5 Year Old Mastering a Simon Memory Game

[MrFlashanimator]

wow!

[egxsniper]

she is good and i suck at that game i cant get to round 10

[crazycod4killer]

the sound REALLY helps

[MrQmason]

Good job , Abigail. Stay focused on whatever you want in life and you will succeed in that, too. :)

[theepicawesome100]

haha @ 1:39 "Respect"

[jeminni19]

damn boy do we got some haters on here!! she is 5 leave her alone! she is really good at this game, better than i could ever do. i can hardly remember where i park my car half the time

[zizwop]

Well, she did better than I could do-I was happy to be able to not crap my pants at 5.

[Jordo713]

Yeah y'all need to get off the gas! This girl just did what most adults can't do! At 5 years old being able to do this means that most likely she will be able to do anything she puts her mind too.

[carramelmonkey]

Oh come on. Have you ever tried that thing!? The highest I ever got to was 15, and I'm 18! Stop hating on the kid... she has talent!

[ADubbaDizzo]

Wow, you guys are really quick to put someone down. "Oh that's not that hard, I can do it better", Get over yourselves, how dare you tell a child they're not good at something.

[royalsteven]

Kids can do anything adults can't. I am starting to think they are smarter than us :D

[PeaceOfSugar]

that's no genius! i could remember to endless by that voice, and i have tryen so i know!! but really, good from a five yrold.

[irockdude64]

@PeaceOfSugar lol "tryen" is not a word

[arrowhunter01]

she has great memory skills, yes.  but really she has learned the pattern of the machine. She is not having to remember a different sequence, the sequence gets longer but stays the same until a small variation at the end. I applaud her for recognizing this. Impressive.

[fudginny17]

im 12 and i can anly do the first five then i loose! XD

[AgentCraig358]

I'm SO jealous of her skills. I'm not even that good!!!

[jypsieanna]

Wow thats all i can say she is amazing so cool

[cookiiemonster007]

u know what, people make nasty comments should shut the crap up. a mother pride and good on you

[b4n4n4spl1t2]

Ah- mazing!

[Rachman1337]

This new version sucks. The notes are in a minor chord. And your daughter is not a genius, in fact she's probably autistic.

[davidthefrogman]

@Rachman1337 Why do you have to be such an asshole? Does it make you feel good?

[flyboymd82]

@davidthefrogman People like "rachman" are just jealous b/c thier mothers had no pride in them when they were kids & they were probably even ashamed of them!

[SuperCoolguyjoe]

@Rachman1337 why do you have to be such an asshole about it?

[Aliendear]

The first game brought here by Aliens.

[kranker114]

epic fail at the end lol :D

[miel1012]

holy she is way better than me

[lokasage1]

yea it does, in working memory at least

[Tcc80s]

this doesn't mean she's a genius

[tapakip]

Good for her age. I followed along with the video and was right there with her until the end, wonder how far I could have gone.

[Escorpio123SS]

That was impressive, she has a bigged simon than mine.

[shawtygotteeth]

COOL

[adamgh0]

It's interesting that this newer version of the original simon has flat tones in it. The original was A (low A (high) G and D. This version is also different in that the lights are always on unlike the original where the lights only lit up if touched or playing a sequence. I don't think I could play this version as well as the original.

[skatergurl12100]

wow smart girl

autistic

did i spell that right

[escorpio123]

Coming up on October, my "simon tips" video that will help you perform higher scores at "Simon Trickster"

[munnyman444]

Autistic

[3wrongnotes]

its good that shes moved on to other things, make sure you show her things like music and arts etc, not just praise her for playing a game

this game has nothing to do with mathematical or even intellectual ability, (intelligence's literal definition), there are people who would be able to acheive 43, but they have spent time specifically training for it or are unfortunate enough to be born with a medical condition that would naturally cause problems*

if you stress short term, bye bye long term

[backtoiron]

do you have any studies to show that stressing short term memory decreases long term memory?

[3wrongnotes]

yeh, the ending of my comment was abit ignorant but this is youtube and that was late

i suppose i meant long term potential...

the childs is being obsessed over playing this game, shown in the video description and title, im a little worried about the way things are phrased about their daughter

if you focus on this childs long term only, when the child grows their long term memory /attention span is likely to be weaker

stress can impair short term memory especial for children but

[3wrongnotes]

*ly

i have no evidence to prove putting stress on the short term will reduce either short term or long term, although stressing this game over a long period of time would decrease short term

it doesnt seem healthy regardless

[loutube9]

my best mark is 43!

