Worst Things About Being Blind
1. Can't see.
HA! You actually said it in the video. lol
*yawns*
I laughed when he said that, I thought that was hilarious
I was watching this on my break at work and literally laughed out loud. Other people around me were looking at me a little strange.
No, the worst thing about being Blind is the SIGHTED. I am blind, brain, and I KNOW. I do Cross Fit and everything in total black, becoming blind made me a better man. I laugh and enjoy life to the best
I love Tommy's attitude on life.
Same, he doesn't let his blind state depress or upset him. He just rolls with it, and is able to joke about it.
I can't like this comment enough ^u^
And yet, feminists can't take a simple "woman-kitchen" joke.
Dude, your channel is awesome
Jackie Skillet they're funny when they upset people.
he's so happy it's inspiring.
Also sick Grant Green remix.
Pizaz0 he is he makes me look at my sight loss in a positive way would love to meet him in person but I live in UK little far to meet for coffee lol
Maybe you could skype/call if traveling isn't on your list? :)
Im a chloroplast
Just close your eyes then. It cures depression.
I bet Tommy has been on 10x more dates than I have.
GamingTaylor jokes on you 10x0=0
xX69CoolKid420Xx daaammmmmnn
I was beeping gonna say dat
Chloroplast
this chloroplasts are everywhere
He has been on more blind dates than me
These jokes are too good, he's probably reading off a script
So? Lol
hahah nice one.
+Spyroxs P I guess that one went over your head.
+Spyroxs P did you not get the joke?
Hahahahah! I laughed so hard to your comment :D
Holy crap this guy's pure happiness is contagious! :D
Im a chloroplast
Chloroplast ✔ are you sure about that?
More than covid 19.
@@chloroplast8611 mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell can you confirm
Gives blind date a whole new meaning lol
Hqhahah
Visually impaired date
I wish everyone could love life as much as tommy
*Inadvertently wishes blindness upon the entire human race*
Some of the happiest seeming people are actually dead inside and wishing someone would reach out and be there for them.
Laura Bourne I love how joyful he is
He Is Very Joyful!!😊😎
@@chilling_at_pontiff You wouldnt want to wish that......
Hey, don't worry, Tommy. I bump into stuff all the time, and I can see!
Me too :-)
Walls love to jump out in front of me. Damn walls.
Was just gonna say the exact same thing, sometimes you'll be looking directly at the thing and still bonk your head on it
#wetheclumsy
LOLOLOLOLOLOL SAME
"how about Tommy" make my day ! :D
Hahahha yes :-)
same
But does he play pinball.
This guy is amazing. Such an inspiration for life!
this dude is fucking great
I have kind of an interesting question, since you were blind from birth you have never seen anything in the world. I just wonder how that alters how you form memories and "see" things in your mind. Its interesting because we look at things and associate them with other things so when we aren't actively looking at them we can "imagine" them. It would be interesting to know how he "imagines" things.
i think over sound instead of image. or shape ... or both
I guess with all of the other senses, like when you can smell a certain perfume or mama's lasagne and it takes you back to when you were a kid :)
It's not that hard to imagine actually. Just close your eyes for 20 minutes and try to do some stuff, talk to your friend, take a shower, DO NOT open your eyes for entirety of that 20 minutes. And there you go, your own memory deprived of visual impressions.
@@IfYouMeetAWolf for a sec i thought that was gon be an enmien quoute
@@Mureirza Arms are sweaty, mom's spaghetti
I bump my leg on furniture all the time. haha.
I love your sense of humour so much - "The worst thing about being blind - I can't see".
I know. He is absolutely HILARIOUS!
In a world...Where everyone can see.....
i cant..😅😅😅😅
This man is the damn funniest!!! 'They don't know what to call me...how bout Tommy?' Hahaha love you and your channel!
DementorsKiss The worst thing about being blind is not having any friends to talk about experience with them or they treat you like crap
What I mean is you just yours lonely you can't be that hard to be friends with anyone and it's just it's a sad life we have to go around at the world will not stop for you and feel sorry for you even if you die I will still be well do you know the world
Each video I watch I have more and more respect. Such an amazing strong man.
Exactly the same here
Tommy, I love your sense of humor. That laugh you have is just infectious, and I start laughing along with you. Even if I'm in a bad mood. Thank you for that.
2:46 I find it really intriguing that even though you have no sight, or any concept of vision, you were still self-conscious about how you looked. That's interesting to me.
I swear I almost just subscribe to hear his laughter, I love it!!
Tommy cheers me up so much every time I watch his videos!
same :) Makes me smile!
Me too, he has such positive vibes!!
I really would love to hang out with tommy some time. He seems like a person I could become friends with :D
Same here, so sweet and friendly!
Pull up in your car and offer him a ride.
That getting into strangers' cars, and just having to trust strangers in general seems really risky.
