How to check the "punch" of a person an individual on the Internet online.

Incredible Facts

Can you imagine a world where there is no deceit? It is unlikely that someone will have enough imagination to realize how much we will lose or how much we will gain if we stop lying to each other. Man lies every day, so the skills to bring the interlocutor to clean water will be useful to everyone.

Moreover, each of us once made mistakes in people. At such moments, we think about how it was possible not to immediately notice that a person is unreliable, and one cannot rely on him. And it also happens that we simply cannot find a common language with someone, because we did not bother to observe a person in order to create his portrait.

But how do you really know a person? Colleague, potential partner, friend? There are a lot of articles on the Internet, like "ask these questions to get to know a person for real." But how do you imagine it? You sit a person in front of you and start interrogating? Not many people will agree to this.



The other extreme is to believe that a person can only be known over a long period of time. However, coach John Alex Clark is sure that the key in this matter is not time, but observation and the ability to link the information received into one chain.

There are some very simple and at the same time powerful tricks that will help you identify patterns in human behavior and find out his character. Let's talk about them.

How to recognize a person

1. Notice the details


Every day a person performs a huge number of routine actions: he buys food, rides in transport, speaks on the phone, etc. A person's actions can shed light on his personality, as well as help predict how he will behave in a given situation.

Example A. If a person chooses the same dish every day in a cafe, then he probably eschews change, and he does not like the state of uncertainty. Such people can be faithful and devoted spouses. But on the other hand, it will be extremely difficult to convince him to make risky investments or move to another country.


Example B. People who enjoy gambling and other risky activities are more likely to take risks in other areas of life as well. For example, such a person may quit his job without finding another and without thinking about financial security during the period of unemployment.

Example V. A person who always looks both ways when crossing the road is most likely prudent and cautious. He will carefully consider every little detail before making any decision, and will only take well-calculated risks.

That is, if you analyze the actions of a person in one area, you can understand how he will behave in other areas.

2. Pay attention to how the person communicates


How does your interlocutor behave in communication? Does he try to build relationships with each person, or does he single out those who are close to him in spirit, and keep the rest at arm's length? Does he talk without a clear plan, on a whim, focusing on impressions, or does he constantly analyze, tries to be objective and does not trust intuition?

Is the person more of a thinker, relying on concepts, images, schemes and ideas, or is he more of a practitioner living in a world of measurable values, tasks and facts? If you observe everyday words and behavior, you will be able to trace the general line.

3. Talk to the person about relationships with mutual acquaintances, contacts at work


Many people think that gossip is an empty activity, devoid of any meaning. However, the main thing in this matter is what qualities the interlocutor gives to other people, how he explains their behavior. Often, when we talk about other people, we unconsciously notice what is present in ourselves.

These conversations will help us understand what we value in the people around us, who we want to be like, and also what we want to change in ourselves. The more often we say of others that they are emotionally stable, happy, kind-hearted, or polite, the more likely we are to have these characteristics ourselves.

If a person says about another that he is pretending to dig a hole for someone, then this may mean that such a person is prudent and builds only relationships built on momentary gain.

4. Feel the existing boundaries


When a person wants to build a relationship, he sees the good and ignores the bad. However, sooner or later, the illusions will dissipate anyway, and the person will appear before you in all its glory. A person who knows how to communicate correctly, first of all, will look for not good in the interlocutor, but his boundaries.

If the opponent is kind, where does the kindness end? He wants to help, but where does this desire stop? If he is sincere, when will it start to get dark? He is tolerant of the mistakes of his subordinates until what point? Honest with your clients? And what if we are talking about a sum with a large number of zeros?

Adequate, sober-minded, understanding, reasonable? Where is his limit, beyond which he turns into a madman?

5. Pay attention to the behavior of a person in a critical situation


When force majeure happens, a person shows himself in all his glory, he simply cannot play or dissemble. He does not have time to put on a mask, and therefore begins to behave as his instincts want.

