This probably comes closest to an actual superpower:
Tummo. It’s part of Vajrayana Buddhism. Through intense meditation, breathing techniques and mental control, these monks can raise their body temperature and even dry wet sheets wrapped around their bodies in freezing temperatures like in the first video.

I consider being able to influence the course of reality with my mind to be a pretty shit-hot superpower. 
' Pure arse' . It amazes people ... and when I stop and look at it and think about ... it amazes me too .
It has benefited me in SOOOO many areas of my life . Observers are often amazed , my solicitor put it this way ( during a long court case in the Supreme Court ... where I managed to 'trounce' the prosecution; '' I cant believe it ... they keep trying to trap you and you ... without even seemingly knowing it ... fall into the river , and just happen to step on every hidden stepping stone as you stumble across to the other side and fall onto a silk cushion with a cocktail in your hand .''
- Explanation ;
1. Sheer Luck (Chiefly Australian and British Slang)
In countries like Australia and Ireland, "arse" is frequently used colloquially to mean luck. [, ]
Note the Chinese characters in the OPs name . '' Just spontaneously combusting, using fingers to ignite? '' is a common 'magical parlor trick ' used in many parts of Asia to supposedly demonstrate 'awesome chi powders .... I mean , powers '
( you see what I did there )

- Meaning: Getting a favorable outcome purely by chance, skill having nothing to do with it.
- Example: "I managed to fluke that winning shot in pool, but it was pure arse."

)he most common method involves placing a tiny amount of two incompatible chemicals inside a crumpled piece of paper. For example, potassium permanganate and glycerin, or specialized phosphorus mixtures, undergo an exothermic reaction when combined. The performer secretly introduces moisture or squeezes the paper to mix them, causing it to burst into flames after a short delay.

Damn that newspaper ! he had to scrunch it up FIVE TIMES ... first
I wonder if he can ignite a flat unscrunched up sheet of newspaper ?
- aside from the fact this is a film and there is an 'edit' / 'cut between him ripping the sheet in half ( at 3:38 ) and then having it on the ground in a scrunched ball ..... most people do not notice stuff like that
check out around 1;04 ... you can see the chemicals ignight and squirt out some sparks ... but even when he blows on it to try and get it to burst into flames .... no go . So he just makes a big show of the 'wind down ' .
The thing is these guys get so many followers , when a stage magician , who we KNOW is doing tricks and illusionas can operate 100 times better than this .
