Autistic child is also math genius

[SamuelHorler]

The teacher was called Mrs Coon?

[tymoe417]

Too bad everything is grey.

[comeonfhqwhgads1]

wait if he cant blink then how does he get moisture in his eyes?

[Ko252]

@comeonfhqwhgads1 Eye drop

[comeonfhqwhgads1]

I dont want to critisize that kid, but he seems like a ganster, you know, chewing gum and that facial expression, its like he wants to kill someone

[hartsonghandworks]

@comeonfhqwhgads1 Did you hear the part about the facial paralysis? I'm sure he'd love to be able to smile.

[Angrybear123]

Isn't this just a classic, textbook case of Asperger's syndrome?!? This report doesn't even mention it. Local news is so fail.

[lilsailorsmama]

@Angrybear123 Not necessarily a 'textbook case' of anything, on the Autism Spectrum degrees can vary, there are no two people alike. A line I've used time and time again is 'you've met an autistic child congrats you've met one child with autism

[lilsailorsmama]

@Angrybear123 There is no 'textbook case' of anything on the Autism Spectrum, the degrees of severity differ greatly. There are no two people alike on the spectrum.

[hartsonghandworks]

@Angrybear123 No, it's not classic at all. And all autistic kids are different.

[Dolphidood]

People who are autistic in my opinion know its best to just keep your mouth closed and just repeat something enough times in till they succeed.

[nicolll1]

i saw him blink at 55 seconds....

[adofri]

its rainman hallelueah!

[SpicyHam]

that's average math skill, not genius level.

[vaper192]

thear are two types of maths human maths and logical maths

human maths is illogical and has many floors and maths is not above logic any way

[FerretDude15]

"Autistic is one letter short from artistic" is always my saying, nobody has the right to say an autistic person can do nothing.

[UnverifiedUser]

FAAAAAAKKEEEEEEEEEEE

[derangedzone]

so they didn't show any of his genious tricks! how do i believe them then?

[devarkk]

"You can't argue with math, its concrete", I love him already!

[fractalgem]

@devarkk the irony is....math is actually abstract, rather than concrete.

I guess the distinction between "absolute" and "concrete" escaped the kid....not that I can blame him. English is a rather haphazard language, after all.

[amiginhodochavesmaco]

and then some guy in the back with a bible says:"THIS IS GODS DOING!!! HE BLESSED THIS CHILD WITH A CURSE AND GIFT!!!"

truth is id switch with that guy anyday.

[ItsMeKelso]

@LuvsToLaughGirl Right?!.oh i guess if we judge on how others appear than Professor Stephen W. Hawking is a (retard) because he is disabled. WAKE THE HELL UP PEOPLE!!! just because you have a disadvantage or lack social skills doesn't mean you cant be smart in other eras Its so sad how people judge others based on how they act,look.s,ok im done with my rant.. the cyber police informed me that i must stop yelling now.

[payitup92]

@ItsMeKelso ur fat right?

[ItsMeKelso]

@payitup92 How did u kno??? Did u see my vids??? yeah im  rather fat im 104 LBS .... aka 47.173606479973806 KG So im working on loosing more weight!

[payitup92]

@ItsMeKelso hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­haha 

[glukokortikoid]

1:02 epic smile "he is an amputee.."

[MrsTaylor617]

This is truly amazing it's great that they give him a chance

[Kep0v]

math is not concrete.. its only a human language interpreted to explain a logic

[hibrabla]

@Kep0v If used correctly it's irrefutable though. In that way it's concrete...

[hibrabla]

@Kep0v If used correctly it's irrefutable though. In that way it's concrete... right?

[roxinorita83]

he cant blink? isnt that dangerous for your eyes?? you cant go around with dry eyes!!! he's gonna get blind on the long term i think

[mrnosy1]

Its amazing how a rainbow shitting cat flying through space brought me here in the long run (nyan cat)

[WolfaRiio]

@JamesParkersVids I couldn't agree more, you are so right sir.

[o0weezy0o]

@JamesParkersVids i didn't mean stop hatin the retard but haters are retards them selfs

[o0weezy0o]

stop hating retards

[TheLiberalSoup]

hahah what's funny, is if the reporters knew shit about math they would know that having immeasurable absolute value can be bad. For example, the absolute value of -100 is 100. So jake could be immeasurably bad and still have an immeasurably good absolute value.

[fukstreet]

The ability to talk via a computer make you a genius? We are all geniuses.

[jmg999]

Jake is awesome!

[TheJWKK]

exposed to sex and violence!

[Fieryxjoe]

they are smart because their brain shuts down some (usually social skill involving) parts of the brain and then other parts of the brain will use the empty space, so almost all autistic children will have some form of a gift in some subject but most of them dont find it

[0TylerDurden0]

he has a voice. it sounds like microsoft sam.

