No, but i know somebody who went arround collecting on Purim, and challenged people to ask him any question on Moed, Nashim, Nezikin, Kodshim (Gemoro, Rashi, Tosfos), Harry Potter or Football. He earned a lot.
Another boy in my Yeshiva learnt Shas before his Bar Mitzvah – he started when he was eight (He wasn’t in school during the afternoons; he learnt with his father) and finished the entire Bavli and Yerushalmi for his Bar Mitzvah. He has a phenomonal memory and he can cite any omud in shas (Yerushalmi he doesn’t know by heart yet). He knows the Shakla VeTaria of the first half of Shas, and is continuing to memorize it. He knows the ???? of most things, and he knows the Rashis as well. We tried to catch him out a few times, but he is really very very good.
