Dominic O'Brien
(10th August 1957 - )
Dominic O'Brien won eight times the World Memory Championships. Since he began developing his memory, Dominic has gained many prestigious titles. He has won many entries in "The Guinness Book of Records." He was named "Brain of the Year 1994" and was awarded the title "Grand Master of Memory" by the Brain Trust of Great Britain in October 1995, presented to him by Prince Philipp of Liechtenstein. Some of the programs he has appeared on are "How Do They Do That?," "Oprah," "You Bet," "Guinness World of Records," "Magic and Mystery," "Tomorrow's World," "Are You Superhuman?," and, of course, "Record Breakers." In 1995 Dominic was the subject of ITV's "Network First's Fear" and "Counting Las Vegas." Dominic set a new world record in August 2000 at the WMC by memorizing perfectly a random sequence of 316 numbers in just 5 minutes. That's faster than 1 digit per second. He is the inventor of the Dominic System, a powerful technique to rapidly access the power of memory.
