hey I'm red/green color blind
People who think you can't see color, or yell WHAT COLOR IS THIS! are so annoying. Knock it off.
what color BuzzFeed channel is this?!?!?!
Not JL A red as your blood. Which I will spill from your body. Kidding. It's blue.

Gabe Newell Yaaa! Deal. lol
it is funny because I am colorblind and I'm trying to watch a color-blind video
so... does that mean you saw the things in actual colour when we were seeing what it's like for you?
+A Wild Leonard see I can't answer that because even in video certain colors may be off to me because I have a mild photon color blindness where certain shades and shiny and dullness I see differently than most people.
Dan Whyte
oh, ok, so not to off from real colour then?
+A Wild Leonard yes I usually look at the code of the color to determine which type of that color is that.
Dan Whyte
interesting!
I WOULD LIKE TO APOLOGIZE TO MY COLOR BLIND FRIEND BECAUSE WHEN I WAS A CHILD I USED TO THINK THAT HE COULD ONLY SEE BLACK AND WHITE AND ASK HIM THE COLOR OF RANDOM STUFF!
Lol don't be sorry xD I'm color blind and I bet you that every color blind person has that happen to them at least once or more a day. It does for me xD
Lmao
Some people do see in greyscales
damn you people, i have to deal with that anytime anything colour related comes up in school.
I'm always tested by my class😅
I'm not even color blind and I always thought the man was green
It is in uk
It is. They see it white. At least I understood it this way.
+Anamaria Gheorghita No, in the US the hand is red and the man is white. But the colorblind guy thought the man was green
In Iceland the man is green and when there is supposed to be a red hand there is actually a red man
+Vigdís Zoega same here! I live in Finland, and also they are not next to each other it just switches from green to red
I am colour blind and people always say 'what colour is this' and they point to something that is clearly a certain colour, i then say the correct colour and they say 'you're not colour blind then' and i'm like >.
i know that feel bro
I mean, monochromatics exist, but I know most of you guys aren't monochromatics
Color*
+Nini1311 You're an idiot. Thats another variation of how to spell 'color'. Don't correct someone if you don't know what you're correcting on.
Color is American English, colour is British English. Good Day, Sir. *drinks tea*
I'm not color blind, but it annoys me when every body believes color blind people only see black and white, and when I tell them that thats not true, they are shocked.
Yeah being color blind I get that a lot.
You may be colourblind....But are you legally blind?!?!
Daniel Orefuwa
MOM I LOVE YOU
P.O.P HOLD IT DOWN
Well, technically most of them don't. But there is a rare color blindness where they only see in monochromatic colors
I'm color blind and that is so annoying
but the real question is.. do they see the dress white and gold or black and blue
dont. just, dont.
I'am a colorblind, I see black and blue and I think most colorblind will.
+Zaga it's originally black and blue it's just the lighting that gives the white/gold effect..... So if your colourblind your better at telling colours than a lot of non colourblind people..... I'm not colourblind but I saw black and blue and was so confused on how people saw it as white and gold
I see it as purple and orange-
you wont belive me but i see it blue and gold
Everytime I say that I am colorblind I ALWAYS get asked "What is this color?" Those 4 words are pretty annoying to me xD
Frihman Just tell them everything is black.
Frihman Same here, I get very annoyed as if I were an idiot, which is not.
Omfg same
+Frihman just say "what color is that? hmmm, maybe a color of "i don't care, so stop bothering me about it please.' "
+Frihman Amen

A weird experience: We were lost and we're handed a black and white map of the campus. Someone used a pink highlighter and drew the path to get to our destination. As we walked away, the color-blind person said "I wish they would had used a better marker; I can't even see the path."
Who would have guessed a highlighter would blend in. It must have looked light grey, or something. It was as bright as day to me.
Andre P I am colorblind (deutan) and I cam confirm pink looks grayish
Yeah for us deuteranopes, pink most the time is just grey
When I tell people I'm colorblind:
5 ah that's cool
95 "points at object" WHAT COLOR IS DIS
ᑕᕼOᑕOᒪᗩTE ᑕᕼIᑭ story of my ducking life
lol surprisngly i only get those question when i discovered that i was colorblind and i am then i jsut asked to other what color it is
Is dat GREEN??
