Well it's about time Canada blocks you guys out.I get blocked from your links too you know?

I don't know why your blocked it's msn but the Guy is American and he hit his head and started
playing piano like a pro all of a sudden never playing before. Cool story. I'm at work so can't find another link.

I was pretty sure that's who it was going to wind up being. I saw him on a show called "Ingenious Minds" or some shit. IIRC he has had multiple concussions, like 6ish.

The part about how he sees black and white squares in his head that tell him how to play reminds me of Daniel Tammet. He sees shapes, colours, and textures that tell him the answers to complex math problems. He can also learn new languages very easily. For a British documentary, he learned to speak Icelandic in one week (see part 5 of the video below starting at 1:28). Fascinating stuff!
