The Tucker tribe lives in the Amazonian forests. You can pour water on them as much as you like, but their skin and hair will remain dry.

Scientists believe that in the process of evolutionary development they have developed immunity to a humid climate and frequent torrential rains. A special coating has formed on the skin of the Indians, which protects their body from constant moisture. Water flows from them like from a duck or a goose.

For many years this Indian tribe lives in constant humidity conditions. "Watertight" people were discovered by Dr. Tolborne in 1988 while traveling along the Hurua River. Because of the pouring rain, he stopped at an Indian settlement. Then he drew attention to the fact that even under heavy rain, people remain absolutely dry.

He hopes to use it in the future for processing outerwear so that it does not get wet when it rains.

Riddles are, by definition, difficult to solve. If you want to bring a little mystery into your life, while maintaining magnetism and charm, you can learn to hide some of your personality traits, and emphasize some on the contrary, in order to create an image of a mysterious person in your performances, in your behavior and in your personality.

Steps

Part 1

Only speak when you have something to say. If you want to emphasize your mystical and mysterious presence, you should leave some things unsaid. Learn not to voice your opinion all the time - not because you are shy and meek, but because you are confident enough. Speak when you know it’s important, but don’t feel obligated to speak whenever you get the chance.

• We often mistake fast speakers for smart, but pauses in conversation are especially powerful. In dialogue, provide an opportunity for reflection and silence, allowing what is said to be understood. This will give weight to your words and emphasize the importance of your presence. Often times, people remember not what you say, but how you do it.

1. Play the role of the devil's advocate. Mysterious people are often unpredictable, suddenly expressing opinions that run counter to those of others. Don't follow the crowd. Instead, look for new ways of seeing and try to think creatively. Ask questions instead of agreeing to avoid conflict.

   • If three people in the meeting have already agreed on the same solution to the problem, play the devil's advocate, even if you think they are probably right, or keep quiet. It makes no sense to become another voice in the crowd repeating the same thing.
   • Ask lots of questions to make sure the solutions are the best. Clarify, label and solicit all ideas to get to the heart of the matter.

2. Steer conversations in a serious direction. Secular talk are essentially banal. We're talking about the weather, troubles at work, childcare, traffic jams, cost of living. Mysterious people are more likely to prefer more meaningful face-to-face conversation. Learn to use creativity in your speech and stay on track for meaningful discussion.

   • If at a party you are faced with a lot of empty conversations about yourself, try to find someone who will support a different kind of conversation. Start by asking an unusual question or feeling the ground. If someone, by the way, notes that he likes the film, then instead of agreeing, ask why?

3. Use unusual expressions. Be creative and say what will make people sit down and reflect, not what will disappear in the background of the conversation. If someone asks: “How are you?” And you answer “Slowly!”, They will immediately forget about it. Or you could say, "I feel like a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs." If someone asks about how baseball ended, they say the game was terrible, or they say it was "Like a sip of hot lead." People will pay attention.

   Build a powerful vocabulary. Learn a few new words every day and use them in your conversations. Having clear and correct diction in your everyday conversations will help you stand out from the crowd.

   Part 2

   Keep some distance

   1. Talk less about yourself. Social media has changed the way we communicate with each other, removing the aura of mystery around us. Sometimes it’s difficult to change people's perceptions of you because they’ve heard too much about who you are now. Do not limit yourself when talking online or one-on-one. Instead, for that matter, be prudent about disclosing information about yourself to strangers and strangers, and be more open with those closer to you.

      • There is no need to constantly inform the environment about your location or describe interests and tastes at the slightest pretext. If someone asks where you are going, just dodge the answer. "I'll come back later."
      • Remove location information and updates from your accounts in social networks like Twitter and Facebook. Stop calling yourself a citizen of a particular nation on the networks. Remove personal information from accounts as much as possible.

   2. Choose your friends wisely. Some people are open and gullible, making others love almost instantly. Mysterious people, on the other hand, behave very carefully before confiding in anyone. Trust and respect come with time and experience. People should try to get close to you.

      • Spend time with people alone, not in large groups... It is difficult to be mysterious in large groups. Get to know people for who they are, not what they pretend to be in public places.
      • If you want to be mysterious, you also need to know when to get people close enough to you. Mysterious people are not hermits. Even with mysterious people, there are people you can trust and lean on. This may just be the lesser of what we consider a cultural ideal.

