This child is amazing. When he was three he spent quite some time throwing things into the air. Tried throwing while he was sitting, while he was standing, while he was lying down. He finally asked, "Why do they always come down?" At three he was trying to figure out gravity.

He has three qualities that will make him an outstanding scientist: logic, curiosity and a photographic memory.