How to really get to know a person

6. Pay attention to his attitude towards the staff


People with whom life has been unfair, in their opinion, have a habit of taking it out on the attendants. Sellers, waiters, cleaners - everyone gets it. If your interlocutor calls the waiter with a snap of his fingers or a whistle, then this is the first sign that the person is at least poorly educated with all the consequences.

7. Watch intonation and body language


There is a lot of information on the Internet about body language. Liars are recognized by some signs: they pause in conversation, change the topic of conversation, begin to make excuses, even if there is no reproach, look away when answering a question, often touch their face.

Every man is a bright and unique individuality. Unlike us women, they are beings from Mars who are more strong-willed, determined, and strong. But they, like us, have their weaknesses. It is no secret that, knowing the weaknesses of a strong man, you can play on them in your favor. So, 10 ways to find out everything about a man by how he spends his free time:

Solving crossword puzzles

An avid crossword puzzler is likely to become a good husband. I don’t promise love to the grave, but such a man, as a rule, is characterized by independence in decision-making, reliability, housekeeping. Crossword puzzles are a good exercise for the left hemisphere of the brain, which is responsible for analytical skills. So, dreamers and people in the clouds are rarely addicted to crossword puzzles. And they rarely become reliable husbands! But the lover of guessing words is distinguished by sanity and practicality. He is able to become the backbone of the family. And in general it is better to have such people among your supporters than among your enemies.

Lotteries, contests, gambling

A person affected by the gambling virus hopes that happiness will fall on his head for no reason at all. And instead of working honestly, he seeks to catch luck by the tail. He collects membranes from coffee cans, cuts out fragments of houses from yogurt bags, squanders the budget on lottery tickets, develops a system to combat the "one-armed bandit", forgetting about his direct duties. People who believe in luck or their chosenness often become victims of "financial pyramids". And the most annoying thing is that life does not teach them anything ...

workaholism

If a person even devotes his free time to work, you should not be touched by this. This is not devotion to one's work, as is commonly believed, but a way to hide from problems in one's personal life. The person to whom the labor collective has replaced the family is deeply unhappy. A big salary and a high position in society should not be the only goal in life. Old age and loneliness will put everything in its place. No matter how respected a person is, having retired, he will remain useless to anyone. Even relatives are likely to run away from him.

Fishing, hunting, pets

These hobbies speak of a person's love for nature. Pet owners often make good parents - caring but demanding. But the passion for fishing and especially hunting should alert a potential wife. Such a man will regularly leave home for several days. And there is no way to control it. In addition, whatever they say, hunting, if it is not a way of obtaining food, brings up cruelty in a person. A man with a hunting rifle feels like the master of nature. Similar relationships are observed in the family of hunters. Thank God, they do not shoot their wives and children, but they are practically incapable of treating household members as equals.

Collecting

Every collector is a bit of a maniac. It takes a special mindset to dedicate one's life to searching for some ancient Roman coin or an antique beer cork. Such husbands live a double life. And it is extremely rare for “happy” wives to occupy them with pressing problems. He lives in his own world...

Needlework

If a man is a jack of all trades, it's nice. He sits at home, cuts wooden spoons or glues houses from matches. Nerves are calm, the house is full of useful (and even useless) things. By the way, about the nerves. Monotonous work is accepted as the basis of therapy in some psychiatric institutions. So, appreciate your Samodelkin. He certainly has a strong psyche, he rarely shows aggression. But if you deprive him of what he loves, he can go out into the street and offend someone. If you are not annoyed by his habits - go ahead!

Restaurants, clubs, trips to visit

"Secular lions" easily charm women. They have a lot of interesting acquaintances, they are constantly invited somewhere, while ordinary people are lying around in front of the TV. But a frequenter of drinking parties - parties - a person for a normal family life is not suitable. He does not know how to plan his expenses (how not to treat good friends!). If he himself is not used to paying, then, having wrapped a woman, he will strive to live at her expense. In addition, the manic passion for communication is also a kind of mania. Although, it is necessary for couples to get out of the house together, spending time with benefit, for each other, getting to know each other from new sides. In the meantime, you can walk around day and night.

