Incredible. Children on the Autism spectrum can be exceptionally gifted and creative because of their ability to focus intensely on detail, repetition and long term memory, and also the way their brains process data. They have so much to offer the world. Beautiful reaction, Jay.

My nephew is autistic and he is extremely talented. He just turned 11. People mistake his speaking pattern for him being "slow". He didn't speak until he was six years old; it was thought he would never speak at all. He just suddenly started speaking one day. It was as though he always could speak but just didn't want to, lol. He's so smart and I can't stand it when people form opinions about him due to the way he speaks. When he is more intelligent than most adults at 11 years old.

Before live shows, they have to compete to get to the live shows, by rounds and themes. He bypassed all of it with the Golden Buzzer. He won the season, but performances up to the finale are worth seeing. His duet with Leona Lewis ... Callum Scott is another worth seeing. He and his sister tried out for Britain's Got Talent a few years ago. Chech out his audition. His sister sang right before he did and was denied.
