who is the greatest genius / mind in history ?

[funkyman]

Arthur C. Clark and Gene Rodenberry Hawking is also quite inteligent guy

 

[Jagger69]

interesting , specially nowadays that there seems to be no geniuses...

Stephen Hawking...as others have said.

Now I'm no Einstein, but of those on the list, I'd have to say Leonardo.

 

[calpoon]

Giordano Bruno

 

[DJCowboy]

I voted for all of them, they were all geniuses in their own right. How can you compare the genius of Einstein to the genius of Mozart? They're two completely different fields! Einstein helped explain how our universe might be constructed and Mozart made some classics that have stood the test of time

There are current geniuses as well:
Theo Jansen
Daniel Tammet
I would argue Beck is a musical genius
Steve Jobs
the people who invented String Theory
Like him or not, Bill Gates
Michio Kaku

 

[mrtrebus]

Lord Archibald 'patchy' Patchkinson III

Theo Jansen
Daniel Tammet
I would argue Beck is a musical genius
Steve Jobs
the people who invented String Theory
Like him or not, Bill Gates
Michio Kaku

Bill: business genius.

Steve: innovation genius (and business too!)

:thumbsup:

I think you have left out the greatest of them all: Archimedes

Stephanie Meyer

 

[urgeag]

Gotta at least put the Father of the Mystery Schools on the list:

Pythagoras

 

[miurajota]

DaVinci by far

He was genial in various domains that weren`t even connected (technical-art).

 

[BlueBalls]

Stephanie Meyer

Well, if you're going to throw old Meyer in with the rest of the genii (the word is probably "geniuses", but I perfer genii). I guess Dan Brown has to be mentioned too.

I mean, it's only fair.

 

[turtle825]

Einstein

 

[Hot Mega]

Impossible to choose IMO.

 

[sporty_carr]

Einstein's the man.

 

[STDiva]

People really throw the word genius around a lot. Steve Jobs? srsly? Drink some Hennessy man. That shit is wack.

 

[gunslingingbird]

Stephanie Meyer

And what about Oscar Meyer? :dunno:

 

[meesterperfect]

they were geniuses in different ways.
i think my hometown boy thomas edison should have been on the list but
I'm gonna go with raymond babbit on this, yeah, definately raymond babbit.

 

[Jack Davenport]

Dr. Stephen Hawking

 

[STDiva]

Thom Yorke

 

[gunslingingbird]

I'm gonna go with raymond babbit on this, yeah, definately raymond babbit.

And what about the other Babbit? John Wayne? Oh, wait, that's Bobbit. Nevermind... :o
