Do Heroes really exist?

This is an outcrop of the discussion at my job about the popular tv show, HEROES.  

Now I have never watched an episode of it, but from what I hear, it sounds pretty interesting. It draws me to the whole notion of superhuman powers being within the reach of humans.

For instance, I think that sometimes I am weird...(in a good way)

In 2002, I had a dream that I was hanging out on the shore of a lake with my old neighbors from my old block. We were kicking it, when one of themm, Justin,  (a dude I was never close to, but knew well) fell in, and got caught up in the undertow.  Renzo, another neighbor of mine, dove in to pull him back, but he went down.  After a few minutes, Renzo was able to drag his body back to shore, but it was too late.

 

Two days later, my neighbors went fishing.  Justin drowned. As was the style at the time, Justin was wearing super baggy denim jeans that soaked up the water and weighted him down.  I didn't go...but I was shocked nonetheless

Then a few months ago, I think in late April or early May, I had a dream I was standing on 91st street and 1st ave.  Never been there before, however I knew where the cafes were, the bodega, etc.  I turned, and saw a crane towering over a construction site. It was lifting some metal object really high and then it sorta snapped.  The crane toppled and I screamed as it went down....literally it was falling on top of me.

I woke up in a cold sweat, and I looked at the time. 6:00 AM. Hurriedly I dressed and ate some meager breakfast, and went to work. At the job, the radio was on, and the music was interrupted by an alarming report that a crane had collapsed, killing two and damaging millions of dollars worth of property. It took place on 91st street and 1st ave.

Another example was yesterday. I was able to describe to someone, in detail, all their personality traits and nuances, (favorite color, particular drink they enjoy, where they were born, etc)  all from pictures on their online social network profile. I shared this with my other friend and she also concurred with my assessment, having been the neighbor and friend of this woman for five years...which up until that point I did not know.

I have also jumped rooftops in the Bronx, that had 10 feet gaps between them. I kid you not.

So, I wonder, in the midst of all this...do I possess some unseen ability? Do you? Do we all?

Are there heroes among us?