   3. Stay calm under pressure. Mysterious people can control their emotions and passions in such a way that before outside world they appear collected, calm and unperturbed. This does not mean that you should lack passion or emotions, but you should be able to manage those emotions. Be cool when you feel good or bad.

      • Mysterious people are not supposed to be martyrs. If you are in constant pain, whether physical or emotional, see your doctor. Be healthy, then you don't have to worry about disguise. Watch your body and health to stay strong in any situation.

   4. Live in the present. Where did the mysterious man come from? Unknown. Where is the mysterious man going? Anywhere. Don't dwell on the past or dreams of the future. Focus on living instead of this moment and be here now. Be spontaneous, be ready to adapt to the situation, and you will be as mysterious as the world around you.

      • If you are upset about a divorce, loss to your family, or some kind of failure, talk privately with a close friend, then move on. This is not something to talk about at work.

   Part 3

   Be strong personality

   1. Train your brain. By challenging yourself intellectually, you will stay involved in life and be interesting and mysterious to others. Don't waste time playing video games for hours; spend time reading books. Don't chat, write poetry. Dedicate yourself to intellectual discovery and amaze the world with your intelligence.

   2. Be kind and life-affirming. Mysterious people may appear mystical, but not passive or meaningless. In fact, your presence should be reassuring when people know that you are not gossiping or leaving your friends in a difficult situation.

      • Listen when people talk. Learn to listen by focusing on someone as they speak. Too often we wait our turn to say something. Instead, fully engage in conversations. You will be surprised how unusual this can be for some people.
      • Memorize people's names and try to remember what other people are saying. Mysterious people can seem aloof, so you will greatly surprise your surroundings by remembering your friend's birthday or a certain story told once.

   3. Get carried away with something unusual. Show your inner strangeness in the form of a non-standard interest or unusual hobby which will definitely pique the curiosity of others. Find something that truly delights you in its unique qualities, not because it is popular.

      • Start collecting rare coins or go out into the forest for mushrooms every weekend. Take pictures. Learn Latin language... Find a passion and follow it.

   4. Be savvy. WikiHow is the right place to uncover secrets. The more esoteric knowledge you have, the more erudite and interesting you are to those around you. Surprise people with your capabilities.

      • Learn card trick and do not do it for just anyone, do it only if you are at a party and someone brings up the topic. You will surprise everyone if you suddenly perform a mind-blowing card trick.
      • If you are young, try to get a part-time job. The job will help you gain serious skills and real-world experience that can help you stand out from your peers.

   5. Build credibility. Mysterious people are intelligent thinkers and are known for their level-headed temperaments and carefully calculated ideas. This sometimes conflicts with dominant ways of thinking. The mystery people are Rosa Parks and Batman. They don't ask permission to do what they want, they rely on their own abilities and find their own way. Think of characters like Sherlock Holmes, Clint Eastwood, and Julia Child.

      • Look for riddles around you. Bob Dylan and Miles Davis may be mysteries on Wikipedia, but so can librarians, gravediggers, baristas, and street musicians in your city. Look at the quiet leaders around you, not just what comes from television and newspapers. Find other types of role models.
   • If dating is one of the reasons you want to be mysterious, you have to be a little more than a mystery. Work on your charm, caring for others, and stay fit.
   • The exception will be Russell Brand, he manages to act excited and enthusiastic, but at the same time he remains an intelligent and mysterious person.
   • Don't confuse mysteriousness to others with mysteriousness to yourself. Self-knowledge is vital to a good life, and it is something that you need to work towards throughout your life. Don't neglect this part of taking care of yourself - read a lot, write down your thoughts, be open to new experiences, fight your fears and misunderstandings, and always strive for knowledge.

   Warnings

   • Don't be who you are not. Never forget who you really are.
   • Always communicate and act without aggression. Violence is a sign of loss of control, which mysterious people never admit.
   • Don't break the law. You know the consequences. This is not recommended in principle.

Alex Erlandson (1884 – 1964)

This man is known as a very skillful farmer who created unimaginable structures from living trees. He created living furniture, towers, various geometric figures, hearts and other interesting elements. Naturally, this man's art attracted a lot of attention, and therefore he worked secretly, sometimes even installing opaque screens so that no one could see what was happening behind them.

Alex Erlandson even created the "Circus of Trees", which immediately after opening became a Mecca for crowds of curious tourists. In 1964 this amazing person died without revealing to anyone the secrets of his art.

