He could have at least asked in a nut shell what is the Laplace operator for? And what is the Green's function? And what are showing a capacity of electric charge right? I think the interviewer had a very tight segment time. Which stinks.
Still waiting for him to 'disprove relativity and the big bang' like he stated years ago. Seriously though he seems promising, I hope makes a worthwhile contribution to our understanding of the universe.
He has definitely studied a lot and is very smart, however he most likely is a bit arrogant about his intelligence or reaches a bit far with those claims. Haven't heard from him in a long time.
I agree to the fullest. And yes i absolute have no idea about the truth but i've just chosen one to believe in. And that was by instincts and it was like my own heart told me that it was the truth... I dont really know but i agree that we dont have an explanation and a lot of them might be false too.
AT clearly she did something right. Look at Chris Langan. A genius who was raised in a abuse and social ostracism. They don't always become successful.
Well he has autism .so give some respect guys :) I don't believe in a good neither do I believe in scientists ..they all talk stuff anout things to matter and answer but einstein is rad ..and indigos are too :)
I think its a shame that they're so baffled by his age that they don't pay attention or even ask about any of the ideas he has. I want to hear about this kid's theories, not how far beyond the rest of us he is.
His story is getting old?? Then stop reading into it! For fucks sake. Just because you're not interested in it anymore doesn't mean u should throw negativity his way. It makes me sick that we have geniuses growing up in a world of people just waiting to belittle the efforts of the geniuses.
@4 ever YOU are crazy for buying that absurd story. That poor girl was ditched after the money they got for adopting her ran out. Abused then accused. Revolting
This kid is no genius. Real geniuses revolutionized the whole world. Still waiting to see an actual genius in this video, all he did was recite information he studied.
What is mother is saying is bullshit though. He's a genius through nature, not nurture. She didn't do anything special to make him that way. His high iq is lucky genetics, that's all.
Who's here 2019 watching after the neglect case against the Barnetts?! When this show was put out, they'd already abandoned their adopted disabled 8 year old in an apartment by herself. Sorry kid. Idgaf about your algebraic equations! Ms Barnett, its a shame you didn't see any "spark worth nurturing" in the child you adopted.
Not to hate on this guy, I admire what he is doing. But I simply cannot believe that a 3-year old would know anything about gravity, and mass, and it's relation to the moons around mars, let alone understand these things.
He can apparently visualize equations and numbers. Don't feel stupid if you can't do that because...nobody else on the planet has ever claimed to be able to do this before. In another video he describes what he means by this and he says when he thinks about numbers he sees them in his head. Not like the way you see 7 as an rotated down L, he sees something else completely. I don't know if that's what he was doing when he was making that diagram on the piece of paper but that's how it is for him.
HalfTimesTwo Not quite true. He took the physical setup: An infinitely long cylindrical capacitor, and used some conformal (angle preserving) mapping to simplify the problem. This is standard practice when dealing with tough electrostatics problems.
People don't like math , because of the way it's taught. There is generally a lack of intuitive examples in describing what's happening in an equation. Math be taught with creative empirical models/analogies, but instead there is a reliance on extremely verbose and convoluted abstractions; perhaps for the sake of being abstract (ie; "I'm the opposite, of the opposite of being tall") A type of "art-pour-la art", as John Von Neumann would call it.
Why talk, when nobody understand what you're saying, in the end they will send you to a quack, in the year Einstein was living , i wouldn't say,that was the best century to be born
Every -intelligent- person, as well as how they are raised, is different. Einstein might have not wanted to speak until he came to a certain level of consciousness, but it doesn't mean that children who start speaking at average ages, or very early, are not intelligent. It really depends on 'you'. There are many very intelligent people who do nothing for the sake of science or humanity, as Jacob Barnett mentioned at his TEDx talk. In conclusion, smartness is worthless without work.
I'm not seeing the correlation of the mother's raising vs his brilliance in math/physics... He did this himself out of her own mouth then it's her raising... oh come on lol.
