It's very handy for extreme close-up inspection of things you have soldered. I always take my lenses out for close-up work like tinkering with electronics.
You can see the writing on a £1 coin quite easily with a jeweller's loupe. I would never have noticed it but for this thread.
i think I have a lump of magnetite in my head
explains my other superpower which is that I can break computers just by looking at them
Champion time waster...
The rest of you are just charlatans.
Any others endowed with logic-defying abilities ?

Does it work in the dark? It might be that you see the shadow through your eyelids.
I can quite accurately tell when somebody has an infection by smell. for those wondering it smells like walkers roast chicken crisps.
i didn't mention that I can detect water underground because I think almost everyone can do this. Water dousing is derided by scientists because they can't explain how it works, but it does and it's a good example of one of these survival techniques that we have mostly lost as they are no longer needed.
I know it's possible to predict future events, particularly tragic ones, as it's happened to me a few times, less so as I get older. I think we are born with some sort of early warning mechanism that is especially developed in certain individuals, but again it defies scientific explanation.
Another example - a few years ago I met a guy who said he was a "vortex surveyor". Those who subscribe to the theory believe that there are lines of energy circling the earth and when they meet it sets up a vortex which in some cases are powerful forces for good - that's as far as my knowledge goes. It's often used to explain the phenomenon of stone circles. As with the dousing, this guy reckoned a few thousand years ago most people would have been able to recognise energy vortexes, that's where they got the motivation to drag incredibly heavy stones halfway cross the country. TBH it's as good as any other explanation I've heard.
There was one particularly famous one where the dowsers were told where the pipe was, and just had to determine whether the water in it was flowing or not - they failed.
