Video: The boy who can't forget: student remembers every detail of the past Can you remember what you were doing on July 7 2008? Aurelien Hayman can and he knows immediately, and without looking at a calendar, that it was a Monday. The 20-year-old student, whose story is featured in a Channel 4 documentary on Tuesday night, can remember every detail of the past in vivid detail right down to what he ate and what the weather was like. Take Friday the 25th of November 2005 for example: "I remember the 25th being the day when it snowed in the morning and I think it was the day that George Best died," he says. I've never met anyone who's been able to do what I do. It just seems there are no gaps at all, I can just see it all. In fact, there are a few other people in the world who are able to recall an incredible amount of their lives, an ability that baffles experts, but which could teach scientists more about the way memory works. The Boy Who Can't Forget is on Channel 4 on Tuesday 25th September at 9pm.
