It's amazing how having a special ability can force you to take responsibility and make something great out of your life. It gives you that sense of "If not me, then who?" and you have a special sort of obligation to humanity.
Jordan Peterson made me realize that even though I don't have a special gift, It's still my responsibility to do my best to make the world a better place because I'm the only one in control of me, so if not me than who? We are all obligated to get our shit together so we can have an exponentially positive impact in the world, just like those exponential cubes in the drawing in this video.
I mean sounds like he just got set into a constant psychedelic state. Im curious if he has ever used psychedelics before because that is what hes describing basically.
This is incredible. It has been a long time something actually blew my mind! That man became a math genius overnight! No neurologist or psychologist would have ever dared to agree that something like this is possible, before they had witnessed him.
I’ve seen/ met a homeless guy doing these kind or very similar illustrations every day- just by using a pen and small piece of papers.. am amazed how good he is in creating his drawings- clean, very straight lines... and now I understand how good and intelligent he is...
Because he literary says "literary" all the time, as his genius has done nothing to his vocabulary. Also, he has not shown any sign of being a genius, but at the same time several signs of being a fraud. His "realizations" are at the level of a six year old child. And then he got OCD, and couldn't stop drawing lines. Has he shown any real skill with math? No. He just draw lines, and then he met a mathematician who could explain his lines with her knowledge of math. She could. Because she knows math. He could not. He could just draw lines and tell everybody that he is a genius. Open your eyes, man :P Hey, I can even calculate any weekday from any random date, and additionally, I can solve a rubix cube!

After a really bad acid trip, I too saw those moving screenshot frames in my vision. I described it to people like my brain was taking screenshots and I was watching it in real time. I'm glad I'm not alone!
Gaby M That is how I remember my first real "roll" and I used to roll really hard for really long and sometimes I would get the feeling naturally. I felt like the stuff had a different effect on me than most people.
A really intense acid trip made me have HPPD for over a year. Mild hallucinations all the time, visually and auditory, and I thought in a very abstract sense. Everything felt computer simulated and fake. For 6 months I did not feel safe to drive so would have other people drive me around as much as I could. But I feel like I came out of it a more intelligent person, and I think I actually have clearer vision and hearing because of it. Haven't done any drugs since.
i took mushrooms and i saw the same geometry everywhere forming every object, and also the moving screenshot frames in my vision. Only lasted till i ate something and the drug effects went off, since then i understand the world in a different way and want to take them again but i dont have balls cause i might go crazy. When my life is more organiced i will do it
Back in 12th grade, My friends and I smoked some weed and something else was mixed in. I remember being frozen in time and then everything was moving frame by frame. Sometime things would zoom in and then zoom out. My heart was palpitating so hard. Anyways, it took me a while to get back into reality but when I did I never did drugs again and applied myself to school. It's funny because I had a 2.6 in high school and a 4.0 in college, and then went on to graduate school. Don't get me wrong, I worked hard and nothing came easy. But, I also wonder if I would be in the same position if I didn't go through that experience.
Just finished reading his book Struck by Genius. It's a fascinating insight into what happened to him, into the amazing complexities of the human mind, and into the mathematical nature of the universe. Thank you for this talk!
WTF! I got jumped the same way and All I got was a headache for a week! And for sure I got dumber! But maybe the trick is drinking a coke and then getting your ass kick.
I experienced something maybe about 2 or 3 times when I was really tired. I fell asleep and I started dreaming and I could actually see how my brain part by part (or frame by frame) built that dream.
I used to see those patterns a lot when I closed my eyes and it would save all different colours and in pixels as well. I used to draw them on my arm when I would take hallucinogens. I always thought I was terrible at math because I thought too much into it and it didn’t make sense to me but now this is making me want to learn more.
Me too. Back in my late teens and early twenties I did a lot of LSD and would see these patterns and exactly what he's talking about with his hands. We called them trails.
I just came from another video and some people were making fun of this guy but they haven't had access to the different parts of the brain that can make you experience these things. I did a very, very large amount of shrooms as a part of my spiritual experimentation and I saw and felt things that can barely be put into words, and I understand what hes talking about too. There are many different patterns on many different levels on every single thing around us, and I think they are all connected in some way.
After a tbi, I went from honors math being fun to failing. Then, I saw wavelengths, particles, and patterns of light for years. The only other person to understand was a quantum physicist who also saw the same. Then I had another accident and got a few punches to the head. Things changed again including my dialects and speech. I had to learn how to read again at 35. At 15 post tbi, I had a perfect SAT score for English. It's frustrating to be this stupid now. This gives me hope that my brain can and will make new neural pathways.
