Professors at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, the U.S. academic homeroom for the likes of Albert Einstein, J. Robert Oppenheimer, and Kurt Gödel, have confirmed he’s on the right track to coming up with something completely new.
He didn’t speak until the age of 2, and was diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome.
At 3, he started solving 5,000 piece jigsaw puzzles.
He later taught himself calculus, algebra and geometry in two weeks.
He can solve up to 200 numbers of Pi.
He finished high school at the age of eight and has been attending college-level advanced astrophysics classes ever since.
His parents have no clue how he learned math, or what he is talking about.
Once, they took him to the planetarium at Butler University. “We were in the crowd, just sitting, listening to this guy ask the crowd if anyone knew why the moons going around Mars were potato-shaped and not round,” Jake’s mother, Kristine Barnett, said. “Jacob raised his hand and said, ‘Excuse me, but what are the sizes of the moons around Mars?’ “
After the lecturer answered, said Kristine, “Jacob looked at him and said the gravity of the planet … is so large that (the moon’s) gravity would not be able to pull it into a round shape.”
“That entire building … everyone was just looking at him, like, ‘Who is this 3-year-old?’
Hi IQ is 170, higher the Albert Einstein’s.
Here he is, giving math lectures.