He did math/physics on his own (as she said), but she allowed and gave opportunity to him to do the things he wanted (like going to the planetarium). A lot of parents don't do this. This is important because parents play a huge role in child's life. It's that she raised him in a way that ALLOWED him to do this - that's what's important.
Chr0maticAttack engineering is nothing but applied physics and physics is nothing but applied mathematics. To conclude, Mathematics is the Queen of science.
Engineers create the final products for which they need physics for which they need maths, so aren't they kind of god-like creatures that are able to design the whole process from the most basic aspect to its realization?
i am so tired of seeing this story about how the mother strived to cure their son/daughter and all that underline of bullshit. she is obviously taking credit from her son, which is completely fucked up. the kid broke out of his "autism" because his brain released dopamine from doing math problems which made him more able to be social. dopamine is actually an effecting way yo get an award in social interaction, not by the mother. i hope one day hell wake up and not be seen as a money robot.
The amazing thing about him is he can visualize the next dimension and the realm quantum physics and quantum energy which is the realm of Free and unlimited energy. Nikolai Tesla also saw equations as pictures.
Still confuses me why the parents always show up, or have something to say. Lol isn't it common sense that he was born a genius and naturally has the mental capability for the problems that are given. I would be embarrassed if I was his mother and would just stop giving my opinion on why/how he became an autistic genius. I mean, he's not 12 years anymore and I think he's capable of answering all the questions that the reporter wants. Lol the mother just looks like an insignificant person who shouldn't be a part of all the media attention he receives.
This looks definitely like fraud. The kid is more likely just a simply smart kid that because of some condition had too much attention from the parents and probably hired lots of instructors at home. Nothing wrong with that if he had communication problems but the parents are selling something here,with overexaggerations catchy sentimentalism and commercial hype and anyone else in this bysiness probably follows the money. Shame on academics if they did. The only way I will be convinced this was not just a show either for money or to get the kid some future is if he really makes some discovery. The whole thing from the beginning was that he was about to revolutionize the world. This is called scam tactics. Even if the kid becomes an average or decent physicist like a slew of people esp after the hype, this does not negate the mother's scam. I don't blame the kid because he was little.
A lot of attittude here and no brains. classic. so answer me, was the kid advertised as the person who is about to bring down einstein's theory or not. Because what brought me to this video was exactly this. So where is the physics revolution? I am still waiting. If you cannot see this as scam then you are low IQ retards who deserve no better than scam. And I have every right to make the comment since I feel cheated.
He seems very respectful of others. He has an innate awareness and a fine sense of humor, which demonstrates skill in adjusting to his surroundings. I doubt he would dismiss it as "bullshit", or anything for that matter, because he seems to enjoy thinking of things without any sort of visual crutch.
Probably not the best choice of equation in terms of explaining equations visually, he could've just picked something easier that more people could understand like (a+b)^2 or something else that has a very nice, intuitive visual representation, not electrodynamics/multivariable calc.
I love the story in book when they had contest to guess how many jelly beans in the jar .Jacob spent hours calculating the count and when they said how many there was he was blown away.Seems the teacher just guessed and when they did count he was just a few off total .He also spent time emptying cereal boxes out on table putting them in piles to figure out volume.Some of the stuff he did at three was mind blowing .Mother a saint
She wasn't. The birth mom told them kid was born in 2003 which made her 16 at that time. Also, she was abusing her. There is a documentary about it. This boy, Jacob, he told in the documentary that she manipulated him to pee on his sister's bed and things and he hates it till this day. "Saint", right. Ughh. He also refused to tell more, because didn't want to put her in danger, because she is still a mom...
His awareness and humor don't demonstrate ability to adjust to surroundings, Most people on the autism spectrum find it very hard to adjust to new environments. In this video you can see that he does use "visual crutches" by seeing equations as pictures. I used the word "bullshit" as an oversimplified exaggeration. I could explain further but I don't get enough words and no one wants to read it anyway.
