super-brain?

Extremely fascinating 6 min video on someone with Aspbergers who has amazing brain inter-connections that allow for incredible levels of cognition.

Particularly interesting to me was how he sees numbers as geometric shapes. I see people's personalities and energy interactions that way sometimes.


Edit: Per SD's note below, I fixed the link here.

That Link actually goes to the iceman section of those videos, but the whole series is worth pondering. In every single one, the mind is at work, even the Marathon man, who constantly needs to tell his body "no, I can go further." I love seeing these kind of stories and I always wonder why they don't get more showtime in the news. Although, truth be told, the iceman is so well documented that people are really starting to wonder about that ancient practice of his........

which is supposed to be family only, how the heck did he get them to teach him that?

I haven't seen the other videos in that series. I guess I'll have to check them out. See if I can fix that link later too...

Very cool I remember seeing a short article about him a little while ago.

I am become more and more fascinated with the development of psychic senses and that thin line between the physical and spiritual bodies. Synesthesia intrigues me and I wonder how it would relate or be similar to the psychic senses in that you often get more than one impression at once.

I didn't see the Iceman vid but is that the one where the guy walks around freezing places in shorts, up mountains, barefoot, etc?
