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.