A computer

The scourge of modern women. In big cities, he is our number one enemy. Most men spend a lot of time behind this miracle of technological progress. Someone is fond of games, someone works, someone communicates. And when a man has a living girlfriend, he often regrets that she cannot be turned off.

Self improvement

Men don't like to be themselves - it's too boring. Therefore, many of them try to be supermen. Some spend hours in gyms pumping up their muscles, others do martial arts, and some even go to the East to comprehend themselves. Sometimes their psyche can not stand it, and they begin to consider themselves great sages. When unfed children run around a man sitting in a lotus position, it's sad. Potential mothers-in-law can smell (!) such characters from a mile away and try in every possible way to ward off their daughters from them. "Mom told me! .."

". It tells about a world in which no one knew how to lie. Once, something broke in the brain of one inhabitant of this world, and he uttered the first lie. In order not to spoil the impression of the film, I will not tell you further and I advise you to watch it to find out how our world could look without lies.

And since in the real world there are more than enough lies and deceit, here are a few ways to deal with them and bring the person you do not trust to clean water.

Observe a person in a critical situation

When a person has to act in a critical situation, he cannot dissemble or play. He doesn't have the ability to use masks and will most certainly act as his instincts dictate.

People who have been offended by life, most often break down on the attendants. Waiters, cleaners, salespeople - they all get it. If a person whistles or snaps his fingers to the waiter, this is the first sign that your interlocutor is an idiot.

Watch your body language and intonation

It's easy to find. Liars can be recognized by several signs:

  1. Pauses in conversation.
  2. Averting eyes when answering a question.
  3. Change of topic of conversation.
  4. They make excuses even when you don't blame them.
  5. Often touching the face.

Of course, you should not overdo it and follow every gesture of the interlocutor. But sometimes this little cheat sheet helps bring to light.

Gossip about mutual friends

We love gossip more or less. And, unfortunately, we often do not know the measures in them. Gossiping about common acquaintances, you will see with your own eyes how much shit can pour out of a seemingly good person.

Lend or borrow money

And although we have already talked about what is the last thing you should think about, but by borrowing or lending money to a person, you can learn a lot about him.

Take a trip together

extreme way. If you are already thinking about how to bring a person to clean water, then going on a trip with him is not the best idea. But, after spending some time alone, you will see all his cockroaches.

Tell a secret

By telling a secret, you test a person's ability to keep secrets. If you don't trust him, then you can tell a trifling secret or a made-up secret, just to see if he runs to retell it further.

Have there been situations in your life when you needed to understand what a person really is? How did you do?

Many are interested in the question of how to find out more information about a stranger. And sometimes it's not just curiosity. For example, you conclude some important contract with a person, but you know absolutely nothing about it. The most important transactions are usually related to real estate, as well as high-value movable property (for example, a car).

If you use the Internet wisely, you can find a lot of information about almost any person. In this article we will figure out how and where this can be done.

A warning: Do not trust sites that promise to provide information about a person, but in return you will need to enter your mobile phone number, some other data or pay money. This is done to deceive you. In other words, they are scammers. A lot of information can be found for free online.

Checking the validity of the passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation

On the website of the FMS (Federal Migration Service), you can legally check the validity of your passport ( http://services.fms.gov.ru/info-service.htm?sid=2000).

To do this, you need to enter a series (the first 4 digits) and a passport number (6 digits after the passport series) into certain fields.

The first 4 digits (passport series) indicate the region of issue and the year of the passport blank. For example, series 50 04 means that 50 is the Novosibirsk region according to OKATO (All-Russian classifier of objects of administrative-territorial division), 04 is a 2004 sample passport form.

