This guy is amazing how he does math. He can figure out math problems 100 decimal places.

The video also includes the real Rain Man.

    Oh, I see. I was going to complain that at my age I don't like being referred to as a 'boy.'

    Never mind. :-)

      Claude has often been billed as The man with the incredible girth. He can remember his daily calorie intake for the last ten months which he calculates in batches of 300 at a time (per mouthful)

      Yea, the video title was kinda odd. I guess they were referring to when the guy was a kid & had seizures.

          He was doing card counting and also doing intuitive mental jumps along the way with his thought processes. No question that he would not have made a fortune, except that the casino was doing this for the cameras and are well aware of card counters and how they operate. He also , had never played it before.

          It is well known that this game can be beaten if you are prolific at card counting. They are using eight decks too now so it's a lot more difficult to keep up with, and they spot it anyway and eject players that try it. Poker tournaments are pretty much the only way of winning these days provided your good at it.

    The first calculations look similar to a Korean math technique:
