  who in like The public I have bought isn't right.
• 1:14
  So let me know in the description below.
• 1:15
  If you can think of anybody who I haven't mentioned here, who
• 1:17
  has an Autism Spectrum condition and a famous, put in a comment
• 1:20
  down below. I read and respond to every
• 1:21
  single comment. So it's never wasted.
• 1:23
  Let's open dialogue and have a conversation.
• 1:25
  You're awesome. Okay, let's get into the list.
• 1:27
  Okay. So number one is the late,
• 1:28
  great, Robin Williams, not Robin Williams as an active in an
• 1:31
  amazing films, like Jumanji and like mrs.
• 1:33
  Doubtfire. And he said that a whole host of
• 1:36
  films at Fantastic actor, but terribly troubled, with other
• 1:39
  mental health conditions that came come overtly.
• 1:41
  Now a lot of People who know of him, do say that his condition
• 1:46
  of who he was, was kind of a creative or introverted and very
• 1:49
  much in line with like Asperger's Syndrome, like the
• 1:51
  autism spectrum disorder type of character which would explain
• 1:55
  why he had come morbid conditions like depression and
• 1:57
  anxiety, because it kind of came hand-in-hand with his condition
• 2:00
  and sadly, we did lose Robin Williams to suicide.
• 2:03
  And yeah. Well, we salute, your captain.
• 2:06
  My captain probably doesn't know that was from the Dead Poets
• 2:08
  Society, which I've never seen, But I want to see what my dad
• 2:10
  told me about it and he cried. So.
• 2:12
  So, I'm scared to watch it in case, it makes me emotionally
• 2:14
  vulnerable, but I will definitely check it out.
• 2:16
  If you've watched that, give this video a thumbs up because
• 2:18
  I've never seen Dead Poets Society.
• 2:20
  Okay. Number two.
• 2:21
  This is kind of like a bit of a controversial one, but it's
• 2:23
  Vladimir Putin. Vladimir Putin is the almighty
• 2:26
  leader of the Communist Regime of Russia.
• 2:30
  Now, Russia is a country on the Eurasian continent.
• 2:34
  It's half an Asian half in Europe.
• 2:36
  So I've Loved you've done with your, it isn't a conflict.
• 2:39
  That's what they call that the mixture between the two content.
• 2:42
  Vladimir Putin is a very interesting guy, very
• 2:44
  introverted, very clever guy. And again, it's been rumored
• 2:47
  that he himself just weighs a lot of traits of these from the
• 2:51
  autism spectrum. Due to his like intervarsity,
• 2:53
  his obsession with things his, his monotonal, no facial
• 2:57
  expressions, kind of look. He never liked laughs and
• 2:59
  smiles, or like, feels really upset.
• 3:01
  He's kind of like Just One Look the whole time.
• 3:03
  He's quite monotonal throughout the board.
• 3:05
  He shows no emotions anything. The guys are very interesting
• 3:08
  bloke, but also quite controversial because he's been
• 3:11
  like the He left it will person Russia for the past like 30 or
• 3:14
  40 years or something ridiculous.
• 3:15
  So yeah, I thought it'd be interesting one to put in there.
• 3:18
  Right. Number three is Sir Anthony
• 3:20
  Hopkins. Now Anthony Hopkins, family
• 3:22
  doesn't know this is a actor and he is a very famous active in
• 3:26
  all kinds of phenomena like just over here all day reading out
• 3:29
  his films, but him and his wife said that there was some issues
• 3:33
  with him and she noticed that he was, you know, hit have some odd
• 3:36
  behaviors, I guess because you know, noodles are neurologically
• 3:38
  speaking. He's a bit different than the
• 3:40
  average neurotypical person so him.
• 3:42
  Like having disagreements, and he got himself, you know, a
• 3:44
  therapist and different types of things and eventually was
• 3:46
  diagnosed with Asperger syndrome.
• 3:48
  And his wife said, that's what makes him brilliant.
• 3:50
  But also makes me quite annoying, which I found quite
• 3:53
  funny because I also know my girlfriend.
