There are alleged reports that he has achieved some of the highest scores ever recorded on IQ tests designed to measure exceptional intelligence.
He has also appeared in both a Domino's Pizza commercial as well as one for Burger King and sued the quiz show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire over an allegedly flawed question he missed as a contestant in 2000.
[16] After he graduated from high school and attended University of Colorado, Boulder on and off, where he was a member of the Phi Kappa Tau fraternity, Rosner appeared as a body builder in early choreography by Nancy Daw Kane.
[17][18][19] As an aspiring media figure, he placed a number of ads with titles about physics in the entertainment trade journal Variety while attending college.
[25][better source needed] No professionally designed and validated IQ test claims to distinguish test-takers at a one-in-a-million level of rarity of score.
A score of 160 corresponds to a rarity of about 1 person in 30,000 (leaving aside the issue of error of measurement common to all IQ tests), which falls short of the Mega Society's 1 in a million entry requirement.
[26] IQ scores above this level are dubious (pending additional research), as there are insufficient normative cases upon which to base a statistically justified rank-ordering.
Rosner's 2000 appearance on the quiz show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire led to a lawsuit over an allegedly flawed question he missed on the elevation of various country capitals.
As you may remember, the Official Rules for the competition, as well as the Contestant Release and Eligibility Form that you signed, provide that the decisions of the judges relating to all aspects of the game, including questions and answers, are final.
[34] Rosner's letter-writing campaign and attempts to get brought back on the show led to his being profiled in the Errol Morris series First Person.
