According to the American Psychological Association the current "gold standard" in professional intelligence testing is the Wechsler.I.Q test.The highest I.Q score you can get on the Verbal, Performance, and Full Scale is a 160. Theoretically, only one out of every one million people have an I.Q that high. The person who created the test (Dr. Wechsler) said that a standardized I.Q test cannot differentiate between people who score a130(top 2 %) and any score higher. I.Q tests are bullshit.

@82rondo

In the Wechsler scale an IQ of 160 equals 1 in about 30 000. In the Stanford-Binet scale its about 1 in 11 000.

It's a bit silly to give a person a definite score on once intelligence, but that don't make the whole concept of measuring IQ bullshit. You have to remember IQ is only one facet in the spectrum of intelligence.

I wonder if all these details about city elevations were rolling around in his head while trying to answer the question in the hot seat or if he has simply become an armchair expert after the question was asked, looking for money like a lawyer chasing an ambulance

@Xwowplaya

Well obviously he researched all the fact in the matter after the show.

@Ben4004

Nothing special, just scored at the highest level on IQ-tests. Get over it.

@Korpliw

Or its because you never will be as smart as the dumbass in this video. :)

[MaryJamesMurdoch]

This person is a weirdo, a pervert, a loser, and a poser...with the worst worst hair implants I've ever seen.

[944jk]

he does realelize that iq only shows theoretical maximun mental capacit you can still be dumb with a high iq

[16nowhereman]

I'm still waiting to hear from his intelligence????

[Dimajo]

@OriginalMindTrick Nothing special just had a false IQ and boasted about it to the max, because of the fact that it is fake. Check out the great video "smartest person in the world" here on youtube and check the links, people like Rick Rosner and Chris langan are people who practiced at the IQ test or had a false IQ score and then milked it. And it is obvious from this that he is a moron. he wanted to relax in high school? i am not Genius AT ALL still got A in all but one subject without effort.

@OriginalMindTrick He never scored "highest" on any legit IQ test. He just claims to have.

@gusfgwin u have to take into the account the bottom of these "highest parts", not their tops.

[gusfgwin]

The highest parts in Bogota are around 4,000 meters..so technically Bogota is the highest.

I disagree. He did succeed. While he did not accept any formal prize he did solve the Poincare conjecture problem; a success and mark of intelligence in it's own. You need proofs to draw conclusions. You need evidence. What better evidence of a person's intellect than that of them solving mathematical mysteries or expanding their field of study?

Again, it's not about the medal. It's about what the medal represents.

[masterslaveish]

@reinadegrillos Success is not the true sign of intelligence, Grigori Pelerman is a russian matematician who refused the fields medal and 1 million dollar prize from the clay institute for having solving the poincaré conjoncture problem (which had to wait 100 years to be solved) that doesn't make of him and unsuccessful prson, neither a dumb! the materialistic way of seeing things is THE dumbs mark..for keen people like Rosner, Pelerman, Fisher.. life is an experiment to be lived
