Yeah
Yep

We just saw everything tommy wished for years to see.
Danilo Rosich damn man, that realization hits deep...
Omg *head explosion* thats deep
Danilo Rosich +
bruh...
*ME ME BIG BOY*
I always feel extremely grateful watching his videos. Even though he's blind, he's still that happiest guy I know and I really love that.
Grace Platt its hard for him to be mad when he can't see the reality...
TheJoU50 I agree but there's also a lot of beautiful things he's missing out on too.
Many people in this world only view the bad things in life, and instantly call life absolutely terrible without actually looking at all the good and amazing things in the world. It is kind of sad really.
That main reason I watch this is to be happy with myself because he his .
who says blind people can be happy? Peopel associate "disability" with unhapiness. He was born blind, its his life.
I pray that science eventually gives this man the ability to see
@Yahawah is God I think that is the purpose of praying
That made me fall on the ground
TheRealJoshy (I posted my initial answer to the wrong comment.) Concerning your post, I got a little teary eyed when he was talking about all the things he'd like to see: the ocean, the sky, the earth...
Yahawah is God Nope. Science can as well. Science has done more than anything in this world.
Yahawah is God lmao good joke
I would be blind for a day if he could see for a day
Simply Gaming if all of his subscribers did this he could live the rest of his life with vision
^ just what I wanted to say :D
I'd give my life for him to have vision 😔
Simply Gaming what about for a month??
I'd go blind for a week so that he could see for an hour. Nobody is more deserving of sight then he is. Guy is pure.

True
I'd happily lend you my eyesight for a while if such a thing were possible buddy. The things we all take for granted.
I've heard a Russian surgeon, Muldashev successfully performed eye transplant over a decade ago. In addition, anyone can order eyes (and other organs) from death row prisoners. So it's not actually impossible for him to regain his eyesight.
So Tommy's condition is because of his eyes?
+Joe Maloney His eye condition is an underdeveloped optic nerve. Aka the nerve that connects the eyes to the brain. So no, it's not the eye. I think he also has cataracts but that can be removed.
Yes - I was implying that Esujin was making an assumption :)
I'd give it to him forever if I could die instantly
this video really makes you think of all the things you take for granted
for example ugly people
Molly Burke made a video or two on her channel on things that fascinate her about sight. I definitely recommend checking them out, they make you think of that stuff too
Everything he wanted to see, we just all saw in the span of this video.

@@maninwater5615RIP to all the lives lost at 9/11💔 God be with them and all the families, friends and loved ones✝️🙏🤍
I find his ability to conceptualize all of this stuff he's never seen fascinating. He talks about things as if he has seen them before
It even makes me think sometimes that all this *could* (but actually won't) be staged
It’s because he speaks the language he’s learned from people who can see. Language was created by people who can see and so we describe things that way. So when he uses that language it would sound as if he could see.
Agreed. He blows my mind.
It completely blows my mind as well
Well that's where the other four senses come in, along with every one in his life being sighted giving him the ideas to conceptualize.
This makes me appreciate being able to see things. Oh my, I take this shit for granted.

"You've fallen into the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down", damn that's my new favorite insult
luggi lu I was thinking that there aren't many ugly people, just as they're not too many truly beautiful people. Most people are just average looking.
@Cockstruction Worker damn bro you're beautiful compared to me.
luggi lu That’s an oldie but, goodie saying. Its still funny.
Chucky -
That’s the best insult ever
I honestly do wonder... if he was given the opportunity to see and the first thing he looked at were two pictures, one of a conventionally "ugly" person and one of a conventionally "beautiful" person, would he be able to tell which is which right away? Like is beauty a natural thing or is it something we are only socialized to discern? Food for thought...
Goooood question - blew my mind
He'd probably go "what the hell am I looking at" considering it would take him a long time for his brain to process what a person even IS, not to mention what colors and shapes and pictures are to his brain
So I'm gonna go with no, he wouldn't be able to tell lol
please watch the movie, At First Sight 1999. It will give you a new perspective. Or atleast^ research what the movie is all about.. then it's up to you if you would give it a go.. You wont regret if you try and watch it.. ;)
I will watch it, thanks for the recommendation!
Very young babies respond to beautiful people moreso than unatractive ones.

