Nelson Dellis, five-time USA Memory Champion, answers the internet's burning questions about memory. How come it's easier to remember Taylor Swift lyrics than psychics formulas? How do you remember lines over night? Is there a correlation between exercise and memory? What is a memory palace? Nelson answers all these questions and much more! ChristophGangrel: Here's a interesting trick to study for your test or exam. First check if your teacher or whoever wont have anything against you chewing gum during the exam. And the trick is to chew it during studing and tahn chew it while taking the exam. Its best to chose gum with distinc falvour and smell. It basicly uses what he mentioned about smell and worked like charm for me back in the day.

Yep, linking totally works. Many years ago I used linking to pass the knowledge test to be a taxi driver. To pass the test I was given a long, random list of streets in my town and I had to remember an adjoining one for each. Pass mark was something like 90%. I learned the whole A-Z in two weeks and passed first time which was unheard of. I have a totally average memory. It's a brilliant way to learn long lists and I still use it to this day. (PS Probably fortunately for everyone I never became a taxi driver, I drove one limo for a school prom and decided it wasn't for me)

DO NOT TAKE HIS PASSWORD ADVICE. The password he came up with is god awful and insecure. It's short AF and uses very little variety. Instead, use the full phrase. NelsonCharlesDellisrocksmysocksoff! would be MUCH better, just as easy to remember. OR just use a password manager that makes passwords and stores them for you.

I used to have a crazy good memory until around 6 years ago, then after some traumas I started to feel a very big difference. Now I don't remember things as easily as I did then - still have a pretty good memory, but definitely lost most of my ability to remember stuff

I'm about to ruin your day by making you remember something you wish you can forget just as easy.
Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
It's hard to look right at you, baby

This is interesting. For some reason I can remember the exact layout and Floorplan of every house I've been in.
If I can remember being in the house, I can remember the EXACT Floorplan. It's so weird to me.

Man. somehow. I felt like it was a waste to not have a sponsor for something related to cyber security when the question for passwords popped up XD But having an actual answear is great too ofc

The only thing I was doubtful of was the foods. Every growers association puts forth studies that their food helps with this or that. Many to most have not ever been scientifically reproduced in tests.

Idk about the stress helping consolidate memory. While I ve certainly experienced that, at the same time, I feel stressed almost all the time, and I have always had a terrible memory.

Your video editor put the wrong card over Bear Grylls. He is 8 clubs not 10 clubs. You probably have poor Nelson here imagining Barack Obama urinating in a thong instead

This dude looks like Bert Krischer if he never drank alcohol and didn t become a comedian. If he was a normal human that didn t f ck dogs. Can you see it?
reply

very cool fun fact about smell being evolutionarily older and therefore bypassing the thalamus and that being why smell memories are so immediate
reply

Broo my phone during school somehow clicked on this and went to the middle of the video and started playing during advisory (6th hour)
reply

I've never heard of a memory champion or coach before. I like how Wired can find experts at topics nobody really knows or thinks about
