I love how they allowed him to process it and not be bossy about what to do. Its very overwhelming and lots of these videos they are screaming to leave them on and demand they look at things. Awesome guy with a great sense of humor

OMG I lost it when he started crying. Sweet man.

The little old lady next to him is so cute she has christmas bows stuck to her sweater

"It's not the color it's the thought." Class. Truly.

He starts off not very excited - names all the balloon colors as if it wasn't a big deal - then to my surprise, suddenly gets very emotional. I didn't expect that.

Its that the brain hasn't relayed the new information to the conscious part of the brain yet so he doesn't know what he is doing sort of speak. But when he did this the conscious part relays that information back to the not conscious part and is thus looped back and tells that part what he was able to do that he never had been able to before.

Give that man a hug already!

These videos always make me tear up! I often wonder how much of their emotion comes from the shock of seeing new colors or the sadness of realizing that they went all of those years not seeing the full spectrum before. What a nice man and I am so happy for him!

Colored blind people used to be the ones asking "what color is that...what color is this." After they get the glasses everyone else is asking the colored blind person "what color is that...what color is this." ..Total role reversal.

This is inspiring. It's amazing that everyone seems to have the same reaction. Young or old. What a gift.

Grandma just sits there like "wtf is going on?"

Can't imagine not being able to see color wonderful this product came in time for him.

A world changer! 😍😍😍 Hug him! Sweet.

This is the first family in all the Enchroma videos I watched that doesn't annoy me. They're not unnecessarily loud or pushy, they let the man adjust and enjoy and they don't constantly ask him if the glasses work or if they can try them on. Wonderful.

3:30-ish Merry Christmas Sir !! You have BLESSED GIFTS.

I think its interesting how they can name the colors, even though they have never seen them before.

+andreskizzo well it really just depends on what KIND of color blindness the person has. Like I just got done watching a video where the guy couldn't see red/green properly. It all just looked brown to him, till he tried the glasses. Then BAM! pink, red, purple. and all the various shades of green have meaning :P (but he never had a problem with blue, so it wasn't earth shattering to see the ocean or anything)

What a nice family.

I got emotional :) surely one of best christmas out there. Wish I could give something like that and see the reaction.

I cannot get over the emotional response people have from seeing colour.... I'm almost jealous because it seems they are just overwhelmed with joy, but I'm glad I can see colours. I have a slight duetan and am dying to look through a pair of these!

My favorite part of this video might be how polite the kids were and didn’t try to make the experience about them.

science is so amazing.

Oh, I'm so happy for him!

He didn't expect that one coming! :)

Omg im crying so much... we take things so much for granted... ill look everything differently now

GO DAWGS!!! Hope he gets to go to GA game such a beautiful place.

God bless him.

So methodical in opening the glasses...I'm like.. hurry up!!

made me tear up a little as well

Can't stop crying So happy for him ☺️☺️

So sweet...:-) thanks for sharing,,, I wonder how he was able to name them so easily ! ?

It made me tear up a bit when his tough exterior broke

woooow beautiful reaction!

camera"man" please give him a hug! I am crying!! ,D

THAT WOULD BE AMAZING. .INTERVIEW. .HELLO FROM CALIFORNIA

Finally a man that can open a box without whipping out a foot long machete!

So happy for him now get a Nice Orange Clemson shirt.

What a precious video

Lmao. Who bows all over grandma like that 😂😂😂.. Shes all like wtf tryin take them off

Aww bless give him a big hug from me ❤♣️

‘These are welding glasses from grandmas house’ He later says, when he looks outside, ‘what an ugly day’ as a joke. His guess was good when he saw certain colours for the first time: the pink, purple, the blue and the red and orange. The yellow seem to get mixed up with green. Everything is a learning experience. After watching some of these videos many people now understand just how blessed and fortunate we are to have healthy eyes to see the beauty than is in nature and all around us...

Now he can see the colors of the balloons perfectly. The numbers inside! From the colors he deserves a lot these glasses is nois sorry it gets in the way god bless you

😥😥🤣🤣🤣 I love that reaction!!!!

MAN THIS IS AMAZING IM GOING TO TRY AND GET MY DAD A PAIR

pretty simple. Your eyes have 3 types of "cones" that register the colors red, blue and green. You tell different shades of color and different pigments the same way, such as purple, orange, etc. Colorblind people have problems with certain cones especially the ones that see reds and greens. This is why many can still see blue fine, and yellow sometimes. So because many have problems seeing the reds and greens correctly, the glass's are made to split the lightwaves so that the red and green light is separated and can be seen easier with the weakened colorblind cones. Similar to how a prism works. If you just look at light you can't really see red, blue, etc but if you filter the light through a prism now suddenly you can see the colors. It's still the same light but just split so you can see it. The glass's split up the red and green light before it enters their eyes so their weakened cones can now see it and register it normally.

Well, you have to admit that it will be pretty-near impossible to top this Christmas gift. :-) But, why didn't someone get him a tissue, or a hankie?

I've watched several of these videos now, they're quite fascinating and heart-warming (thanks for uploading this one!). One thing I may never understand is when someone with the glasses points at a new-to-them colour and then says "That's red/purple/...". How do they know which formerly unseen colour is which? Sure, they must have heard the names all their lives, but they haven't perceived them yet, or have they? (I do understand that colourblind people can see some colours normally, just not all.)

AsEasyAs_1,10,11 I asked him that question! He said it’s because he’s always been able to see some colors, and just kind of used deductive reasoning to know the others since he knows pink is similar to red, yellow is similar to green, etc. That’s why he thought the lime green one was yellow!

"You never seen pink before, have you?" "Uh-uh." That's all it took. What a heartwarming video. And Go Dawgs!!!

This is very heartwarming and all, but man (some) Americans are so fucking rigid sometimes, give the man a hug when you see he is overwhelmed, and I'm not even considered to be warm or touchy enough in my country, pretty much the other way.

How do you know what color is what if you've never seen colors ?? He knew the balloon colors ?? Not picking or debating just curious ??

@ElSheaO

Жыл бұрын

We asked him that! So with his color blindness, he can see some colors. He can see blues and yellows, but reds and greens are very murky and usually just show up as muted shades of the colors he can see. But he’s had it for so long that he knows what colors are supposed to be what. So for example, he knows red is supposed to be super bright, and doesn’t look like what he sees as blue and yellow, and he knows that pink is a lighter shade of red. So it’s kind of a process of elimination.

love it

If you don't want to just see an old man open boxes, go straight to four minutes…😉

Actually, he hasn't worn them much I don't think. He wanted to get a different set and actually get the prescription ones (we got him the ones that fit over his glasses) but I don't think he ever got around to it. He was busy taking care of my Mamaw (the older lady in the video) and she passed a couple of weeks ago, so maybe he'll have time now.

How do they know what color is what color if they have never seen color before? Legit question. I mean you can say the grass is green. But when they first see that color on another object like a balloon. How do they know to say this is green??
