Albert Einstein was one of the smartest guys the world has ever seen.

Since his death in 1955, scientists have been left scratching their heads trying to unlock the secrets of his genius.

Although he never took a test, some have guessed that his IQ clocked in at around 160,

a maximum score also achieved by Stephen Hawking.

For perspective, a genius score is thought to be

anything above 140, while the average score is between 90 and 110. Besides his smarts,

Einstein also had some pretty eccentric behaviors. From slurping down oodles of spaghetti

to sleeping for 10 hours and even chomping down grasshoppers,

here's what we can learn from Einstein's quirky habits.

You're listening. You're listening. You're listening.

You'd be amazed.

Einstein isn't the only genius in history to combine his cleverness with behaviors that the average person would call unusual.

Famed inventor Nikola Tesla swore by toe exercises and would repeatedly curl his toes up to 100 times for each foot every night

because he thought the practice boosted brain cells.

U.S. founding father Benjamin Franklin had a particular penchant for air baths.

For those of you like me who don't speak crazy genius,

that basically involved sitting naked in an armchair at his open window.

Apparently Franklin championed the belief that the common cold was caused by

being in close quarters with other German-infested people, rather than simply being exposed to

cold air. So he took frequent air baths to increase air circulation and avoid getting sick, obviously.

Meanwhile, Newton bragged about the powers of celibacy, Beethoven dunked his head in water before

composing, and don't even get me started on Pythagoras ban on beans.
