To get the floor with your fingertips without bending your knees at the same time seems to be a very simple task. But it is worth trying to do this in reality - and it turns out that the years spent without a banner made themselves felt. And, in fact, few can boast that they had excellent plastic before.
Another thing is those who have devoted themselves to gymnastics and yoga. After all, there are such people whose ability to bend can drive any spectator into a stupor. Those who without any problems throw their feet behind their heads and bend back more than 90 °. They are the most flexible people in the world, and this story is about them.
Incredible plastic: innate talent or years of training?
Initially, almost all children have good plasticity. This is due to the fact that at a young age, their bones have not yet formed, so they are more elastic. The same goes for their tendons and muscles. And yet, in most cases, the most flexible people in the world even during this period showed superhuman abilities.
Of course, any talent needs to be developed. Gymnastics or the same circus art does not tolerate amateurs, and here it’s not enough just to bend well. In order to become the best, you need to work hard on yourself, work day by day, honing your skills. This is the only way to ensure that one day, when asked: "Who are the most flexible people in the world?" - hear your own name in response.
In the meantime, consider those who have already won this title. Those whose efforts and efforts have already brought the desired success.
The most flexible person - Mukhtar Gusengadzhiev
If there is a limit to human capabilities, then Mukhtar Gusengadzhiev was clearly forgotten to talk about this. This person is able to do this with his body, which makes others' hair stand on end. For example, he can fit into a box measuring 60 x 60 cm, and despite the fact that his own height is 184 cm!
Mukhtar was born in the city of Izberash, in Dagestan. They did not notice much talent for him in childhood, and there was no time for that. Almost all his free time went to work - Mukhtar grazed sheep.
After serving in the army, Gusengadzhiev finds himself in an unpleasant situation, because of which he is sent to prison. It was there that he began to study yoga diligently, in the hope that one day she would change his life. In principle, this happened in the future.
Another addiction of Mukhtar was kickboxing. At one of the championships he was noticed by Jean-Claude Van Damme himself. It was he who contributed to his move to Los Angeles, where Gusengadzhiev received the title "The most flexible person on the planet." Now Mukhtar is a little over 50 years old, but he does not even think of giving up his career as a professional acrobat and actor.
Young snake man from India
It is no secret that the most flexible people in the world live in Asia, as many here practice yoga and martial arts. For example, in India there is a guy named Vijay. Once in childhood, he saw a film with Jackie Chan. The guy was struck by the ease with which the actor does tricks on the screen, while not forgetting to smile. So young Vijay decides to enroll in karate lessons in order to become like his idol.
What was the coach’s surprise when he saw the guy’s stretch! From that day on, they began to diligently develop Vijay's talent so that he could show himself to the world. And they did it. Now the guy can easily crawl into the neck of a tennis racket or drink Coca-Cola while holding the bottle with one foot.