_points at a pencil with "red" written on it_
*WHAT IS DIS*
What about this 👉🔴
I'm color blind too, deuteropia they say. The hardest thing of being a color blind is when doing Medical Checkup when applying for a JOB. Most companies in my country they dont accept color blind people, when they found out that I am a color blind, and then BAM. I lost the job opportunity because of the "color blind" things. It happen to me once, and later I figure it out to trick the color blind test when doing medical checkups.
But still, studying color blind test to trick it is not an easy thing, its super hard!
That really sucks, that's so unfair
+The Adorkable Bunch (Adelle Cole) i feel bad for you whats it like to be color blind
Donsi Saldana I'm not color blind lol
WicakSOUND It's okay boi, being different is special after all. Take good points out of it.
Is it less unfair if someone else lost the job due to a lack of a different trait that makes him less attractive for the employer, Miss Queen?
You know, everything that makes you able to compete when applying for a job is due to one or more traits and factors you don't control, which means it's always unfair for the ones who don't make the cut.
It really doesn't matter what the reason for not getting the job is, it's still equally unfair.
I wonder how colorblind people see the dress.
Im color blind and I see some kind of purple pink and like dark gold/yellow
Bob Riters im color blind and its mixed... i see blue/purple, black and gold... but if it was Green and yellow or Brown and green or red and orange or purple and blue, we'll give different confusing answers
Bob Riters I see green and gold.
Bob Riters i´m color blind and i see blue and dark gold
I see it as periwinkle and brown. Not colour blind but it's annoying as frick when people ask me what colour it is
There are many types of colour blindness.
Finally someone said it
my husband is red/green (especially) and i've got a tiny bit of blue/green insensitivity. i see many blues and greens, but if they're somewhat close (turquoise, teal, whatever) i can't always tell. and if i look at other colours my mom will say "it has a bit of blue in it" and i'll say "huh?"
milkweedsage i know exactly what your talking about, it's ether green or blue goddamn it.
When I see something that's grey I think it's green. So I had a "green" pair of shoes once😄
For me it's I get like blue and purple confused. Same with red and brown, green and yellow. But I tell people Im color blind and the first thing they say after is, "What color is this?! What color is that?!" I always get ticked every time so now I just say that to me friends I just met.
why am I trying to watch what it's like to be color blind when I am
because there are different kinds of color blindness
literally me right now
Same I just wanna know what other people think of it
GUYS THERE ARE GLASSES THAN LETS YOU SEE COLORS!
Helen Land wow xdd
I have a friend in school, 11th grade, and when he draws anything with color he usually gets the colors close but sometimes in a weird shade and then when I tell him the colors are a little bit off he just hits me with the "IM COLORBLIND".. Gets me every time..
LOL ROBERT
OMG CALLIE
I do that to my friends all the time.
Ironically this is buzzfeed-blue

+Dynamite1489 Yes it is..
Peanut butter is brown! Wow I thought it was green.
+John Dohn isn't chocolate black
Is it possible to explain a colour to someone. Like what if a blind guy says "what does purple look like" what could be said to explain it?
I ponder over this a lot. How would you describe a color though? I don't think you really can.
Color*
you cannot

Whenever I tell people I'm color blind they look at the nearest thing and say what color is that. Then I tell them and they're like you're not color blind, but I am. The struggle lol I'm sure other people can relate if you're color blind
I can't relate, but I did it to my friend when we were kids 😅 Sorry
Probably because when certain people hear the word 'colorblind', they think "Oh, they must see only black and white stuff!" I learned today that's not true.
dude thats me like yesterday

Roses are red
But you might think it's gray
Some people are colorblind
And that is perfectly ok.
😊👍🏼👍🏼
That's really nice. :)
underrated
Its more than just O.K. It might just be a superpower.
Colorblindness runs in my mother's family. My brother is red-green colorblind. One of my great uncles was a sniper in WW I because camouflage didn't really work on the colorblind back then.
