We’d struggle to draw a map of the JOE office from memory, let alone the entire world.
An autistic 11-year-old boy walked into a classroom and drew an amazingly accurate world map from memory.
The youngster from New York drew the map – complete with borders between countries and tiny coastal islands – standing on a chair at times to complete his masterwork.
Reddit user Bobitis, who posted the images online says:
“He is the son of one of my daughter’s professors. He came into the classroom today and did this.
“I was amazed…especially as a father of a child with similar attributes.”
No-one fully understands why some people with autistic disorders are capable of incredible feats of memory like this.
