Everything We Don’t Know About Intelligence

Aperture | May 9, 2026



Everyone is dying. Most of us just don’t think about it until we have to. This compilation sits with the question we spend our whole lives avoiding: what death actually is, what it costs us, and whether escaping it would even be worth it. No easy answers.

1:09:30 – The Depressing Psychology of People with High IQ

    its funny😂because what is.. said in this video.. can be used to advantage.. by people who find themselves not confined in this pyramid, you know who you are. but at the same same time no single individual can fully utilise/exploit those those stuck at lower levels on their own. lemme branch a bit here, if intelligence can be categorised, arent those at the "top" just limited to what they have been categorised in? or maybe we're just talking about the intellegence scale of the current society measured to its current potential? i dont know, can someone understand this? like what is even high intelligence? who gets to define that? how do they know that?🤣🤣🤣 i love you guys every single one of yall

    I’m a little confused about the overall point of this video. Are you trying to teach people how to better understand and interact compassionately with these personality types, or are you unintentionally giving manipulative people a blueprint for how to imitate them?

    You mentioned that truly highly intelligent people often wouldn’t openly present themselves that way, which makes me wonder if some viewers could just use this information to act superior or perform intelligence rather than genuinely develop it.

    This video is scary to me. Usually I avoid these "highly intelligent people" videos cause I don't want to relate myself to that..

    I used to think I was very dumb due to my dyslexia and adhd troubles. Now.. I know I'm not an idiot but I don't perceive myself highly intelligent but you already covered the dunning kruger effect..

    But I understand and relate to pretty much everything in this video. Which I really don't like.
    This world is so exhausting to me. I love interacting with people but nothing is just a situation to me. Everything and everyone is a whole project to me.
    I can't "just" have a conversation. Everything is overwhelming. My mind races through all different storylines while I'm having the 1 real one.
    And even with this comment I feel like I need to stop cause I'm saying too much and need to be quick to the point and maybe "dumb" it down like I always feel I have to do.
    I can never be the full me. And the full me is making me so damn tired..

    That being said this video was very Insightful. Thankyou. Always love the Aperture videos 👌

    I spend most of my time at level 5. Sometimes I create my own theories but generally only when it comes to astronomy. Society is too difficult and complex to quantify

    Nowadays, the majority of society is suffering from overstimulation drowning in useless information, completely unaware of how technology and easy access to the Internet has captured and trapped the minds with endless entertainment. Many are simply overthinking everything, most cannot stop relentlessly judging and comparing themselves to others, and only a few ever stop to question.. Why the big Lie?
