Can you think of 100 different uses for a sock? How would you cope with glasses that turn everything upside down? What's your emotional intelligence? Can you create a work of art in ten minutes?

Horizon takes seven people who are some of the highest flyers in their field - a musical prodigy, a quantum physicist, an artist, a dramatist, an RAF fighter pilot, a chess grandmaster and a Wall Street trader. Each is put through a series of tests to discover who is the most intelligent?

The principle way that we measure intelligence, the IQ test, remains popular and convenient. Yet most psychologists agree that it only tells half the story... at most. Where they disagree is how to measure intelligence, for the simple reason that the experts still don't know exactly what it is

yes my intelligence is growing, I can now watch the video, memorize it, and then store it 40 seconds later to replay inside my mind when it correctly matches the audio..............somehow I can no longer smell the fart I just cut :(

these videoes are making me more intelligent.. I'm starting to see who the persons really talking are, by watching and somehow feeling it O.o d:

[ilovezcheeze]

can we call it an intelligence that some people can walk better than others? if not, can we call anything in our brain an intelligence? since your way of walking is something that your brain has to figure out how to do proberly, just as it has to figure out how to do just about everything else.

I can't watch this, only listen. The out-of-sync-ness is screwing with my brain cell.
