Thanks for watching. Ben and I will be at Penguicon in Detroit this weekend so if you're in the area, please stop by to say hello.
Watch more blind challenges here: th-cam.com/video/ns27Z99psW8/w-d-xo.html
This is the content I signed up for!
Keep your eyes peeled, Tommy. The buildings in Detroit are about ready to collapse :P
But really be safe out there. Detroit isnt the best right now.
The Tommy Edison Experience could you review an app game? Its called "the blind legend". It's on IPhone and its pretty cool. It is sound-based.
The Tommy Edison Experience Hi Tom! AI am blind aswell!! :) I can see almost perfect but I have blur and nystagmus and other things! :) (I am Legally blind but still can see petty well!) Were almost like twins! :D
The Tommy Edison Experience how do you do things like scratch mosquito bites or pop pimples without harming yourself? I have tried to pop acne without a mirror but it always ends up a bloody mess. How do you avoid over scratching mosquito bites because if I'm not paying attention, I'll have a layer of skin gone. I'll look down at what I've been scratching and realized that it'll hurt later, but it didn't hurt when I was scratching it. Also, what's your concept of mirrors?
I could watch an entire episode of the 3D 2D drawings. Kudos to the person who thought of that.
fedos That and the Braille note were such thoughtful things to send.
I'd like to have similar 3d images, like a bird from the top view vs a shark or something. And explain to him the differences. I think that could be really fun!
someone do this please! I might even t something like this for him myself....
yeah that was so wonderfull. Lovely how he got a lot backwards tho but still got it right
That's exactly what I was thinking when he said he doesn't understand how u can draw 3d. Except I was thinking a cube would probably be the easiest thing to help him understand
I love that someone took the time to write a letter you could read yourself.
Lorange J I'm with you! What a sweet, incredible thing to do for someone. I love it!
and learning how to write braille on a braille machine too!
I feel like Ben deserves a big thank you for reading, editing,filming and being a nice guy in general. We appreciate everything u do Ben, hope you see this so you know ur work isn't unappreciated
Ben Churchill you're incredible!!!
booter12-4 i think tom offered 50% of the revenue from the videos. he seems like the type to do it willingly
Editing is everything
A blind man even roasted united. Now I've seen everything
But he hasn't
Kali Takumi lmao
The Goat Daaammn!!
Unlike him
The Goat Ever see an elephant fly?
Hi Tommy! It's Jillian! I'm so glad you liked my 3Doodled drawings! Sorry the shark and rose broke, but great job at guessing them!
That was a freekin great idea!
Just seeing this a year later, but just wanted to say what an incredibly brilliant idea that was. Hearing him say he didn't understand that concept, and you devised a way to "explain" it. You are an amazing human.
That was an excellent idea!
Amazing detail. Too bad the rose broke but it still looks great!
Wow guy what you made was brilliant and so nice. It's so nice of you to think of something like this. It's brilliant
I smiled so hard when tommy realized that was a hand. Like you could literally see the click of realization and amazement! Now he knows that's how things would "look" like on paper!! What a moment to be captured.
Candy4Bullets ikr. We take for granted being able to see 3 dimensional objects, and also 2d things like pictures, but to him it’s like showing a person who only sees 2d, 3d
Ha ha, "they don't have much, they're fish."
The braille letter was pretty,
Am I the only one admiring how fast he is reading?😱😱💕
ikr! Reading instantly, converting dots to words. Incredible.
well I mean he grew up his whole life doing this hahah but it's pretty cool to us sighted people
Jana ppf well he feels the braille and it registers in the exact same way as when we see letters. it's just a different type of reading.
blows my mind
yeah, his tremors give the impression that he would have trouble feeling small precise markings, but he read that letter so fast
Wow this was your best video ever. The 3D drawing part was awesome. You should buy a 3D pen
then maybe some kind of a 3D printer, that can print out his own drawings, so he could actually feel, what he has drawn
Jonas that is actually a good idea!
