I agree, the only real way is this:

OK,
Make a movie of a person rubbing their stomach in a circular motion with left while shaking their right foot in the opposite direction of the stomach rub and have that same person looking straight into the camera and also reciting Peter pumpernickel poem.

The above scenario would be difficult to steal and would assure that the same person is accessing any system.

Merely require the person to repeat the process until they get it right and then let them gain access.
OR
Use a disposable password like OPIE or that thing on the key chain.
OR
Let the hackers gain access to the stored data from your fingerprint or urine sample or eye measurement and let them use that same data to confirm it is in fact you.

I think the disposable password is probably a better security measure, as long as it is fingerprint activated.

OHH, By the way, I did not intend to be taken serious on the first option, Unless you think it will work.
