erm, youre retarded.

einsteins iq was 160.

Go to the guinness book of world records and look up iq, thx.
if you guys could use google and post direct links to the maphacks here it would be greatly appreciated. - Nazgul

My buddy learned swedish in 3weeks, ohwell he could do some cursing and stuff until he started to learn it, but thats rather impressive. but I dont think he has a iq over normal.
The probable smartest person I've known was a alcoholic at 17 but I think he's still in university on some hardcore education. Many extremely intelligent people often suffer from mental problems and such.
I have the best fucking lawyers in the country including the man they call the Malmis.

orlandu what?
nothing special?
not a higher potential as a base than anyone elses?

I mean, I agree with you that intelligence (or, not intelligence, but IQ, is a pretty useless attribute. one of the people I respect the most and whom I consider the smartest would most likely score around 100, not any higher for sure, on an iq test. but she is more socially intelligent than everyone I know and yadayada. there are just so many kinds of intelligence..

but saying this guy was not special when he had an iq well over 200 is just flat out wrong. :D


I see what you mean. I didn't mean to discredit the guy. When I say he was nothing special, what I mean is, what he achieved wasn't something that couldn't be done by other people. He did do some great things apparently, but I don't think it's anything that is that impossible to do. It just takes the right motivation and the right way of life, it doesn't have as much to do with the individual person as people would like to have you believe.

Think about it a little harder. Analyze the world we live in. You might understand his point a little bit better.

Einstein had like 160-170. Hawkings is a little bit above that. And about the highest sane persons can have is 220-230 max. Above that are the freaks
