Not necessarily. ... ( 2 months ago by Truth3w3)
Not necessarily. That depends if you think sexual preference is learned, chosen, or it comes natually (at birth). If it is indeed at birth, which seems odd, but look at him, then it could have a tie....

what he has ... ( 2 months ago by abesh27)
what he has basically came from a single mutated gene.Just like mutated genes branched us humans off from monkey's evolutionary tree.mutations basically happen in living things,including humans,when there is a need to adopt to nature.therefore,if present day humans keep push themselves trying to study complex math or arithmetics,it's more than likely for future generations to have similar brains like this guy's!!
I could do the ... ( 2 months ago by MarkaBrauer)
I could do the decimal one it is not very hard. I am only 15.
The 34^4 would be pretty hard though. and easier way to do and what I imagine he did was take 40x34 every time and just subtract 204 because 40x34=34x34+204
and he could just do that 4 times and get the answer.
It would take me a little while but I could do it.
The date thing he can do though is quite amazing.
I am in all regular class's in school and I am around a 1.6-1.8 GPA but Mental Math is a very strong point of mine.

His abilities are ... ( 1 month ago by ombolobmo)
His abilities are mind-blowingly astonishing, but Savants actually lack one of the greatest aspects of the human brain, which is creativity. They can do amazing stuff such as calculating like computers, but they never grow to become mathematicians, artists, poets, engineers or inventors. They have no or very little creativity, which is a pity.

I saw this guy in another tv interview. he learn a difficult language in one week... amazing. if i remember right he's a savant not since birth, he had a cerebral apoplexy and after that he just had this skills. blessed. so this potential lies in every brain... the problem is how to unlock it. besides rain man, the movie phenomenon has the same savant topic. nice film.