If you did everything correctly, then the following message will appear:

Find out the TIN (individual tax number) of a person

For this you need to know:

  • Surname Name Patronymic,
  • date of birth,
  • series and number of the passport, as well as the date of issue of the passport.

If all the data is entered correctly, you will see the TIN number:


If a person does not have a TIN (which is rare), the following message will appear:


TIN consists of 12 digits. The first 2 digits are the code of the subject of the Russian Federation in accordance with the constitution of the Russian Federation, the next 2 are the tax inspection number, the next 6 are the number of the taxpayer's tax record, the last 2 are control digits for checking the correctness of the record.

Is the person an individual entrepreneur (individual entrepreneur)?

  • the date of entry of the termination of activities;
  • which tax office registered;
  • information about the types of activities according to OKVED (what the individual entrepreneur does);
  • series, number and date of the certificate.

Now let's decipher the OGRNIP (the main state registration number of an individual entrepreneur). This is a number that consists of 15 digits.

For example, 309547531400056.

The first number can use the values ​​3 and 4. This is a sign of assigning the state registration number of the record. 3 means that the sign refers to the main state registration number of the entry on the state registration of an individual entrepreneur (OGRNIP), 4 - to another state registration number of the entry.

The 2nd and 3rd numbers are the year the entry was made in the state register.

4th and 5th numbers - the code of the subject of the Russian Federation.

6-14 numbers - the number of the entry made in the state register during the year.

15 is the last number for checking.

Checking a person through social networks

Today, almost every one of us is registered in social networks. And from any person’s account, you can “pull out” a lot of interesting information. This has long been used, for example, collectors.

In Odnoklassniki, the audience is older, Vkontakte is mainly young people (schoolchildren, students, young people under 30).

The Russian audience of Facebook, of course, is not as large as Vkontakte or Odnoklassniki, but it also deserves attention.

My World is convenient for those who have @mail.ru mail.

Checking a person through the search engines Yandex, Google, Mail, Rambler

If you use ordinary search engines wisely, then with a certain perseverance and system analysis, you can find information of interest about a person.

As you know, there are 2 major search engines - Yandex and Google. There are many other systems, but the most powerful and modern search algorithms are used in these two search engines.

You can search not only by full name, but also by phone, e-mail, and other known parameters. You can search for girls by their maiden names.

The phone number can be dialed in different interpretations: +7 923 XXX XX XX, 8923ХХХХХХ, 8-923-ХХХ-ХХ-ХХ, etc.

Photo search

There are several interesting services on the Internet that allow you to search for information from photographs. The algorithm is as follows: you upload a photo of a person to a search engine, and it gives you results where this image is still used (links to sites). These services will also be useful for photographers who may find illegal use of their photos.

Thus, having just a photograph of a person, you can most likely find data about him.

We list the most interesting resources:

  • https://images.google.com - search for photos on Google (you can upload an image or provide a link to it)
  • https://yandex.ru/images/search - search from Yandex by pictures
  • http://www.tineye.com - English image search engine
  • Search by photos Vkontakte. Few people know, but with the help of the social network Vkontakte, you can search by photos. To do this, go to My News > Photos. The search is carried out by the text in the descriptions of the photo and the text on the photo, which is entered in the editor.

You can also search Vkontakte for similar photos. With it, you can search for those, for example, who stole your photos. To do this, in the search for a photo, type copy: photo-52630202_306002782. Photo-52630202_306002782 - this is part of the link of the photo for which we are looking for duplicates (copies) on other accounts.

Verification of the document on education

First of all, this will be of interest to employers in order to protect themselves from specialists in purchased diplomas.

You can check in the Federal Register of information about documents on education and (or) qualifications, documents on training on the website

The right to be forgotten. Removing information about a person from search engines.

On January 1, 2016, Federal Law No. 264 of July 13, 2015 “On Amendments to the Federal Law “On Information, Information Technologies and Information Protection” and Articles 29 and 402 of the Civil Procedure Code of the Russian Federation” came into force.