It's true. We are all anime protagonists. We just need to unlock our vital instinct. All jokes aside, I am very happy for him. He truly has surpassed everyone in math
I tutored algebra at school with teachers while I was a student myself. Some of the tutees will wait for me while there were actual teachers available Simply because I was able to explain shit in everyday life terms. Teaching is an art and if you are not good at the art of explaining things you shouldn't be a teacher. Do research or some
Exactly ! I was teaching my math teachers when I was in grade 7 in breaktime. They also were calling me during the class to explain for "stupid" students...I think there is no such a stupid student its just unqualified teacher! Coz once I explain for them they get an A ... till today I teach math for free coz its my passion n every body should understand its not a class its just a game that you should enjoy!
This happened to me. 2006, five-car chain reaction crash. I had whiplash & a concussion. Developed new abilities, but wasn't sure what they were, or how to describe them. But I had memory lapses, and feared I had brain damage, so I got my IQ tested. I already knew my IQ (120) because I'd been tested before. Got tested, and was told my IQ had gone UP at least 17 points, to 137. IQ is supposed to remain stable over a lifetime, barring major illlness or stress. Began connecting the dots.
@@namthanhnguyen224 but dumbest in my family, bad at arithmetic, poor memory. I am still bad at math, and memorization. But I seem to have new abilities, and that's what I'm curious about. What are they, how far do they go? Do they make any meaningful change in my life, or is it just a useless parlor trick, with no application?
*Interesting talent !* It would be more easy to understand his drawings, if he used colors that represent depth. Blue for deep, red for middle-deep, and yellow for the near. Or something similar.
That wouldn't follow the color spectrum. It would need to follow purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, red to be the right way, or the reverse of that order.
if youve been looking into light and close your eyes, you can see the light still in frames moving away from where youre "looking". Also if you just close your eyes and focus, youll see these patterns all over, vibrating in different speeds.
He is one of the most intelligent souls in the world. He seems to acknowledge everything, present his knowledge as intriguing images and embolden others to enter the realm of knowledge.
I and two of my daughters are engrs. One of them had a concussion while playing Rugby in college, and says that it improved her way of thinking technically. I never got the concussion, but I can still relate to this man's story. I was an awful HS student, and that is partly due to one particularly awful math teacher. After graduating, I quickly became a father, which delayed and slowed my part-time progress at our local college. That is how I got put in a math class together with my younger brother. That made learning math competitive for me. The light starting flickering, and I became a math freak. And that HS teacher? I had her again as a professor in college, and she "taught" the same as before. Referring back to something said in this video, it is important to get the concepts of what you are trying to do, and that is where she always fell way short.
I used to see this patterns when I was younger and sometimes when I close my eyes. It would change colours and shapes. Just amazing. Maybe it's a gift or we all posses this incredible gift and we don't know it
I see a polarized grid everywhere and visualize numbers/square roots the same way without ever suffering a head injury. I'm not sure why only some people can but I'm happy to hear Jason explain it in a way that's easily understood.
@escherlightshows can you explain this -- do you actually see a cartesian graph? do you think that people invented this in mathematics because it's part of the way that we unconsciously process the world anyway?
If the left side of the brain controls logic and mathematics, then how is it that his creative side which is the right side of the brain able to draw "mathematical" drawings? Or did the injury sort of marry the two sides abilities together?
I saw another video about him and the way he draws the images is with a ruler, which I imagine is how any fractal is done so it is probably a more logical method rather than creative.
Totally awesome guy and no criticism whatsoever, but I really hope he hasn't lost the looseness he had prior to his injury. He seems like a totally different person, that kind of thing is depressing
NoiseKidd I think he’s totally indifferent in large part because he grew up and matured. I’m 30 now and “totally different” to who I was when I was 22, which is a very good thing.
Hahah yeah true point, I'm sure that he has some feelings wondering what could've been with what he was or whatnot but I'd at least feel like he probably would think that how he is now is suffice to how he has become
He's sees the wonder of nature & mathematics. He can see an object & realize the amazing mathematics that it can be broken down into. Before if he saw a glass beer bottle with sunlight glowing through it he'd see nothing but an opportunity to get wasted.
He explains an experience I had on marijuana I totally OD on it the only way you can. I remember everything turn into what seemed to be laser dots and was shooting towards me or away from me. It was the craziest thing I can remember and I swore off pot for a long time after that. I couldn’t image having to do this everyday all day and becoming a math wiz.
I think everything this guy said is true. If you have a imaginary mind and if you look closely to your hand you can actually think and see a image of what Jason drew.
It seems like we are living in a matrix that looks real for us. If that's the case then, this universe was made. He describes reality the way my husband describes it and at that time I thought he's crazy
Wonderful Testimony Jason. I too wish I had learned Math in the visual before trying to formularise it. I would have made life much easier for me. Thanks.