Jay Dow it's kinda cool since he can understand how things would look but miniature version
I'd recommend a glowforge actually. Since it scans what is put into it. Then he could laser engrave so that he can feel what it was. Also he could get some art cutout out with multiple layers that stack and he could feel the different layers.
This needs to be seen!
I love the fact that some fans have delivered stuff that Tommy himself couldn't imagine how they would look like using only his own mind. Like the 3D drawing on that paper, or the car/ airplane or even the shark.. I mean who can touch a shark on daily basis..? Make more of these :)
I agree but also disagree. The 3D drawing part was a pretty incredible idea and the braille note was very heartfelt but I also loved certain elements of the last one as well like the little sparkly peacock
Yeah tbf.. I watched the last one and realised that there were some very good ones aswell. Other than that, it's awesome to see fans sending stuff that we/Tommy have talked about. Like not knowing how certain object "look like" because they're to big and therefore he can't feel the entire thing.. so instead they send him 3D made objects like a car etc. which then helps him visualize how the object looks like, I love that so much :)
I love how he keeps saying "I've never seen this before..." haha
I may have to 3D print something and send to him. :D
Allan C-B that would be great! :D I wish I owned a 3D printer just so I could send him stuff too:p
Allan C-B
Still building mine, first thing I print I'll send. I already have access at a local makerspace, but I want to try mine :)
I go to Toronto Public Library's "Digital Innovation Hub" (www.torontopubliclibrary.ca/using-the-library/computer-services/innovation-spaces/) to do my 3D printing. It's very decently priced.
Yeah, I'd like to get myself one soon.
It'll probably be 2019 when I buy one or the chassis anyway.
Cool! The place I got to is hacdc, (www.hacdc.org) where the printers are actually free to use! I know now that you live literally no where near me, but if you ever come to DC, it's a really cool place with awesome people and resources. :)
My little brother sent that letter. My mom just sent me the video. I am not surprised that he would do such a nice and sincere thing. I am glad I found this channel as well. I am now subscribed. Much love!
Shelby Coker the Braille letter?
You can tell how happy that made him. That's so sweet!
Those 3D pen drawings were a brilliant idea! Kudos to Gillian for coming up with it.
Man... I got teary-eyed when he guessed the rose correctly. He sees things so differently than sighted people but he still recognizes visual beauty. What an amazing man. Cheers to whoever sent him the 3D doodles!
I love the way he laughed when Ben incredulously told him that fish don't have much in the terms of a face, so adorable. I guess that is the sort of thing we as sighted take for granted that everyone knows.
"And this is the part that'll RIP YOU APART."
"No, that's the tail."
XDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD
Congratulations on your half a million subscribers
Congrats Tommy!
Guesses plane and goes on saying "thank god its not a united airlines one" so good xD
What a great group of objects. I love the thought people put into some of them. The 3D doodles, & the guy learning braille. Even the little model of the plane (something that would be hard to get a sense of if blind). I like it as it's not like people are trying to trick him but share information with him. This was so cool.
Why did someone send a hdmi cable?
Not sure.. It's used to connect a pc or tv to a screen, but since he can't see and has no use for the screen then sending a hdmi cable seems kinda rude honestly
Aisha Graham I think they were curious if he could figure out what type of cable it was.
Aisha Graham seems more like a joke than being rude. like sending tommy a pair of glasses or binoculars xd
Tone Vistung HDMI can transmit audio too, so it's not entirely useless. And we know Tommy "watches" movies.
I wonder if it is because in one video Tommy says he hate a cable with a tape mark of some sort... so the sender sent a cable with cord to tie.. idk if it makes any sense
Serú Girán ❤ I love that album and Desarma y sangra is one of my favorite songs!
Do blind people understand mirrors?
good question
im guessing not at all
VenuxVilli
Almost certain he already answered this.
I haven't seen any videos of him talking about it, so i figured i would just ask
Paul S'more Do you happen to remember in what video he discussed this? Thanks in advance
i love seeing how genuinely happy he is when he figures out what he’s touching
HIS REACTION TO THE 3D DRAWINGS BLESS THE PERSON WHO DID THIS
"Thank goodness it's not a United one" the most savage line ever said 😂👌
Can anybody send him a tiny model of himself ? :)
Adam Děkan OMG, that is a great idea!!