• 3:55
  But also, she really enjoyed the fact that I can really get into
• 3:58
  something that I'm really into. I know everything about it and
• 4:01
  get really like, you know, obsessed with my, my obsessions,
• 4:05
  but Anthony Hopkins are very inspirational guy and it's so
• 4:08
  nice to see someone of such like, you know, he's really
• 4:11
  notable. He's really creative in such a
• 4:12
  successful person. It's nice to see somebody like
• 4:15
  that on the Spectrum. You can look up to that person.
• 4:17
  Okay. So number four is Bill Gates.
• 4:19
  Now. Bill Gates is an interesting
• 4:21
  guy. He actually founded the company
• 4:23
  Microsoft back in like that. I don't know the 70s or
• 4:26
  something ridiculous, like that. I'm currently is still the CEO
• 4:29
  CEO. I think of the Microsoft
• 4:33
  Corporation and forgive me if I'm wrong here, but I'm sure he
• 4:36
  still is involved in Microsoft in terms of like a CEO position.
• 4:40
  But Bill Gates actually he's been Rumored to rock back and
• 4:43
  forward which is called stimming.
• 4:45
  When he's in meetings and he's concentrating.
• 4:46
  A meeting with people in board meetings, which is really
• 4:49
  interesting. Also, the guy having an
• 4:50
  obsessive interest with computers and technology in
• 4:53
  creating different like, you know, PCI PCI boards and stuff
• 4:56
  like that for computers. I think that's just super
• 4:59
  interesting and his brain works in a very complex way.
• 5:02
  He's highly intelligent and he is very old.
• 5:05
  He's an old guy, you know, he like certain things and he's
• 5:07
  very introverted and I think that that goes a long way.
• 5:10
  So people do speculate and Really say, well, you know, we
• 5:13
  think of Bill Gates is on the spectrum because of the way he
• 5:16
  is and the way he act, but that is just speculation.
• 5:18
  Again, he hasn't got official diagnosis.
• 5:20
  As far as I'm aware. He might do now, but the time
• 5:22
  of, you know, put this video out, he is don't think he has an
• 5:25
  official diagnosis, but the next one number five is actually the
• 5:28
  lead on from Bill Gates. So this guy is Steve Jobs and
• 5:32
  the late great Steve Jobs because he's actually dead now.
• 5:34
  Steve Jobs blessing and he is the co-founder of apple.
• 5:38
  He was CEO, but he's the founder of Apple and apple.
• 5:40
  Other people who make like iPhones and And MacBooks and
• 5:43
  these things. So apple is super awesome
• 5:46
  company. I love their technology and
• 5:47
  their technology has helped me in ways that I just ridiculous
• 5:51
  like the accessibility for iPads and iPhones.
• 5:53
  Just amazing. Now, Steve Jobs is really
• 5:55
  interesting guy. He was like super, super like
• 5:58
  he's very straight on to what he wants to do.
• 6:01
  He's very determined. He knows what he wants to do and
• 6:03
  he's going to do it and nothing can sway from that.
• 6:04
  It's a kind of like he has a direct route and everything is
• 6:07
  on the Spectrum, knows how stubborn we can be.
• 6:08
  When we want to get something done and do it kind of like with
• 6:10
  it, Apple computers. He didn't want to have people
• 6:13
  being able to edit them and upgrade them.
• 6:14
  We wanted to give them a product kind of like in.
• 6:16
  This is the analogy. He said he said that you
• 6:18
  wouldn't have a you know, Leonardo da Vinci painting a
• 6:20
  painting. And then the audience shout.
• 6:21
  I'll say like, hey, can you change this and change that?
• 6:23
  He said, no, everything is a work of art and he's absolutely
• 6:26
  right and he made these beautiful computers in his
• 6:28
  vision. Now, Steve Jobs also did
• 6:30
  something I find rather strange. He have rituals and routines
• 6:33
  that he had to do in my life. No matter where he was.