Child birth, I was not expecting that ! haha
I've seen it, something I wish I hadn't.
TheBaldr I haven't seen a childbirth but I've felt what it's like, midwife asked me if I wanted a mirror to look at the crowning... nooooo thank you lol
Cassie I think that was a wise decision lol
Nati, nein, man sagt das nicht so.
Tommy, as I understand it it looks worse than it sounds, you are not missing anything
Tommy is such a beautiful soul. He's so beautiful that there are more comments of kindness than hate on his videos. That never happens on TH-cam.
I wish I could like more lol
KiraNovember uhh no that doesn't always happen. Tommy's amazing tho
He has an expression on his face like he's constipated. That's beautiful?
My man said naked woman I wasn’t expecting that lmao
That's the best thing there is to see.
Nothing wrong with wanting to scope some puss
That's what I expected him to say first lol
Well he’s obviously had sex but has no clue the amazing anatomy of a woman. Truly one of the greatest sights
I can't even imagine not knowing how wonderful men look I'd just be so sad not knowing how beautiful their bodies are.
I cried a little because I was about to go blind because of an eye disease at age 17. I was already surrender. I knew I would go blind, but a few months before it happened I got a cornea transplant and doctors saved my eyesight.
Watching this video made me think so much. How my life would have been like. And what about everything that I would not have seen yet.
Dang. An eye transplant? I didn't even know that was a thing!
@Dimas Sajiwo so like... could an already blind person be transplanted a "working" eye in order to see? maybe?
@Dimas Sajiwo well that's really cool! :D
@@paragonpastry To be clear, when people talk about an eye transplant, they’re talking about a transplant of part(s) of the eye, usually the cornea. The whole eye can’t be transplanted since that would sever the optic nerve, which can’t be reconnected/repaired once cut (at least with current medicine)
@@cheyennemarie7075 ah.

Radio shows might have been better for him, when audio was the focus
This kind of makes me feel sad, I take so many things for granted.

same
I wish i could help him in some way
This makes me sad too. But I can't really blame myself for taking things for granted bacause I've been seeing them for a really long time. This man hasn't seen anything in his life
in a way it saddens me that we see everything he WANTS to see that he CANT see, and we are seeing it while he talks about not being able to see it.
matthew spaeth wow that’s deep

You should try to get your hands on the brainport vision device. It allows you to actually SEE with your tongue. I am not kidding. Very, very low resolution... but still!
/watch?v=xNkw28fz9u0
It is just very basic monochromatic vision I believe. A lot of videos about it, so it is not made up. The brain can translate any signal to vision if it understands how to. Just like people "echo-locating" actually activate parts of their occipital lobe while doing so (which is associated with sight). However, since the tongue has a very limited amount of sensors, the vision becomes very limited.

It's real. A blind guy climbed a mountain alone.
Just looked this up. Had NO idea it existed but this is so fucking cool! We should fund more stuff like this!!! I bet within 50 years we will have contact lenses that have cameras or sensors on them that would be able to do the same exact thing as the Brainport in order for the blind to see! Sp cool and exciting
LarryLynx That would be so awesome
LarryLynx YEEEES YES
when/if they invent a cure for blindness we all need to crowdfund for Tommy to get it! hopefully it becomes a possibility one day
Kathleen O'Donovan It's so sad seeing people with difficulties to live "normally". People with mental illnes, people with incapacities, people with deadly illness (terminal patients), people who died to young, people with economic trouble (poor). If there was an actual way of getting a magic wish, i would instantly use it for world peace and sanity in all ways. Or i would wish for more wishes...
What a beautiful words Cessare, I wish all the people think the same way you do
I heard human ears are now possible to be made/grown. So hey, anything is possible. It's pretty hard to imagine an actual biological eye being made though but it'd be the greatest thing ever since sliced bread.
A cure for blind people does exist.
They are getting very good at restoring hearing! They cannot cure all cases but they can cure a whole bunch of them! Sight is much more difficult to restore because of the mecanism of how the brain perceives an image and fill in everything to make depth perception and everything. It's much more complex, but science is evolving very fast! They already have devices that allow people with certain type of blindness to see, but it's use is quite limited.
You dont wannna see child birth
Benji Walker hahaha!!!!!

