The boy with the incredible brain

Published by blogsmith at 3:22 pm under Musings Edit This

Daniel Tammet is the boy with the incredible brain. He can recite all the 22,500 numbers of a pi after the decimal point flawlessly. He says he sees the numbers so technically, he doesn’t think to make calculations which is out of this world.

Apart from being able to do the most complicated mathematical problems, he also can learn a language in just a week. Incredible, isn’t it?

It’s so amazing how powerful a brain can be. Unfortunately, not all of us are gifted with such abilities like Daniel Tammet and the other savants.

But it’s also interesting to point that savant and autism have a strong link.