I have been searching forever to find information on Jacob Barnett's physics CONCEPTS but it seems as if no one is interested. There a a lot of math behind a gasoline engine powered automobile but no math is required to explain the concept, A tank of flammable liquid is mounted on a 4 wheeled cart, the liquid and air are pumped into a contained space where sparks from a battery cause Explosions which move pistons which in turn rotate some of the wheels of the cart, the direction the front wheels face can be set by a person riding on the cart with a hand turned wheel, this controls the direction the cart moves in, a foot pedal feeds more or less fuel for more or less explosions to make the cart go faster or less fast, another foot pedal stops the wheels from moving when pushed down. No math at all yet I've explained the automobile as a CONCEPT. The basics of physics theories can be explained as concepts without math, math is required to work out the details but the basic concept requires no math. I want to know what Jacob Barnett's basic theoretical concepts are yet I find not one presentation where anyone seems even the slightest bit curious to know what his conceptual ideas actually are. The basic concept of general relativity is that gravity does not pull on objects and bend their trajectories like Newton thought, but that it "pulls" on space itself and warps space so that a strait trajectory follows bent space. Jocob says he has a different concept of general relativity, I'd sure like to hear about his concept regardless of all the mathematical details but not one person even seems interested! I don't care if your 3 years old or or 300 years old if your ideas are interesting I want to know what they are, my impression is most of the people around Jacob feel exceedingly and almost hysterically threatened that a young person might have to be treated with the same status as an older person, they seem to feel incredibly awkward about status issues which strikes me as terminally lame,. If a dog could speak I'd listen to what it had to say, if an advanced alien from another world tried to communicate with me I'd try to understand, I don't care about status issues, upsets in who's supposed to be who in the hierarchy are not at all interesting , content please, forget the sensationalism which after all is only based on prejudice In the past similar shock was exhibited if a woman showed scientific interest, or if it was a person of the wrong national origin or race, this focus on the issue of age to the exclusion of all else is counter productive, he's young, he has Asperger syndrome, he's a physicist with original ideas, this last thing is whats the most important.
i know why people r afraid / not interested in of math or physics. well i cant explain it in english (im german) would take to long of words research and stuff. well as a genius im so happy to have the internet! it educated me so damn much. my parents are both normal which often makes it hard for them to know how they should treat me. im 19 years old now and let me tell you: No genius wants parents i had lol.
i also share the same story as yours though im not a genius i think a little bit outside the box but im not dissapointed with my parents as i know they have come from a generation where getting a good job after studying was the important thing in life due to poverty
Actually uhm... he is gay. He atmitted being gay in his lecture at Ted Talks: /watch?v=Uq-FOOQ1TpE around the 2 minute mark. Cool kid for letting it of his chest at that age.
@@ZyneXx I understand from an intellectual perspective he would consider all girls IDIOTS. I have the same problem. Currently, I am in college with Physics as my 1st major, B.S., and Classical Greek and Latin as a double major, B.A., right now. I have not ever had a girlfriend or love life because I study theology, philosophy, mathematics, history, science, astronomy, sociology, & Hebrew, Greek, Latin, German, and memorize pi to over 1,200 decimals. I'd imagine Jabob is the same way. He doesn't have a love life because he's too smart.
It is very interesting and inspiring - but the video gets cut off just as he is about to explain how he taught his younger brother some mathematical principles... Please can we have a chance to see all of this, sir?
ugh finally someone else sees it! i had been arguing with people from all of this. what the mother doing is wrong and this boy deserves so much better then that.
