Intriguing article about brain perception.

I am aware some people think that they are "different" in some way so they MUST possess some sort of ability that other humans do not have, I must say I have had the thought cross my mind that I was some sort of super human ability that I have yet to determine! This article interested me a lot because it could give an explanation as to why people think they could see in the dark (as I thought I could when I was younger) http://bigthink.com/ideafeed/why-some-people-really-can-see-their-hands-in-the-dark
