The
Human brain is at the epicenter of the human nervous system enclosed in
a hard shell called cranium, one of the most vital part of our system.
The Human brain is three times as large as the brain of any other mammal with an equivalent body size.
Few people born gifted by the most precious wealth of the nature, intelligence.
They are different from ordinary people and their approach toward different situations of life is unique.
They belong to different walks of life and do better than the average person.
Most of the intelligent people struggle very hard throughout their lives and made a history with their innovative skills and accomplishments.
This list honors the Top 10 Smartest People in the World.

Polgár is the only woman to have won a game from a current world number one player, and has defeated nine current or former world champions in either rapid or classical chess: Anatoli Karpov, Garry Kasparov, Boris Spassky, Vasily Smyslov, Veselin Topalov, Viswanathan Anand, Ruslan Ponomariov, Alexander Khalifman, and Rustam Kasimdzhanov. She is the second chess master to appear on this list.
6. James Woods

Woods was a vocal supporter of former U.S. President George W. Bush and the Iraq War, though he is a registered Democrat. He is also an avid support of former Mayor of New York Rudy Giuliani. Woods lobbied hard to play Giuliani in the biopic Rudy: The Rudy Giuliani Story, and considers the role one of the favorites of his career.
5. Garry Kasparov

Kasparov was recognized as the “classical” world champion until 2000, when he was defeated by Vladimir Kramnik. He has an IQ of 190.

At just 12, he took up college level courses in physics and calculus and won a Gold Medal at International Physics Olympiad at 13 and became the youngest American to achieve that. He is currently teaching astrophysics at California Institute of Technology and he’s only 31 year’s old. Hirata deserves mention on this list for his achievement as the youngest American (at 13) to win a gold medal in the International Physics Olympiad in 1996.
