Didn't this happen a couple of years ago & turn out to be BS? Or maybe I hit my head on my monitor & I'm imagining all this...

I don't really see how he could not only be given the knowledge to play like that, which is purely mental, but the physical abilities such as finger muscles, muscle memory, flexibility, etc. He said he played for 7 hours. How can you get that strength from just hitting your head?
I don't really know what to think.

I don't really know what to think. | Look at 5 year olds who are piano prodigy's. They technically don't have all the flexibility or strength yet that an adult might but they can still do it. A lot of is mental and the ability for your brain to tell your muscles how to react.
"Can I play the piano any more?"
"Of course you can!"
"Well I couldn't before!"

I just don't want him to start the "You see, theory is like a house..." thing  |

He ended up hitting his head and ONLY speaking fluently in the language for a 3-4 days, but then he woke up the fifth day and didn't remember.
