The Real 'Rainman'
did anybody see the documentry on Channel 5 last night at 9pm about a guy called Kim Peek who was the inspiration behind the movie 'rainman' ????
It was amazing - he truly is a walking 'google'
he reads 8-10 books today and completly absorbes a single page in 8 seconds !!!!!!
he has seminars where people ask him any random question from obscure general knowledge - to sports - to history and he can answer it !!!!!
anybody else seen this at all last night ???????
I missed it but I wanted to watch it, wish he was on my pub quiz team
Yeah I saw it. The guy has a really amazing memory.
He seemed to know everything!
Felt sorry for him though cos his Dad is 80 and totally looked after him. He is gonna be fucked when his Dad dies cos they had done everything together for 54 years! Bit tragic.
yeah, its going to be bad. - hes going to have to go into a home cos theres no way he'll be able to fend for himself - hell, the poor bugger does'nt have the co-ordination to shave or put his own socks on even
