    There was a stroy a few years ago of a man who washed up on an English beach, with amnesia, and no identification etc. Can't find the story, but this is a similar one: http://www.metro.co.uk/news/814966-do-you-know-who-this-memory-loss-man-is

    This guy from a few years ago popped up a few weeks later in the news, as it was discovered that he could play some symphonies from memory on a piano...fascinating story I thought

    This is the chap you are looking for - the true version of events is rather different to the early version that the media went with.

    I made a post in AH about 2 years ago. I just checked back on it to find it too had died, and nobody missed it.

    Weird coincidence.