Interesting fact in 1985, "The Circus of Trees" was bought by millionaire Michael Bonfante, who transplanted all of these trees in his own park in Gilroy, California.

Jerome (1840-1912)

On September 8, 1912, surprised fishermen Sandy Cove from Canada discovered a man with "very beautiful skin" near their settlement, who had both legs amputated, and the operation took place quite recently. At first this man could not say anything, which is understandable, but even after he regained consciousness, no one heard more than two or three words from him. One of the words was "Jerome", so the fishermen assumed that was his name.

Jerome sometimes behaved very strangely - when people who came to him began to speak, Jerome, when pronouncing some words, became furious. In addition, when he was offered money, he did not accept anything, being very offended. Everyone who saw him came to the conclusion that this man was keeping some kind of secret, not intending to reveal it to those around him.

Wanderer woman (1793-1816)

In the fall of 1816, two entered the city of Alexandria, Virginia, a man and a woman, and the woman was clearly sick with typhoid fever. She needed an urgent medical assistance and her husband found a doctor. He came with several assistants, and the woman's husband told who they were, taking an oath from everyone present that none of them would reveal the travelers' incognito. The oath was taken, and the doctors really didn't reveal anything to anyone.

Soon, the woman nevertheless died, and her husband installed a stone tombstone with an engraved verse on her grave. Everyone who sees this grave understands that some kind of interesting riddle, which so far no one has been able to unravel.

Leather man (1839-1889)

This amazing vagabond made an endless journey around a 365-mile circle, the top and bottom of which were Connecticut and the Hudson River. The man spoke French fluently, but tried to communicate exclusively with gestures. He was dressed in all leather - from shoes to a hat.

Along the way, the "Leather Man" collected cigar butts, expressing gratitude to everyone who gave him tobacco in any form. He smoked and chewed tobacco, completing his entire circle in 34 days. In March 1889, the Leather Man was found dead in one of the caves. He died of oral cancer, apparently triggered by endless smoking and chewing tobacco.

Surprisingly, this vagabond constantly had money, which he spent on food, drink and tobacco. Even a receipt for the purchase of a number of products has been preserved. Who he is is still a mystery.

Arne Berling

Arne Berling is a Swedish mathematician, professor. In 1940, this person was able to decipher the code used by the Germans when it was necessary to transfer any data. The Nazis were convinced that their code could not be deciphered, but Burling was able to do this using only printouts of ciphers, pencil and paper. This code, incredibly complex, according to everyone who participated in the decryption, was solved by the scientist in just two weeks, without any outside help.

Burling did not discover the way he used to solve the code, saying: "Wizards do not reveal their secrets."

Edward Lindskalninsh (1887 – 1951)

This Latvian emigrant was known as an amateur sculptor. He was able, without the help of outsiders, to build a monument, which he named "Coral Castle". Lindskalnins is famous not only for this, but also for his original theories of magnetism. Being a very short person, about 150 centimeters, the sculptor created sculptures weighing several tons and somehow moved them around his park, creating a complex structure that corresponds to some kind of mathematical calculations and astronomical data. Total weight the creations he moved is about 100 tons.

To the question "How?" he replied, "There is nothing difficult if you know how to do it. If you do not know how, then you will not do it." After a while, the mysterious sculptor announced that he had solved the mystery of the construction of the Egyptian pyramids.

After a while, the sculptor decided to move, which was done. Edward took the rock garden with him, while, of course, he transported everything using a hired truck driven by a driver. However, he loaded and unloaded these stones himself, asking the driver to move away at the time of loading and unloading. He worked only after sunset. So far, no one understands how the 30-ton blocks were moved by a single person. And, in fact, why all this was done - no one understands either.

This mysterious man died in 1951 at the age of 64 from stomach cancer.

Antonio Stradivari (1644 – 1737)

Stradivari is a violin maker from Italy known to almost all of us. He created violins, which have no equal in sound and there is no one. Throughout his life, the master created about 1100 instruments, some of which have survived to our time, and belong to the most famous violinists... The cost of such a violin sometimes reaches several million dollars, and no modern master can create something similar.

No one - neither scientists nor masters of our time, have so far been able to find anything concrete that would explain such qualities of the famous Stradivarius violins. This man did not reveal his secret to anyone, taking it with him to the grave.
