But This Was Real


I recently watched a documentary on SAVANTS In particular, Daniel Tammet, whose mathematical abilities As well as other astounding mental capabilities Will not only blow your mind You'll probably say to yourself, “this is some kind of trickery What he does is impossible for the human brain to comprehend” Yet when matched against a computer He is able to do calculations up to 100 decimal places in his head Without a single number out of place He is also able to learn a new language within a week And then appear on television and carry on a conversation In that language with ease to the utter astonishment Of those conducting the interview I'm aware there are skeptics out there... BUT THIS IS REAL In his middlle thirties he possessed extraordinary mental abilities That defied all logic or comprehension
