See Five-Year-Old Girl That Has Superpower That Hypnotizes Animals

Meet 5-year-old Han Jiaying, from Shenyang, China. This little girl discovered that she has a superpower that children all over the world wish they possessed. She can hypnotize animals with her touch and her voice. 

The ability to seemingly hypnotize animals is a skill that has to be developed over time. The process, in scientific terms, is known as tonic immobility. By gently, but also firmly holding an animal in your hands and laying it on its side or back, you can illicit a natural reaction in the creature that exists to protect it from predators. The animal temporarily goes limp, hoping that a predator will fail to notice it, and eventually the animal’s muscles regain motion and it goes scampering on its way.

To showcase the full array of her abilities, Han put to sleep a dog, a lizard, a chicken, a frog, and most impressive in my mind, a bunny. When she finished hypnotizing them, the animals’ limbs were limp. The chicken required a black cloth to cover its eyes, but the fact that it remained motionless even as a studio audience and the judges’ all gasped is impressive.
