I can see things that others can't
For example, whenever i see a football coming towards me, (even if it comes from behind) i can instantly dodge it, i have always been known for having great reactions, like this one time, this guy in my class took a reaction test, and he got 0,7 seconds, (i counted on my head i could have reacted withing 0,05 seconds. nobody else seems to have this kind of vision like me...but..it gets even weirder.
when for example i look at a helicopter, you cant see the propels going around in circles right, its way too fast to see? (propels i dunno, the wing things on top, im not that good in english. but, if i look at it and totally cleanse my mind of everything, i can see it amazingly slow, i can see them going around and around in super slow motion, and if i move my head or blink my eyes i am out of it and
its too fast to see. So i wonder, is there something about the mind or your vision that actually can make you see things slower? or is it just some stupid illusion?
also, in my entire life i could multiply huge numbers in my head, ever since i was in the 3-4th grade i calculated faster in my head than a high school math teacher with a calculator. Is there something seriously wrong with my head?
(on my tests i could read about 500 ++ words a minute in the 6th grade. im not sure how it is now though)
this might be in the wrong category, im not sure

But you are extraordinary, that's for sure.
Or maybe you are a dirty liar.
But anyway I would care to share a story that I had of similar experience:
My dog recently passed away and a few days after I was walking home from school and as I was walking down the street everything seemed to just freeze and in the very corner of my eye I could see her nudging my hand with her nose and I could even feel her wet nose rubbing against my hand. then shortly after everything returned to normal.
Also when I was about 3 I remember being asleep in my bed and something woke me up. Startled I looked towards the end of the bed and glaring at me like a monolith of death was a pure white coloured man holding some kind of sythe at the end of my bed just glaring at me so I ducked under the cover in fear and peeped out again.... and the man was gone. Could this mean... I am the next grim reaper...?
