This was a really amazing experience I learned so much, not only about how blind people experience the world but about how I and all of us view so-called "disability" Thank you so much to Molly for doing this with me Definitely go check out her channel!

how does she manage to put make up on when she cant see? she's so pretty XD

Why does the blind person keep looking at the camera? Just wondering Its quite strange

Wait, do they actually see via ecolocation? Like they have an image made of sound??????? Whaaaaaaaaaat?
Comment from : VVhat if

A blind persons time perception would be different because sound travels much slower than light Think about it Time would be slower for them

That was an amazing video! I loved the insight… However, she did not appear to be blind in anyway, because she looked directly at everyone any time it was important And every single second

Amazing! I've heard of this before but this made it so much more tangible I'm practicing my clicks and acoustic imaging I loved his statement "I've conquered Man's fear of Darkness!"

I thought about that when I was on lsd and I went to other room I literally heard how acoustic changed when I stepped through the door

6:23 even though Molly is blind, she still uses the phrase "I have seen", thats kinda cool to me

I watched this video blindfolded with surround sound while riding a bike and broke my collarbone

This is also how sight works We see things because light waves from a source bounces off from an object Some of that bounced light waves would reach to our eyes and therefore detect that something is there We use what I would call "Passive Photolocation" because we rely external light for navigation We see colors and textures because the Sun emits white light, which carries every wavelength (color) Each color in the visible spectrum has a wavelength with red having the longest and violet having the shortest Some materials absorb or reflect a certain wavelength of light This means that a light emitted to an object will bounce off a color that it will not absorb An object that absorbs every color except red will look red An object that absorbs every color except green will appear green The absorbed wavelengths (colors) is now converted into heat hence this is why illuminated objects heat up Sound, however, is constant We hear wavelengths of sound by their pitches A lower pitch is longer wavelength and a higher pitch has shorter Sound cannot carry every wavelength at once and objects don't reject certain sound wavelengths So whatever pitch you make will echo back to you at the same pitch Thus echolocation would be "black and white"

Werner Herzog did a film called “In the land of Silence and Darkness” about people who were deaf and blind! Their reaction to cactus was equated to pepper

People that are very good at using active or passive echolocation are probably very good at marco polo

Next you need to learn how to hear with your eyes

This is how it looks to Empaths when two people who just don't vibe the same exact way interact Even player characters strike us as blind

Hmmm… That echo sound location started from a young man who had eye cancer He passed away years ago Give credit to the person who actually started it His name is Ben Underwood RIP

Surprisingly enlightening on the subject of neurotypicals It exasperates me to NO end that virtually everyone I meet seems blind, deaf, anosmic and borderline insensate, as if indifferent to the incessant barrage of data this world now comprises I understand inattentional blindness, but this showed the problem in a new light I will try to be more patient with them

This is easier the darker it is I experience this as vision We had eyes-closed practice in my martial arts classes and I could always tell where my opponent was with passive echolocation Normally, it is easy to tell where walls are, but I couldn't do it while movingbrWalls have a cushion of air around them that you can feel They actually described this in the Daredevil comics It probably comes from the viscosity of airbrI learned echolocation by keeping my eyes closed while showering I pretended I could see After a while, I could pick up the soap when it hit the floor without feeling aroundbrI don't use active echolocation much, but it does make it easier to "see"