There's actually a website that does that, like GI Joe action figures with your face. I bookmarked it on my old phone and don't have it anymore. But I found out about it from a "D.O.N.G." video here on youtube, you would have to search through their videos to find it.
_At least the ones I've heard of,_ you need to get 3D scanned. It's expensive, since between the 3D scanning and the good quality 3D printer, manual smoothening, and hand-painting, it takes a lot of resources to do well.
I don't know if it's a couple hundred or a couple thousand dollars, but either way it's really pricey.
Adam Děkan don't remember how much they charged for the one I'm talking about but it wasn't thousands. just remember it would require you to upload a front view picture and a side view of your face and they would work off of that, I'll see if I find that website.

0:42 "i have to open it to *see* whats inside"
Isnt this just a beautiful proof of how our perception of the concept of "seeing" is not just limited to the optical spectrum, but we consider that word to be a representation of aquiring knowledge and understanding of something as well.
What a beautiful man, who sheds light on the most unexpected things.
I think it would be awesome if you listened to a 3D audio illusion (binaural audio) in a video. there's a great one called "Virtual Barber Shop" It's MIND BLOWING. :D
Sharklops I just want to see how he would react to it, and that's the only way I know how.
I think another thing that could work even better, is Tommy trying a VR headset (ex. GearVR/Rift).
At first that might sound ridiculously absurd, however with the right application, he'd be able to experience truly 3D audio, which has been unavailable to everyone until VR headsets came along (even though it could have been done much earlier than the visual headsets).
That said, I'm not sure if there are any viable experiences that would showcase that effect well enough to be worth it.
There are other audio experiences that one can do though, such as *Papa Sangre,* an audio-only game that runs on Apple devices.
That was so satisfying to see you see those drawings! I remember how you said before that you didn't get how we can draw a 3D item and she showed you... So cool!
lol united airlines
I laughed way too hard at that
nice profile pic😉
phanofrhink ty
wtf I thought I deleted this comment because I thought it was stupid
They never get a break lol
'I've never SEEN anything like this before in my life'... 😂😂
Tommy is one of the most genuine people!
someone should make those 3d drawings but of the beach, i just saw one of his vids where he was describing the sun and the horizon and how perplexing it is so it would be cool to see some simplified drawings of large scale things like that which are the hardest for him to see without visualisation
Ra Canum like a tiny model of himself, as someone said in the comments
+ingrid ayarza i imagine himself is one of the things he can 'see' the clearest as everyone is always touching their face etc as it is, and he'll have had action figures etc. but im sure he'd still find it cool nonetheless i guess
You are the cutest, most inspirational person! You are so honest and open about everything... aaaand its very interesting to get to understand a blind person’s view of life. I am totally binge watching your videos and I don’t get tired. Love you Tommy... I wish you all the best in life!
I feel like the human brain is so trained to see faces in everything, even the most simplified version of them, so with things like the facial profile or the shark there wasn't a ton of detail needed for us to understand it, whereas tommy wouldn't think that you can just gloss over the most detailed part of the human body like that. Or at least that's my idea. I thought this was really cool.
"Apparently, I've never seen one of these.." lol
Dear Tommy have you ever tried playing with cornstarch and water paste?? If not i think that could be a great video :D
This would b so fun to watch ahahaha
Caroline Kildall Oh wow great idea!
Caroline Kildall What a waste of an opportunity to use the phrase oobleck and/or non-Newtonian fluid.
I love that you keep saying "I have never SEEN this before, cool !" or something like that. And its so strange that you understand how fish looks... Have you touched fishes from different angles that you could guess the shark ?? 😂
I like Tommy's interactions the simple drawings because they feel the same way they look. He can feel the line drawings the same way we can see them.
1:28 "well thank goodness it's not a united one"
I love how he drew pictures of his hand as a child and didn't even know it! 😂😂😂
“I never took note in class i was too busy sleeping” this man is funny 😂😂
I am amazed at how fast he guesses stuff, like he has a memory of how all the things feel like, even the things that he could not have felt (like the airplane) in their actual size, meaning, that he REMEMBERS how he once held an toy airplane in his hands , which is way less often then sighted people see airplanes...
