she really is a Wonder Woman did you see
how soft that was that was so soft the
landing was perfect the corona
superheroes aren’t real but these
remarkable individuals living among us
might just make you reconsider that
statement welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’re counting down our picks for
the top ten living people who may be
superheroes for this list we’re looking
at currently living individuals who’ve
demonstrated unbelievable skills and
abilities and/or have achieved
accomplishments beyond those of most
normal people these above average
individuals may not have x-ray vision or
the ability to fly but we wouldn’t be
surprised to discover that they’re
secretly superheroes
number ten Daniel browning Smith
super flexibility meet Daniel browning
Smith he was born with an incredible
power he’s the world’s most flexible man
when you’re picked a star and Stan Lee’s
superhumans a TV series presented by
comic book legend Stan Lee then you’re
probably more than superhuman you’re
basically a superhero team leader on a
recruiting mission three two one time
nicknamed rubber boy this classically
trained contortionist is about as
double-jointed as they come he can
rotate his head a full 180 degrees and
dislocate both arms and legs he has
seven Guinness World Records to his
credit has been seen in such films as
men in black 2 Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and
you don’t mess with the Zohan as well as
numerous television series like HBO’s
carnival there are a few small spaces
this guy can’t fit into we’re a breed of
people that have taken something to the
next level to make it spectacular it’s
not fiction this is true
number 9 half Thor Ullaeus bjornsen
super size and strength thus far three
actors have played the mountain on HBO’s
Game of Thrones but none has done the
name justice quite like bjornsen as one
of the world’s most prolific strongmen
bjornsen nicknamed door took home the
title of Europe’s strongest man in 2014
and 2015 which was just one among a
number of other strength competitions
he’s won since he made his debut in 2010
as if that weren’t enough to earn him
superhuman status he also used to play
basketball professionally in Iceland
starting centre sir gregor clegane
tennis mr. king
number eight Yves Rossy human flight
technology this engineer and military
trained pilot might not be flying with
the same level of control or agility as
the MCU Sam Wilson also known as the
Falcon but his personal flight suit
feels like something ripped straight
from the comics now it’s more physically
reminiscent of the great machine from
the critically acclaimed ex machina
comic series this winged jetpack feels
like it comes from some real-life Tony
Stark or Bruce Wayne type of tech based
superhero innovation as an experienced
pilot Rossy wanted to explore more
freeform flying and began experimenting
with small-scale gliders in 1993 this
evolved into his current almost 8 foot
wingspan carbon-fiber jet engine powered
suit with which the jet man as he is
often known soars to unbelievable
heights regularly
number seven seed RunAs Savitz goes
super strength
oswaldo shisha sauce – cut disparity or
not gone with the gap addition with bank
issues in ramen burger half thor Ullaeus
the mountain bjornsen is an undeniable
physical force to be reckoned with but
if there’s one strong man who bests him
in terms of superhuman strength
it’s Ziggy Lunas Zavitz Gus it’s like
that age-old debate of who’s strongest
in the Marvel Universe
the thing is absurdly strong and worthy
of your respect but when push comes to
literal shove the Hulk would most likely
take the title
[Applause]
in 2014 Big Z won first place in the
world Strongest Man competition beating
the runner-up you guessed it bjornsen by
just a half a point Big Z is the only
man to ever win first place in every
major recognized strongman competition
viki’s goes a point and a half further
into the lead
number six Daniel Tammet super genius
one four one five nine two six five
three five eight two seven nine seven
boy this Englishman possesses a brain
like few others he may not have
telekinesis or other popular comic book
based powers of the mind but his
abilities are undeniably superhuman he
is not only supremely intelligent but
arguably wired differently he’s
considered to be one of the most gifted
autistic savants of our time describing
numbers as having distinct shapes and
feelings to them but it’s not only
numbers that I see in colors word too
for me have colors and emotions and
textures rather than just numerical
value thanks to his incredible brain he
can process complex mathematical
equations mentally that few can even do
on paper no fell back a sense add fitter
make a sore that leg he’s also a master
linguist a skill he proved beyond a
doubt when he learned Icelandic to a
conversational degree in one week’s time
an accomplishment that most would agree
is no mere human feet April 12th
yep 1947 April 12 1940 a case oh you
were born on a Saturday and do you know
I don’t know you don’t know number 5
Usain Bolt super speed I tried to get
target on when I get called I seem to go
with faster there’s likely no one faster
