1994 - Mauro Prosperi from Italy was discovered in the Sahara Desert. Incredibly, the man spent nine days in the sweltering heat but survived. Mauro Prosperi took part in the marathon race. Because of sandstorm he lost his way and got lost. Two days later he ran out of water. Mayro decided to open the veins, but it didn’t work out: due to the lack of water in the body, the blood began to clot very quickly. Nine days later, the athlete was found by a family of nomads; by this point, the marathon runner was practically unconscious and had lost 18 kg.

Nine o'clock at the bottom

The owner of the pleasure yacht, 32-year-old Roy Levin, his girlfriend, his cousin Ken, and most importantly, Ken’s wife, 25-year-old Susan. They all survived.
The yacht was calmly drifting under sail in the waters of the Gulf of California when clear skies a squall suddenly came. The yacht capsized. Susan, who was in the cabin at that time, sank along with the boat. It happened not far from the coast, but in a deserted place, and there were no eyewitnesses.

"It's incredible that the ship sank without being damaged," says salvor Bill Hutchison. And one more accident: while diving, the yacht turned over again, so that it lay on the bottom in a “normal” position. The “swimmers” who ended up overboard did not have life jackets or belts. But they were able to stay on the water for two hours until they were picked up by a passing boat. The owners of the boat contacted the coast guard, and a group of scuba divers was immediately sent to the scene of the disaster.

Several more hours passed.
“We knew that one passenger remained on board, but we did not expect to find her alive,” continues Bill. “You could only hope for a miracle.”

The portholes were tightly battened down, the cabin door was closed hermetically, but water still seeped in, thereby displacing the air. Woman from last bit of strength kept her head above the water - there was still an air gap right at the ceiling...

“As I looked out the window, I saw Susan’s chalk-white face,” says Bill. Almost 8 hours have passed since the disaster!”

It turned out to be impossible to free the unfortunate woman. simple matter. The yacht was at a depth of twenty meters, and handing over scuba gear to it would mean letting water inside. Something had to be done urgently. Bill went upstairs to get an oxygen tank. His colleagues indicated to Susan that she should hold her breath and open the salon door. She understood. But it turned out differently. The door opened, but a lifeless body in an elegant cocktail dress floated out. She still took some water into her lungs. Seconds counted. Bill picked up the woman and rushed to the surface. And I did! The doctor on the boat literally pulled Susan out of the other world.

Mechanic on the wing

1995, May 27 - during tactical maneuvers, the MiG-17, having left the runway and got stuck in the mud, ground service mechanic Pyotr Gorbanev and his comrades rushed to the rescue.
Through joint efforts they were able to push the plane onto the GDP. Freed from the dirt, the MiG began to quickly pick up speed and a minute later rose into the air, “grabbing” the mechanic, who was bent around the front part of the wing by the air flow.

While climbing, the fighter pilot felt that the plane was behaving strangely. Looking around, he saw a foreign object on the wing. The flight took place at night, and therefore it was not possible to see it. They gave advice from the ground to shake off the “foreign object” by maneuvering.

At this time, the silhouette on the wing seemed very similar to a person to the pilot, so he requested permission to land. The plane landed at 23:27, having been in the air for about half an hour.
All this time, Gorbanev was conscious on the wing of the fighter - he was held tightly by the oncoming air flow. After landing, they found out that the mechanic escaped with severe fright and two broken ribs.

In the arms of a tornado

Renee Truta survived after a terrible hurricane lifted her 240 meters into the air and 12 minutes later dropped her 18 kilometers from her home. As a result incredible adventure the unfortunate woman lost one ear, broke her arm, lost all her hair and received many small wounds.

“Everything happened so quickly that it seems to me that it was a dream,” Renee said after being discharged from the hospital on May 27, 1997. I was posing in front of the camera, and then something picked me up like a dry leaf. There was a noise like a freight train. I found myself in the air. Dirt, debris, sticks hit my body, and I felt a sharp pain in my right ear. I was lifted higher and higher, and I lost consciousness.”

