He's pretty damn smart. I remember seeing a TV documentary on that event in Russia, I seen black and white photos of the trees that were snapped off like toothpicks, all you would see for miles were trees laying down. I believe they said a comet did that.
See:
en.wikipedia.org
The Tunguska explosion felled an estimated 80 million trees over 2,150 square kilometers (830 sq mi)

I knew of a homeless guy in my city, a TV station interviewed him once, he use to be a geologist making very good money, but I believe it was alcohol that was his downfall.
