As hard as it is to believe or even interpret, the following is, in fact, true:

$ i^i e^\frac{\pi}{2} = 1 $

You can probably already guess that this has to do with Euler's Formula. The fact can be proven if you understand the natural log of $ i $, something that also follows from Euler's. --John Mason
