Alex Trebek, isnt it? or was it a joke? Isnt he super-famous in the States? Over here thats a completely fair question, since not everyone knows who he is here..

This seems sort of amateurish (audio is a little racked up, editing could be better). Seems as though his brother is the one to put this together. Interesting subject though.

I found this unwatchable, even though I am extremely intrigued by the subject matter. If the volume is turned up loud enough to hear the dialogue, the inane beat of the music in between scenes blasts way too loud. Turn down the music, and you don't hear any voices. Unfortunate, because it looks interesting.

^My thoughts exactly. Note to film producer: pay more money for better quality/results.

Hmm, like Kim Peek but much less socially awkward.

The call me Mr. Google. Not because I can remember anything, but because I am a sensei of Google-Fu.

Yeah, i wouldn't say he is like Kim Peek. He has near-perfect recall, but he doesn't appear to have the social inabilities that go with with Kim Peek's condition. Interesting.

I remember when I first heard about this condition, I thought, man, wouldn't that be cool? Then I found out most people who have this are actually autistic and like Kim Peek, have several hindered social skills that renders then incredible knowledge useless. But this guy seems to be decently able to connect with society.
