Indian learns 80 numbers in 13.5 seconds, becomes world champion

Indian student Vishwaa Rajakumar (20) won the World Memory Championship by accurately repeating sequences of cards, numbers, names, pictures and words.

According to the official Memory League World Championship website, Rajakumar managed to memorize a sequence of 80 random digits in just 13.5 seconds and was able to recall 30 images in just 8.53 seconds.

The Manakula Vinayagar Institute of Technology student competed against 16 competitors from the top of the Memory League world rankings in the championship held online.

"Hydration is important because it helps the brain. If you don't drink a lot of water, your speed will be lower. If you drink a lot of water, everything will be clearer and you will read faster," Rajakumar told the New York Times.

When asked about how he remembers the sequences, the student explained that he visualizes them in the form of a “memory palace.” It starts with his room, then the kitchen, the hallway, the porch, and the bathroom.

Talking about his plans, Rajakumar said that he wants to become a memory expert and set up an institution in India that will be dedicated to teaching people these techniques.

The World Memory Games Championship was held from January 5 to February 2. Each match in the competition had five rounds, and the player who won the most rounds became the world champion.
