Surat: Being more flexible lets a person reach places that are not easy to reach and pull off tasks with much less effort. Although this sounds like a great idea, how far can the human body possibly be stretched?

The story of Surat’s rubber man seems right out of a superhero movie as the 18-year-old is so flexible that he can rotate his head 180 degrees like an owl. Yash Shah can even turn his limbs as if there are no bones in his body.

Shah started training on his own in his mid-teens after getting inspired by American contortionist Daniel Browning Smith. His grandfather also played a part in convincing him.
