It was so interesting to see and hear Kim Peek speak with his dad. I was not very familiar with the movie rain man so it was all very interesting for me to hear about him. It made me want to watch the movie and learn more about him. So I couldn’t learn everything about him in an hour. It was cool to see Kim talking with his father in the beginning about himself. Crazy how they didn’t know what was wrong with for many years since they did not have the technology needed. It amazes me how Kim can walk and sees to me that he would be able to do a lot of things to take care of himself. It surprised me in knowing that he cannot bath, shave, and sometimes feed himself. I was impressed with his speaking ability. He is differently different from other mentally retarded people. He has so many numerous talents it is unbelievable. I could not believe that he knew whom someone was by his name and his accent of where he was from. It completely blew me away at everything he knew about the man.
His memory is unbelievable with all the books, numbers, places, historic events that he can remember. I love his saying, “You don’t have to be handicap to be different, everybody is different.” I think that is so true, we all are different in our own ways. I enjoyed the part where anyone could ask questions and he could pretty much know every answer they asked.