• 6:35
  Now, one thing he wanted to do before, going on stage was wash
• 6:38
  his feet. Now, he would wash his feet
• 6:39
  anywhere as long as of water possible and in one of the
• 6:42
  Biggest conferences he ever did for Apple before going on stage.
• 6:45
  You put his feet into the toilet bowl and washed his feet in the
• 6:47
  toilet bowl before going on stage because that's Steve Jobs.
• 6:50
  Okay? Number six is one of the most
• 6:52
  interesting guys. I've come across whilst doing my
• 6:54
  research on this stuff. Now, I did a video all about
• 6:57
  this guy and this one is Kanya West.
• 7:00
  Now, if you want to check out the video where I talked in
• 7:01
  depth, what Kanye West and is the MS symptoms and issues and
• 7:04
  all that kind of stuff. I'll leave a link in the card
• 7:06
  above here in the description below and on the end slate.
• 7:08
  So you can get a more well-rounded view of what I'm
• 7:10
  talking about, but very much in the Nutshell for this video
• 7:13
  because we're going through like nine here.
• 7:14
  Can you West is a very interesting guy?
• 7:16
  He actually has, he said public meltdown to the private
• 7:19
  meltdowns is very introverted, very creative intense guy.
• 7:22
  He suffers from a condition called synesthesia, which is
• 7:25
  basically where you see sound as color rather than seeing salad,
• 7:29
  not what rather than hearing sound.
• 7:31
  You see, Co like us. When he slams the door, you see
• 7:32
  a flash of blue light stuff like that, which is where he gets
• 7:35
  his, like, musical artistic Flare from I guess but
• 7:38
  synesthesia is comorbid with autism and usually diagnosed
• 7:41
  with Along with an Autism Spectrum condition.
• 7:43
  Now, after that diagnosis recently.
• 7:46
  He got diagnosed with bipolar disorder, which is actually very
• 7:49
  common for people to be diagnosed bipolar, when they
• 7:51
  actually should be diagnosed with autism.
• 7:53
  Now, Kenya has been Kanya West, you can take it on the chin and
• 7:56
  just, you know, get on with it and that him but very, very
• 7:59
  fascinating. I don't know if he has an
• 8:01
  official diagnosis of autism, but I guess that everything else
• 8:04
  has been diagnosed with will give him that that basic
• 8:08
  understanding that he's on the autism spectrum.
• 8:09
  Because even having synesthesia me here on the Spectrum.
• 8:12
  I'm basically and also, I would be surprised if the guys either
• 8:14
  HD because the guys just non-stop and he is like so
• 8:18
  work-obsessed and so interesting.
• 8:20
  I saw him on a show called The Keeping Up with the Kardashians
• 8:22
  and he is such an interesting guy and I would just would never
• 8:26
  have it again. So yeah, this guy is definitely
• 8:28
  on the autism spectrum. Okay.
• 8:30
  Number seven, one of my favorite guys in business.
• 8:32
  This guy is Elon Musk. Do you love Mercy?
• 8:35
  Family doesn't know, is one of the founders of PayPal who then
• 8:38
  went on to found a Tesla, the car company and in recent years.
• 8:42
  SpaceX, which is one of the most interesting exciting and awesome
• 8:45
  space. Exploration companies in our
• 8:48
  history and SpaceX. I just super amazing people like
• 8:50
  a car in space. They do all kinds of cool stuff
• 8:53
  in the suits are like super high-tech and like it's awesome
• 8:55
  that I touched me. For everything, even their
• 8:57
  spaceships are cool. But Elon Musk is a very, very
• 9:01
  interesting guy. Like Elon Musk has been rumored
• 9:03
  to be on the autism spectrum. I saw a interview with him and
• 9:07
  he was very monotone, all he talks really odd, his speech
• 9:09
  patterns are very, very odd. Indeed, and very, A common of
• 9:12
  that on the autism spectrum, but one thing I find most
• 9:14
  interesting about him is his obsession of his interest of
• 9:17
  specific interest came before everything even sleeping.
