These kids aren’t characters out of your favorite superhero movie. They’re real humans with skills like night vision, super strength, and super elasticity—among others.

Helping Humans Fly

The power of flight is probably the most-wanted superpower of all. Imagine being able to see the world from a true bird’s eye view. Sure, you can do it from an airplane or even a hot air balloon, but these daredevil humans are taking flight to a whole new level. (Note: This very high-risk activity should never be attempted at home.)

The Extraordinary Artist

Meet Stephen Wiltshire. Stephen, who is autistic, has an extraordinary photographic memory. He can draw detailed images of cities just by flying overhead in a helicopter. In this short video, watch as Stephen draws New York City from memory.

Humans in Space

Draw From Memory

You don’t have to be Stephen Wiltshire to draw a place from your own memory. Think of a place you’ve visited and use the details you remember to draw it. (Pro tip: It might help to close your eyes and imagine you’re visiting this place again right now. You’ll be amazed what your brain comes up with!)