But hey, you've never been murdered ;)
Seems even scarier though when you're young and a girl,
PoisonTheOgres Most violent crime like murder is mostly male on male.
ƐƖєgαηт OωƖ And most rape? Or 'just' sexual assault?
People with disabilities are victims of that very often. They are vulnerable. Doesn't even matter if you're male or female.
Kuba Garczynski lol I'm anti-feminism but Jesus dude calm down. You seem easily offended
Max Jacobs im easily offended? We're literally talkinf about feminists rn
Tommy Edison, I thank you. You bring so much light into the world.
I see what you've done hehe
This guys sense of humor really brings a smile to my face.
This dudes laugh always cheers me up lmao, love to hear it.
Tommy is so inspirational! He always smiles and has a nice sense of humor, even though he's blind.
i love it when he smiles , he's so kindhearted
Do a video where you explain how it is being black
Don't you mean blind?
Julianna Diamond no
HAHAHA too good :'D YES!

hahahhahaha

+TommyEdisonXP if your blind how did you type that????
+DaEpicGuy Braille keyboard
i don't think he controls the channel himself
+Abdullah Pervaiz of course he does he is a faker
I love your attitude dude, it's so refreshing in a world of shit.
Going on a blind date, lmfaoo
I love his laugh and how much he laughs at his own jokes. I also love the fact that his parents didn't miss out on the fact to name him Thomas Edison
His laugh gives me hope.
love this guy, always smiling and laughing. seems like a real kind guy
Your positivity inspires me, Tommy.
I just stumbled on your channel and I'm in love. You're so enjoyable to watch. I'm laughing with you. You have such a lovely spirit. You are such a genuine soul ❤️
how do you buy clothes and how do you match them to your looks? Do you have favourite colour or favourite hair color? i know one blind guy (simillar humour like you but younger) that said he wants to marry a blonde with blue eyes, funny he was born completely blind but he had such dream

+Your face, it's Silleh tommy is blind. i dont think hes the one replying. he has a friend editing his videos and replying .

+mohamed nur I'm going to say braille keyboard 🙄
What I love about you, is how amazingly positive you are! You are too funny and bring light into every video you make. Thanks for that Tommy!
thank you so much for making this series. curiousity is difficult to express when it comes to disabilities, but you are informing people candidly and with an amazing sense of humour. youre great
Tommy we just love your great attitude and inspirational spirit 🥰❤️! You’re the best.
Omg I love this guy Hahahahahah "u know hat the worst thing about being blind is, I can't see!"
Your personality and attitude use never fail to make me smile. You're an amazing human being, Tommy!! I wish more people were as incredible and positive as you...the world would be a better place
I really appreciate how you take it so lightly and you laugh through it. You're an amazing person, Tom.
Tom's humour is so awesome! :D
Tommy- when in doubt, wipe again! LMAo. You had me ROLLING!
Dude, I have been going through a rough time, and your just good natured attitude about everything has just been an beacon for me to stay sane. Thank you, man.
Tommy I just want to let you know that I look up to you. When I'm feeling stressed or sad about school or other events in my life, I come to these videos and it gives me light, just for someone to make such fun out of the kind of situation you are in really is just amazing.
The constant injuries must be like when you constantly are hitting your little toe on the furniture. Honestly? This sounds like hell to me.
I already love him, I just subscribed, I found him because he was in a Vsauce video
Which video?
I love your videos. When I grew up I had a grandmother that was blind. it was around the time between 6 and 9 years old, and It took me a while to BELIEVE or comprehend if you will that she couldn't see. I loved her much and miss her. Your stories bring back so many great memories of her. She had a great sense of humor, like you do. She just played the cards she was dealt....but popped up that Joker whenever possible. Love you Tommy.
Tommy, your positive outlook on life has brighten my days lately and for that I am forever grateful!
Have you ever been to one of those blind restaurants?
I love how Tommy always giggles to himself after he says a joke 😂❤️
Tommy you're an inspiration, I watch your videos every time I need to check my ego or get a fresh perspective on anything. I'm looking forward to listening to your podcast. You see the world more purely than most sighted people.
Watching one of Tommy's video always puts a smile onto my face. Thank you Tommy :)
love you Tommy
i think you are really interesting...
+Esmee Donders just in a fan-kind of way, not like... "marry"... and stuf...
i'm not blind and still get lost at every airport i go to:'D
It really makes me happy to see you smiling in all of your videos. You help me get some of my positivity back with that smile!
omg this guy is amazing! i just stumbled upon this channel and instantly fell in love. tommy's personality is just so genuine and real. +1 sub, tommy!
"Never know when to stop wiping, in the bathroom, you know" xD
Tickoman thats the real issue
Do you looking to your ass? To see if you’re clean or not?
Did you hear about the lady who purposefully blinded herself?
what?
no
Yeah, said she always wanted to be blind
Yeah , she did it by like putting drain cleaner in her eyes
JackThirdEye dang :(
Your positive outlook on life is inspiring! Thanks for sharing!
thank you for sharing your experience with us. I'm so glad that you seem to make the best of it and not let it drag you down.
