Clive Wearing is this British musician who got hit by a rare virus, and it totally messed up his memory.
Like, he can't remember stuff for more than a few seconds. It's wild—he feels like he's waking up fresh every few seconds. But here's the thing: he's still a genius at the piano and can chat normally for a bit before he forgets everything again. Despite his memory being shot, he's still madly in love with his wife, Deborah, which is pretty heartwarming. His story has blown up in the science world, helping researchers understand more about how our brains handle memories.
