- This is an old documentary that was filmed about me and a couple other memory athletes (Ron White, Brad Zupp) during the early days of my memory athlete career. I've always wanted to share and get a lot of requests on where people can watch it. Jonathan Napolitano (www.jonathan-n...) is the film-maker, so check out his website and give him some love.
This takes place in 2010-2011, when I won my first USA Memory Championship. Enjoy!
Synopsis:
A Navy veteran can meet a conference room full of strangers and minutes later recall every person’s name. A software developer can remember the order of a shuffled deck of playing cards in just a minute. A clown can juggle and memorize computer-generated numbers at the same time. This film documents their strange and fascinating journeys as they train for and compete in the 2011 USA Memory Championship.

Damn Nelson, setting all the records!
I just watched your interview with Barbara Oakley in "learning how to learn" course, and with a quick Google search I found this inspiring documentary, thanks for uploading it.
I juggle, memorize and work in a bank... I feel seen 😂
you deserve it congrats !
Keep up the good work, love and awarness, Dimitri from Stockholm.
Today I'm gonna start practicing these techniques. I'll update my progress. By God's grace I'll master these techniques.
Update: I wasn't able to practice today, I procrastinate. But tomorrow I will.
Inspiring. Awesome
Alzheimer's is truly a daunting thing. Who are we, if not for our memories?
Thank you for posting!
This made me think about a Podcast I listened to a while ago. Haha, I wish I could remember who it was... but they said that the more times you recall an event/object the less accurate the memory becomes. Ever heard about that?
Yeah I've heard about that but that's more for like, episodic memory I think. If I memorize a 1000 digits for example, the more times I recall it, the stronger it becomes and the less likely I'll forget it.
Absolutely excellent!
Thanks for uploading. I will definitely watch that over the next few days along with that somewhat similar "Ace of Diamonds V.2 2.17" documentary I just found on vimeo.
LearnToJuggleNOW I was actually going to upload Ace of Diamonds this weekend as well :)
