Meet Joseph Harris-Birtill: The Youngest Mensa Member at Two Years Old

At just two years old, Joseph Harris-Birtill from the UK has already accomplished what most children his age can only dream of. While others struggle with the basics of the alphabet, Joseph is reading full books and delving into complex subjects like Morse code and the Greek alphabet. His curiosity even extends to the periodic table of elements.

Recognizing their son’s exceptional abilities, parents Rose and David sought guidance from the British branch of Mensa, the renowned high-IQ organization. Not only did Mensa provide support and resources for Joseph, but they also welcomed him into their community, officially making him the youngest-ever member at just 2 years and 182 days old.

In 2023, Isla McNabb from Kentucky made headlines for joining Mensa at 2 years and 195 days, showcasing her intelligence in the 99th percentile.

To qualify for Mensa, individuals must either pass an IQ test or present evidence demonstrating they belong to the top 2 percent of the population in terms of intelligence. Joseph’s exceptional abilities were evident from a very young age, with milestones like rolling over at five weeks, speaking his first word at seven months, and reading his first book at one-and-three-quarter years.

While Joseph’s achievements are extraordinary, challenges may arise in navigating his educational journey. Rose and David are proactive in seeking guidance from Mensa to tailor their son’s educational and developmental needs.

True child prodigies like Joseph are rare, with a unique blend of genetic and environmental factors contributing to their exceptional abilities. Despite his early academic prowess, Joseph has a loving support system to nurture his talents as he continues to explore the depths of his remarkable mind.
