Extraordinary Minds
Daniel Tammet doesn't "calculate" mathematical equations, he just "sees"
the answers. He experiences numbers as "sparks of light,
landscapes, watery flashes..." and not as you and experience them.
He easily generates up to 100 decimal place answers to extremely
difficult mathematical equations. At age 23 he already speaks 9
languages and requires only 1 week to learn any new language. In
this fascinating video you will meet Daniel and watch as skeptical
scientists put him to the test. Then follow his travels to the US
where he is introduced to Kim Peek, the real life "rain man" about whom
Dustin Hoffman's movie "Rain Man" (2005) was based. This exciting and
touching story will stick with you and make you think more imaginatively
about the potential abilities that we all have locked inside of us.
