&gt; “The wife and children have gone abroad; the husband is not scared.”<p>&gt; If you can memorize that sentence you can memorize the first 15 digits of pi.<p>That still does not explain how he remembered all 100 000. There must be more to it. Much more. When you remember a story, even visually, you don&#x27;t remember specific order of words. While recalling you might switch some words around, change them with synonyms, etc. How he remembered these stories exactly to the last word with this method?
