[ WP ] For the first time ever , a person is born with a genuine superpower . They proceed to live out their entire life without noticing or realizing it .

He lived out his life unaware of it. It started in elementary school. He could always jump a little farther than everybody else. In middle school, he joined the track team, breaking all the records for the high jump in the first meet. In high school, he dominated states, achieving legendary status.They said he must be a medical marvel, a specimen of sorts. He surprised everybody by declining a track scholarship to Oregon, instead attending Duke, while all around him they criticized his decisions, saying he wasted his potential, life experiences most people would only dream of, chances at Olympic greatness. But still, he pressed on, graduating, marrying a beautiful woman, having two kids, while his name became lost in history under those who had taken a different path. Then as he became old and gray, and neared the end of his life, he expressed one final wish-to be taken by helicopter to the summit of Mount Everest. They said no, that the altitude would kill him, that his legs would go out below him due to his age. But he insisted, so they relented. The day came, and as the helicopter approached the roof of the world, disaster struck when high winds struck it. It went curtailing out of control, and as the man neared certain death at the hands of the jagged rocks, the memory struck him. The memory of jumping high, far off the ground. So he mustered up the strength he had left, limping toward the door, cracking it open enough to squeeze out, and jumped. Then something wonderful happened. He began to fly.
