Admit it. At some point in your life you've run around the house in a cape, or at least thought about doing it. Don't worry. No judgment here. I know I have.
It's fun to imagine how different life would be if we developed superpowers of our own.
These are in no particular order.
10. Invisibility
With the power of invisibility you could vanish in the blink of an eye. You could sneak out of the house whenever you felt like it, sneak into movies, play pranks on your friends without them ever knowing it was you, and spy on them to find out exactly what they
think of you. Of course, if you're the type to spy, you should probably
brace for the worst.
9. Superhuman Strength
Impossible tasks would become simple. Stuck in traffic? Just get out of the car and carry it home. Bending pipes, throwing cars, and smashing through brick walls would be a great way to relieve stress. The movie "127 Hours" also wouldn't have been that interesting if the guy had superhuman strength.
"Oh my arms stuck under a boulder. I'll just move this out of the way."
8. Regenerative Healing
Whenever you would become injured your body would just heal itself within minutes. No broken bones. You would never get sick. Shotgun blows to the chest would become a thing of the past. You could even use your favorite bacon recipe at every meal.
7. Superhuman Speed
You'd be able to run from Cairo to Cape Town in less time than it took Kim Kardashian to divorce Kris Humphries. You could run circles around supervillains; making them too tired or frustrated to even bother with you. On the downside, there could be a slight increase in RUIs (Running Under the Influence).
6. Wall Crawling
Who didn't want to climb walls like Spiderman when they were small? No-one. Or no-one that I know. The proof? Climbing between doorposts and walls. With the ability to wall crawl you'd be able to cling to solid surfaces such as walls and ceilings.
5. X-Ray Vision
Not just being able to see peoples bones, but being able to see through different surfaces. As long as you'd be able to switch it on and off. There's nothing worse than seeing certain people you see on a regular basis, without their clothes on. You don't want to scratch your retinas out.
4. Flight
There's no need to introduce this superpower. It's the power every little kid dreams of having from the moment they first watch Wendy and her siblings take off into the night sky with Peter Pan. Imagine a world without traffic jams. Where you could travel anywhere on a whim, and see the world from a birds eye view. It's a bird. It's a plane. No; it's me, flying to the shop for bread and milk.
3. Mind Control
With the power of mind control, you could persuade your boss to give you a raise, demand an A from your professor (cough, Wendy, cough), and brainwash your parents into letting you quit school and go backpacking through Europe. You could pretty much do anything you wanted.
2. Time Manipulation
Ever wanted to turn back the clock? With the power of time manipulation, you could. The good times wouldn't race by like they'd never happened, and the bad times wouldn't crawl along at a snails pace.
1. Immortality
The only reason this is here, is so this list can cover all bases.
Immortality is a tricky superpower to have. Yes, you would live forever. But can you imagine being ten thousand years old? You would be bed ridden for the most of your life. So you'd probably need the power of youth as well. But then your knowledge and wisdom would be immense.