JUST CURIOUS, COZ HE MENTIONED ON THIS VIDEO THAT THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS PERFECT CIRCLE. BUT I NOTICED IN HIS INTERFERENCE (FRACTAL) PATTERN, THAT HE'D DRAWN AND SHOWED ON LATER PART, THAT THERE'S A PERFECT CIRCLE FORM IN THE INNER PATTERN THAT I CAN SEE.. THAT'S HOW I LOOK AT IT AND I FEEL LIKE ITS SO PERFECT...MAYBE SOMEONE CAN ENLIGHTEN MY CURIOSITY...TNX

@@oni8337 if you don't get my references then , it's clear you're the one lacking physics knowledge , Jason's drawing actually resemble E8 lattice theory of geometric quantum gravity , but of course you don't know that , that's none of your business anyway .Instead of just stopping at a "finite number," mathematicians mention climbing to the eighth dimension in the form of an E8 lattice which has been linked in mathematical circles to the "voice of God."

@12:26 (I wish, I would have learned that way before i took theis math classes, so the concept would have been embedded first) This is EXACTLY what I wanted to get since my childhood. I am an engineer (a bad one), who used to ask teachers that please teach me with PRACTICAL examples. I never understand completely what the sin theta, beta, alfa etc and the other boring stuff. In my junior years, I used to ask teachers, while taking math, algebra, geometry etc classes, that what the CONCEPT behind equations? give me practical examples. But, sorry to say, they could not.... because, they didn't know also. I am still the same, I understand every thing quickly, if get the practical example, otherwise, my brain doesn't understand what is going on.
Benoit Mandelbrot saw Algebra exactly the same way this guy does -- but he was not hit in the head. Mandelbrot invented fractual geometry, I believe he was on the autisic spectrum. He said when his Algebra teacher wrote an equation on the board he would see the geometrical equivalent. Another thing that relates this guy to people with Autism is Temple Grandin can play video back and forth in her head. So she is a completely visual thinker and when she designs something she can completely see it - she a can look at all sides and move it back in forth. This guy seems to have tapped into things that many autistic can do.
So he immediately decided to go to a SHOPPING MALL after his self-isolation? And how would he have come to the conclusion that there were any differences between what he saw and the interferences, unless he saw something different?
Most people hate Math b'cos they cant relate to it, the drawings and the concepts should be applied to all school, his visions could rev-up, geometry etc.. . .
The only man in the world to ever get some sense knocked into him.

I saw another video about him and the way he draws the images is with a ruler, which I imagine is how any fractal is done so it is probably a more logical method rather than creative.
The sides of the brain is a myth, it comes from a metaphor, not an actual real setup of the brain.
this is one of the most interesting TED talks I watched. Wow!
Came from Kendall Rae’s video too. You are seriously amazing. Our world and universe are so fascinating
It is indeed
I have been hit on the head loads of times and I sure wish one of those times would have given me amazing savant abilities. But, alas, no.
Totally awesome guy and no criticism whatsoever, but I really hope he hasn't lost the looseness he had prior to his injury. He seems like a totally different person, that kind of thing is depressing
NoiseKidd I think he’s totally indifferent in large part because he grew up and matured. I’m 30 now and “totally different” to who I was when I was 22, which is a very good thing.
Hahah yeah true point, I'm sure that he has some feelings wondering what could've been with what he was or whatnot but I'd at least feel like he probably would think that how he is now is suffice to how he has become
Most of the time you can't have the best of both worlds
He's sees the wonder of nature & mathematics. He can see an object & realize the amazing mathematics that it can be broken down into. Before if he saw a glass beer bottle with sunlight glowing through it he'd see nothing but an opportunity to get wasted.
@@ThatOneScienceGuy obviously maturing was part of it but not everyone goes from jock to math genius overnight
1:55 what a friend 💓
This is AMAZING!
I’ve watched several videos on Jason and his perspective on whats going on makes me believe even more this is some sort of simulation
Arrivals would be proud of this man
Would be cool if they made a movie about this.
He explains an experience I had on marijuana I totally OD on it the only way you can. I remember everything turn into what seemed to be laser dots and was shooting towards me or away from me. It was the craziest thing I can remember and I swore off pot for a long time after that. I couldn’t image having to do this everyday all day and becoming a math wiz.
I think everything this guy said is true. If you have a imaginary mind and if you look closely to your hand you can actually think and see a image of what Jason drew.
You're AMAZING!! And a great speaker/teacher as well.
he raises the simple relationship between speed and distance. time must be the relating factor netween the two events.
If it's so simple then why aren't you a professor from Harvard?
@@bigmacdaddy1234 Because what Jason is saying isn't professional level like you think it is
This is so beautiful!
You really have to thank you friend and the attacker.