I'm loving this channel. keep the positivity coming. see'ing you guessing and knowing things correctly makes me happy.
Tommy me and a friend were wondering, what is the equivalent of seeing is believing when your blind? Also your thoughts on seeing is believing. Love your content. it has shown me what to use my sight for.
Seeing those 3D doodled images really makes me want to get out and 3d print some things for Tommy to have. I was thinking I could send an object in full 3d, and then a few different views.
Pure.
Uplifting.
Wholesome.
"would you look at that"
... Shit I'm blind
"I've never seen one of these before" :D
"I've never seen anything like this before in my life"
"Ohhhh I see!"
Tommy's a fraud lol
Just look at it. Would you look at this?
haha he drops those types of jokes in all the time. Such a funny guy
I have a question, are papers with Braille marked in any way to indicate which way is the right side up? Or do you just start reading the text to figure out if it isn't upside down?
I guess looking for a sign would be longer than to just touch the written part of the paper, so it wouldn't be necessary.
He seems to read braille pretty fast, so i guess he can immediately feel if the letters are upside down/ unrecognizable.
You can just look for the side the letters are hugging, text is usually aligned to the left.
omg same haha
google images for "braille alphabet", and have a look at them, very few letters can be turned upside down to form new letters. R turns into W and vice versa (obviously), X remains X, T remains T, thats it really, probably Mr Louis Braille factored this in when creating/refining the system.
I can see and even I could barely tell that was a rose, you sir have an incredible ability to define objects just through touch!
This channel is incredibly fascinating. I was surprised to learn how intuitive human pattern recognition is. Tommy's ability to extrapolate 3D references from simple 2D representations of objects is astonishing.
8:22 i thought he was gonna say no fuckin way😂😂
Nick Kivi he says no fooling alot lol
Thumbs up for Wesley in Florida.
This really warms my heart! I think it's so awesome that there are people willing to make and send you things to explain concepts that only a sighted person could normally fathom, such as drawing a 3D object in 2D. There are some good people left in this world. I think it's so important that whenever possible we find ways to help you understand something from a sighted perspective while you teach us so much about your blind world and how you view and experience it! This is my favorite video so far!
That braille note and 3D pen art was just tops. Loved watching Tommy light up like that.
I always wondered how long it took for blind people to read Braille and you can read it really fast damn
I love how your so amazed by these! You made me smile :)
Jillian, that 3D doodle thing was BRILLIANT! How clever.
Jillian's mail-in was by FAR the BEST. WOW, so cool. I think Tommy actually SAW some stuff for the first time!!!!
This guy is awesome!
I'm from Argentina too, Catalina? Sos de Buenos Aires?
Tommy, absolutely love your videos, especially this series! You are such a genuine, funny, and kind person...this channel gives such a positive message and spreads awareness that hes is just like any other person you'd meet. I love how excited you get when you experience things in a new way. You are easiely one of my favorite people on this platform. Good on ya my friend
I had the absolute worst day coming into this video. And now i'm all smiles. Tommy's got that power. Love these videos where he's learning something new. Tommy You're awesome!
you make me so happy! thank you for making videos!☺
the 5 dislikes are from the people whose packages didn't get opened.
3:07 That "would you look at that" was almost perfectly synchronized with the music :D
Most delightful person to watch on youtube. You are just amazing thru and thru.
Catalina or what ever you name is, thank you for sending some fucking good music to Tommy. Like Seru giran, for real?!?! HellYeahhhh
And also would like to know what Tommy thinks of the music :)
It sorprise me a lot, i hope Tommy likes.
Do more 3D drawings videos
This is so sweet! I love how there are people who wish to share the world images to Tommy! The drawings made from a 3D pen made me happy that Tommy gets to know what the objects are like!
The part where he was at the back fin of the shark and said "this is the part that will rip you apart" cracked me up. Keep it up Tommy you're an inspiration to many! Keep up the good work!
