60 Minutes did a Two-part piece tonight called The Gift of Endless Memory. It was about this extremely small and select group of people who have the remarkable skill of remembering every single day of their life. They can remember what day it was, the weather, what they wore and ate and what events occurred on that day. The crazy party is, within this group is actress Marilu Henner (TV show Taxi) and TV Producer and Writer Bob Petrella

In the special, Lesley Stahl spoke with different people within the group as well as specialist who are studying their unique skill. They do tests to show their capability and discuss the significance of their talents and how it may change the science of mind as well as other things.

It’s pretty amazing story and Its crazy to me that there are people out there that are capable of such memory. The video is online in two parts. Above is the first part and below is the second part.