This law is also referred to as right to be forgotten law».

The essence of this law is as follows: at the request of a citizen, the search engine must remove from the search information about the applicant that is distributed in violation of Russian law, unreliable information, irrelevant, that has lost its meaning for the applicant.

Exceptions: information about criminal offenses, if the terms of prosecution have not expired, and information about a crime committed, if a conviction has not expired, cannot be deleted.

The search engine operator is obliged to remove the information within 10 days. Refusal to delete information can be appealed in court.

It is also necessary to understand that the information itself is not physically deleted from the Internet. Issuance of links to this information is removed from the search. And if anyone knows this link, he can go directly to it and see this information.

If you have interesting additions to this article - write in the comments.

The appearance of a person can give out certain personal characteristics and preferences! How?

We hear a lot about not judging a book by its cover. But in relation to people, things are somewhat different. The appearance of a person can give out certain personal characteristics and preferences.

All that is required is the ability to correctly interpret them. As in the previous cases, the methods described below are not 100% accurate, and there is always the possibility of their error. Nevertheless…

1. Shoes can reveal a person's personality type.

Let's note right away that we are not talking about the obvious, such as goths or metalheads in black boots, hippies in sandals or hipsters in old curtains wrapped around their legs. According to science, a person's shoes can tell about his relationship with other people.

A study conducted at a couple of colleges revealed certain patterns in how people choose shoes. Of course, she could not tell about political preferences, but she gave out a ton of other personal information, including potential insecurity and dependence in close relationships. Here are just a few of the examples described by science:

  • Restless and dependent people prefer to wear new and well-maintained shoes to calm their nerves.
  • People who wear practical shoes tend to be relatively pleasant to talk to.
  • Calm and collected individuals find pleasure in seemingly uncomfortable shoes.
  • And aggressive personalities tend to wear uniform boots with berets to the ankles.

If, after reading this, you thought that your shoes can’t tell anything so personal about you, since when buying you are guided, say, by its price and convenience, then do not forget that your way of thinking is natural for a certain type of personality. And that's the whole point. Regardless of what logic you follow when choosing certain shoes, boots or boots, you follow exactly the logic that matches your personality type. And the purchase reveals this type to the whole world.

2. Pleasant people are more likely to eat sweets.

Imagine a pleasant person to talk to. And pay special attention to those qualities that make this person pleasing in the eyes of other people. Most likely he is kind and helpful. Definitely hilarious. Surely honest and flexible enough to take hits while you yourself get away from a wrestler who has his ass flashed in a drunken stupor. All this is quite consistent with the image of a pleasant person. And perhaps, if you're feeling sentimental, you'll even call it "sweet."

Sweet. It's a pretty ironic word in this context, if you think about it. There is nothing sweet about nice people, unless you suddenly decide to cover them with caramel. And what gave rise to such an association between "sweet" and "pleasant"? Obviously, their daily behavior: it seems that eating sweets can turn a person into an ordinary Good Samaritan.

Let's make it clear right away that we are not talking about how a gift of chocolate can cheer up a person and thus make him want to do good things (by the way, one study confirmed this fact, although it is quite obvious in itself). Scientists conducted five different studies and found that sweet lovers are more pleasant and do good deeds more often than those who eat chips during a snack, for example.

And what is most surprising, the participants in the experiment knew in advance what the result would be. In a survey conducted before the start of the experiment, they expressed the idea that lovers of sweets would be more selfless and kind than lovers of salty. The experience only confirmed what people already knew and observed in everyday life, even if this did not make any sense.

3. If a woman lulls a baby with her right hand, then she is depressed.

The birth of a child is supposed to be the happiest moment in the life of any mother, but according to statistics, one woman in ten suffers from postpartum depression. And, perhaps, this is not surprising, because she really experiences a lot of stress, both physically and psychologically, not to mention the fact that the little peanut constantly yells when she tries to sleep.

