The 2011 movie Limitless explored the possibilities of dramatically expanding ones intelligence. Not only does the main character increase the processing power of his brain, but he suddenly has access to every memory he has ever stored. This is a remarkably powerful combination, especially when used in conjunction with his new found ability to mimic any complex physical move just by watching someone else perform it. This is how he learns Kung Fu. We discuss all of this, as well as the abilities of elite athletes, the deductive ability of Sherlock Holmes, and the power of visualization.