He has a charming disconnect, in that he does not realise what he finds trivial others on a normal plane of intelligence cannot ever fathom. I'm sure his 'Maths Made Simple' will be a revelation but to people who have a good grounding in Advanced Maths. It would be lovely to see him in Big Bang Theory
Great minds come to this world, they are few that shine really bright, and they are here to let us pick behind the vail of incomprehensible and the unknown. Let us clear the way for them to create. No need to belittle them only because you are incapable to understand, you might be good at something else - better concentrate on yourself and your own self improvement - so you can leave something behind. Peace and Love to you all.
gamma in the mathematical term is just that.. a term,,, you can use is like X. so to explain any equation without definition makes no sense. gamma in engineering usually means a exponent of a stoichiometric mixture for example in gasoline combustion...not saying he isnt a genious, but it isnt backed here.
being difforent.that idea also works that our univers comes came an older one.the term black is to in accoret.holes noth black every thing going in nothing comes out.exept is theirs not enuff space being sucked in then every thing explodes out.energy time space the beging space heaven.mater only forms in stars or lots&presure but im much more compact univeres the law natrure would dramacticlay difforent.so atoms elements componds
Still “working” on his PhD at Perimeter. His only degree is a Bachelor’s in Independent Studies. Not even in Physics. His parents destroyed his potential for fame&funds
Kid seems nice but I really doubt he can be a teacher. Being a genius and being a teacher are too different things. He sees everything in math as easy and can't comprehend how difficult it is for others which will make communication between teacher and students difficult lol I have had plenty of those teachers.
No shit I can't follow what he's talking about. You must have trouble listening... He clearly said he wants to make math more simple for those who are "scared" of it... I'm pretty sure that means people that aren't interested in math and are no where near that level of math because it sea like another language. So he isn't looking to teach like minded people. He may not know how to dumb things down to the average person. Plus being smart doesn't make u a good teacher. It takes a ton of patience and understanding how others take in knowledge as well. I'm glad he wants to help others though.
I love it when religious people look at homosexuals the whole "God's creation" is thrown out the window but give God credit for intellectuals and "good people"
autism is not a disease it is a different way of thinking. people like you encourage what i can neurological apartheid and yes just like apartheid in south africa except it is based on neurology as opposed to race
I think he was on to something at the end there. Eric Weinstein made the same remark that schools aren't showing simplified diagrams of complex concepts (perhaps to justify a longer education)...
Exactly. If there is a god, this is his mistake, autism and similar syndromes are a genetic mistake. Luckily some other things fell into place to create this crazy dude.
[Then the lecturer asked a question of the audience: “Our moon is round. Why do you think the moons around Mars are elliptical, shaped like potatoes?” Nobody in the crowd answered, probably because no one had the slightest idea. I certainly didn’t. Then Jake’s hand shot up. “Excuse me, but could you please tell me the size of these moons?” This was more conversation than I’d seen from Jake in his entire life, but then again, I’d never tried to talk to him about Mars’s moons. The lecturer, visibly surprised, answered him. To the astonishment of everyone, including me, Jake responded, “Then the moons around Mars are small, so they have a small mass. The gravitational effects of the moons are not large enough to pull them into complete spheres.”] This is the conversation jacob had with a astronomy professor during his presentation when he was three years old. This is an extract from Jacob's mother Kristine's book. Oh Its hard to believe. It would be great if anybody in here knows that professors name. Does anybody in here knows if that professor has verified this story. Jacob having such eloquent conversation on astronomy with a professor at the age of three seems really hard to comprehend.
Ok, then you dont believe in reencarnation? Where on earth will a 3 y.o be so precise and sure about his answer? He’s brought it from past lives and that he is a master in quantun physics and talks about 4 dimension, and even say it takes 30 to 40 min to explain the 4 dimension to people, well I’ve got no doubt he’s life purpose is on a humanitarian level!
Here's a question: where did the first mammal come from? What it born? From what? A fish? A reptile? Or what? In order to BE a mammal, it would have to be born, wouldn't it? So, you have to basically say that an organism that lays eggs somehow had a live birth. Or youre going to have to contend that the first mammal was actually hatched. So....what do we know, actually? I think not too much, and that religion is a way of filling in this gap. But i could be wrong. (no peace💘)

The reporter: thinks: What the fuck did that kid just do..
The reporter: says: Brilliant.