People send more 3D drawings!!! Im sending 5 today!!
hello From Canada!
Your videos put a smile on my face for the whole day. Thank you very much tommy and Ben for putting these together
Those raised 2-D / 3-D drawings were excellent, i felt so happy for him discovering something completely new for the first time.
What do you think about outer space?
I wish I could find some sort of 3D figurines of a galaxies. Or a spiral galaxy could probably be conveyed pretty well with one of those 3D pens. Elliptical probably wouldn't be too interesting, and an irregular galaxy would probably just be confusing to feel lol
Que capo el que le mando el disco de seru giran!
@Pancho
Lo mismo me pasó.
As the son of a pilot, who grew up near airplanes all my life, and who is also sighted, it was such a shock when Tommy asked if planes are generally round or cylindrical. You never fail to open my eyes more and more to the little things about blindness I could never understand!
Love to see a guy so happy, regardless if he's blind or not. Your videos add a little bit extra brightness to my day!
when Tommy is holding something why does he start shaking? i'm really curious why bc my friend is blind and does the same thing
Im altso curious about this
Tremors I think
apparently I've never seen one of these before......(ever)
loved this so much tommy! and thanks to Ben for putting it all together for us to watch!
I love your laugh and smile. You have such an amazing attitude. Can't get enough of your videos! You and Ben make a great channel! Keep up the amazing work.
Why would you send a HDMI cable? lmao
That's what I thought too, but I think they just wanted him to guess which kind of cable it was..?
lol, my guess is that the person was being a bit of a smartass :p
An HDMI cable can transmit audio too SMH
DForum, yes it can, but you won't find to many strictly audio systems that use it, it's main use is for Visual, with the audio added in to make it a one cable solution.
EvilPlagueDoctor That's good then. If he has a blu-Ray or DVD player, he can just use the HDMI to connect it. He still uses a lot of things one would consider 'visual' like the fore mentioned products
I like Ben :)
The person who sent the "3D" drawings was really thoughtful - fun idea for a tactile gift! It blows my mind that someone who has never had vision might struggle with the concept of three-dimensional objects depicted in 2D. Great to see Tommy enjoy that.
I think it's really nice how you can basically 'see' what things look like by 3D pictures of them. I think this needs to be done more!
67 pound paper and he is picking it up with just a few fingers. Holy crap Tommy works out.
Ulyaoth74 6-7* pound paper
To the person who sent him an HDMI cable... why
i mean, its useful, kinda random but id appreciate it hahahha
@@DrFeelGoood yeah for sure, spending money on cables is one of the least enjoyable ways to spend money.
Just discovered this channel and wow i am so thankful. Tommy is such a role model!
I love that he still uses idioms like "I've not seen these before" and "would you look at that".
Man, it's like you haven't seen anything in your life
Well he really hasn't because he's blind since birth 😂😂
that's why the name of the channel is Tommy's EXPERIENCE. knowing things as it is being told won't feel the same as experiencing it first hand. for me, by understanding tommy's experince who already know so much stuff i didn't while having the capability to know things just by seeing it was really humbling.
Do you make the jokes and all up by yourself? Regardless if you do/not your hilarious.
Thank you Tommy for making your videos. You are a inspiration and you always brighten my day!!
I love that you are always smiling! Since you said you have a little light perception, the best way to describe it is bright. Love your vids!
Tommy, do you ever get déjà-vu?
Mister EMann he probably does just like us but it's obviously just not with sight
You are right, he answered that in a video!
pretty sure he did a video on this already
lmgtfy.com/?q=Do+blind+people+get+d%C3%A9j%C3%A0-vu%3F
Do blind people hurt them self if they poke themselves in the eye?
I would assume so, since the nerve endings that cause pain/feeling aren't related to the parts of the eye that impact sight.
Melissa Michael I guess so
Omg... you're a joy to watch... your family are lucky to have you in their lives.
Keep up the good work boys.
Oh my. It's impossible to go sad with that guy man. I really hope you never stop with the videos Tommy you're awesome
