0:50 He said “IVE SEEN THEM BEFORE” HE WAS LYING ABOUT BEING BLIND!!!!
ILLUMINATI CONFIRMED
ï am so damn happy Vsauce brought me here! I will never leave 😀 Love this
guy!
Damn, poor guy.
I was always terrified with possibility of being both blind and deaf. Just
imagine, the people deaf and blind live in a totally different “universe”.
They’ll never know how they look like, or know there are other people for
that matter. No music, reading, talking, watching, no knowledge of anything
whatsoever – entertainment is just out of reach. Unless they get high.
Now I’m also wondering about Tommy – there are videos here such as “blind
man sees for the first time” – can’t he get a surgery or is it in his case
not treatable?
I feel really bad for laughing but this is really funny. Although I really
respect this guy for putting himself out there and willingly putting this
kind of thing online for everyone to see.
He might be right handed he wasnt holding the marker steadilly
He’s holding the pen wrong?
He is super clever, happy and doesn’t care about being blind, i would be
the worst blind person ever lol
What if you are at a meeting or being in a crowd sitting and you get
sleepy, do you just take a little nap and noone will notice? ;)
You are great! But can you write? Like what do you think do letters look
like?
you know i’ve SEEN then before and we have them as pets…….
Your videos are a source of inspiration ! :)
You know what would be great? If someone took Tommy’s drawings and created
a file that could be printed on a 3d printer for him to touch.
would you sale this to me ?
one of the drawing or all of them
I love it! He’s actually got an abstract thing going on :D
The self portrait was kinda good for someone that has never visually
experienced it self.
I mean, even us whom are not blind (I suppose for the vast majority that
are reading this comment right now), if we close our eyes, try to draw our
self-portraits, and then open our eyes, I guess the result would be as
hilarious as his! Maybe less because we had the opportunity to see
ourselves multiple times during our life so it would be more accurate, but
still funny and interesting though.
Those pictures are actually good for someone who is blind! 🙂 I don’t mean
this in an offensive way. 🙂
So… yes, he can draw.
Can he draw well?
Thats up for speculation.
Love this guy’s humor.
i am very happy with this video. i don’t know what people expect tommy to
draw but i honestly think the pictures tommy drew are fantastic and
beautiful to say the least, they are abstract and figurative at the same
time; visual representations without visual context. i’ve recently began to
paint while blindfolded and i would really encourage him/you to try
non-figurative drawing or painting, perhaps finger painting since it’s more
interactive and physical than using a brush or pen. i am actually an art
student very interested in blindness and would love to talk to tommy (maybe
on the phone or skype) the moderator of this channel may message me for
more info
You’re channel is amazing so happy that v sause brought me here but i want
to ask a question there is an operation to make blind people see can it
work on you ?
They aren’t bad, like, you can see that he was drawing what he was drawing
what do blind people see?
This guy kinda reminds me of a little kid because he said “How could you
draw something 3d on something 2d and that sounds like something my little
cousin would say. Nothing bad with that but i think thats interesting how
different someones life is
He still draw’s better circle’s then me…
Now theres a cat I’m not sure anybody could love
it looks like a bald bearded dwarf head with big lips and nose
1:47
Great enthusiasm and sense of humor. He makes sight impairment seem pretty
cool if not even more intriguing. This is a great channel.
You are phenomenal! Great man! Have a good time!
2:09 – A side of a car…… …….the passenger side
That is the most beautiful cat I’ve ever seen.
Looks like a billy goat!
Man I love your videos!! You are just the funniest person ever!! I’m
literally alone right now and I can’t stop laughing with you while you
draw! I was impressed, especially with the car, and your own face.
Everything was in the right place, though you looked terrifying and that
was so funny! I wish I could sit down with you and ask you millions of
questions! Please don’t stop making videos!!! 😀 <3
Heartbreaking + inspiring
I can’t ask do blind people dream, because they do… Well I think, do
they? If so what is it like, what do they dream about? Life, things in
life, color, etc. what???
What if someone took a dump inside you?
I can hardly draw a stick figure
The cat’s tail was accurate! 🙂 And the legs were in the right place
still better at drawing than me
that looks like a Picasso painting
I love this guy.
I love his happiness.
Can blind people draw? The answer to that question is simply, no.
I used to have a blind friend he was blind when he was 7 and we used to
play and have fun we did pranks like water ballons and we used to have wars
with the little discs from connect 4 and he had the best aim ever
u make my day i swear. my mom went blind when i was 4 and she is always
down about her disability and i let her about you and she just starts
laughing! its a great thing to make people smile!
This is one of the most beautiful videos I have ever seen
The self portrait actually looks like some modern art lol
Better than most modern art.
Dude i love this guys personality he is so halarious
His car spells GO. vroom vroom
and I’m starting to think… can etching help blind people draw more
accurately? (not trying to suggest they should!)
Let him use a 3D pen?
