Have you ever wondered what it would be like to hear nothing but silence from the time you were born till the moment you passed on?
Or what it would be like to see the world and everything in it in black & white, with no ability to “see” color at all?
For various reasons, some folks are born completely deaf and others are born completely colorblind.
But thanks to modern technology many of those people are now able to experience the things they have been missing out on since the moment they made their entrance into the world.
This fantastic short video shows the reactions of several people at the moment they’re able to hear or see colors for the first time in their lives.
Of course not everyone who is unable to see or hear would want to change that after living many years without sight or hearing, but the video sure helped me understand just how much we tend to take some incredibly important things for granted.
Pretty awesome, right? So is this. (#ad)
