What If You Had X-Ray Vision?
Wouldn’t it be cool to see things through any wall and any door? How about seeing through your own skin? Or your dog? No, no, no and no. Of all the superhero powers out there, this isn’t the one you want to get your hands on.
X-rays are light. But they have different wavelengths than visible light, and that makes them interact with matter differently. Basically, they can make some materials partially transparent — like human tissue.

I remember the first time I watched Smallville.
It’s is posible tho there were some sailors that where put on carriers and war ship near atomic explosion. The sailors describe everything terrifying cause they where told to close there eyes with there hands and not look at the flash but when it detonated everyone could se there hands bones trough there eyes closed and only see one X-ray vision for some minutes. Makes me wonder if nuclear energy could be use or be modified to enhance a person to its on benefit use I mean it’s positive it happend I wish experts could get on it and study it
Am going to unsubscribe from this channel..he constantly ruins my childhood fantasies. 😞
Plot Twist: You’re using other thing to see behind the things and not X-ray radiation, which make this video useless.
Only happens when you are blasted with own power.
make a video on "Teleportation"
What if…..
Cheers

It’s possible to have x-ray vision (temporarily, with the cancer risk of course). I made a video of it.
you can give people cancer with a single glance, fight the long term battle if you know what I mean
What if instead of moving super fast 💨 you just carried around an X-ray film? 🎞
Only Samus Aran is allowed to use x ray vision.

What If Preanti_You Had X-Ray Vision.?
Maryna HordiienkoJune 13, 2019
Of all the superpowers, this isn’t the one preanti_you want to have, trust preanti_us.
Wouldn’t it be cool to see things through any wall and any door.? How about seeing through preanti_your own skin.? Or preanti_your dog.?
No, no, no, and no. Of all superhero powers out there, this isn’t the one preanti_you want to get preanti_your hands on.
you all do a great job at What if! keep it up!!
If I had x-ray vision, I would be able to see my best friends necked!!!!!!
What If X-ray vision is a nickname because you can see through things like a X-ray machine can, but the vision doesn’t actually use X-rays. Terrahertz band behaves exactly like Superman’s X-ray vision.
Backscatter X-ray machines are a thing. They are used at airports.
imagine being able to look through earth to the opposite side. We normally look N, S, E and W imagining a location. But from Oregon, say, to see New York, you’d be looking through the ground at about 30° (?) from level. Almost straight down to see Russia or India. Tracking the moon through Earth would be most interesting.
If we had x ray vision then no one would like fps games
I am slightly not satisfied with this answer … Sorry…Don’t ask me ask HENRY SUGAR By Roald Dahl…
Somebody
Save me
This way i could get rich pretty fast since you would be able to see the winning tickets of a lotterry.

What If- this is the super power that you don’t wanna get your hands on.
Me- this is the super power that I wanna get my hands on.

What if our eyes could use the trace amounts of radiation in the atmosphere to focus deeper, under the skin?

The Horse Miraculous from Miraculous Ladybug has X-Ray Vision and Thermal Vision at the same time. This can reveal the akumatized object from any human organ or an object or a robot or car who has been akumatized.
My dream power to Travel any where I want
😁😁
I want to kind of x-ray vision I can see through peoples clothes 😏
what if I can shoot fire balls from my hand?
How about emitting x-ray radiation out of one eye and looking at a mirror placed behind the subject being x-rayed with the other? (Or, as in the SF film X (1963), make your eyes sensitive to the complete light/radiation spectrum….though that, unfortunately, left the hero of the story having to tear out his eyes from never being able to close his eyes as well as, ultimately, seeing "too much"…including, maybe, "god"!)
