A woman from Russia previously claimed that she could see inside people's bodies because of a unique ability.
In 2004, Natasha Demkina was just 17 when she was invited by UK media to speak about her so-called 'superpower'.
Natasha claimed that she was able to look deep at the inside of people's bodies to detect if something sinister was going on.

As reported by The Guardian at the time, Natasha made an appearance on ITV's This Morning where she left an impression on Fern Britton for spotting her sore ankle.
She also told Chris Steele, the show's in-house doctor, that something was up with his kidneys, stomach and pancreas. After going for a scan, he came back with the all-clear.
Earlier on in the year, scientists invited the Russian to take part in an experiment to prove whether or not she had 'X-ray vision'.
"I was at home with my mother (aged 10) and suddenly I had a vision," she told the outlet. "I could see inside my mother's body and I started telling her about the organs I could see.
"Now, I have to switch from my regular vision to what I call medical vision. For a fraction of a second, I see a colourful picture inside the person and then I start to analyse it."
Now even though Natasha failed all of her tests during the experiment, it seems scientists still had a hard time figuring out what was up.
Richard Wiseman, a professional magician turned psychologist and paranormal investigator at the University of Hertfordshire, said: "At best, she's done this a lot and she has a real expertise at being able to look at people and make reasonably accurate diagnoses. But at worst, there's something else going on.
"I wasn't convinced there wasn't other stuff going on. When I saw her do her usual readings, I couldn't believe the discrepancy between what I was hearing and how impressed the individuals were.
"I thought they were going to walk away saying it was embarrassing, but time and again, they said it was amazing.
"Before each reading, I asked the people what was the main medical problem and Natasha never got one of those right."
Despite the results, Natasha reportedly continued to make money from her 'superpower' by charging a consultation fee for people who were interested.
"I don't think about how lucrative it could be. I just want people to accept me," she said. "The dream is, if I preserve my gift, to use it but on the basis of proper medical knowledge."
