1) The freezing cold has no effect on Wim Hof. Also known as the "Iceman", Wim Hof climbed Mount Everest wearing only a pair of shorts in temperatures that can kill an ordinary person. He holds an incredible nine world records and often appears in various countries up to his neck in ice. Scientists can't explain Hof's superhuman ability to put up with below-zero temperatures, but believe it may be due to his skill at meditation. When most people face extreme cold, the blood in their bodies moves away from their fingers and toes to protect their inner organs. After years of meditating, Wim has complete control over his blood flow and can keep it moving to all parts of his body, no matter how cold it gets.

2) South African animal behaviourist Kevin Richardson first made friends with some lion cubs 12 years ago at a lion park, and now he is playing with, cuddling and even falling asleep next to lions! He says he can do this because he tries to know each animal's personality and develop understanding with them. Now Richardson, known as 'The lion whisperer', cares for 39 lions on his 1,800-acre wildlife reserve. Kevin uses his fame to raise awareness about lions under threat in the wild. "Numbers have dropped by up to 75% in the past decade," he says. Kevin also made a film using members of his adopted family called White Lion: Home is a Journey.

3) 32-year-old Daniel Tammet can solve the most difficult math problems in the time it takes most of us to remember where we put our calculator! He has an incredible mental ability to count and calculate. He doesn't see numbers in his head, though, he sees shapes. "When I multiply, I see two shapes. The image starts to change and a third shape appears. That's the answer." Daniel is an autistic savant* who has broken records with his unbelievable memory. Daniel can also speak 10 languages and learned Icelandic in just one week! In 2007, he also wrote his autobiography, Born on a Blue Day.

* autistic savant - somebody with a mental condition that prevents them from communicating well, but has a highly-developed talent in another area e.g., painting, calculating