Mhm
He'd be like "gouge my eyes back out!"
Lol. It's not the prettiest sight. But it is incredible to see.
I really hope a surgery comes out and he is able to see and makes a video about him seeing everything he wished. That would be the most amazing thing of all time.
I imagine he would get the world's biggest headache
Yeah becuase of what psychologist call "brain plasticity" the brain developing without the ability to see will adapt accordingly and use the occipital (vision) centers for other functions leaving the original occipital lobe funtions either dead or no longer a vision center. So even if he did regain vision, at his age it's highly unlikely he would ever be able to use it like we do or on the level that we do
You know bionic eyes are real ?
He said he wouldn't want his sight.... In his newest podcast..
He could get an eye transplant
Hi Tommy, you said that you'd like to see someone beautiful and someone ugly. I was wondering, if when that happen, the ugly people was presented as the beautiful one and vice versa. Would you believe that?
Emanuel Santana interesting!
If he saw both he would be able to distinguish. However if he saw an ugly person first he would believe that they're beautiful because he has nothing to compare it to. That my take on it anyways..
How would he know?
Emanuel Santana everyone is beautiful
I don't think he would have the taste to tell beautiful or ugly, remember that he hasn't seen or visualized anything ever in his life. I think he would maybe guess if he saw the other but if he saw both at the same time I don't know, all he sees is just two humans
This video actually made me feel bad for Tommy 😥
He wouldn't want you to feel bad- he's loving life man
Well, that makes one of you...
It is somewhat sad that he doesn't get to experience these things, but he's such a positive and lovely man. Don't feel bad, sounds like he's living a very fulfilling life.
Damn he just made me appreciate being stuck in traffic
Lmfao, were you watching this in traffic?
Hearing this man get jitty just imagining things he could possibly see is the most heartwarming thing. I hope he’s able to see everything he’s ever wanted to one day
Who's cuttin onions again...

Awww... I know it's a stretch, but I hope in this guy's lifetime they'll be able to somehow cure his blindness. He's so positive despite his handicap.
Katie Greason we have invented it
Katie Greason stupid expensive butttttttt you can get sort of high tech glasses and wire them into your brain
Hes positive because he doesn't know he has a handicap. He was born blind, everything is normal to him.
Nathan McClure I would definitely contribute to a go fund me to get him some of those
I am not 100% sure but I think those glasses are for people who have a different kind of eye damage (for a lack of a better word) than him unfortunately
This man has never experienced cgi, I’ve never thought about how crazy that concept must be to blind people! This channel makes me realize how much I take for granted with sight

He understands the world really well but he can't see it, only has notions of it. Every single time I watch his videos I cry because I feel so lucky and grateful to have eyesight. It's truly wonderful to be able to see. God bless you Tommy, you are a great human being. I wish I could trade you my vision for your blindness at least for a day or 2

The Tommy Edison Experience Hello!
Of Course!
The Tommy Edison Experience Hey Tommy, describe what it's like for a blind person to have a nightmare.
have you ever seen/heard movies about blind people?
I would love to see you colab with another blind person (but not since birth) and see how they can describe sight to you
He's the kind of person that can make you feel sad and happy at the same time
Man this makes me feel especially bad for you.
The night sky really hit me as it is one of the most beautiful things i have seen once when i was in a camp and there was barely any light pollution. It was astonishing
Me too, I just realized that he’s never seen the beautiful sky, the sun sets or rises and the shapes and shades of the clouds, and the moon and stars at night. The sky is one of the most beautiful things we can see, and he can’t even touch or feel it to conceptualize it.
I see it every day i live in the woods its amazing how much i take it for granite
CGI is wonderful. It is imagination brought to life. You hear stories about things that don't exist, like aliens, or fairies, or magic spells, and CGI allows these stories to take real-life form. It's really cool! Also, some stuff you might want to see would be nature-based, snow falling all around you, waterfalls, fields of wheat or corn, mountain ranges, forests of evergreen trees, gardens, a herd of buffalo running across the plains, a flock of birds flying across the sky. Oh! And sunsets. They're amazing.
he can't visualize so he doesn't have a visual imagination.
This! I hope he reads it! He can't see these things in his mind anyways, since he doesn't know what they look like persay, but CGI allows stories to be made into movies, even the impossible things.

Hey, Tommy, is your "appetite for destruction" based off of all of these experiences you've had? Things that you know about, but only 3/4 of the information that sighted people have? If so, I can understand you would want to be able to FULLY comprehend that experience. Anyways, Keep on keeping on!

Dylan Peterson I was replying to OP, not you.
This makes me want to cry because the simplest things in life are so beautiful and to be able to see them is something I will never take for granted! Thanks Tommy!
Watching this made me cry. not in a bad way, or in pity. But simply the positivity radiating from this wonderful man moved me, reminding me of the little things i take for granted. Struggling with depression like i used to can make you hate the world around you, and yet this person cannot see all the suffering around him but wants to experience it with a new and fresh light. You're truly a wonderful man, and I'm glad the world gets to have your smile in it. I respect you, Tommy, with all my heart. Your positive ways remind me that life is about the little things, and teach me to slow down once in a while. Thank you, Tommy.
How about I go blind for a day and he gets his sight back for a day
- FardeenXD if 25% of his subs do that he would be able to see for the rest of his life
If every subscriber donates an hour of sight he would be able to see for the rest of his life.
At the current amount of subs, if 0.04% of them gave up a day of sight, he could have sight from day 1 to day ~28,000 (the average amount of days in a life)

