-I require very little sleep comparatively to most people. Roughly around four hours per night. (Up until last year, it was about 3).
-Not so much something that my body does so much as it is something which it doesn't do- which is die. A quick list.
Fell 3 stories onto pavement
Got blasted by debris from a tornado
Got hit by cars on four occasions
Got kicked in the face by a horse
Got tackled by an angry bull
Got caught on fire
Got whammed in the face by a baseball bat
Had a section of wall collapse onto me
Action movie-level car crash, resulting in my neck being broken in two locations. Doctors didn't pick up on them at first, so I spent two weeks at home until my follow-up, in which the new x-rays showed my neck split in two at a 27 degree angle, in which they put me on the operating table straightaway.
-A result from the last incident stated above, the muscles in my left arm, shoulder, chest, abs, neck, and back are significantly smaller than my right, due to nerve damage (the muscles just won't activate properly, and thus have shrunk due to lack of activity).
-Another result from the crash, the nerves on my scalp seem to have been thrown out of whack; if you were to touch me on my forehead, I'll also feel the sensation on the top of my head- and the same thing occurs as you move further back, as well, right down to my nape. I also have a dead spot on my shoulder where I don't feel anything whatsoever (they tested with needles, scalpels, and temperature).
-When I stretch, my muscles vibrate. A deep, resonating shake. It's practically audible.
Dude holy shit. How are you still alive?
The only thing weird with my body that I can think of is that I have a severe reaction with mosquito bites that can cause huge patches of skin to swell. If I take a shower the bump enlarges to 3 times its size and takes an extra week to die down.
