First Zombies Now Real Life X-Men Sh*t? 11-Year-Old Viet Girl Can Set Things On Fire With Her Mind!
"The case of an 11-year-old girl in HCM City's Tan
Binh District claimed to have supernatural fire-
starting powers is continuing to baffle
scientists.
The girl, whose family claims she has an unusual
mental power that can cause objects to burst into
flames, has drawn a great deal of attention from
the Vietnamese media.
The girl's father said he first became aware of
that his child was unusual when the family home's
electrical network suffered several short
circuits, about a month ago. Electricians were
called to fix the short circuit but could not find
the cause behind the power failures.
He said the girl was taken to other houses where
the same phenomenon took place each time. Her
mattresses, fans and other equipment have burst
into flames. The hotel room where her family
stayed two weeks ago during their holiday on Vung
Tau beach also suffered burns from a blaze.
The family then realised that objects were burnt
when the girl approached them, although her body
did not radiate any electric sparks, said her
father.
The girl has been examined by doctors at Cho Ray
Hospital and the Children's Hospital No. 2 but
nothing abnormal has been found.
But a team of scientists from the Centre of
Research and Application for Radio-active Geo-
biological Energy at Hong Bang University has also
carried out tests on the girl and confirmed that
she is unusual.
Prof. Nguyen Manh Hung, director of the
university, said that the girl is capable of
burning things arround her.
"This is a very strange case not only in Viet Nam
but for the world," said Hung.
Brain scans discovered an unusual line on the
right part of the girl's brain, said the doctor.
"She burned objects that were located near and far
from her, so there is no specific distance limit,"
said Hung.
Samples of her blood, skin tissue and urine along
with objects from the girl's home have been taken
for further analysis, he said.
Nguyen Phuc Giac Hai, a scientist at the Research
Centre of Human Potential, said the girl was a
global scientific phenomenon.
"This case is special because it has lasted for
more than one month and fires have occurred
wherever she has been," said Hai.
He said the centre is going to hold a conference
next week to find out the causes of the girl's
condition and discuss ways to ensure her
protection.
Scientists at the Viet Nam Physics Institute are
also studying the case and will soon release their
findings.
Hung said the girl will be taken to school or
other places by a car and with carers, and her
home and school have also been equipped with fire
extinguishers. — VNS