Although Tommy does not have sight, he has something a lot of us don't. He has a wonderful personality, a contagious smile and the ability to bring thousands of people together by making insightful videos.
The things we take for granted. I'm a bit ashamed to be honest. I don't think people appreciate the little things.
It's impossible to constantly be in a state of awe and joy, no need to feel guilty about it. Similarly, it's not like Tommy is in a constant state of sadness and disappointment because he can't see, he's used to being blind like we are used to seeing.
He probably thinks racism is so dumb

Jordan Hughes that's sad because the problem is not his eyes, its his optical nerve. So it will not cure his vision by giving your eyes :(
That was quite interesting. It made me a bit sad and I must confess a bit ashamed. I think most of us sighted people take sight for granted. We don't always realize how much we have been given with the gift of sight. Thanks Tommy for your perspective on this topic.
When you're eating, do you ever worry about picking something up that isn't food and then putting it into your mouth?
It happens to me, who’s sighted. I could have a hard citrus seed in my food. But then I notice it once it’s in my mouth and spit it out. I’m sure it’s the same for him.
We really take our sight for granted sometimes. I’m so grateful
this video made me emotional, really makes you think about how much we take seeing for granted ✨
I noticed he laughs alot
these videos make me realise how we take being able to see for granted
Just listening to you say how much you’d like to see these things that I have seen and some that I see on a daily basis makes me realize that I take a lot for granted.
So is there not like some modern medicine or operation to regain the ability for Tommy to see?
From what i have read and heard in other videos, unfortunately no.
Is the visual cortex developed in his brain? If so, it's definitely possible and already is being done by the Orion I program.
TH-cam Account there are eye balls that you put in yourself and be able to see
TH-cam Account You can't regain what you were born not having.
He mentioned a couple times a surgery that could actually repair I believe it was his optic nerve that wasn't developed or something, it's been a long while since he brought it up. However, he didn't want to undergo that surgery, and the only reason I can remember is that it was just as likely as not to go wrong, and if it failed, it would make him permanently blind with no chance of fixing it. If my memory is right, and that's the case, then I don't see why he wouldn't undergo it since he has nothing to lose in the first place but the money it'd cost, but it's his choice, and probably the right one for reasons he has or may not have said.
One thing I always wondered is that since he is born blind, if the very first thing he saw was a physically attractive naked woman, would he be so weirded out or overwhelmed since everything (including colours) are new to him? Or does his natural instincts come into play and find her completely normal and attractive?
jesus...i'd give away everything to give tommy even a minute to see... such a genuine guy.
I legit cried. because we take granted for what we're able to see and this man hope of seeing for the first time is basically life. and it really makes you reflect on how grateful to be able to see life more beautifully. thank you Tommy for making this video. God bless your beautiful blind heart :')

I love watching Tommy. He makes me look at life another way and realize, I have nothing to bitch about. Tommy would be a friend I would love to have. He would be a true friend, he would like you for who you really are.
Of course.... "If I could see for a day, I'd look at porn."
Humans gon' be human.... XD
Porn is for very very very lonely people.
@@fathergabrielstokes4706 well, we all are lonely then

@@Kali-8 Why? What's the point? LMAO do you actually...you know...let it come out or is it just for the boner?
2:34 Wow, really didn't expect to find Pokemon Mystery Dungeon music here!
I was completely surprised as well!
It caught me off guard like "isn't that pokemon?"
Which one?
Just trying to watch a wholesome video and my PMD addiction just has to ambush me

The Tommy Edison Experience lol
What do you do all day if you can t see anything.... I couldn t even imagine that i can t see anything all day long every day...:-(
The Tommy Edison Experience can you see things around you
Demar Pasya No he can't that is the point, he is compleatly BLIND😂.
The Tommy Edison Experience I'm not entirely sure if you were looking for an answer to this but in order to put a 3d objects onto a piece of paper you need to first imagine how it would feel to be holding a hollow circle. now imagine that the circle is flatten as then or dinner then paper. that is a drawing of a circle. now imagine a arc somewhere in the center of the circle and the texture from it to the edge is gradually different. people who can see you would see it as a three dimensional objects if this is done correctly.
I really like this guy. His smile and his enthusiasm make me really happy
Respect to Tommy's virtual eye who described him about a night sky, it's so touching.
I'm surprised he didn't say a list of colors or something similar. That way later if someone calls something red or blue he'll actually know what those are
rararawr619 basicly he kinda did because he said a lot of things and those things all have color and they would show and tell him what the colors ate
Since his mom couldn't threaten him with "Stop doing that or you'll go blind", his teen years must've been an uphill battle lol.
I cannot fathom why'd someone would want to threaten someone over something like "that".
@Popo Dragen lol
