Super Human Challenge

Episode 2: Anthony Kelly - Extreme Reactions

First broadcast: on CBBC ChannelLatest broadcast: on CBBC HD

Tim Fitzhigham meets the humans who defy science and puts their powers to the test - against himself. Tim meets Anthony Kelly, a man who holds 13 world records for his super-fast reactions, who is a master in ten martial arts and who can catch flying arrows with his bare hands - blindfolded! But does Anthony's extraordinary ability to react with lightning-quick speed make him a real-life Hawkeye? Tim challenges Anthony to three super tests in order to prove, or disprove, these ultra-fast superhuman powers.

Can Tim beat the man who holds the record of the fastest reaction time in the world and catch a flying arrow with his hands? This is exactly as dangerous as it sounds, so Tim uses state-of-the-art technology, real medical science and his very own mission doctor as he prepares for his challenges. Show less
