This guy was on the BBC for some time...He has been tested by doctors because what he does is thought to be physically impossible...The bodies involuntary spasms and muscular tics etc..They found that he seems to unconciously control his heartbeat and moves his hands BETWEEN beats so that his fingers are perfectly still !!!!!!!!. Good for him...

They say that autism is very prevalent in the human population, in ways that aren't "apparent" (the definition of autism is being expanded outside of the traditional definitions - the mute child who can play piano by ear scenario everyone thinks of). Basically certain people have entirely different brain functions, and different perspectives on reality. The can see things the average person cannot, and can perform in ways the average person cannot understand. I think this would be a good example. And I'm very glad he was able to capitalize on his talent and make himself a millionaire, most of us will never be so lucky, even if we were equally talented.
