Depending on whether or not one considers autism a disability, I'm a living example of that. I was diagnosed on the spectrum when I was a young child and when I was six, my IQ was measured at 176 (Weschler, if my parents' memories were any indication). To be fair about the latter, I know that child IQ tests and adult IQ tests are calculated differently, plus that IQ tests are generally kinda nebulous in what they actually measure.
