a mighty question

Out of curiosity, and mostly out of my own kind of interest, I have been a fan of what people call now superheroes. (Personally, I just call them mystery men, 'cause I'm so stuck in the 1930s, haha.) Anyway. I've been doing some research on this real-life strongman from the 1920s and 30s. Joseph L. Greenstein, aka The Mighty Atom. To say he was a strong fellow is an understatement. He would bite iron nails with his teeth. He would tie airplanes to his hair and move the airplane with his hair.

But what I find most interesting about this individual, and you can look this up, this is well documented, he was being attack by this jealous guy who wanted his wife, so this man shot him in the head. Now, you would think he would be dead, but no, the bullet did not hurt him. He got it pulled out, went to the hospital, and he was fine. And he was reading on how people may have these death experiences but do not die, and he was studying on how people can have supernatural abilities.

So I guess my question is, how do I become this almost Mythic figure? I don't think I'm ever going to have bullets bounce off of me anytime soon, but I find it so interesting.