So if you suddenly have a friend or relative who has recently given birth, and you want to know how she is feeling, you can either ask her or look at which hand she holds the baby with. No kidding.

Find your baby photos and see which hand your mother uses to lull you to sleep. Or just imagine holding a baby. Which hand will you use? Most likely the left. The vast majority of people use their left hand for this, regardless of whether they are left-handed or right-handed. This is one of those little quirks that are inherent in the human body.

When the scientists began to study the topic in more detail, they found that it could serve as a potential way to determine whether a new mother is depressed or not. Stressed and depressed mothers are much more likely to lull their babies with their right hand than healthy and happy mothers: 14% of happy mothers versus 32% of depressed ones. Although scientists still find it difficult to explain the reason for this.

We mentioned last time that people with wide cheekbones tend to be less trustworthy. It looks like an unfair stereotype, but in reality it's just chemistry - the more testosterone, the larger the face. And the amount of testosterone directly determines the type of your personality.

Also, the classic image of a jock with a can of beer in his hand has already managed to gain a foothold in society: a large, broad-faced guy with an eternal grin and rough features. This type of face can be found in many American youth films. He wears his sports team jacket, sips beer, speaks dumb slang, and bullies the girls at school, making you feel like a loser who takes years to figure out you weren't really one. But in certain situations, this badass-looking guy can actually be quite nice... as long as he thinks you're on the same team as him.

Such people do what they do not because they are cruel. They just have a strong spirit of competition.

To determine this, the scientists divided the male volunteers into groups and asked them to play a team game. At the same time, some were told that their results would be compared with the results of another school, while others played just for the sake of playing. As a result, guys with the classic "hooligan" faces were more likely to risk their health in order to take first place among the teams ... but only when they were told that they were competing with another school. They were willing to be more altruistic when they thought it would help them win.

Other studies support this theory. As long as the sense of competition is maintained, the bully-faced guy will be more productive, cooperative, and even more willing to sacrifice himself for the team he considers his. And by the way, this extends to higher levels of life: from corporate presidents to presidential candidates, these idiotic, rough and wide features give their owners a strong desire to win, and all because of the amount of testosterone they received in the womb.

If it makes you depressed to think that a person's fate is to such a large extent determined even before they are born... well, we have worse news for you.

5. People with symmetrical features are rich, people with asymmetrical features are leaders.

Science often likes to remind us of the superiority of symmetrical faces, but the reality is even worse: people with symmetrical features not only look better, but they are also likely to be richer than people with asymmetrical features.

On the other hand, the latter have more developed leadership qualities.

Genes, of course, have a considerable influence on this issue, but they are only at the beginning of the path to the formation of facial symmetry. The determining role is played by the conditions of human development. Everything, including cigarette smoke, baby food, socioeconomic status and illness, has an impact on your face, so the easiest way to achieve symmetrical beauty is through wealthy parents.

The results of one study show that people with symmetrical facial features in most cases in childhood lived a privileged life and thus were more likely to become wealthy people themselves.

But, let's say that a person grew up poor and turned into one of the commoners with asymmetrical facial features. He doesn't have a trust fund or a flawless smile, so now he can only rely on his own personal qualities. Moreover, just because this person is not as attractive as Symmetrical, people expect less from him of any achievements in life.

And coincidentally, this is what makes him a more successful leader.

That's right, an endless string of small problems and hardships, which, thanks to an angelic appearance and a thick wallet, will never be experienced by people with symmetrical facial features, make this person a truly effective leader. Of course, this does not mean at all that he automatically becomes Winston Churchill. It just means that he is predestined to become one. Therefore, if you suddenly meet a person with scars on his face in a bar, do not rush to put him at the head of your multinational company.

