Secret of Albert Einstein's Brain

Albert Einstein is the father of modern physics. This German born physicist gave birth to many new theories in Physics. Also won Nobel Price for Physics in 1921.


Eminent works of Albert Einstein:

   General relativity and special relativity

   Photoelectric effect

   Mass-energy equivalence

   Quantification of the Brownian motion

   Einstein field equations

   Bose–Einstein statistics

   Unified Field Theory

Albert Einstein has published more than 300 scientific papers.... bla bla bla... I know if I go in this fashion this post will look like a shrunk version of Einstein's Wiki. Lets get to the point... the interesting fact...

This is a funny pic isn't it? But a costly one... yeah it was sold for $74000, (really ??? yes) because its a famous photo of the man of the century. The photo was taken in 1951, and Einstein liked it so much that he ordered 9 copies of it. David Waxman owns this one, but the locations of the other eight (including photographer Arthur Sasse's) are unknown. And again this is not the interesting fact...

How was Einstein able to think more than a normal human? This was an un-answered question for many years. And in the recent times they discovered the secrets that were hidden in his brain. Thomas Stoltz Harvey, pathologist who preserved the brain of Albert Einstein and few other doctors/professors found out that certain parts of Einstein's brain has higher proportion of glial cells than the average male. 


And as always the best is saved for the last :) the video, which made me write this post.
