No. Steven Hawking is an incredibly intelligent man who has made several important discoveries and theories in his lifetime. However, he is commonly portrayed in the media to be a genius of superhuman proportions, which is not so. He is indeed human. However, because of his disabilities, he has spent his life in pursuit of knowledge, forgoing life's physical aspects beyond the most basic of necessities. Because of this enhanced focus upon mental prowess, he has achieved more than most. This is similar to anybody who places their life focus on, say, pinball. Under most circumstances, this individual would eventually become better at pinball than any but those who have also dedicated vast amounts of time to pinball.