in water at least then Michael Phelps
the most decorated Olympian in history
with his 23 gold medals in 28 total but
on land in perhaps the oldest and most
natural of athletic activities
running Usain Bolt is the pinnacle of
consistent human performance and is
viewed as the fastest human ever timed
yeah it was so far ahead of the field
that he actually crossed the line and he
was laughing and joking with the
Canadian Andre de Grasse the Jamaican
runner may have fewer medals but that’s
a reality of the sport there simply are
fewer events to compete in but he
consistently outperforms the competition
at every opportunity so is it any wonder
he’s dubbed lightning bolt that back
number for Jessie Graff super strength
agility and endurance I love working out
hard warm up with some juggling and
AcroYoga just really like really
low-impact stretchy stuff she may not be
an Olympian but Jessie Graff is the
epitome of female fitness in her own
right as a stunt woman extraordinaire
her body screams superhero the i-beam is
taken out over a dozen top competitors
like those feeding on that notch
great tech seen hard times Jessie Graff
she is not only athletic but also an
individual in possession of the sort of
diverse skill sets that make a super
hero super she has to live up to the
expectations of a real-life superhero as
she does stunt double work for Supergirl
herself melissa benoist on the TV series
she’s also done stunt work for Marvel’s
agents of shield x-men first class live
free or die hard not to mention her
qualifying round on American Ninja
Warrior would have likely made the real
Wonder Woman proud
[Applause]
number three Kevin Richardson animal
communication dr. Dolittle maybe a
fictional character but this South
African is the real deal when it comes
to animal whispering at least as far as
big cats are concerned a widely
respected animal behaviorist the lion
whisperer demonstrates unparalleled
skill when it comes to understanding and
interacting with the animals of Africa
Lions in particular doesn’t matter
whether there were hand raised lines or
lines that are and just simply raised in
captivity they can be extremely
dangerous and people need to respect
that
while many experts prefer to study from
afar Richardson is unique in his
extremely personal approach to handling
animals the Lions in his sanctuary greet
him much like a house cat would with
love and affection
while others may understand animals
Richardson seemingly connects with them
on an individual level they play rough
don’t they know they do that’s not for
sissies you playing with lines number 2
wim HOF extreme stamina and
thermoregulation I think of the gold as
a noble force it’s just helping me if
someone were to call you cold as ice
this song would likely come to mind and
you probably wouldn’t take it as a
compliment you as cold as I
but for this unbelievably resilient
Dutch man being cold as ice is part of
everyday life and his claim to fame
known as the Iceman
wim HOF can withstand cold temperatures
that would likely lead to hypothermia or
death in the hardiest of average
individuals how he regulates his body
temperature heart rate and breathing by
exercising control over typically
involuntary bodily functions
the daredevil has performed full
marathons in sub-zero weather in nothing
but shorts and stayed in an ice bath for
a chilling 1 hour and 52 minutes a
Guinness world record different way of
breathing which is able to make contact
with the immune system and the nervous
system to a very a to very deep level
before we unveil our number one pick
here are some honorable mentions
construction worker and his tools
started sticking to him artificial
intelligence could be a real danger in
the not-too-distant future it could
design improvements to itself
announcer the sole number one das uber
boy super-strength we think about
disease as a spectrum of abnormality we
usually think of it in the negative well
in this case this is somebody who has
abnormality in the positive direction in
1999 German doctors were shocked when a
mother gave birth to a child with the
most defined muscles they had ever seen
in an infant hello family he was
described as reportedly having a
physique similar to a bodybuilder while
da scoober boy isn’t his official name
several sources listed him as such
following a 2004 report in the New
England Journal of Medicine his parents
requested that the child’s identity be
kept secret in order to allow him to
grow up out of the public eye naturally
this secret identity only makes him all
the more intriguing we’re not sure what
the german equivalent of Smallville is
but here’s hoping he’s getting a moral
human upbringing
who knows how his strength has increased
birth but this world could sure use a
real-life Superman and das uber boy
might just be our best candidate no
matter how you find the pot of gold be
to the Ryan all that matters is that you
beat the leprechauns that doesn’t make
any sense doesn’t have to make sense
when you look like this mmm
do you agree with our list are there any
other people currently living among us
that you think might be superheroes for
more unbelievable but true top 10s