I wish if I could have a brain injury
like that someday.., may my
enemies live longer for that day...
this is absolutely wild
*Crowd is dead. This guy is blessed.* 🙏🚩
It seems like we are living in a matrix that looks real for us. If that's the case then, this universe was made. He describes reality the way my husband describes it and at that time I thought he's crazy
Wonderful Testimony Jason. I too wish I had learned Math in the visual before trying to formularise it. I would have made life much easier for me. Thanks.
Enjoy the beauty of creation. People take it for granted
I’d really love this guy on JRE
Beautiful story , i am happy that at the end love saved his life what cute baby ❤ 😢 and nice guy
JUST CURIOUS, COZ HE MENTIONED ON THIS VIDEO THAT THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS PERFECT CIRCLE. BUT I NOTICED IN HIS INTERFERENCE (FRACTAL) PATTERN, THAT HE'D DRAWN AND SHOWED ON LATER PART, THAT THERE'S A PERFECT CIRCLE FORM IN THE INNER PATTERN THAT I CAN SEE.. THAT'S HOW I LOOK AT IT AND I FEEL LIKE ITS SO PERFECT...MAYBE SOMEONE CAN ENLIGHTEN MY CURIOSITY...TNX
I can relate to him sometimes I see lights like this
This is absolutely awesome!!!
Amazing, I wish there was a study on people in comas by using the Functuional MRI, to test the brain...... maybe there is hope to develop another form of therapy to regenerate the brain and awaken the individual. 🙏
This is insane 😦
No it's genius! Sometimes it can be hard to tell the difference. /s
Yeah, insane how some self-proclaimed mathematical genius hasn't a modicum of knowledge about mathematics or theoretical physics
@@oni8337 what are you on about ?? Poincare Lorentz Einstein spacetime theory really need reformulation , Witten String Theory is purely mathematical speculation , Fractal space-time would be a nice addition
@@aqilshamil9633 what am I on about??? take a look at what you just said
@@oni8337 if you don't get my references then , it's clear you're the one lacking physics knowledge , Jason's drawing actually resemble E8 lattice theory of geometric quantum gravity , but of course you don't know that , that's none of your business anyway .Instead of just stopping at a "finite number," mathematicians mention climbing to the eighth dimension in the form of an E8 lattice which has been linked in mathematical circles to the "voice of God." It is a reference to University of Cambridge mathematicians Simon Norton and John Conway and the "monster group".
If this life is all about being a wagie wojak in a corrupt unfair economics chattels , of course that's a damned stupid life .
Now i wish to actually understand that drawings in my mind ...
Have an accident then lol
they beat the stupidity out of him
mikatteba225 yah, literally
lol
You need to find that guy to thank him
@12:26 (I wish, I would have learned that way before i took theis math classes, so the concept would have been embedded first)
This is EXACTLY what I wanted to get since my childhood. I am an engineer (a bad one), who used to ask teachers that please teach me with PRACTICAL examples. I never understand completely what the sin theta, beta, alfa etc and the other boring stuff.
In my junior years, I used to ask teachers, while taking math, algebra, geometry etc classes, that what the CONCEPT behind equations? give me practical examples. But, sorry to say, they could not.... because, they didn't know also.
I am still the same, I understand every thing quickly, if get the practical example, otherwise, my brain doesn't understand what is going on.
Still don't know how the hell this is possible
that insight can be greatly used for biomedical engineering advances
sounds like angela and her date mugged him
lmfao
6:50 this guy has never taken LSD
Exactly mu through
Simple LSD
10:05 it took me a second or two to see the cubes
Right I thought it was a 2D hexigon but then I realized it's a 3D cube. Or 512 3D cubes as the case may be.
That woman's name? Albert Einstein.
i appreciate you
@Kelyn Ferguson Nice try! Your name idiot.
Alberta Estein!
:22 seconds is a hilarious nervous laugh
Benoit Mandelbrot saw Algebra exactly the same way this guy does -- but he was not hit in the head. Mandelbrot invented fractual geometry, I believe he was on the autisic spectrum. He said when his Algebra teacher wrote an equation on the board he would see the geometrical equivalent. Another thing that relates this guy to people with Autism is Temple Grandin can play video back and forth in her head. So she is a completely visual thinker and when she designs something she can completely see it - she a can look at all sides and move it back in forth. This guy seems to have tapped into things that many autistic can do.
Thank you Sir
We definitely will be able to replicate what happened to him to the masses one day
So he immediately decided to go to a SHOPPING MALL after his self-isolation? And how would he have come to the conclusion that there were any differences between what he saw and the interferences, unless he saw something different?
i need a talk with this man damn
Most people hate Math b'cos they cant relate to it, the drawings and the concepts should be applied to all school, his visions could rev-up, geometry etc.. . .
