When you think of mutants, you might think of people flying, lasers shooting from their eyes and Hugh Jackman with his impressive abs… but let’s not be fooled. Mutations will not be able to help you save the world in a cape, but there are some spectacular human characteristics that are very rare and make their owners really unique.
O incredible.club wants to show you 7 human characteristics that, if you have them, you can consider yourself part of a lucky little group.
1. Having thumbs with three phalanges or having a sixth finger
Being born with three-phalangeal thumbs or having a sixth finger can certainly seem unusual and rare — only one in a thousand people have a sixth finger, and one in 25,000 have three phalanges. Anyway, this is not a big problem and there are still big advantages in some areas. Doctors have even discovered that these people’s brains are perfectly capable of controlling the extra limb and there is no cognitive overload.
2. Having an extra rib
Yep, that’s a request you might hear at a barbecue: “An extra rib.” But here we are talking about something much more exciting. Most people have 24 ribs (12 pairs), but there is the possibility of having an extra rib, on the left or right, or on both sides. The rib is present at birth and can sometimes go unnoticed throughout a person’s life. It may not even show up on an x-ray because it’s hidden as a fine strand of tissue fibers. It sounds kind of dangerous, but extra ribs are usually harmless if they aren’t pressing on a blood vessel or nerve.
3. Having “golden blood” — only 50 people in the world have
Members of royal families are said to have blue blood, but let’s go a step further and talk about golden blood. This term refers to a specific blood type that is incredibly valuable and rare — Rhnull, blood that lacks Rh antigens entirely. In 1961, an Indigenous Australian became the first person to have this blood type. Since then, only around 50 people have been observed with this incredibly rare trait.
4. Having that little hole in your ear
From 0.1 to 10% of babies worldwide are born with this characteristic, which is basically a malformation of the preauricular soft tissues. This is actually linked to infections causing pain and swelling.
5. People with super strong “unbreakable” bones
Imagine what Wolverine had to go through to get his adamantium bones. Also, some “mutants” are privileged enough to be born with super strong bones. People with a mutation that enhances the LRP5 gene experience abnormal density in their skeletal structure. Their bones are so strong that some even report difficulty staying afloat while swimming.
6. Having hair that cannot be styled
Everyone has had that day where your hair is completely against you in every possible way. However, some people experience it daily. A mutation in the genes that control how hair grows causes what’s called “glass hair,” which means your hair becomes so dry that it can’t be styled no matter what you do.
7. This muscle on your wrist
We know you’re curious to know if you’re one of the lucky few with this special trait, so let’s start with a little experiment: place your palm on a flat surface, then touch your pinky finger to your thumb while lifting them slightly. . It is assumed that the “palmar longus”, name of this muscle, has acted as an anchor for the skin and fascia of the hand, but its absence worldwide today hovers around 30%.