When Renee Truta came to, she was lying on a hilltop 18 kilometers from her home. From above, a freshly plowed strip of land about sixty meters wide was visible - this was the work of the tornado.
Police said no one else in the area was injured by the tornado. As it turned out, similar cases have already happened. 1984 - near Frankfurt am Main (Germany), a tornado lifted 64 schoolchildren (!) into the air and dropped them unharmed 100 meters from the “take-off” site.

Great Hanging

The yogi hung on eight hooks hooked to the skin of his back and legs for a full 87 days - for a regular workout.
A yogi from the city of Bhopal, Ravi Varanasi, hanged himself quite deliberately, right in front of an astonished public. And when, three months later, he moved from a hanging position to a standing position, then, as if nothing had happened, he began to perform a set of physical exercises.

During the "great hanging" Ravi of Varanasi was one meter above the ground. To increase the effect, the students pierced the skin of his hands and tongue with needles. All this time, the yogi ate quite moderately - a handful of rice and a cup of water throughout the day. It hung in a structure that resembled a tent; when it rained, a tarpaulin was thrown over the wooden frame. Ravi willingly interacted with the public and was under surveillance German doctor Horst Groening.

“After hanging he remained in excellent physical fitness, says Dr. Groening. “It’s a pity that science still does not know the methodology of self-hypnosis, which is used by yogis to stop bleeding and relieve pain.”

Girl - night lamp

Nguyen Thi Nga is a resident of the small village of An Theong in Hoan An County in Binh Dinh Province (Vietnam). Until recently, both the village itself and Nguyen were not distinguished by anything special - a village like a village, a girl like a girl - she studied at school, helped her parents, and picked oranges and lemons with her friends from the surrounding plantations.

But 3 years ago, when Nguyen went to bed, her body began to glow brightly, as if phosphorescent. A huge halo enveloped the head, and golden-yellow rays began to emanate from the arms, legs and torso. In the morning they took the girl to the healers. They did some manipulations, but nothing helped. Then the parents took their daughter to Saigon, to the hospital. Nguyen was examined, but no abnormalities were found in her health.

It is unknown how this story could have ended if Nguyen had not been examined by the well-known healer Thang in those parts. He asked if the glow was bothering her. She replied that no, but that she was only worried about the incomprehensible fact that happened on the second day of the new year according to the lunar calendar.

“The most favorable time for the grace of the Almighty,” the healer reassured her. – At this time, God rewards what he deserves. And if you haven’t earned anything yet, then you will still deserve it.”
Returned to Nguyen peace of mind. But the glow remains...

Giantess from Krasnokutsk

Giants are rare in the world: per 1,000 people there are 3-5 over 190 centimeters tall. The height of Lisa Lysko, who lived in the last century, goes well beyond this limit...
Lisa's parents - residents of the provincial town of Krasnokutsk, Bogodukhovsky district, Kharkov province - were short stature. There were 7 children in the family. No one, except Lisa, was any different from their peers. Before three years old she grew up an ordinary child, but on the fourth it began to grow, one might say, by leaps and bounds. At seven years old, she rivaled adult women in weight and height, and by the age of 16 she was 226.2 cm tall and weighed 128 kg.

For a giantess, it would seem, more food is needed, and other requirements compared to an ordinary person hers are different. But nothing like this was observed in Lisa. She had a moderate appetite, sleep and behavior - the same as ordinary people.
Uncle, who replaced Lisa's deceased father, began traveling with her around Russia and other countries, demonstrating her as a miracle of nature. Lisa was beautiful, smart and quite developed. During her travels, she learned to speak German and English and received a secondary education. In Germany, she was examined by the famous professor Rudolf Virchow. He predicted that she should grow another 13 inches (57.2 cm)! Further fate Lisa Lysko is unknown. Was the professor's forecast justified?