Twist: The first cane he used was actually blue. And everybody lied to him!!!
Jack Kraken o shit the cane might say something mean and be pink purple😂
Jack Kraken 😥😂
Hey Tommy. next time instead of asking your date you could ask your server to guide you to the washroom. I feel like that would be less awkward hahaha.
It's funny you say that, I have recently done that and it is a ton less awkward. I wish Ihad thought of it sooner.
+TommyEdisonXP How do you reply? Or is it someone else replying?
He did a video about that actually.
Only discovered this channel yesterday, but am so glad I have. Tommy you're incredible!
Man. You have such a radiating personality, it's crazy. I found this channel on a whim of research and now can't stop watching. You're amazing, just felt the need to say it.
Is it hard for you to cook or cut up your food as a blind person?
.
Reminds me of Brian Reagan :P The stand up comedian.
You're so cheery and chipper and it makes me happy, thanks!
Thanks for sharing Tommy. Really and truly.
He's a beautiful person.
I love this guy's attitude :)
I know things, Remember? I love his attitude too. His positivity is infectious.
Also I’m having ASOTM flashbacks.
Tommy, how is it that even a video of you describing the worst parts of being blind makes me smile? You are one of a kind.
I seriously love you so much. how did you get your sense of humor? you could be a comedian. I smile through all of your videos. you smile so much and it's such a nice smile.
he looks and dresses better than some people who aren't blind
God I love this guy
truly inspiring..got tears in my eyes.thanks for sharing
Oh my gosh, your videos are just an overload of joy. I can honestly feel the good energy through the screen. :)
I want to meet this guy and just give him the biggest hug 😍 He's just such a nice genuine person 😀 xx
too bad he could never get to appreciate your finger nail art
Is blindness genetic, I'm just wondering because his nephew is blind too, and I was wondering if that was just a coincidence
Tommy's Blind Nephew - Crazy Coincidence th-cam.com/video/eE4ATO28FNE/w-d-xo.html
+TommyEdisonXP thank you!
+If you don't like it, cool it's what it is. What??
You can also become blind from injury, or nerve damage.
Some conditions are genetic. Go to a professional, dont ask here.
You're such a positive ray of light :) it's so nice to see someone so happy
I think it's amazing that you're so positive about this! Keep it up
No wonder you can't see, your eyes are closed!
Dirty Bong Water I know right
Dirty Bong Water Fuck atta here
his eye muscles have became so weak he finds it hard just to open them and even when he did open them on camera they had gray pupils just like a blind person
No shit sherlock
Dirty Bong Water ya why open them your now gonna see
How do blind people use mobile phones? Do you use an old one and count the beeps? I guess I could google it
Just looked in accessibility on my phone and there is a voice over lol
Love watching your videos, Tommy.
Tommy just makes me happy. i have chronic depression and anxiety but seeing his videos always makes me feel better. Tommy was born blind he's never seen anything. he missed out on life but he finds himself so happy. his smile and laugh fill me with hope and tell me that I can make it. thank you tommy, for everything you do
Would you ever get a bionic eye?
You know who's the most beautiful person on earth?
Read the the first word :) have a great day!
Iam blind can u just tell me
awwww, that was sweet :)
***** how would that be an insult?
***** oh :(
+JessaJay CONGRATS ON YOUR 5k subscribers! :)
i love this guys attitude on life. he is so happy and full of joy. it's really inspiring.
hi tommy - i NEVER leave youtube comments but your videos are amazing. thanks for sharing your life and views with us out here. i really enjoy your personality and how it shines through, you seem like a really cool guy. thanks, mary.
"In the bathroom, I never know when to stop wiping, you know...". Hilarious Tom, but use a videt to clean, and then paper only to dry. That's a lot more hygienic.
i think the actual worst thing is not being able to watch porn
You have such an enchanting personality. I don't have any blind friends or family... but these videos are just so insightful and I feel that they help me expand my understanding of the human experience. Thanks for making these videos, Tommy.
Tommy is hilarious. Always happy to see and watch your videos!
I like this guy he is good man:)
I wish I were blind so I don't see the atrocities of human kind . I'm sick of people.
Ignoring doesn't help.
Then I can make your wish comes true. Stare at the sun for about 10 minutes and presto dreams do come true. No more human atrocities just darkness. Congrats on now being blind because I bet the blind got that choice also
+Farmer Nate what a lovely thing to say! I bet your parents would be proud
I usually don't like going all 'sjw' on people's ass, but that's a very fucking insensitive thing to say. I can't speak for Tommy but I'm sure he wouldn't like to hear that kind of selfish shit.
idiot...
this guy is so freaking awesome. doing what he likes and entertaining his viewers. subbed and definetely waiting for more awesome videos
