Jap up for the Guinness with his Pi

Now this is something incredibly wonderful, and probably leave your jaw hanging in awe!

Here's a man from Chiba Prefecture, who challenged himself to recite the value Pi up to the 100,000 digits for 16 hours.

Pi, as we all know, is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. So far, I've come to know the value of Pi only as 3.1416, but this 60-year-old man has done it up to six digits!

Japan Times reports,

He recited the value of pi -- an indefinite number that has no repeating pattern -- stopping at exactly 100,000 digits at 1:28 a.m. Wednesday, the witnesses said.

I could only say, WOW! That's really something to be proud of, and to be rightfully officially listed in the Guinness Book of World Records.

On the sidenote, how I wish I had the mathematical ability to do this. Sad to say, my side of the brain for that is somehow dysfunctional. Good thing I have a calculator. ha! ha! ha! ;)
