To me, he'll always be Chris Knight, a genius from Real Genius. He definitely wasn't a genius in real life though. He ignored a huge tumor for many months because of religious conviction before finally accepting reality and having surgery. He's lucky it didn't metastasize to the rest of his body. Looks like it came back to bite him in the ass anyway.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