[xxxfantomasxxx]

give us the evidence !

[banggidybangbang]

woooww!!!! omg verrryyy impressive! :)) good job bby gurl :)

[S0cr4zy]

i'm very impress !!!!

wow !!!

[patric437]

Very impressive, just keep working on that, and you you will gain every bit of knowledge you learn in school everyday. I to have a fantastic memory.

[123foxysnake4]

omg

[solidsnake1120]

mathematics is all patterns

i love math :)

[ghettopimpxl]

what does this game have to do with math?

[ChibiDeath]

She'll exceed at mathematics.

[edonldutch]

nice, maybe she will become a pianoist:D

[Bob8199]

pretty good for 5 years old

[This19]

haha very impressive! although this game does not prove anyone is a genius....clearly she displays above average short term memory

[darthdragonking]

very impressive for a lilttle girl the wonders of a child

[ihatesaturn08]

wow shes got past the first level!!!!! i kant even do that and im 16!!!!!!!!! :) LOL

[ravensharpless]

yo missin teh point mah shes all like 11 years yunger then u

[ravensharpless]

oh u sed CAN'T no offense my mistake.

[escorpio123]

check my simon video, nice for 5 year old girl though!!! check my video to see how the end of simon looks like!!!

[retrogirl75]

holy crap!that's amazing!!

[Chickostix89]

i was playing with barbies and playdoh at age 5, not simon...she's good.

[sill313]

wow people can make really rude comments. She's a genius for her age, gosh! I could never remember that much and I'm a lot older than her. Why is everyone arguing about a video? That's just pathetic.

[wally00222]

it sounds like some music!

[twitch09]

jeez, well she just pwned me

[krnjason]

man i lost to simon on like the first round... this vid makes me dispressed.. hahaa

[noodledoodle96]

THis girl must LOVE simon.

I don

t blame her

its addicting...

[jklmnoponmlkj]

I've seen kids doing Rubik's cubes and doing it fast at that. And what is she doing playing Simon. Teach her something useful not Simon.

[Pchack09]

This is something useful. It helps with memory.

[jklmnoponmlkj]

thats not useful its a toy for god's sake teach her math or science or something like that

[TavidFTW]

Your fucking stupid.

[jklmnoponmlkj]

I'm not stupid. It's just your too much of a fucking idiot to realize that genius doesn't come from playing a memory game. My cousin is 4 and he can get a higher score than this girl and he isnt a genius.

[Linkzcap]

That's impressive if your cousin is 4 and can actually do that. That's even amazing. Especially that you brought that up late in the argument when this note would be, in truth, an important article that would win your side of this battle. I'm surprised that your cousin can REALLY do that. And I'm surprised you didn't know that it actually DOES help your memroy. And where did this 'genius' thing come from? He never said anything about becoming smarter in IQ levels. You don't HAVE to be right.

[jklmnoponmlkj]

Firstly, when you said "And where did this 'genius' thing come from?". It comes from the title.

Secondly, when you said "He never said anything about becoming smarter in IQ levels". I was suggesting an alternative.

Thirdly, I started to participate in this argument because Simon helps your memory become better, not become a genius.

You can find if someone is a genius and using more than 9% of the brain with an IQ test.

[wally00222]

this does help memory

[c0mbineelite]

You're retarded. She's FIVE. I don't think he's even talking about IQ, he means prodigy. Now stop making fights and shut up.

[jklmnoponmlkj]

Shut your fucking hole and listen to some reason they are referring to her as a genius in the title. Being a genius requires someone to use more brainpower than an average human or little girl in this case.But to do so you must have a high IQ. Get it retard. And by the way I posted that comment last month.

[c0mbineelite]

People like you need to get their anger under control. And I just said that he was using it in the context of prodigy. I know he said genius. I think you just need to calm down and stop taking PCP.

[jklmnoponmlkj]

Im not angry. Im just trying to prove my point.

[stormc1nd3r]

Jklmnoponmlkj, you`re clearly jealous that a five year old possesses a memory far superior to your own. And "Genius" Is a loose term used to describe anyone with outstanding ability in one or more criteria. For example, a brilliant composer, a logic master, or someone with an amazing MEMEORY. And only a complete cad would harass a five year old. If you`re so great, may I see your Mensa International membership card?

