A doctor steals Albert Einstein's brain and carts it around for 50 years, sure that it holds the key to genius.

When Einstein died, his body was sent for a routine autopsy. Dr. Thomas Harvey, chief pathologist at the Princeton Hospital, was assigned to the job. But before Harvey would pronounce the official cause of death, he cut out Einstein's brain and preserved it for future research.