Sociobiologists have hypothesized that we still have colorblindness in the human population because it gives a family group an advantage. If a few, but not all, of the members are not fooled by camouflage, they have a better chance of discovering (and hence avoiding being killed and eaten by) predators, without losing the advantages of having members with full color vision.
Buzzfeed, pls ask your colorblind staff to react to wearing ENCHROMA glasses for the first time!!
+Cami De Leon YES
+Cami De Leon I swear they're SO expensive though, but the fact that the Enchromea glasses exists is amazing omg I hope they do it
I wish they can but its like 300 - 600 dollars
+게윤 buzzfeed has the money
worth it for someone to be able to see colour don't you think?
I wonder what color they think the dress is
It looks black and blue with sunlight on it
Coming from someone who is colorblind
+Stephanie Ogbebor If you're talking about the blue and black/white and gold dress, I saw blue and brown (colourblind)
+MrRyangrrr yes it looks blue and brown to me too, I have a red/green color blindness
SilencerOftheHills Thought I was the only one who saw blue and brown lol
Lol I'm not colorblind but I see blue and brown
In one of my classes, the teacher always made you grade in green if you were grading your own work. This one time, he ran out of green pens, so he just brought out a box of random colored pencils and said just grab a green one. My colorblind friend was standing there for like five minutes just reading all of the labels and then went up to the teacher like Mr. Harmon, is this green? And the teacher was like do u not know ur colors?? The whole class was silent and then he was like.... Uh I'm colorblind....
Technically, nothing has color. Grass isn't green, the sky isn't blue. It's just the way our eyes interpret it. So in reality, the world around us is colorless. Well thats your depressing fact for today.
Exactly.
I knew that. Doesnt it have something to do with the sun reflecting of stuff or something like that? i dunno, our teacher mentioned a little bit of it and just stopped talking about it
MrBeastSpider Different types of matter absorb and reflect light. You see the reflected light. However, light also has no "color." Your eyes interpret the different wavelengths as color. However, if I were to delve into this a little more, it starts going to weird places. For example, you could reasonably argue that the "real" world is nothing more than..... nothing, and you just sense the energy in this world of nothing. But now I don't really want to talk about this anymore.
+Hobbit Fan gee, there's always this guy... thank you satan :((
wtf
You guys must hate Skittles.
The funniest thing about that is I love those and I'm color blind
Ckittlez What color skittle is your favorite?
Fact: All Skittles are the same flavor, you're mind tricks you into tasting it as something different.
Matthew Zufelt Proof?
Matthew Zufelt That's actually not true about skittles. They are flavored differently. But they do reuse colors.(For example, yellow as lemon...in the plain brand Skittles, is going to obviously taste different than the yellow in Skittles Tropical, which is pineapple...I think)
Getting color-blind people a Rubix Cube for Chrsitmas. ;)
they can still tell the difference between colors they can't see its not like everything is the same shade of grey
He is being mean to color blind people. Hope you are color blind and can never witness color again.
Got my cousin Brad a rubix cube. He's color blind. ;)
Nami Tsunamia You want a Rubix Cube?
That's mean.
Having these people say "it's not actually that big of a deal" is extremely comforting. I carry red-green colour blindness, so I have a 50/50 chance of passing it to my son. So this is very comforting to hear that my son will be able to live a normal life if he is colour blind :)
:D
Jumeaux Elaine hahaha that avatar suits you, Thane Krios is somehow colorblind as well :DD also what does it mean exactly, "red-green colour blindness" means you... how does this work, you see these two as the same color?
Jumeaux Elaine I have great news for you!!!! You cannot pass colorblindness to a son(assuming you are a man)! Because colorblindness is a sex linked genetic disorder, only females can pass it on to a son. You can however give the gene to your daugter who will be a carrier of colorblindness for her children.
