Extraordinary Persons in the World!!

Posted by Varumana- Usha

Hi friends,

       We all have IQ. But mainly we are writing exams, its usual that we  forget some answers. But  Kim Ung-Yong at the age of four he was already able to read in Japanese, Korean, German, and English. What an Extraordinary IQ?? If we see other person, Gregory Smith.. He could read at age two and had enrolled in university at 10.Unbelievable!!! Now lets see about them in detail..


1. Kim Ung-Yong: Attended University at age 4, Ph.D at age 15; world’s highest IQ:

              This Korean super-genius was born in 1962 and might just be the smartest guy alive today (he’s recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as having the highest IQ of anyone on the planet).


              At his fifth birthday, he solved complicated differential and integral calculus problems. Later, on Japanese television, he demonstrated his proficiency in Chinese, Spanish, Vietnamese, Tagalog, German, English, Japanese, and Korean. Kim was listed in the Guinness Book of World Records under “Highest IQ”; the book estimated the boy’s score at over 210.

         At the age of 7 he was invited to America by NASA. He finished his university studies, eventually getting a Ph.D. in physics at Colorado State University before he was 15. In 1974, during his university studies, he began his research work at NASA and continued this work until his return to Korea in 1978 where he decided to switch from physics to civil engineering and eventually received a doctorate in that field.


2. Gregory Smith: Nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize at age 12:

                Born in 1990, Gregory Smith could read at age two and had enrolled in university at 10. But “genius” is only one half of the Greg Smith story. When not voraciously learning, this young man travels the globe as a peace and children’s rights activist.



           He is the founder of International Youth Advocates, an organization that promotes principles of peace and understanding among young people throughout the world. He has met with Bill Clinton and Mikhail Gorbachev and spoke in front of the UN. For these and other humanitarian and advocacy efforts, Smith has been nominated four times for a Nobel Peace Prize. His latest achievement? He just got his driver license.