[Sokar6186]

Im not "harassing" a five year old im "harassing" the person who posted the video for calling the girl a genius, which she is not. You were right about the brilliant composer and logic master but what do brilliant and logic have in common a bright person with a high IQ. Now that is what a genius is. This is an ordinary girl playing with an ordinary and fun toy getting to a part all my little cousins and friends cousins can pass. You are giving her too much credit.

[jklmnoponmlkj]

She isn't a genius. A genius is someone who can use 9% more brainpower than a normal person. She is just playing the easiest game in the world, Simon. Do you see her doing mathematical equations with logs in them. You probably don't even know what logs are. Did you check her I.Q. and actually see if she is a Genius? I think not. Idiot.

[goksnedeh6578]

its easy, you just remember the sound, movment, and colour and combine them to remember it easyer :P

[zixerqwert]

Being honest thats really easy. she has been playing alot and the sequence is always the same as before so really everytim your just remembering 3 more patterns e.g. it walways goes yellow yellow yellow red green blue.

the rest is easy. what people dont think is that really its always the same sequence except with one more colour or two, to press

[Niektendo]

WOW

[Helldin665]

Really good for beeing 5. and as for most lame comments here, do better, post a vid or just stfu. :)

[zanksterman]

big deal

[rawwqq]

Good job!

[Deathbreak911]

I used to love this game when I was her age. I'd play until I got bored, it never got me in those 5 minutes sessions I actually played. Lol

[sIkLe94]

NICE! Very clever girl!

[psych120]

just because she can do a game of simon doesnt make her a genius.

but hey your proud of your kid.

[TAMPORAPANTERA]

its not just the fact that she can play simon says really well you assfag. This is a demonstration of the abnormally advanced brain at work. She can also do other crazy shit that most people cant do as well, such as certain physics and adv. math.

[psych120]

i dont see where that is shown

all i see on this guys page are 3 videos of his daughter's simon game

so

wheres the math and physics?

[TAMPORAPANTERA]

do you really want to see some little girl do some math problems and ph y si c s you faggot?

[psych120]

i would love to.

oh and also your insults hurt me really bad.

so yeah take that into account

[TAMPORAPANTERA]

well then thats just weird.

And i dont recall using any insults.

You strangely remind me of this kid Sean.

he really just sucks.

[psych120]

youre right, assfag and faggot arent insults.

so yeah show me a 5 year old girl who can do physics and math

and i will show you a genius

but you show me a 5 year old girl who is good at simon

i will show you a little girl with an impressive trick

and i dont really give a fuck who i remind you of

[adp0803]

wow she is really good, congrats for having such a smart little girl :)

[Stella1love]

SCARY!!!!!

[o0Akai0o]

Very nice. Especially for a girl so young :x

[Lopas1]

That's great... i wouldn't be able to do that :P

And to get my age you can multiply hers by 3 :P

[ragebycow]

that is impressive, but I did just as good when I was 6, and could solve a Rubik's Cube when I was 7. :p

[Lopas1]

But you're a fucking genius right? And you understood the meaning of life when you was 8?

And you figured out how to stop the global warming when you wast 11.. but noone likes you so noone listened.

[Skater056]

it lasted sooo long, I just skipped the whole video and watched last one =D

UR GOOD!

[asaunders420]

some of you ppl are so ingnorant.. that was incredible that girl was only 5... i know 20 year olds that couldnt get even that close

[womo1975]

Floabab dugge ruter mankaka des treduta!

[gamerkathan]

very smart girl but very annoying that she goes so slow at it, i was like just go faster!!!!!!!!!

[dlpnin]

Look at the trend in this game...All it does it add to the sequence.

[lunytunez619]

yes we all know but its a little infant!

[BdubPro]

have you never heard of Simon?

[gigasflare]

She juz had a good memories ^_^ but she still have a much more to learnt

But if she fails to become GOOD/KIND HUMAN that means shes stupid

[shadowmorman]

I kind of skipped through but yeah... advanced.

[madex99]

Absolutely brilliant!!

[tyrcd]

haha, after a while, it turns into a musical device

[THdolceTH]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­W!!!!!!!!!!

PEOPLE, SHE IS GENIUS!!! :) relly!!