Jumeaux Elaine Austin is right!! :)
Jumeaux Elaine I have trouble telling the difference between similar shades of colors, like purple and certain shades of blue I'll find myself struggling, thankfully for me it isn't that bad. They have glasses called EnChroma which actually fix colorblindness (regardless of what kind you have) and there are numerous reaction videos out there. Although the prescriptions are pricey at $349.95
0:30 is that connor franta's lost brother?
I see it
***** they just look alike :)

I feel bad for a person with colorblindness who accidentally eats a red apple? Red apples are disgusting.
***** damn.. I can't read or see anything clearly if it's farther than like 10 inches away so I *kind of* get it but that really sucks
Your reasoning for feeling bad for colourblindness is because you think red apples are disgusting? I feel bad for you bruh.
Steve Sunny Green all the way
Red apples are the shit
I love red apples .-.
I have a friend who's partly colorblind. He has an orange cat that he says looks green.
You sure he's not messing with you. I personally see similar colors.
Ckittlez I named my brown pet snake emerald because I thought she was green when I got her...
My cousin's friend has the colors Purple and Green switched. Every time he brings it up, I wonder what it feels like to walk outside, and smell the fresh purple grass.
tythorn13 you smell your grass?
R4V3-0N Of course.
I myself found out I was colorblind too. A few things I found out:
1. People will ask you what color something is and if it's not what you say it is, then you're wrong. Technically both parties are correct because the colorblind person is just seeing what they've always seen so it's not false to them.
2. Being called a liar or wrong when you're telling someone you see one number on those tests and they can't see it. I actually got a little frustrated on this and was able to show them what I was seeing via inversing the images color.
3. Having people worry about it and wanting some sort of fix to make it normal. While I can understand and appreciate that they care about that, to the person they've always seen the world like that. Personally I find it humorous that my vision is not considered "normal" when normal is subjective and varies from person to person anyway.
IMO I find it to be a blessing of sorts because I can see the world a different way than most, despite the shortcomings.
I loved this comment, so relatable!
I hate when people don't believe that I'm color blind
Shane Carlson ik they're annoying
Shane Carlson I know what you mean
What color did they see the dress?!
I'm blue yellow color blind and it was white/gold to me
No it's not it's black and blue
***** It is actually black and blue.
M1SSHANAN I saw grey and ugly muddy brown
M1SSHANAN If they saw a white and gold dresses, they will think its black and blue
I hate when people ask me "What color is this"
Yes i am colorblind
+1 so annoying, they always assume i see things black and white lol
+Random Things what color is my avatar?
._.
+Baitalon In my perspective, it's red and yellow. With a shade of dark green in the background.
+Maria Bejar You are correct
who else has wondered if for example my "blue" is your "pink" but we all can communicate about them the same because thats how we learned the names of them. or you can see other colors that i cannot se but i can see colors you can't see. my head hurts ;( ....
Thought about that a lot
Yeah I heard about this, like your red could look like my green and your blue could look like by yellow and stuff... I like my color scheme though so
Sorry blind people :-\
Vsauce
Oh my god you don't know how many times I've thought about that :O
Fun fact: There is a type of color blindness where people see no color at all, only black and white, called achromatopsia, but it's extremely rare.
DancingBagel I worked with a guy saw monochromatically. it was very interesting and he asked what color everything was.
rly? i thought If you are colour blind, you will always see black and white? no offence tho ;)
he don't need to put her money in the trash buyng a color tv..... only need the old one :D
DancingBagel My brother only sees black and white and diffrent shades of black and white, even though hes only colorblind on the left eye.. Its extremely rare beacus he can see all the other colors with his right eye. He is the only one in Sweden with that :D pretty cool actaully
For some reason i want that type of colorblindness or have it for a certain period of time just so i know what its like
I didn't know I was colorblind until I was in college and took an art history class. Everyone was finding the numbers in the colored dots, and I thought I could too. Then the professor announced what number people should've saw in each diagram. I remember her saying something about we should able to see a "24"(or 27 or 8, it's been a while! haha) and you should also see a "5". I searched for that damn 5 and never found it. I've known for a while I had the hardest time differentiating between oranges and reds, but for some reason I never associated it with colorblindness. Even that day when I mentioned it to the professor, she brushed me off saying "you're either completely colorblind or your not. There's no half colorblindness." Now with this video and in the comments, I'm learning that you can have different or partials forms. It's not an all or nothing condition and it makes me feel good knowing I'm not crazy!!
