Human Calculator (Not Miss V)

030614

Even though we all think that Miss V is the Human Calculator, SHE'S NOT! It's actually a man named Scott Flansburg.  He goes around the world to show that calculators aren't everything, that it's really all about his brain.  He does everything that you can use on a calculator, even square roots and fractions!  He even beat a room of mathematicians at SDSU. It's actually so crazy how he is able to recite a list of numbers, it's amazing.  I don't know what he does everyday, or how he is able to calculate such things faster than a calculator, but obviously I'm a little behind on my math compared to him.  It's even said that maybe a total of 6 people IN THE WORLD, which consists of billions of people, have the talent Flansburg does.  You should watch this video and see this unique talent for yourself!

  2. I've heard about this guy too!! I remember watching a similar video about him in like 6th grade and I was so amazed and impressed. I wish I could do that.

  3. I think this is amazing. When the problem gets more complicated, he performs much faster. He is really a human calculator.
