Quantum Physics was only the first piece of my puzzle - Laurent Simons
While most kids are still learning the basics of life in their pre-teens, that's not the case for Laurent Simon. When he was younger, even younger than now, Laurent Simon was raised by his grandparents. They were telling their mother and father he seemed very smart. The nine year old has IQ. That puts him just under Einstein and Stephen Hawking, but above about 99.9 of everyone else, just earned his bachelor's degree in physics from the University of Antwerp.
At age 11, he says he wants to use his rapidly increasing knowledge to make humans immortal. He not only received a bachelor's degree, but he received it summa laude meaning with the greatest honor he did in just a year, which would normally take a regular human three years ago. He told the Dutch daily the telegraph that it didn't matter to him if he was the youngest person to receive a bachelor's degree. It was all about gaining knowledge for him. He completed his high school education in just 1.5 years and received his high school diploma at the age of 8.
Last year, he became interested in classical mechanics and quantum physics and he quickly became obsessed with knowing everything about them he then placed all his other projects are on hold in order to focus only on this. His goal is to make people immortal.. According to Simmons, quantum Physics was only the first piece of his puzzle in this, in this to replace bodily components with mechanical ones and attain immortality.