you can take an online test and it will tell the intensity of your colourblindess, try Chroma Colourblindess test
@@mikcnmvedmsfonoteka search Ishihara test
as an artist I paint and draw in different types of mediums. and it gets really frustrating when the instructions at school tell you that you're not using the right color or they question you why are you using that specific color in life drawing class. I cant see the color red so it affects every type of form of color i see . usually my paintings or drawings come out muted in color or i tend to use more cool colors. it's strange because I have a love and hate relationship with colors. sometimes I can see the colors, red is the color that gives me the most problem, sometimes it fades into something I can't distinguish it's like a void.
UniversalPotentate sure I'm what ever you want me to be
UniversalPotentate sure why not..
Exactly. I can SEE the colours, and that they are different from one another, but identifying them as this or that is really hard. Shades are next to impossible for me. green/grey, red / orange, yellow green blues purples.... forget it lol Im a strong duetran apparently, i get 5 out of 25 in those dot booklet tests
MrDBarch lol yes! I hate the test thingy. Was a horrible experience when i took those test, i thought that the doctor was needing around with me. Then i found out i was color blind back in 2011 and i just had started art school. My whole perspective in color change now every time i see red i wonder what it is that i can't see.
David Valentine
AHHHahahaha... perfect!
I have partial color blindness, in 2nd grade I colored I pumpkin lime green (that's what my friend said) but I saw orange. Screw mutations.
Also, I hate, Hate, HATE the people who keep asking "oh what color is this? What is this? What's This?" SHUUUUUT UUUUUUUUUUP!
Why were you coloring a orange pumpkin, orange?
It was a picture.
My friend told me. I said it in the original comment...
Maybe your friend was just a little slow in the brain
I dated a guy that was color blind and it took some getting used to on my part. I had to learn to stop asking him to hand me that red shirt and stuff like that. For him it didn't seem to bother him that much, he had his clothes labeled with what color they were so he would know if they matched which was a good idea. I didn't mind helping out when I could.
Whoa, what if colorblind people arenthe ones wuth normal vision and the rest of us don't see normal.
we can see more colours then them so we have normal vision
+Arjun Randhawa but what if the colours we see are made up
+Gabbie'show pikachu Yeah maybe aliens messed with out vision so we wouldn't find out about the illuminati because the illuminati owe the aliens alot for making 911 happen.
+Jerome Rich omg yess my aunt almost got on the plane that crashed but then a year later died of cancer
+Jerome Rich that is so accurate
So, I'm red-green colorblind and here's a discussion with me and a friend about colorblindness:
Friend: So you are colorblind?
Me: Yes...
F: So you see black and white, like dogs?
M: **facepalm**
F: So that's a yes?
M: No! Colorblind people see colors, but not all shades and we can't distinguish some colors! That doesn't mean we can't see colors at all.
F: Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhh. I understand. So you can't distinguish colors?
M: **mimics that he shoots himself**
So for the last time people, colorblind people can see colors, but can't distinguish some shades!
I hate being red green color blind
Ieuan Mills Yeah, whatever...
Ieuan Mills Nonono I wasn't thinking at the fact that you said that dogs don't see back and white, I was saying "whatever" because that friend of mine didn't know that dogs can't see just black and white. Sorry if it doesn't make any sense. I'm in a hurry.
And mainly I kinda don't care if dogs can see like us. Also, we doing know. We can't know how their brain receives the signal coming from their eyes. (I'm referring to the dogs)
So that means my red looks like green to you? How did you get diagnosed? I mean, if you learnt since you were a kid that grass is green, and it actually looks red to you, you would call everything you see as red green, and no one would notice that you see things different.
I'm colour blind and it's no big deal
You also don't know how to spell color.
NEAL No, it was spelled correctly both ways. Color and Colour are both correct. One is Canadian/British, and the other is American
In regards to the comment above, Americans will be Americans. I apologize on his behalf.
