I don't think I could call autism a mental illness, but Derek Paravicini is a musical genius in spite of being blind and autistic. This is a really interesting documentary and worth a watch if you've nothing better to do.

Chris Martin - Delusions of grandeur (he actually believes his music is not a steaming pile of crap)

Varg Vikernes - Do I really need to explain why he's insane??
