Akira Anime: Man's Road AMV
Odds are Georgia Brown is smarter at age 2 than you were at age 6. She could crawl at five months, walking four months later and nine months after that (18 months old), she was able to have conversations!
Georgia, two years and nine months old, scored in the top 2% of her age group with a 152 IQ.
The thing I found most striking was the copying of a circle. Most two-year-olds cannot do that but she drew a perfect one.

 
"I was quite elated - I had come unexpectedly into the presence of something rather special.

 
"She scored 152 points but I think she could have got more - she just got very tired. Concentrating for three-quarters-of-an-hour at that young age is amazing."

Georgia was accepted as a member of Mensa, as the youngest female member. Mensa is a high-IQ society whose potential members fall into the 2% -upper crust- of the population. In the 1990s a boy several days younger became the youngest ever member of Mensa.

I suspect she'd be bored at meetings.

I bet she is still hypnotised by the jingling of car keys too.

I've never met anyone from Mensa that I didn't have an instant loathing for.  I guess I'll make an exception.  Poor kid.