NEAL why you care?
NEAL actually its how you spell it the UK lolnwhy couldn't Americans be happy with the spellings and shit we gave you fucking dumbarses
"I doesn't really matter" ...unless you want to be a pilot, join the air force, do any job in the military that has to do with electronics, mechanics, and aviation, be an artist, electronic engineer etc.
Now this is going to blow you're minds!
What if people that a colour blind are actually seeing the right colours
People that aren't colour blind are seeing the wrong colours!
So these rare amount of people that are "colour blind" are actually seeing the true colours!
*Your *So this
objects do not actually have colors it is just the way your mind understands the energy in the object.
I don't think that can be true because there isn't one type of color (or colour depending on where you live) blindness.
Patpuc I'm color blind and no, i couldn't possibly be seeing "the right colors" because sometimes they CHANGE! IT'S LIKE oh so this is orange *moves head 20 degrees* guys it changed to green
Every individual sees colour differently, imagine some see blue as orange and call the orange blue and vice versa, we just name the colours such as pink but what if pink is completely a different colour to a lot of people but we all call it pink.
We`re all colourblind in a sense, because our eyes cant see ultraviolet light... Unlike some animals...
+Grim Reefer We can't see a lot of light... in fact, UV is not as violet as gamma rays.
+Grim Reefer If we could see that light our eyes would be subject to damage. Animals who can see ultraviolet light are all short lived compared to humans so it doesn't matter because they will die before they go blind anyways.
+Muhammad Al Kherim This doesn't really make sense... You get the radiation in your eye anyway and you dont get blind from it. If I assume your theory would be true then childreen would see Uv light and loose it with their age (like hearing high pitched sounds). But it has probably just no purpose for humans to see these colors.
John Dohn
How does it look like? :P
John Dohn
Was it scientifically proven that you can see this light spectrum? Otherwise I would say it's the internet, where everything you see must be true!
I took a colour blindness test, and it was like 'You aren't colourblind. Yay...' And then I took another one where you had to line up platlettes of colours from lightest to darkest and I failed the last one, which was purple. Coincidencentaly, purple is one of my favourite colours. ONE OF MY FAVORITE COLOURS WAS A LIE ALL THIS TIME!!!!!!!!
One thing that is crazy is that all the colors may look different to everyone and we will never know. We're just used to that one color is called something. Something green may look blue to some people but they are just used to that it is called green. AND WE WILL NEVER KNOW THAT!
The biggest thing that color blind people like me suffer from is people saying "Oh what color is my shirt?" and "so you're not really color blind"
I can't tell certain shade of blue and brown from black. My Father has a dog that I thought for years was pure black, and a couch I also swore was black. The dog is apparently brown, and the couch a blue.
I still don't know if they're screwing with me or not.

When i tell people I'm color blind they always ask what color my shirt is I get sooo mad or when you tell someone and they say you aren't oh man that makes me livid. Please everyone who does that stop.
What colour is the car in your picture?
I once saw a group of kids walk up to a blind girl at my school, held out a few fingers, and asked her how many they were holding up. My, what ignorant people.
I can relate to this. Once I was In a store with my friend, and I wanted to wear the same shirt as her. SO I got a pretty shirt of the rack, then another one. but it was placed on the other side of the rack, so I was like OK, it's a placement mistake. and I showed her she said that the one that I got first was lighter than the other. So I told her that I am colour blind, and she pointed to some Green shirt and was like, " so is this like, the same shade as this one?" and pointed to black shirt. I said " no, it's green and black." Then some totally random girl came up and said, " your like, SO not colour blind!" I wanted to scream! ( just to clarify, I wanted to scream at the fact that they didn't understand, AND that the girl was incredibly STUPID and insulted me, while snooping in MY conversation.)
SAMEEEEEEE
I'm color blind. I can't tell the difference between blue n green or darker colors like dark brown, black dark purple etc. It wasn't easy especially in high school when we had to use highlighters. I could never figure out blue from green.
same here
If you are color blind, Try on enchroma glasses. They are very helpful.
