Arnold Schwarzenegger | 132-135

We may love him for his The Terminator days, but did you know actor Arnold Schwarzenegger has an IQ score ranging from 132 to 135? His brilliance will likely come as a surprise to most people, maybe because of the accent or the stereotype associated with people who have muscles, but the fact that he’s a genius remains. Well, he came to the US penniless but managed to build an empire. He even graduated from the University of Wisconsin–Superior, completing a degree in business administration in 1980.

While the 74-year-old star has spent the majority of his career flexing his muscles, he has enjoyed great success in bodybuilding, acting, and public service over the past decades, which is pretty much proof of a very strong mind. Today, Schwarzenegger remains one of the world’s most famous actors. At one point, he was also named the highest-paid actor.
