2-year-old toddler joins Mensa

A two-year-old child has become the youngest boy to join Mensa - the society for the brainiest two per cent of people in the world.

Adam Kirby isn't just smarter than his playmates, instead he is a whole lot brighter than David Cameron and Barack Obama too, the Daily Express reported.

In an IQ test, he scored 141, bettering the Prime Minister and US President by a full 10 points.

The toddler- who was invited to join the elite group after demonstrating an ability to read Shakespeare and understand Japanese, Spanish and French- stunned his parents by spelling 100 words.

Parents, Dean and Kerry-Ann Kirby, were also left amazed after their son mastered both his times tables and the periodic table of chemical elements.

 

Adam's IQ of 141 - just four shy of the Genius category - compares with the average Briton's score of 100.
