Since then, the desire to have special qualities - great strength or resistance - remained. And later this passion resulted in the production of machinery that manufacturers are trying to make a perfect and "LP".
The most enduring fictional characters and real people, representatives of the animal world and the technical invention - in our collection.
Eternal bride


The theme of endurance and perseverance, of course, could not remain indifferent people in the arts - the good, is where to turn. Over thirty years ago on the stage of "Lenkom" presented "Juno and Avos". At the heart of the rock opera - a love story of a young Russian Count Conchita and Rezanov. Upset future marriage Conchita, and later secretly married to a woman, the count was forced to briefly return to Russia for the trade mission. Back to the lover he has not reached - fell ill and died on the way. Meanwhile, tells a sad rock opera, Conchita showed miracles of patience and waited Rezanova as much as 35 years.

One in ten years


However, the theme of resistance are concerned not only musicians and poets, scientists and many of them dream to create a unique machine that would run forever - so-called "perpetual motion". Representatives of the Japanese company Matsushita Electric Industrial come close to solving this issue and in 2008 announced the world a new battery Evolta. Lifetime, which claimed the manufacturers, is amazing - neither more nor less than a full 10 years. It turns out that the package of 4 pieces enough for half a lifetime!

However, even among the people there are those who, because of their strength and endurance, able to do what others can not dream. The native Lithuanian Zydrunas Savickas can lift weights with one hand. His record - squats 400 kg and 1,000 kg in triathlon. And Savickas was recognized as the most powerful man in the world in 2009, 2010 and 2012. So the street with him is better not to engage in an open debate, and the handshake can be fraught with disadvantages.

Run, Forrest! Run!


If Savickas has remarkable strength, the next candidate will not give up in the rebellion. In 2012, an American marathoner Dean Karnazes 3 days run 560 kilometers without stopping. After 224 kilometers, he finally worn out the first pair of running shoes, and in 544 he had gotten a second wind. Doctors who examined Karnazes after a run, came to the conclusion that the purely hypothetical Dean can run at a speed of 160 meters per minute forever.

The tiniest athlete


Rating hardiest completes an absolute record - he is not only the strongest, but it is also the smallest animal habitats. This, of course, the ant. This ant is ready to lift the weight 50 times its own weight. This is facilitated by several factors: First, the skeleton of the insect, unlike the human, is not located inside and outside; and, secondly, it can distribute the load uniformly. However, if an ant were the size of a man, his legs would not sustain its own weight and buckled.