Living microscope

During the experiment, a piece of meat and a plant leaf were placed in front of 29-year-old artist Jody Ostroit. Nearby stood an ordinary electron microscope. Jody carefully examined the objects with the naked eye for a couple of minutes, then took a sheet of paper and drew them internal structure. Researchers could then go up to the microscope and see that the artist had enlarged the scale without distorting the essence of what was being depicted in the least.

“It didn’t come to me right away,” says Jodie. – At first, for some reason, I began to scrupulously draw the texture various items– trees, furniture, animals. Then I began to notice that I was seeing much finer details, elusive to the ordinary eye. Skeptics say that I use a microscope. But where can I get an electron microscope?!”

Jody Ostroit sees the smallest cells of matter, as if photographing them, and then transfers them to paper with ultra-thin brushes and a pencil. And here in front of you is a thin “photograph” of the spleen of a rabbit or the cytoplasm of a eucalyptus tree...
“It would be better if my gift went to some scientist. Why do I need it? For now my pictures are selling out, but the fashion for them will pass. Although I see deeper than any professor, but only in the literal sense of the word...”

Hair in the stomach

Tammy Melhouse, 22, was rushed to a hospital in Phoenix, Arizona with severe abdominal pain. We barely had time, a little more - and the girl would have died. And then the surgeons removed a huge... hair ball from the digestive tract.
Tammy admitted that when she gets nervous, she chews her hair: “I didn’t even notice how I was doing it, I just mechanically bit off and swallowed. Gradually they accumulated in the stomach. I lost my appetite a long time ago, and then wild pain began.”
X-rays showed the presence of some large figurative formation. The surgery to remove the tangle lasted 4 hours, and Tammy was discharged home a few days later.

Captain behind the windshield

1990, June 10 - Captain Tim Lancaster of the BAC 1-11 Series 528FL survived after a prolonged stay outside his aircraft at an altitude of about 5,000 m.
Wearing a seat belt isn't just important for car drivers: the captain of British Airways BAC 1-11, Tim Lancaster, will probably remember this basic safety rule forever after June 10, 1990.
Controlling the plane at an altitude of 5,273 m, Tim Lancaster relaxed his seat belt. Soon after this, the airliner burst Windshield. The captain immediately flew out through the opening and was pressed with his back to the fuselage of the plane from the outside.

The pilot's feet were caught between the yoke and the control panel, and the cockpit door, torn off by the airflow, landed on the radio and navigation panel, breaking it.
Flight attendant Nigel Ogden, who was in the cockpit, was not taken aback and firmly grabbed the captain’s legs. The co-pilot managed to land the plane only after 22 minutes, all this time the captain of the plane was outside.

The flight attendant holding Lancaster believed he was dead, but did not let go because he was afraid that the body would get into the engine and it would burn out, reducing the plane's chances of landing safely.
After landing, they found out that Tim was alive, doctors diagnosed him with bruises and fractures right hand, finger on the left hand and right wrist. After 5 months, Lancaster took the helm again.
Steward Nigel Ogden escaped with a dislocated shoulder and frostbite on his face and left eye.

Stories and memories of a hunter about different hunts Aksakov Sergey Timofeevich