Same thing I thought lol
hahahahaha
🤣🤣🤣
2:45 Interviewer goes "Brilliant" - Does he even understand what Jacob was talking about?
I was thinking the same thing :D
I was totally thinking that when he says it so blankly!
He could have at least asked in a nut shell what is the Laplace operator for? And what is the Green's function? And what are showing a capacity of electric charge right? I think the interviewer had a very tight segment time. Which stinks.
I look forward to seeing what he does as he grows...amazing really
says brilliant when he has no concept of what Jacob just said
ikr
Ofc, but shouldn't the kid know that the interviewer was not going to have a clue of mathematical demonstrations?
As he should, should he be just quiet or what?
I get what he's saying about the pictures. It really helps people learn by showing them what the subject matter is used for.

"People are scared of math"
Because most people don't get it and won't be able to understand it at your level.

I dont really know but i agree that we dont have an explanation and a lot of them might be false too.

Anybody heard of Feynman diagrams???? Nothing new here!!!!!Just good memory.......
That was just an example from aa ordinary physics textbook. Give me a break. That's all he does in all the videos...just textbook examples.

She wasn't. The birth mom told them kid was born in 2003 which made her 16 at that time. Also, she was abusing her. There is a documentary about it. This boy, Jacob, he told in the documentary that she manipulated him to pee on his sister's bed and things and he hates it till this day. "Saint", right. Ughh. He also refused to tell more, because didn't want to put her in danger, because she is still a mom...
His awareness and humor don't demonstrate ability to adjust to surroundings, Most people on the autism spectrum find it very hard to adjust to new environments. In this video you can see that he does use "visual crutches" by seeing equations as pictures. I used the word "bullshit" as an oversimplified exaggeration. I could explain further but I don't get enough words and no one wants to read it anyway.
from 6:19 to 6:42 ...... I don't know if the reporter was paying attention or not, but he said something totally irrelevant at the end
So he is the real life Good Will Hunting
I have been searching forever to find information on Jacob Barnett's physics CONCEPTS but it seems as if no one is interested. There a a lot of math behind a gasoline engine powered automobile but no math is required to explain the concept, A tank of flammable liquid is mounted on a 4 wheeled cart, the liquid and air are pumped into a contained space where sparks from a battery cause Explosions which move pistons which in turn rotate some of the wheels of the cart, the direction the front wheels face can be set by a person riding on the cart with a hand turned wheel, this controls the direction the cart moves in, a foot pedal feeds more or less fuel for more or less explosions to make the cart go faster or less fast, another foot pedal stops the wheels from moving when pushed down.
No math at all yet I've explained the automobile as a CONCEPT. The basics of physics theories can be explained as concepts without math, math is required to work out the details but the basic concept requires no math. I want to know what Jacob Barnett's basic theoretical concepts are yet I find not one presentation where anyone seems even the slightest bit curious to know what his conceptual ideas actually are.
The basic concept of general relativity is that gravity does not pull on objects and bend their trajectories like Newton thought, but that it "pulls" on space itself and warps space so that a strait trajectory follows bent space. Jocob says he has a different concept of general relativity, I'd sure like to hear about his concept regardless of all the mathematical details but not one person even seems interested!
I don't care if your 3 years old or or 300 years old if your ideas are interesting I want to know what they are, my impression is most of the people around Jacob feel exceedingly and almost hysterically threatened that a young person might have to be treated with the same status as an older person, they seem to feel incredibly awkward about status issues which strikes me as terminally lame,. If a dog could speak I'd listen to what it had to say, if an advanced alien from another world tried to communicate with me I'd try to understand, I don't care about status issues, upsets in who's supposed to be who in the hierarchy are not at all interesting , content please, forget the sensationalism which after all is only based on prejudice
In the past similar shock was exhibited if a woman showed scientific interest, or if it was a person of the wrong national origin or race, this focus on the issue of age to the exclusion of all else is counter productive, he's young, he has Asperger syndrome, he's a physicist with original ideas, this last thing is whats the most important.