• 9:20
  So when he moved to, I think it was Silicon Valley when he
• 9:23
  wanted to start up her calling company to which eventually
• 9:26
  became PayPal. I guess he was living in an
• 9:30
  office here in an office. Before we rent an apartment and
• 9:32
  had a sulfur in the office. So he slept on the sofa too,
• 9:34
  cold all night, and then he just basically pitch all day.
• 9:37
  And so this guy never really slap, you know, he's sleeping
• 9:40
  sleep, a couple hours on the sofa and get back to It's like
• 9:42
  the schedule workaholic and I love that.
• 9:44
  I love how his brain works, because I get it.
• 9:46
  And the interesting thing was, he had a girlfriend and his
• 9:49
  government was like, always the bed and he goes.
• 9:50
  Look, there's no bad. You had to sleep on the sofa,
• 9:52
  love. This relationship is over and
• 9:54
  she dumped them. And they want to go, it was
• 9:56
  really interesting. So his work came first and that
• 9:58
  dedication to be in very mindset of like, let's get it done.
• 10:01
  That's super interesting, and Elon Musk man.
• 10:03
  The guy's awesome. Okay.
• 10:04
  Number eight. This person does have an
• 10:06
  official diagnosis of Asperger's syndrome and it is the awesome
• 10:09
  Courtney Love. Now Courtney, Love for people
• 10:10
  who don't know what. As the former wife.
• 10:12
  And now we do of the amazing guitarist and singer in the
• 10:16
  band. Nirvana, Kurt Cobain Kurt,
• 10:18
  Cobain, suddenly commit suicide, and there's some speculation
• 10:21
  about that. But Courtney Love was also in a
• 10:22
  band called hole which are amazing and they were featured
• 10:25
  on a movie called American Pie, which is also another cool
• 10:28
  movie. Because my friend is in that
• 10:29
  scene and name is Kevin Myers in that, but his actual name is
• 10:32
  Thomas Nicholas. And yeah, he's a cool guy.
• 10:34
  I love Tom. He's a good friend of mine.
• 10:36
  But Courtney Love's band hole were amazing.
• 10:38
  But Courtney Love Actually is on the autism spectrum and she was
• 10:41
  diagnosed. In the 90s, I think and she said
• 10:43
  it kind of helped her understand herself a little bit more, but
• 10:46
  it also gave people the opportunity to kind of look to
• 10:49
  understanding more about her rather than she's just this
• 10:51
  rebellious like Teenage like rock chick.
• 10:53
  She was actually this kid. He was a bit misunderstood and
• 10:56
  needed a little bit more help and I think that was really
• 10:57
  awesome and have stories fascinating.
• 10:59
  So I highly recommend checking it out.
• 11:00
  If you want to read more on courtly, love, her story is
• 11:02
  really interesting. I believe she has like a block
• 11:04
  or a book out on it. Don't quote me on X.
• 11:06
  I'm not entirely sure but definitely yeah, definitely
• 11:09
  check it out, Connie loves. Has, this is awesome.
• 11:12
  Okay. So number nine.
• 11:13
  This is probably the most interesting.
• 11:14
  One, a guy who is on the autism spectrum.
• 11:17
  Again. This is speculative.
• 11:19
  I don't think this guy had a diagnosis because it wasn't, you
• 11:21
  weren't able to diagnose when the sky was alive, and he's now
• 11:23
  dead, which was Charles Richter. Now Charles R.
• 11:26
  If they're in people that I could, it's Charles Richter, but
• 11:29
  he invented the Richter Scale. So when you have like magnitude
• 11:33
  earthquakes and that you want to measure them, they measure them
• 11:36
  on the Richter Scale. He invented the Richter Scale.
• 11:38
  Hence, why it's called a Richter Scale because he made how the
• 11:41
  seismic, Changes in the platonic plates actually move.
• 11:44
  So this guy was super interesting and he like was just
• 11:47
  so like hmm, like focused on science and left her all that
• 11:51
  stuff. It's just amazing.
• 11:52
  I love that kind of stuff and I love that learning about brain
• 11:55
  the autism brain. And yeah, super fascinating.
• 11:57
  I'm very inspiring. So there you have it guys.
• 11:59