[crustylion123]

why are autistic kids so damn smart, maybe in the future scientists will find out how to extract the benefits of autism and get rid of the cons, and make some kind of injection that will make us smarter, minus the social alkwardness

[grymfogel1]

SPAM 3!!!

333

arcsarcsarcs

[WolfaRiio]

Its sad how some people want to compare themselves to these special kids by saying they are smarter... Please, these kind of special children didn't choose the be born this way. A little bit more respect even if you think this is real or fake.

[memphis148]

I'm not buying it. They never gave any examples of his math skill.

[ftlptba]

he is probably smarter than me since i didnt put base in my mathsearly,but i will take care more chicks and maybe do something more important in the world than this young lad ,but i have been really confused,

[ayellerbird]

@ftlptba that is such a nice way to look at things. (sarcasm)

[valval223]

aww. hes probably smarter than me.

[assman1060]

Good for you Son....

[mylovesofmylife]

My Sons Father is gifted.And is exceptional at Maths. My Son acts different. Shows Autistic Characterisitcs. A friend of ours thinks he did started and finished the word maze, at the Diner with the fun sheets the Diner provides.Our school age Daughter who reads and writes said she did not do the world maze. But our Son is not school age yet, and does not know how to read and write. Hes alright at drawing, he traced a cartoon through one side of the paper onto the other side of the papoer

[Nirmine3]

you have normal geniuses and retard geniuses

well you know the rest

[tubeman2010]

I thought that "facilitated communication" was shown to be reflecting the thoughts of the facilitator and not the patient, i.e. useless.

[redSHIFT69]

earth to rain man. math is very concrete at lower levels...diff eq, calculus, linear equations....let alone adding fractions at 5th grade. well see if you are a math genius later in life....until then..plz rename title

[enthusiastmathkid]

@redSHIFT69 , I agree. As a 9 year old, I learnt calculus & linear algebra in a space of 3 months. Check out my channel web-page, which I have 3 short videos for solving polynomial differentiation & indefinite integration including solving linear simultaneous equations.

[enthusiastmathkid]

[fractalgem]

@enthusiastmathkid man, I wish someone had tried to teach me formalized calculus at that age, rather than shoving story and "ratio" problems down my throat (and wasting time trying to get me to learn which month the (historical) boston tea party occured during...)

Oh well. these days I'm learning just about everything I'll ever need to know about linear algebra from the first 40 pages of "the theory of groups and quantum mechanics"...at about 3-5 pages a day :S

[illuminatijews]

Sounds like bullshit to me.

[OnAPlanePedestrian]

future stephen hawking

[nomchews]

I'm not having a go at him in anyway shape or form,

BUT there are children much younger that can do ALOT harder and more advanced University (nearing field breaking) mathematics, where as he's doing senior advanced high school. Just sayin' the title is misleading, nonetheless these prodigies are not disabled and therefore is his own right he's a Genius.

[scar504]

his "absolute value is immeasurable" lmfao hahahahaha

[K4inan]

A guy in my class is exactly like this, he sucks at communicating verbally, but in written text, he's a master of languages. He's also a mathematical genius.

[ChristianEvolution]

the next Steven Hawkings

[dsliteman66]

she doesn't even know what she is saying about maths ha ha

[abc123shout]

Maybe if we keep realzing that autistic people are naturally gifted in math they won't have to sit in their houses all day counting leaves on trees.

[Nikon05]

poor dude. hope hes happy

[thetuaman]

i can see the numbers in my ass

hhhahaha 1:39

[subscriberposer]

oh what numbers are there 10 because thats your iq

[Olucatei]

Ouija Board?

[dismember1349]

lol math puns in video description

[Manoo62]

A maths genius but still cant spell it.

[unholy414]

miss coons?! lol

[killgates1]

An autistic child in my school thinks my name is 80-zero. Is he visualizing me as a number lol?

[KoalaBearWarrior]

i wish i had a teacher like that damn.! lol.

[roxasnriku1]

I like the Username o.0

[dontdodrugs666]

autistic kids are geniuses, the rest of the world retarded

[subscriberposer]

@dontdodrugs666 you know that means your dumb my brother who gets highest honors i and teachers are dumb

[terrapatra]

hay everybody i just wanted to tell you that i am autistic and i always get a+ in math class and i am shit in all my other classes its not that i like math i dont like math its just really easy for me

[subscriberposer]

@terrapatra wow your a good typer if you suck in the other classes

[MrPerfectHour]

no shit he passes DID U SEE THE CHICK THAT IS NEXT TO HIM WOW MAMA!!!

[yuddda]

he's not a genious he's a retard and so is your mum.

[LuvsToLaughGirl]

@yuddda what the heck is your problem? You're such a jerk! He's not a retard, and he IS a genius. So sad, how your parents brought you up.

[yuddda]

ill give him a game of basketball and dunk all over him IN YOUR FACE! RETARD! BOOM!