AN UNUSUAL CASE

AN UNUSUAL CASE

In addition to the stories about strange incidents while hunting, I will tell you an incident that at first seemed to me like some kind of dream or magic. While still a very young hunter, I rode at the end of July, with my entire family, to the sulfuric waters of Sergius; Thirty-five versts from our estate was and now is the rich village of Krotkovo, called Krotovka by everyone. Having passed the village, we stopped at the very outskirts to spend the night on a beautiful spring river flowing in high banks. The sun was setting; I went up the river with a gun. I hadn’t walked even a hundred steps when suddenly a couple of Vityutins, having flown in from somewhere in the field, sat down on opposite bank, on a tall alder tree that grew below the river and the top of which was exactly at the same height as my head; The terrain did not allow me to get close, and I, about fifty paces away, fired with a small snipe. For such a fraction the distance was far; both vitiutins flew away, and a peasant girl fell from a tree... Anyone can imagine my situation: at the first moment I lost consciousness and was in a transitional state of a person between sleep and reality, when the objects of both worlds are confused. Fortunately, after a few seconds the girl, with a large beetroot in her hands, jumped to her feet and began to run down the river to the village... I will not go into detail in describing my fear and amazement. Pale as a sheet, I returned to our place of accommodation for the night, told the incident, and we sent to Krotovka to find out about this wonderful event; half an hour later they brought a girl and her mother to us. By the grace of God, she was completely healthy; About thirty snipe pellets scratched her arm, shoulder and face, but, fortunately, not a single one got into her eyes or even penetrated her skin. The matter was explained in the following way: a twelve-year-old peasant girl quietly left the factory ahead of schedule and ran with a beetroot for the bird cherry that grew along the river; she climbed up a tree for berries and, seeing gentleman with a gun, got scared, sat down on a thick branch and pressed herself so tightly against the trunk of a tall bird cherry tree that even the Vityutins didn’t notice her and sat down on an alder tree that grew almost next to the bird cherry tree, somewhat in front. The widely spread charge touched the girl with one edge of its circle. Of course, her fear was great, but mine was no less. Of course, mother and daughter left us, very pleased with this incident.

In the morning, from the train, I

In fact, at the time of his disappearance, Harold Holt (N8 from the list) was 59 years old and, according to friends, he complained of heart problems. And the area where he went swimming is famous for its strong and dangerous currents. The exact day of his disappearance is unknown, but on other days white sharks are seen in local waters... The fact that his body was not found does not mean that the person disappeared, it’s just that in such cases they write “missing” in the criminal case.
- On July 2, 1937, Amelia Earhart (N14 from the list) and her partner Fred Noonan took off from Lae, a small town on the coast of New Guinea, and headed to small island Howland, located in the central Pacific Ocean. This stage of the flight was the longest and most dangerous - to be found after almost 18 hours of flight in Pacific Ocean the island, only slightly rising above the water, was a daunting task for navigation technology of the 30s. By order of President Roosevelt, a runway was built on Howland specifically for Earhart's flight. Here officials and representatives of the press were waiting for the plane, and off the coast there was patrol ship coast guard"Itasca", which periodically maintained radio contact with the aircraft, served as a radio beacon and emitted a smoke signal as a visual reference. According to the ship’s commander’s report, the connection was unstable, the plane was heard well from the ship, but Earhart did not respond to their questions (was the receiver on the plane broken?). She reported that the plane was in their area, they couldn’t see the island, there was little gas, and she was unable to find the direction of the ship’s radio signal. Radio direction finding from the ship also did not bring success, since Earhart appeared on the air on very a short time. The last radiogram received from her was: “We are on line 157-337... I repeat... I repeat... we are moving along the line.” Judging by the signal strength, the plane should have appeared over Howland any minute, but it never appeared; there were no new radio transmissions ... In other words, the plane was unable to establish contact with the ground, perhaps it was on the wrong course, and flew past / did not see Howland, the fuel was running out and when it ran out, an emergency landing was made on water , for which the aircraft was not adapted, with all the ensuing consequences.
By the way, in May 2013 it was announced (including by Interfax) that the supposed wreckage of the plane was discovered by sonar on the ocean floor in the area of ​​​​the atoll in the Phoenix archipelago (my picture). And in this case, it turns out that the plane did not find the landing site and, following its course, flew into the ocean until the fuel ran out...

How often in your life do you encounter unusual people? Do you often see amazing things, become witnesses? paranormal phenomena? Most likely, like us, no. But today is the one rare case. Read more...

Miracles, anomalies, unusual creatures - all this and much more attracts human attention. Scientists name reasons that are completely different from each other. Some insist that in this way a person affirms his true high existence, the only correct and thorough rational education, without flaws or deviations. Others talk about satisfying curiosity, inquisitiveness, which, in turn, also originates in the depths of the subconscious. Well, today let us adhere to the fact that a person, interested in the mysteries of this world, strives for its knowledge and new discoveries.