How to learn something personal about the interlocutor by his appearance

There is a connection between physiology and human nature

Which of us, reading about the adventures of Sherlock Holmes, did not envy his ability to figure out the whole ins and outs of people, paying attention to the smallest details of their appearance? Of course, life is much more complicated than the most sophisticated literary fiction, and even very insightful people are unlikely to be able to achieve the perfection of the great detective created by Arthur Conan Doyle. However, there are some patterns that allow you to determine character traits or health status based on the physiological characteristics of a person.

1. According to statistics, women with wide hips are less scrupulous in choosing partners.

An amazing fact - by the width of a woman's hips, you can estimate how likely it is that your first date will end in sex. This is evidenced by the results of a study conducted by employees of the University of Leeds (UK). The researchers studied several aspects of female volunteers' sexual behavior, including the number of sexual partners and the age at which they lost their virginity, and then checked how these indicators correlated with the physical parameters of their waists, hips and buttocks. It turned out that the fair sex with wide hips, as a rule, more often practice "sex without obligations", while women with narrow hips are more prone to long-term relationships and are more careful in choosing partners.

Of course, the objectivity of such a study leaves much to be desired - it is quite possible that the participants simply exaggerated the activity of their sexual life. However, scientists argue that this phenomenon can be explained by biological factors - women with a wide pelvis often have much less problems with the birth of children, so nature itself sets them up for procreation.

2. Sex with obese men tends to last longer.

According to data published in the International Journal of Impotence Research, overweight men are less hasty in sex than slender men. Experts from Turkey have been studying the sex life of men of different builds for a year, and it turned out that full lovemaking lasts an average of 7 minutes 18 seconds, and thin people more than four times less - about 1 minute 43 seconds.

One of the reasons for this may be the fatigue of obese men, which does not allow them to bring sexual intercourse to its logical conclusion on the first attempt, but there are other factors. Obese people often have an increased level of the female hormone (estrogen) in the body, which in some way “slows down” the male body, as a result, ejaculation occurs later. At the same time, it should be noted that men who want to please their partners with prolonged sex should not rush to gain excess weight, since erectile dysfunction is one of the most common side effects of obesity.

3. The color of the eyes can be judged on the predisposition to the sport

As you know, in some sports, success is most often achieved by people with certain physical indicators - for example, to be a professional basketball player, you must have a height above average, and, say, in American football they prefer to take only firmly knocked down, strong guys. Less obvious physical features, such as eye color, can also indicate future outstanding achievements in sports.

The results of several experiments show that people with brown eyes are more likely to succeed in sports that require a quick reaction, including tennis, football or boxing. Blue or green eyes, in turn, are a sign that a person is more suitable for leisurely sports disciplines that require strategic thinking - say, golf, chess or bowling.

Such a curious effect is explained by physiology - bright eyes are more sensitive to sunlight, which complicates the processing of visual information and slows down decision-making for a split second. A simple example - a blue-eyed boxer can be confused even by a glare on the referee's watch, as a result of which he will miss a strong blow, while a brown-eyed boxer in his place would not even pay attention to a visual stimulus.

4. Earlobes 'predict' heart attacks

Cardiovascular diseases are one of the main problems of modern mankind. Their development is significantly influenced by factors such as lifestyle, diet and bad habits, but there is a rather unusual method to immediately determine a person's propensity for a heart attack - pay attention to the shape of his ears.

If there are diagonal folds on the earlobes, which doctors call the "Frank sign", this is a sure sign of a predisposition to the development of cardiovascular diseases. It sounds like something from the realm of fantasy, but such folds really make it possible to judge heart problems. In one study of this phenomenon, doctors examined the bodies of more than three hundred patients who died from heart disease, while "Frank's signs" were found in 72% of men and 67% of women. Later, other experts questioned the value of this experiment and set up their own. The researchers took into account factors such as the presence of jewelry in the ears and even the sleeping posture, but they were forced to admit that there is some connection between the wrinkles in the earlobes and heart disease.

While there is no scientific explanation for such a mysterious phenomenon, experts are at a loss and continue to experiment.