[ninjakid6]

@yuddda Basketball yes, but he's a "Retard." and ten billion times more intelligent than you, then again I imagine that's no feat either.

[halofhellproductions]

THANK YOU I hate it when people make fun of peoples disorders thanks for standing up for jake

[crustylion123]

@LuvsToLaughGirl hes retard lol execute the retard!!

[payitup92]

@LuvsToLaughGirl fuck you

[halofhellproductions]

@yuddda your a dick

[paulgeoffreybrown1]

"facilitated communication"

Ask the kid a question with his assistant out of the room. Ask him to give the answer when she comes back in.

[Samuraionthewall]

@paulgeoffreybrown1 YES SIR. I couldn't have said it better.

[headchew]

Who edited this?

00:57 "Jake can neither blink... *jake blinks*..."

[TheMarksmenCat]

well he didnt close his eyes completely

[Unrated48]

@headchew

He just moved his eyes lol he didn't blink totally...

[halofhellproductions]

Actuly he just sort of went half way down his eye if you look closely

[gnamp]

@halofhellproductions a partial 'blink', if you will.

[ConnorViper]

@headchew Just because he blinked doesn't mean he can control it

[headchew]

@ConnorViper the point is the footage showed him blinking, despite the narrator having only just said that he can't blink. Either completely idiotic or very cheeky editing.

[manurok1901]

@headchew He took it as a challenge...

[jjbulls4523]

@headchew His eyes werent closed

[wkryan]

@headchew A partial blink isn't a "blink" and YES if you know anything about the eye it DOES matter

[gnamp]

@wkryan A partial 'what'?

[gvsfgdf]

math genius my ass...... Euler, Heisenberg , and Schwinger were geniuses not solving quadratics in grade 5.....

[Arycke]

He is a genius with respect to others around him and generally speaking compared to kids his age. But, compared to Euler, Gauss, Wiles, Tao, and many others, not really.

[gvsfgdf]

Nicely said...

[shadowblack10]

jakes teacher is hot and his mom

[gvsfgdf]

gigidigigidi gig :D

[longliveslf]

"he is an amputee lol" -the mom

[bakhtn]

how is that funny

[longliveslf]

quoting the mother

[headchew]

hmmm...?

[LuvsToLaughGirl]

@longliveslf How's that funny?

[longliveslf]

it's fucking funny because his mother laughs after stating that he is an amputee. i live for that shit.

[ninjakid6]

@longliveslf How about I cut off your legs? Don't think I wouldn't do it, I'm Alex Delarge from A clockwork orange crazy.

[longliveslf]

@ninjakid6 what

[longliveslf]

ps quit trollin

[umahuma4]

To bad its all a waste. Unfortunatly society in general wont accept him. Bassicly its a waste of talent. Im not trying to sound harsh or mean, hes a genius, but its a wast of talent because hes autistic.

[rlschievel]

I disagree. One of the greatest disabled scientists, Stephen Hawking, is greatly accepted. So I must ask you why society would not accept Jake?

And if you are right about how society "won't accept him" because of his disability, then the society we live in is going to hell in a hand basket.

[umahuma4]

Yes, our society is culturly, educationaly, and ethicly bankrupt, so our society and future society is going to hell in a hand basket. Jake is autistc though, i believe Stephen Hawking has a musclular neurological diesese of some sort, i may be wrong though.

[llhellixll]

Stephen Hawking is not disabled in the way that Jake is disabled. Autism and muscular dystrophy are completely different.

[FretArchitect]

....or ALS dumbass.

[Jomillex]

HOLY SHIT HES A DEMON HE ROLLS HIS EYES TO THE BACK OFF HIS HEAD HE IS AMAZING

*rereads title*

oh no he sucks at math he is fucking retarded

[buddyandpal1]

Hey all you meanies..... He IS a genius. as his mom says dont under estimate HIM!!!!!!!!!=[ meanies

[dabuddhist]

he's not a genius I did all of that in year 5 along with 4 other students

[Boboua]

He's considered a genius because he can't do other normal things like we can. People think he cannot do anything, talk, learn but he can that's why he's being called a genius!

It's not because you can or can't do it at whatever age.

[umahuma4]

Hes not a genious, hes a normal child developmentaly, but hes only perceieved as a genious because he cant do normal things like we can like dress himself or blink or talk

[DicedCubes]

I don't see how he's a math genius.

[ojsdaddy]

Why don't you cry about it? He's excelling despite his excessive limitations which you can't/refuse to understand from your normal person perspective.

[jacobins3000]

I've heard a lot of doctors and psychologists argue that 'facilitated communication' for autistics is a complete fraud, that its actually the facilitator who is doing all the talking.

[GrandHighGamer]

After seeing that video I have to agree. They're making an ouija board out of a child.

[grewupascrewup13]

amazing

[xtremetoastymadness]

wow, i'm 20 and still have some trouble graphing parabolas... this kid is simply awesome