Now let's ask ourselves a question: how often do you witness paranormal phenomena in your life? Most likely no. Most often we have to read about such anomalies, watch videos, and so on. Of course, we will not be able to provide you with the opportunity to see with your own eyes all those about whom we'll talk, but we’ll tell you all the most amazing things. So, here are the 8 most unusual deviations in the world, of course, all of them are real life stories.

1. The man who doesn't feel the cold

Wim Hof, a Dutchman, amazed the whole world with his extraordinary ability - insensitivity to cold! His body does not suffer and does not undergo changes from extremely low temperatures for human body. He even put nine world records.

In 2000, Wim Hof ​​swam 57.5 meters in 61 seconds. At first glance, nothing amazing, but if you do not take into account the fact that this swim took place under the ice of a frozen lake in Finland. True to tradition, he was wearing only warm leggings and knee socks.

In 2006 he conquered Mont Blanc wearing only shorts! The following year, he tried to conquer the dream of all climbers - Everest, but he was prevented ... by frostbite on his toes, since he again climbed the mountain in one underwear. And yet he does not lose hope and faith, continuing his attempts.

In 2007, the Dutch Iceman amazed everyone and ran half the marathon distance (21 km) barefoot in the snow and wearing shorts. His route took him beyond the Arctic Circle in Finland, where the snow temperature did not exceed 35 degrees below zero.

In 2008, Vim broke his own record for staying in a transparent tube filled with ice. Previously, he managed to stay there for about 64 minutes. Now a new world record has been recorded - 73 minutes!

For scientists, the Dutchman remains an unsolved mystery. Many believe that Vim has such an innate ability, but the latter denies this in every possible way. In many interviews, Hof says that this is only the result of hard training of body and spirit. But when asked about revealing the secret, “ Ice Man"remains silent. One day in a chat he even mentioned a glass of Bacardi. But still, after a while, he revealed the secret of his success: the fact is that he practices the Tummo tantric system, which in fact no one except monks uses.

In any case, such an ability is the fruit of long training, endurance and fortitude, which can only be envied and admired.

2. The Boy Who Never Sleeps

Have you often been overcome by the desire to get rid of the need for sleep? It would seem that this is just a waste of time, and in the end, every person, on average, spends one third of his life simply SLEEPING! But nevertheless, this turned out to be vital for the person himself: the fact is that insomnia over the course of a week activates irreversible consequences in the human body, and after two weeks death inevitable.

But imagine that some people have fulfilled the dream of many and have not slept for 2-3...years!

One of these phenomena was a baby named Rhett. A seemingly ordinary boy, he was born in 2006 into the family of Shannon and David Lamb. A constantly active and inquisitive child, like all children his age. But when the time comes for daytime and night sleep, he still remains an active and awake tomboy. He is already seven years old, but he still hasn’t slept a wink!

This boy has driven the most into a dead end the best doctors the world who had the opportunity to examine it. No one has been able to explain this deviation. But over time, it became clear that the boy had a displacement of the cerebellum and medulla oblongata, which leads to irreversible consequences. This pathology has already been called Arnold-Chiari disease. The fact is that Rhett’s cerebellum is pinched in the very place that is responsible for sleep and the normal functioning and renewal of the body.

Today we have only been able to establish this unusual diagnosis, which does not bode well, but there is no sign of evil yet. So we will consider that the boy is even lucky - how much he can do in his life, accomplish new things!

3. Girl allergic to water

Man, as you know, consists of 80% water. Our life activity is connected with water like nothing else. This is our source of life, health, harmony. But imagine if you are allergic to water! How many of the usual processes associated with this life-giving liquid will be suspended?

It is this kind of illness that Ashley Morris, a girl from Australia who is allergic to water, has to put up with and get along with. Imagine that she endures discomfort even when she sweats! And the most depressing thing is that this pathology is not congenital.

Until the age of 14, the girl lived and enjoyed life like an ordinary Australian teenager. And then she fell ill with seemingly ordinary tonsillitis. Then the doctors prescribed her medications with big amount in penicillin. It was large doses of this antibiotic that awakened the allergy to water.

