The Clever Man


Kim Peeks, the clever man.


              Dear readers, this is our last story to complete tasks assigned by the lecturer. Our latest title is a clever man in the world. His name is Kim Peeks. He was born on November 11, 1951. He has a remarkable memory as can be given from the age of 16-20 months. He actually diagnose FG syndrome. He read books, memorized them then placed them on the shelf to show that he had finished read them. For him, the local library is Kim's favorite place in the world.

              Kim Peeks can remember everything that he has been read from the first word until the last word exactly like a book that have estimate 360,000 words. For him, he can read a book within ten seconds meanwhile we have to read at least 3 minutes.

              He reads the left page with his left eye and the right page with his right eye and will retain about 98% of it. He took 15 subjects, but he did not know how to solve math problems. According to an article in The Times newspaper, he could accurately recall the contents of at least 12,000 books.

              In 2008, he probably had FG syndrome which causes physical anomalies such as hypertonia (low muscle tone) and macrocephaly (an abnormally large head). On 19 December 2009, he was dead of a heart attack at the age of 58 years.

               In conclusion, we as students want to have a strong memory like him. If we have memory like him, we can pass the examinations easily. On the whole, we should emulate the attitude of diligent reading the book to increase our knowledge. Therefore, we need to make him as a role model to success in the future.

The Iceman

              Hi, recently we have read an article titled ice man. It is an amazing life when people can stay in the coolest air or water in a long hours without clothes. This news has caught our attention and we want to share it with you guys.


             This guy named Wim Hof. He was born in 1959 and he was from the Netherlands. He also holds the world record. His superiority is swimming in the large distances under polar ice, running a marathon barefoot to climbing the Everest in nothing more than a pair of shorts.

              In 2007, he climb Mount Everest with wearing only shorts but at 6.7 km he failed to reach the summit due to injury in his leg. In 2008, he broke his previous world's record by staying immersed in ice for 1 hour, 13 minutes and 48 seconds at Guinness World Records. In 2009, he participated in the marathon in Finland with wearing shorts and reach the finish line with a time of 5 hours 25 minutes.

              Furthermore, in 2010 Wim Hof ​​broke a record in Tokyo, Japan by standing on ice for 1 hour 52 minutes and 42 seconds. Finally, in 2011 he also ran a full marathon in the Namib Desert without water. The run was performed under the supervision of Dr. Thijs Eijsvogels.

               As the conclusion, what was done by Wim Hof ​​really impressed us. Most people can take action, such as Wim Hof ​​but for us there are limits. For us, we can only hold an ice cube in a while because we cannot withstand the cold of the ice cube. So amazing because he has the ability to withstand cold very high.