+Lillian Baker LOL ur comment is so ironic because ur profile pic is of a dog XD
I'm the same with dark blue and black

+Justin Timeless What is that?
+bloggi2 company enchroma created special glasses that correct colors for colorblind people
you guys should do a follow up of this episode and have them try those enchroma glasses!!
I'm also colorblind. And wow I'm so related WOW! EVERYTHING THEY SAID WAS RIGHT!
I always thought being color blind was just seeing everything in black in white, like a tv show before color cameras were a thing.
wait the walk dude is white i always assumed its was green as well
Godless Depends on where you live. Here in Sweden its green.
i live in the uk
Godless Pretty sure its green there too, google it tho to make sure.
huh so they are well thanks lol
Godless No problem. :)
have them try enchroma glasses!!
Well i am 12 and i'm color blind... In school last year it was the worst we had to do certain things with certain colors. When i ask my teacher if it was pink or purple she laughed and left... Well this year i was ready for anything. My mom bought me some colored pencils with the name of the colors on it ;)
My grandfather is color blind and I’ve always said “what color is that” I’ve noticed he’s always able to see black and white everytime no matter the situation. He always gets gray and pink mixed up sometimes he will say a gray shirt is gray sometimes he will say it’s pink. If a shirt has multiple colors on it it seem all the colors kind of blend together really strange and all diff colors
Please do one on what it's like to be deaf
We need a reaction video for them trying colour correction glasses
Make them try the color blind glasses
Being a colorblind female I am happy there is a video on this on BuzzFeed. The chances of a female being colorblind are 1/2% aka 1 in 200. I am only colorbling green red but it really changes your whole color wheel. When I first found out when I was in 5th grade, me and my brothers where only messing around so they pulled up tests and I could not do it. The next day at school I told my best friend and some people overheard and that spread fast. No one cared soon after. When I went to middle school only a few people knew, only a few friends of mine.
There are somethings I hate that people do all to often when they tell me or remember. They test me, I do not know if they are trying to see if I am lying or if they are curious but they test me and I don't like it.
When I called my mom to tell her that first day she first was confused then but after apologized to me for getting mad at me wearing non-matching clothes...
In the beginning where it showed the three circles with numbers in them, I only could see the number 12 in the second one. The others only looked like a bunch of dots :/
+North Wilkerson Then your partly colorblind
MakeItRayn Yes, I am Red-Green color blind :/
+North Wilkerson so what does Christians look like?
+North Wilkerson I MEAN CHRISTMAS NOT CHRISTIANS, DAMN AUTO CORRECT!
Samantha Santiago Lol, its just kinda plain really. Its just like 0:31 for me
Im color blind but I still like to paint and draw.
My toe is color blind
???
What colour does it see
+Hermione Rapunzel YOUR PROFILE PIC
i went through the first 19 years of my life not having a clue i was color blind- but the marine corps taught me i was severely red green colorblind- The point is- i hadn't a clue...I severely fail those number tests....
this is awesome I'm colour blind when I tell people they just point at stuff and go what colour is that lol
MAYBACH MUSIC OMG I know right!It gets really annoying when they keep doing it and they don't believe me.
In Australia the man crossing my the street is green
thanks. i was freaking out
I'm color blind, left handed, and an identical twin. I am weird.
you're awesome
Is your brother colorblind too? Just curiosity.
yes, my twin is colorblind, but right handed.
+When Birds Fly
Well, colourblindness is genetic, whereas handedness has a genetic aspect, but it can also change during your formation as a fetus and your life as an embryo.
While I can see colour just fine - fellow leftie!
Soon us lefties will take over the world >:)
When that girl said, "the dots, there's one with sailboat, but I never seen it" I felt so bad for her. I just wanna give her hug. But I also thought it was very funny.
Everyone who said the dress was white and gold is color blind.
Mia Duffy I saw white and gold, but it's nothing to do with colour blindness. It's the lighting in the room you see it in, watch ASAP science; they have a video on this, so you can understand how people see what colour they see on the dress.
