1
This guy does not feel pain.
2
That's right.
3
You could break his arm, poke him with needles, or even hold his hand above fire.
4
And he would not feel a thing.
5
He is one of only 300 people on the entire planet who are like this.
6
Who is he?
7
Why can't he feel pain?
8
And what does he do when he gets a cut?
9
found Steven Peet.
10
- Hi, Nazdaily.
11
I'm Steven Peet, and I was born with CIP.
12
- Steven was born with a very rare condition called congenital insensitivity to pain, or CIP.
13
- CIP is extremely rare.
14
Only 1 or 125 million babies are born with this condition.
15
When Steven was a kid, his parents noticed something weird about him.
16
They saw that when he was teething, he would bite his tongue like all the other kids.
17
But unlike all the other kids, he didn't stop biting it when it started to bleed.
18
So, they took him to a hospital where doctors did some tests.
19
They poked him with needles and even held a lighter next to his little foot
20
and every time Stephen's skin bled and blistered He was smiling and calm
21
because he could not feel the pain back then nobody knew
22
about my condition doctors predicted I went live past seven and 11 or 15 years of age.
23
That's why when Steven was growing up, He was reckless.
24
He would jump from high places, push dares to the extreme, and do really dangerous stunts on his bike.
25
All because he knew nothing could hurt him.
26
My 25th birthday, so it was a good night.
27
Well, it was supposed to be a good night.
28
I just slammed my foot right into the wooden beam in the kitchen.
29
And then I woke up at 3 o 'clock in the morning, and that's when I noticed my foot was just swollen massive.
30
Yeah.
31
he's been alive.
32
And over the years he's realized that it's a miracle he survived.
33
The thing is, pain is your body's alarm system.
34
When you break a bone, you immediately know and stop what you're doing to take care of the injury.
35
But Steven's body is a house without an alarm system.
36
I don't even have a sense of smell because of CIP.
37
There was an instance where a friend got into my car And they told me they smell gas.
38
Gas.
39
That's why so many kids around the world with this condition don't survive.
40
Because they don't feel pain, they don't know when to stop.
41
But Steven wants people to know that having CIP doesn't have to be the end.
42
And he uses his social media to do just that.
43
I don't allow the condition to define who I am.
44
Stephen's story has given me a new appreciation for pain.
45
Even though it hurts, it's uncomfortable, it's annoying, it's actually what's keeping you alive.
46
So maybe instead of cursing it, we should be thankful that we can all feel it.
47
It's called NAS Academy.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