[Gt4smaa]

Lol Relax Zank she'z " FIVE " , in case you havent noticed ;)

[xxsarahxxtgem]

wow!!!!

[pichblk32]

for a 5 year old thats pretty amazing

[Nerris121]

jesus christ that's amazing for a 5 year old girl, regardless of what other people say.

[motasdirector]

ohh just look to the comments .. a bunch of dumb adult people competing with a 5 years old little girl ... she did really good congrats to the parents .. you have a beautiful and really smart kid.

[zanksterman]

LMAO i just counted her score it's 21, when I was 8 i used to average 36-40 easily, so no shes not a genius because I'm not even near genius

[sublime9787]

she's 5. not 8

[zanksterman]

lmao she couldnt even beat my average which is 29

[cheesy9]

A parent calling their child a "genius"... hmmm

[andreano2]

I'm better than her

[kirbyfan95]

then why don't you videotape you doing it?

[andreano2]

just kiddin I said that with the fake jealous smirk look on my face y'know right?

so I didn't realy mean it...seeya!

[Bekll]

She did really well for such a young age! I knew the next move and waited for her to press it and she always (until the end) did! Perhaps I should buy this nifty little game... will keep my memory sharp. ^-^

[smileymileyc]

she is really good i cant to that

[Joesterisk]

WOW

[ieatseals]

omg how can she remember all of the buttons to press

[Xolrules2]

uhhhhhh ok.

[kirbyfan95]

psh. i'm an extremely gifted 12 year old and i can't do that. (then again i have horrible memory...) so stop drinking that glass of hateorade, and give the girl some credit. shes better than you were when you were her age, so you make fun of her. the world sucks.

[sango1789]

at the end she stoped unperpose cause she got so tired of doing it

[ctistefan]

ZZzzzzzzzzzzz.Genius? how? Everyone wants to think their kids are sooooooooo special.

[sango1789]

because they know a lot more better than you i have a cousin whos 4 and can get up to 56 on this i have one but with 6 buttons

[kennyfdny]

I could do that....NOT!!!

[gellsfrost]

I was blown away, this girl is amazing, I suck so much at this game, lol

[wadever05]

Tt was easy actually, sorry to say, but i can did it when i was her age, which is easy for musically inclined people

[Dogg1980]

yeah, sure you could.

[dead2thewind]

i can did it, lol as well as "Tt" add insult to injury yeah "im sorry but you daughter is no genius im a moran and i find it easy"

[piistheword]

don't listen to the ones who leave hateful responses, they are just bored. shame on the haters for saying anything negative. you go girl!!

[CapnSlayaMan]

Wow that is not hard at all. If she can do that than im a genuis which im not!

[SlayerSteve777]

I used to play this too when i was young, my version became VERY fast though quite quickly, to the point where it was hard to see which square bleeped up - this version seemed kinda slow, but well done to the girl, she has a good memory.

[rickdiggler]

Lets see her play me on some Madden 07

[LtUnreal]

That was 23?

[Jagiellonia]

Easy:P

[r4g3firefox]

That was dumb...go die.

[compressedgas]

all 6 - 9 years olds are more capable of learning and have more synapses than adults. Therefore they are obviously smarter then adults, yet have not started to take in complex values or beliefs like adults.

[benedox]

wow! that's crazy :D maybe i'll get my sister this game ;)

[zerolifespan]

Get her ass on playstation. That is some proper gaming.

[stelantina]

SHE IS VERY SMART

[NonComedian]

Is she still little?

[eikonogen]

boring.

[tropicalpunch92]

o wow thats really good.

[m3gatl20n]

Is it me or was the most rewarding part when she failed! BWHAH

[SaVioRz203]

People are just retarded.. and see how smart she is.. and claim that thats their own daughter.

[CoUnTrYmUsIcFrEaK]

you are one of the five people that claim to be her parents... I still have to find out who is her parents!

[Plomid]

are you kidding this is way beyond that becuse how fast this is

[lompocus]

wow, pretty neat. one thing, the game isn't all that hard, and i dont think it would take a super genius to do that considering that she is slowly memorizing both a pattern with one additional step added each time and with both a visual and an audio. neat, though

[nenya]

Very good point. I wouldn't say she's a genius. But I think she's still smart.

[nikosoprano]

holy crap

[Pwn3r]

Pretty good.

[EmilyB33]

wow.

[bleaux42]

Incredible!