Mia Duffy Dude I'm not colorblind and I saw the dress that way
Does no one understand that the op was joking
came her cuz of logan paul,still thinking how this works
Is the guy crossing the street sign actually white?
It depends on your area.
Pipsqueak Plays I was asking because I'm colorblind
+THEOTHERGUYNATION OK.
+THEOTHERGUYNATION The picture in this video for non-colorblind people is white.
Pipsqueak Plays Damn
In 7th grade I used to sit next to my colorblind classmate and whenever we have art activities he always ask me which color is which.
THE MAN IN THE WALKING LIGHT IS WHITE,WHITE!?!?!?!?!?!
IM JUST
SO. UGHS.DR
IM TRIGGERD
depends of where you live. In Sweden for example the man kosing the streat is green.
dafuq is kosing? lmao
+Pero Cigla krosing/crosing was what I was supposed to write.
maybe thats not the corect whay to spell it But, I Think you understand.
I'm Swedish and just 13 so my English isn't the best. ^-^
The Tea Cat okay xD and its crossing :D
The Tea Cat I'm Norwegian and only 12 years old but I can still write in fucking English
They should get the enchroma glasses. They correct colorblindness and it really becomes a different world
-.- I have a problem in my left eye which effects 1 in 20,000 people -.-
sure.
Yeah, sure you do
What's it called then?
***** It's just a prank bro
+John Ramirez saying yeah sure u do was a prank?
I have Monochromacy. I see in greys. Because if this, my eyes are sensitive to light. My vision is also impaired- im far sighted in one eye and near sighted in the other. the glasses only work for the most common form of CB and that is Red-Green/Blue-Purple. Because Monochromacy is not 100% accepted (but is close) among Eye Doctors, no steps have been taken in its research, and that really upsets me. I don't want to have to wear sun glasses so often, even indoors, because of a bright lamp.
my second cousin is color blind and one time he was at the beach and went to rent a jet ski and he ended up getting a hot pink one bc he thought it was red.
Why isn't the guy that says you can cross the street green?
Better than blind, right?
I feel so bad for them, but thank you for bringing this to people's attention.
I have synesthesia
So basically my world is made of colors
WAIT THE WALKING MAN IS WHITE?!?!?!??!
My mom told me my sweater was pink and black I said No it's black and pink!!!😝
what
Um-
Lol wut
If you guys don't get it my mom said it was pink and black so I said it the other way around black and pink
+XxDanaxX no its white and gold
These people express my thoughts quite literally and completely.
i might be going color blind,
the dot tests were always easy for me until last month i took the test again and i only passed the first one, which was normal with color blind people.
yet, i can see all colors like i normally should.
i dont know whats going on :I
Sebastian Bednarek you might just need glasses, as of that I'd recommend getting your eyes checked
i have glasses, but yeah i should probably make an appointment
Sebastian Bednarek color blindness is from genes, u can' t catch it u may just be tired those times or something like that :)
It could be the color settings on your screen changed.
+Sebastian Bednarek tired eyes?
BuzzFeedBlue? Don't you mean BuzzFeedOrange?
Wait, then how do they know how the colors they cant see look like?
+Chelsea Zou Well, imagine if every human being saw colors differently. When we are in school as kids, we see the colors and the teachers associate the color that we see with a name. So you can go through your whole life not knowing that you were color blind in the first place without being diagnosed
You don't. You just associate your "red" with another person's red, which may be your green or orange. I have that problem with orange and red. I just guess and just go with it's red and leave it at that.
+Mergan Freemern actually I could be... I always say stuff like, "this is red" and they'd be like no man that's orange, or if say "that's navy blue and green." And they'd be like are u serious it's purple. But Iv seen red and purple and green is my fav color.
+CuzEyeCan yeah I don't think I'm color blind but I'm always like, "THATS ORANGE!" And everyone else is like, "THATS RED!"
Samantha Santiago You should probably get tested for colorblindness.
I'm red-green colorblind and this is so accurate. I can't tell anyone I'm colorblind without them pointing to things and asking me "OMG what color is that?" it gets a little old after a while...
