At what age are you smartest? Dig into how your brain development affects your skills at different stages of your life. Tomorrow is the annual Brain Clash a decathlon of mental challenges, trivia competitions, and puzzles. Amir needs a smart and capable teammate and must choose between three people; all of different ages and talents. So, who should Amir choose for the contest? Shannon Odell breaks down the idea of smart and explores how our brain development impacts our skills at various stages of our lives. RustiX: At the age of 15 I was already good player of strategy games(video games) which adults said that they don't get how I can play such games.
Also at the same age I knew 4 languages, even though it took me some more years to practice them out of the school in real life.
And already at that time I was a good player of games such as Trivia(this game wasn't available at the time, and I didn't play it until later in my life.
I am not sure about the scientifical prove/background behind this video.
But I guess I got some problems, which evolved later into psychological ones, may be that was the payment of being good not at the designated age. But it feels not correlated.

this actually reminds of a study where kids, teens, and adults did a test from nasa themselves.
Most adults failed, half of the teens failed, and most kids passed.
The conclusion they came with is that kids have no consequences for making mistakes and don't fear them at all while teens have fear as they're more or less seen as adults while having creativity similar to a child.
And adults get the short end of the stick as consequences for them messing up can be life changing.
I'd recommend check out the home movies review from emp lemon as he goes into more detail about the Nasa experiment himself.

Without watching I would say 6, because not encumbered by prejudices, BUT I expect each age to have its strength base on exposure, ie younger get more spontaneous skills, older have more skill about stuff that are established. Now let's watch how that turns out.

Not gonna lie. I felt the smartest in my teens. That passion for learning had me reading lots of books, doing activities, and having time to explore. I felt my vocab was at its peak and recall was fast.

There is no specific age in case you don t want to watch the entire video. Thumbs this one down for the clickbait and useless filler information and talking just to say there is no age at the end.

Curiousity quotient come first to develop Intelligent quotient so remember folk be a little and curious and always thrive and pursue knowledge everyday don't miss even a single day

Something about this animation style (the human figures) makes my brain itch! It's perfectly and wonderfully made but I still don't like it
reply

Humans are at their smartest at young ages like 10, which is a good time to change their gender if they think it would be fun to do.
reply

It's gotta be senior citizens 65-90 age range. If they're not the smartest people why would we keep having them be world leaders?
reply

In my experience, 4-year old's have life all figured out. No school, all meals cooked for you, plenty of sleep etc etc.
