5 Superhuman Powers I would like to have
Filed Under (Humour, News)
I’d been planning to write this article for a really long time and this contest finally motivated me to write it. Please note that I have written this list keeping in mind the fact that I would use these superpowers purely for my personal benefit and not for *helping mankind.*
5. Enhanced Senses
Super-hearing, super-sight would certainly be something I would like. You can eavesdrop on all conversations that you aren’t supposed to listen to, see things you would normally beyond your viewing distance, look through walls and also sense if people are trying to sneak up on you. And coupled with an extra-sharp brain, nothing is beyond your reach.
4. Ability to remotely move/control objects
In scientific terms, Psychokinesis. Inspired by Jean Grey of the X-Men and Matilda, I thought that it would be cool and also very useful in practical life to have such a power. You don’t ever need to get up from your chair unless you absolutely require it. No more getting up to search for the remote. No need to get the ladder to access high places. Life could have never been simpler.
3. Invisibility
Just imagine, you would be able to turn invisible at your wish and whim and back to normal whenever you feel like it. Together with this power, anything you hold should also be able to turn invisible. This would be perfect to visit places you would otherwise never be able to. And since you can take anything along with you, there is virtually no limit to what you can do.
2. Access the thoughts of people
Ever wondered what the person in front of you is thinking about you? Don’t wonder anymore, once you have this power. You will be able to access the thoughts of everyone around you like an open notebook. Now you don’t need to worry about giving the wrong reply in an interview or to your girlfriend. Of course, once you have read the other persons thoughts, it’s up to you and your talents to give the right reply.
1. Manipulate Time and Space
This is exactly like Hiro Nakamura from the television show, ‘Heroes‘. Having the power to stop time whenever and wherever you want could be one the best things that could happen to me. You can capture a picture perfect moment and examine it as long as you like from any angle you like. The idea that everyone else around you would be bound by the laws of time while you are free to manipulate as you wish is itself an appealing thought. Along with it, you also get the power to manipulate space and therefore, you can travel to any place on the globe instantaneously. No more waiting in lines for planes, just instant transportation at the tips of your fingers.
And there you have it, the Top 5 Superhuman Powers that I would like to have. Thanks for taking time to read my post, feel free to post your own idea in the comments.

I’d like to manipulate gravity if I was a super-hero. I guess that falls into your #1.
Great post.
I’d just like to have Peter Patrelli kinda powers: To get the same power of anyone with powers who comes near me.

I would like all as well except for No.2. I would never want to read what people are thinking, that would just make the world a scarier place.
Hop on over to my blog as well and read my Top 5 blog post.
I would like the ability to deflect incompetent people. If one of my many incompetent bosses or co-workers come near me a forcefield would defelect them away. LOL.

Lol! When I was a kid, I would always dream of having super powers. Of course, who wouldnt? Especially if it is for personal use! Hahahaha!
People love to dream of such things because they are very uncommon and becuase of the fact that having super powers is cool. However, there is a reason why there is no such thing as super powers is because it might cause an imbalance in the world (at least that is what I think , hehe). People would become too lazy to work, others would use their powers to contriol evil.
Hahaha… anyways, this is a nice post. It makes me want to relive my childhood years. ^_^
Thanks for your post.

Invisibility would be my #1 — that would be too cool. And I think shape-shifting would have to be on there, too. Great post, Kishor.

Kishor–I love this post! I’m adding it to my top faves from the Problogger writing project!
Okay, now this is serious–after much thought, I’ve decided that if I could have super powers, I would want the ability to manipulate time and space–another perk of this power is that if you ever mess up and put your foot in your mouth, or if you make a bad decision, you could turn back time and get an instant “do over”!
Back in my comic book reading youth, I used to think about this question a lot. I think the best superhuman power to have would be the manipulation of time. Just think how a few do- overs would affect your life!

All I want is the ability to fly and use Jedi mind tricks.
Thanks for visiting my blog, I love your top 5 especially number 3 invisiblity, reminds me of a wet dream I used to have in my teens.
Goodluck with your blog

Give me invisibility over the others, any day of the week. I’d be a great bank robber.
I like Hiro’s power, but having Peter’s power would be really cool!
Nice post.
I wonder how many nerdly types spend time nearly every single day discussing just this topic – I know my friends and I (mostly 30-40-something consultants) do
Thanks for an entertaining post, good luck in the competition.
Best regards, Andrew
Hi, I’m the blogjunkie from myMacBUZZ. I always thought superhero power #4 was ‘telekinesis’ until I read this post.
Check out my entry for Darren’s group writing project too.

my top five would be weather control, mind reading, metamorphing, phasing through solid objects, and super senses. Imagine wut u could do with weather control, you could have snow days from school any time u need a break! And morphing into someone else would definitely come in handy; imagine parading around as your favorite celebrity! lol. At school you could walk easily through crowded hallways with phasing through solid objects. And super senses allow you to hear conversations about you, or see something someone else couldn’t or taste something someone else couldn’t!
I like Teleporting… Or Super speed
[...] 5 Superhuman Powers I would like to have by Mjuboy [...]

5.regeneration so i can pretty much not die till old age(awesome)
4.become ghost like(like in the matrix reloaded with “the twins”)so if someone was to shoot me or hit me with a metal pole or something, i could turn ghost form and it would go straight through me. now that is a proper useful ability lol.
3.Psychokinesis
2.the ability to manipulate time and space with the added extra with it teleportation.
1.the power of creation. even more powerful than time manipulation. u can create a new universe at anytime, or destroy one.