He is amazing!
i know why people r afraid / not interested in of math or physics. well i cant explain it in english (im german) would take to long of words research and stuff.
well as a genius im so happy to have the internet! it educated me so damn much. my parents are both normal which often makes it hard for them to know how they should treat me. im 19 years old now and let me tell you: No genius wants parents i had lol.
i also share the same story as yours though im not a genius i think a little bit outside the box but im not dissapointed with my parents as i know they have come from a generation where getting a good job after studying was the important thing in life due to poverty
Update: he is still a genius and is trying to disprove the Big Bang theory, thank you.
Lucky he's smart or else he might end up abandoned having to fend for himself.
Wow...his voice deeper...he's a good young boy,I wonder if he's looking for a gf..lol!!!
Actually uhm... he is gay. He atmitted being gay in his lecture at Ted Talks: /watch?v=Uq-FOOQ1TpE around the 2 minute mark. Cool kid for letting it of his chest at that age.
ZyneXx He said he's kidding not that he's gay.
Tarun Prince seriously? Wow that would be a very awkward misunderstanding haha. I could have sworn he said he's gay. I don't care either way.
@@ZyneXx I understand from an intellectual perspective he would consider all girls IDIOTS. I have the same problem. Currently, I am in college with Physics as my 1st major, B.S., and Classical Greek and Latin as a double major, B.A., right now. I have not ever had a girlfriend or love life because I study theology, philosophy, mathematics, history, science, astronomy, sociology, & Hebrew, Greek, Latin, German, and memorize pi to over 1,200 decimals. I'd imagine Jabob is the same way. He doesn't have a love life because he's too smart.

"eatting a human heart during war-fare is illegal"
lol wtf
It is very interesting and inspiring - but the video gets cut off just as he is about to explain how he taught his younger brother some mathematical principles...
Please can we have a chance to see all of this, sir?
ugh finally someone else sees it! i had been arguing with people from all of this. what the mother doing is wrong and this boy deserves so much better then that.
He's remarkably humble for as brilliant as he is.
Yeah. Sure
He has a charming disconnect, in that he does not realise what he finds trivial others on a normal plane of intelligence cannot ever fathom. I'm sure his 'Maths Made Simple' will be a revelation but to people who have a good grounding in Advanced Maths. It would be lovely to see him in Big Bang Theory
2:50 made me laugh so hard cuz the guy is like wtf did he just say but he says "brilliant" hahahhaha
Great minds come to this world, they are few that shine really bright, and they are here to let us pick behind the vail of incomprehensible and the unknown. Let us clear the way for them to create. No need to belittle them only because you are incapable to understand, you might be good at something else - better concentrate on yourself and your own self improvement - so you can leave something behind. Peace and Love to you all.
gamma in the mathematical term is just that.. a term,,, you can use is like X. so to explain any equation without definition makes no sense. gamma in engineering usually means a exponent of a stoichiometric mixture for example in gasoline combustion...not saying he isnt a genious, but it isnt backed here.
This kid is really smart, but a huge douchebag
Why saying that ?
The real Sheldon Cooper !
being difforent.that idea also works that our univers comes came an older one.the term black is to in accoret.holes noth black every thing going in nothing comes out.exept is theirs not enuff space being sucked in then every thing explodes out.energy time space the beging space heaven.mater only forms in stars or lots&presure but im much more compact univeres the law natrure would dramacticlay difforent.so atoms elements componds
2:46 " Brilliant" aka "I have no idea what he just demonstrated"
2019? Where is jacob? Please new videos?
Still “working” on his PhD at Perimeter. His only degree is a Bachelor’s in Independent Studies. Not even in Physics. His parents destroyed his potential for fame&funds
one day this kid will grow up... and have exactly the perfect seat and annoy the hell out of his room mate and blonde friend
His mom is iritating to hear at.
