"It's not my abilities that are important...it's where I came from that's
important.
I didn't go to college and I graduated high school in the
bottom half of my class...Yet people view me now as a "genius".
That makes me living
proof you can do anything if you put your mind to it. The human brain
truly is amazing."

his audience with phenomenal mental demonstrations and also shares important
life messages.
Super-Human Mental Abilities?
So what kind of mental abilities are we talking about here?
Lightning Mental Calculations
- What is 412 multiplied by 737?
- What is 65 squared?
- What is 857 divided by 7?
- What is the fifth root of 916132832?
Can you do any of those in your head? Ethan can do them all in under
10 seconds - without a calculator, or even a pencil and paper. Even if you hate math, after
seeing Ethan do his "human calculator thing", you'll have a new
appreciation for the science of numbers.
Photographic Memory
- When you play poker, do you forget which cards you have "in the hole"?
(i.e. you keep checking them over and over) - Well, Ethan can memorize an
entire deck in less than 20 seconds, and recall it up to a year later. Wanna
play for money?
- Ethan has entire books committed to memory. Just pick a page and he'll start
reciting. Most people can't remember a story that they've told their 3-year
old fifty seven times.
Mind Over Matter
- On occasion, Ethan will make objects move with his mind. It's freaky
and when you see it. It's one of those things you'll never forget.
"Telepathic Communication"
- Ethan can seemingly "steal thoughts" from a willing participant's
brain. Similar to hypnosis, it's impossible to have your mind "read" unless
you want it to happen - so don't worry. :o)
