I'm pretty shocked about hearing this.

 

Rainman was kinda, ok, i guess. But Kim Peek realy fascinated me.

 

 

His brain was truly IDM

 

He read a book in about an hour, and remembered almost everything he had read, memorizing vast amounts of information in subjects ranging from history and literature, geography, and numbers to sports, music, and dates. His reading technique consisted of reading the left page with his left eye and the right page with his right eye and in this way he could read two pages at time with a rate of about 8-10 seconds per page. He could recall the content of some 12,000 books from memory.