Why is she irritating? She sounds extremely support full.
you are irritating to read at
30stmred 92 Because it isn't about his intelligence - it's just about how hard it was to raise him, and bla bla bla
His mum should know that this is gods work and nothing to do with her, the kid is just out of the ordinary
Kid seems nice but I really doubt he can be a teacher. Being a genius and being a teacher are too different things. He sees everything in math as easy and can't comprehend how difficult it is for others which will make communication between teacher and students difficult lol I have had plenty of those teachers.
That's cause ,you can't follow it, to understand that.
No shit I can't follow what he's talking about. You must have trouble listening... He clearly said he wants to make math more simple for those who are "scared" of it... I'm pretty sure that means people that aren't interested in math and are no where near that level of math because it sea like another language. So he isn't looking to teach like minded people. He may not know how to dumb things down to the average person. Plus being smart doesn't make u a good teacher. It takes a ton of patience and understanding how others take in knowledge as well. I'm glad he wants to help others though.
omy valentine that's probably because of his autism. communicating and empathy are major issues
I love it when religious people look at homosexuals the whole "God's creation" is thrown out the window but give God credit for intellectuals and "good people"
What about the other two boys? It really gives me a headache when I see how the "prodigy" was exploited.
Real genius
Amazing young man and what a great mother
she abused all of her family actually
autism is not a disease it is a different way of thinking. people like you encourage what i can neurological apartheid and yes just like apartheid in south africa except it is based on neurology as opposed to race
I think he was on to something at the end there. Eric Weinstein made the same remark that schools aren't showing simplified diagrams of complex concepts (perhaps to justify a longer education)...
I bet after 12 beers, he's still smarter than me.
The appropriate response to whether it is nature versus nurture is: I don't know.
Exactly. If there is a god, this is his mistake, autism and similar syndromes are a genetic mistake. Luckily some other things fell into place to create this crazy dude.
[Then the lecturer asked a question of the audience: “Our moon is round. Why do you think the moons around Mars are elliptical, shaped like potatoes?”
Nobody in the crowd answered, probably because no one had the slightest idea. I certainly didn’t. Then Jake’s hand shot up. “Excuse me, but could you please tell me the size of these moons?” This was more conversation than I’d seen from Jake in his entire life, but then again, I’d never tried to talk to him about Mars’s moons. The lecturer, visibly surprised, answered him. To the astonishment of everyone, including me, Jake responded, “Then the moons around Mars are small, so they have a small mass. The gravitational effects of the moons are not large enough to pull them into complete spheres.”]
This is the conversation jacob had with a astronomy professor during his presentation when he was three years old. This is an extract from Jacob's mother Kristine's book. Oh Its hard to believe. It would be great if anybody in here knows that professors name. Does anybody in here knows if that professor has verified this story. Jacob having such eloquent conversation on astronomy with a professor at the age of three seems really hard to comprehend.
I don’t buy it either. She also claimed he’d been diagnosed with moderate to severe autism. At age 2. Baloney. But it sure sold books!!
Kristine is a crook and robbed him blind
He needs to reproduce with genius girl, so the new era of intelligent humans is more likely to happen..
Ok, then you dont believe in reencarnation? Where on earth will a 3 y.o be so precise and sure about his answer? He’s brought it from past lives and that he is a master in quantun physics and talks about 4 dimension, and even say it takes 30 to 40 min to explain the 4 dimension to people, well I’ve got no doubt he’s life purpose is on a humanitarian level!
A r i g h t - handed genius? That IS amazing! Seriously, I wonder what Jake's spirituality is.

Here's a question: where did the first mammal come from? What it born? From what? A fish? A reptile? Or what? In order to BE a mammal, it would have to be born, wouldn't it? So, you have to basically say that an organism that lays eggs somehow had a live birth. Or youre going to have to contend that the first mammal was actually hatched. So....what do we know, actually? I think not too much, and that religion is a way of filling in this gap.
But i could be wrong.
(no peace💘)
