting numbers, or anything like that, but when there's two paths, I'm right 90% of the time.

 

[Quaxar]

I can crack my ears. I don't know how, and no one believes me until I do it.

Wait wtf. I do that all the time, I just assumed everyone does...

OT: I can predict health problems pretty well. Today again I got a perfect score. I'm the greatest.

I can touch my nose with my tounge

 

[bliebblob]

is this thread here to find x-men...

You can't prove anything!

 

[Dumori]

I can turn my emotions on and off at will.

I used to beable to do the same I kindo' broke my ability when I turned them off for an extended time. Now I just feel emotions way to much after a certien peak.

 

[AngloDoom]

I swear to God, with women I'm used to being in close-contact with, I can smell on their skin when they're on their periods. Or aroused.

Things get uncomfortable...

I can clench my head really hard and make my face go purple. I think it might restrict the blood supply or something. Then again, I'm sure that isn't unusual and loads of people can probably do it. I used to make my face go purple all the time through it, but i don't much now. It made me dizzy.

I've mentioned my Rubik's Cube talents, however if we were going for things to do with the body-

-I can put my arm behind my back far enough I can scratch the back of my head with that arm.
-I have excellent reflexes, even if something is falling in the very corner of my eye, I can usually catch it.
-I can turn my emotions on and off at will.
-I have excellent foot-eye coordination. Anything that needs done that doesn't require fingers, I can do with my feet.

The search bar couldn't find me anyting quite like this question so here goes.

Can you do something strange but nobody believes you because you can't prove it?
If so: frustrating isn't it? ^^ So here's your chance to vent.

I'll try to kick start things with some examples of my own.
I can make a very strong cold shiver run down my spine voluntarily. Not by thinking of something that gives me shivers, it's more like moving a finger. Nobody believes me though since only I feel it. And I can't think of any way to prove it besides maybe jagging a voltmeter into my spine.

I can actively remember my baby years, birth and even some time in the womb. It's just fragments though. Ofcourse nobody believes that because I can just make memories up since nobody really knows what goes on in a baby's head.

That's enough from me though. I'll add more if the thread takes off but this isn't the "look how awesome the OP is" thread. So let's hear it!

i can do that shiver thing too... its not cold, though. its like piss shivers without the piss

and the oldest memory i have is from when i was 1 year old and i was at the end of the hallway in my moms old house, and she wanted me to show her friend that i could count to ten in spanish. people say that you cant remember anything from before you were 3 or 4 years old, and normally i would agree, seeing as that is the only memory i have from before i was 4 or so.

i probably remember it because my mom used to have me do that all the time. maybe it reinforced the memory

Off topic: these new captchas are freaking ridiculous... i guess they arent aware that trivia questions arent answerable by EVERYONE

@person above, i can do all those things too cool. the reflex one especially. i remember once in 11th grade, me and a friend were bored in class, so we broke the little clip thing off of a mechanical pencil and used it to play a weird version of paper football. he was terrible at it, and he sent the clip sailing to my right over 10 times. i caught it every time, without looking at it. he was starting to get impressed lol

I held 2 cells and drank some normal bottled water that I had tachyonized for a few hours.

How, exactly, do you go about 'tachyonising' a bottle of water? Because I doubt it's very healthy for you, that high you're feeling may just be radiation poisoning.

Tachyon particles are SOOO small and go soo fast (THROUGH the earth's molicule gaps at NEAR the speed of light or faster) we don't have machines sophisticated enough to measure these particles. Perhaps when they built something smaller than a nano-meter or something that day will come.

Oh dear we've made a whoopsie. Tachyons are quantum particles, existing both as physical objects and electromagnetic waveforms depending on if they're observed. That being said, even while existing as particles they don't travel by speed in the same way we do, they exist as probability fields. However even with that, we as a race do have the ability to detect quantum particles, both using our eyes (light photons are quantum particles) and devices like photometres and colourometeres. Tachyons, on the other hand, violate many principles of current universal physics theories and very likely can't be detected because they don't exist.

Of course you'd know all of this if you just read the wikipedia page [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tachyon], which I really recomend you do in future before irradiating yourself or wasting thousands of [your currancy here] trying to detect something that's already being looked for by qualified scientists with millian dollar budgets.

Okay I thought a Tachyon was a subatomic particle that can break the speed of light but only in a vacuum? So how are you creating a vacuum for all this "tachyonising" or how do you do it? I also thought that a research group from Austrailia named KANGAROO (not kidding, that's what they call themselves) did discover it and although it's true that the human eye (when adapted to the dark) can detect a photon, I don't think you would see something traveling faster than 186,000 miles per second. Lastly, did you mean whether light is a wave or particle depends on HOW it's observed? Sorry that first bit confused me. This is why Wikipedia is NOT equal to a library.

I can keep goin all night, baby.

 

[SuperSuperSuperGuy]

I'm a magnificent shot with a handgun. I can point and click, and I'll hit my target. I don't really need to take time to line up.

Also, my ears are really sensitive to noise. I usually hear quiet noises that no one else does.

 

[Dan Steele]

I can tell what someone is thinking by observing they're facial expressions and body movement. Its like a sixth sense

 

[XegnoPure]

I have an amazing sense of direction, almost an internal compass that points to the main street of my town. Even in a different county, I'm able to recall the direction my home town is in.

Whenever I think of a part of a tv show, later in the day that exact episode will come on. This has happened about 50 times in my life. This also works sometimes with songs on the radio.

That happens to me all the time.
Surely there's a scientific explanation.

there actually is, there even is a scientific term for it. i just have forgotten what it is^^

here's the quick rundown: lets say you think of episode 42 of show x. later that day you turn on the tv, and what episode is on?! 23. nothing special and most likely you will never think about it again, forget that you thought about the episode and that was that.
however, when episode 42 would have been on, you would have thought: "duuuuude, how weird is this?" and remember the freak occurance for years.
so the times when you guess the right episode are in the normal statistical margin. it just seems incredible because you only remember the right "guesses" and therefore grossely misjudge the hit quota. god i wish i remember what the scientific term for that was, there surely must be a wikipedia-article about it..

I see, that's pretty much what I thought, I think.
Is it basically just that when you think of the episode and it's on, you remember that all the time but if you think of an episode that doesn't come on you forget. So you end up only remembering all the times the ones you thought of are on.
That's basically what you said, right?

 

[Pwny Express]

I have paradoxical powers. They only exist if I don't believe in them. ;D

 

[Russirishican]

I too am a prominent member of this club. I have almost at least one deja vu moment a day, and I can recall when, how, and where I had felt this before. It usually comes from dreams.

I can also write words and pictures in the air and then see them.

Do your ears twitch if you hear noises that aren't related to anything that's going on?
Like if you're in your room watching the TV and you hear a dog bark or something. Mine do.

I'm six feet tall and can kick someone in the head while in my boots.

 

[The Floating Nose]

Me and my twin brother have a telepathic link.

For example, i can think of a quote in a movie and then after a moment my brother will repeat that quote. At first i thought that it was just a coincidence but it happens soo often that it CAN'T be a coincidence and sometimes, it's the other way around. When it happens one of us always says: "i was thinking about the same thing !"
