Have you managed to live your entire life so far without having broken any bones within your body?
Well, if you answered 'yes', then you are very special, indeed - apparently, for four possible reasons.
Taking to Instagram recently, a self-professed medium and psychic named Rachel Stiles claimed there are several well-known conspiracy theories about people who've never broken a single bone.

One, she says, centres on the notion of protection. The second, suffering. Coming in third is a theory about reincarnation, and the fourth, connection. So, without further ado, let's dive in to theory numero uno.
Protection
The alleged prophet shared a video of her four theories on social media recently, explaining each in detail and sparking vast debate in the comments - beginning with 'Protection'.

"This theory means that you are being protected by people in the spirit world," she penned.
"Depending on what you believe, this could be a spirit guide, angel, or a loved one who has passed, protecting you from the other side."
Stiles then quotes the Biblical passage, Psalm 34, passages 19-20, which read: "The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from the all.
"He protects all his bones, not one of them will be broken."

Taking to the comments, one reader shared their own experience with this, teasing, 'lol broken bone and emotional suffering but I feel divinely protected', while another continued, 'I am 78 and never broken a bone and I know I have guardian angel'.
Suffering
According to Stiles, this theory hinges upon the basis that some people haven't ever broken a bone in this life because they are destined to hurt in an emotional capacity instead.

"To even the scales, you are given a stronger frame to bear the emotional suffering," she wrote.
By the sounds of things, this theory has hit several of the psychic followers right in the feels, with one writing in the comments: "No broken bones here. The emotional suffering is something else though."
Another jibed: "I got that premium emotional suffering package for sure hahahahaha."
Reincarnation
Reincarnation - otherwise known as either 'rebirth' or 'transmigration' - is the belief that a person's soul is reborn in a new body after death.

According to Stiles, not having broken any bones throughout the duration of your life so far could indicate, 'symbolically' that your 'soul has developed strong spiritual bones through past lives'.
She continued: "You may have already faced and overcome challenges that taught you resilience, making the need for physical injuries less relevant in this life.
"If your soul experienced significant physical trauma or injury in a past life, you may have chosen a life in this incarnation where physical safety is emphasised.
Connection
The last of Stiles' theory centres around the alleged sacredness of bones in many varying cultures around the world, and their connection to 'ancestral wisdom'.
"To never break a bone could signify that you are deeply connected to your ancestors," she wrote online. "And that their strength flows through you."
This theory seemingly resonated with a handful of her followers, one of whom told their 'divine' story.
"I’ve done everything but break a done - and always would get mad when I was little that everyone got a cast and I didn’t," they firstly confessed.
"Meanwhile I have ridden horses and jumped huge fences my entire life.. always sprains, strains and discomforts but never breaks. Many times I probably should have too. So wild. Divinely protected."
"I embrace with my entire being, the ancestors flowing through me for good & purpose," another claimed.
