Can't be....I scored a 187 or 188 on one of those IQ test...course it was on a computer; and I took a little longer than the prescribed time. I'm no genius...maybe a little above average; but I'm certainly no genius.....and Einstein's a 160? Uh-uh.

....which just goes to show that Mike could have a 160 IQ.

Two things:

1. IQ's tests are culturally biased and sexually (man/woman) biased.
2. They determine your "potential"...not how educated you are....so, Mike's reading skills have nothing to do with his IQ.

The table is correct...no one knows Einstein's true IQ but because of his dyslexia an IQ test would not show his true intelligence regardless.

http://www.einstein-website.de/z_inf...ousthings.htmlAs far as we known today, Albert Einstein has never done any IQ test. Thus his IQ is unknown!

In the 20ies scientists had tried to estimate the IQ of deceased personalities such as Mozart (1756-1791) and Goethe (1749-1832) by means of biographic data; thus they wanted to estimate Albert Einstein’s IQ, too. The value estimated for Einstein was between 160 and 180. But this rough estimation can not count as Einstein’s IQ!

Children also wanted to know Einstein’s IQ. Thus a ten-year-old girl wrote a letter to Einstein at the end of the 40ies which said:

"…I’m writing to you because my cousin and I had a bet. He said you had 175 in entiledgence. And I said you had 190. Which one of us is right. … My inteligence is 145."

Kim Peek...the man that inspired the movie "Rain Man"

"Peek has scored below average on general IQ tests; however he has scored very high in some subtests"

"He read books, memorized them, and then placed them upside down on the shelf to show that he had finished reading them, a practice he still maintains. He reads a page of text in about 10 seconds (about a book per hour) and, apparently, remembers everything he has read, memorizing vast amounts of information in subjects ranging from history and literature, geography, and numbers, to sports, music, and dates. He can recall some 12,000 books from memory. Peek can also do formidable calculations in his head"

Daniel Tammet...there was a program on television about him not to long ago

This isnt a joke thread . It is generally believed that mike tyson has the iq of a goldfish but anyone who has interviewed him will attest to the fact that tyson is far more intelligent than the dim witted imbecile that is perpetuated by the media.

yeah it was higher than yours.

he doesn't make the same thread about footwork 5 times.

He aint as dumb as he looks, but the real question is...Did he had the feet to be fleetfooted?

I don't know why this is funny, but it is.

I don't think that's necesary.It's not a requirement for boxers isn't it?

Well the way he messed up his life and got in trouble in and out of the ring reflects what kind of IQ the guy has.

I have nothing against Tyson, in fact he is one of my favorite fighters but he's not one of the smartest people I have known.

Tyson is NOT ******ed he is quite intelligent and Very knowledgeable when it comes to boxing.. What he is.. is unwise.. and emotionanly unstable.. But that dont mean he is ******.. just ****ed up
