This is perhaps one of the most amazing videos I’ve every watched on the Internet. I was literally left speechless. I can accomplish certain small feats of mental math, but this is absolutely unbelievable. Arthur Benjamin shows us some inspiring abilities of the human mind. I’m sure he has spent a fair amount of time learning his methods, and that to him his abilities are perfectly normal (in some sense!), but it’s great to watch someone with this talent. I highly recommend watching the video in its entirety.