This is an extremely rare disease that affects only about five people in the world, including Ashley. Life doesn't end there, and Morris shows an even greater zest for life. Despite the fact that she is strictly forbidden to come into contact with water for more than a minute (neither you take a bath or shower, nor a swimming pool), she discovered some of the delights of this state. Her boyfriend, taking care of her in every possible way, protects his beloved from washing dishes and laundry! Ashley also pampers herself with new acquisitions using the money she saves on swimsuits and bath accessories.

4. The Girl Who Can Only Eat Tic Tacs

And again, remember your childhood desire to eat only sweets and chewing gum... Unfortunately, Natalie Cooper, an eighteen-year-old Englishwoman, has long forgotten about these dreams. She would love to eat bacon and eggs or pumpkin soup, but her stomach won't. The girl can only eat Tic-Tac mints.

Doctors examined the girl many times and did not find any pathologies in the stomach or throughout the digestive tract. But for inexplicable reasons the girl gets sick from everything except 2-calorie pills.

And yet Natalie has to eat, because otherwise her body will not receive energy, which will lead to the inevitable. Doctors have designed special tubes through which Natalie’s body receives its daily dose of vitamins, minerals and other useful substances directly.

Because of this, the girl can neither work nor study, as she is constantly dependent on this procedure, but her family and friends do not lose hope. Natalie herself dreams of going to university in the future, getting Good work and eat not only the already hated pills.

5. The musician who constantly hiccups

Exactly! You can imagine how funny this is, but still unfortunate. Chris Sands is 25 years old, a successful young musician who active image I never even suspected in my life that such an unusual fate awaited him.

It started in 2006 when he had hiccups for about a week, but soon stopped. But in February next year She's back almost forever! Since then, the guy has been hiccupping every two seconds.

Doctors say that this looks like a violation of the gastric valve, which is not yet possible to restore.

6. A woman with an allergy to hi-tech

And it's simple brilliant solution for parents if their children cannot tear themselves away from computers, phones and TVs. But no matter how funny it is, Englishwoman Debbie Bird is not laughing at all. The fact is that she has a pronounced allergy to all kinds of electromagnetic fields(any close contact with equipment instantly causes a rash and swelling of the eyelids in the girl).

Having become accustomed to such an illness, Debbie and her husband find some advantages: for example, they will protect their health from harmful effects electronics, and the time saved on all kinds of watching movies, TV series, playing games on the phone, chatting, etc., will be able to be devoted to each other.

7. The girl who faints when she laughs

Here's the problem: you can't even tell her a joke, and noisy companies not for her. Kay Underwood loses consciousness even when she's angry, scared, or surprised. She jokingly says that people, having learned about this peculiarity of hers, immediately try to make her laugh, and then, for a long time, not believing that the lifeless girl lying in front of them fainted. Kay says that somehow she is whole I lost consciousness 40 times a day!

On top of that, the girl is narcoleptic, which is no longer uncommon in the UK, where more than 30 thousand people suffer from this disease. This means that a person can fall asleep at any second of your life. In general, Kay has a hard time, so enjoy every opportunity to laugh without consequences at a good joke.

8. A woman who never forgets anything

How would we need such an ability at school or university - a truly brilliant anomaly!

Jill Price, an American, is endowed with an extraordinary ability - she remembers everything, absolutely everything that happened in her life, all her events. The woman is 42 years old, and if you ask her what happened to her on this very day twenty years ago, she will tell everything in such detail as if it happened five minutes ago.
A scientist from the University of California even gave a special name to this phenomenon - hyperthymestic syndrome, which translated from Greek means “supermemory”.

Previously, only one example of such a manifestation of abilities was known, but soon there were five more people in the world with similar memory. Scientists have not established the cause of this disorder, but they were able to see some similarities between all the patients: they are all left-handed and collect television programs.

Jill Price herself began writing books where she mentions long days depressed because she can't forget the bad things that happened to her.
But she also admits that she could not refuse such an ability.
