I like this family. They let the man have his moment and don't make it about themselves. Even the kid is well behaved and not trying to steal the attention.
Yes Exactly! This family allowed him to enjoy the moment. So many videos soon as they put on the glasses you hear "Does it work? Can you see color? See what I did to make this happen?" Kids jumping around but not here. Love this family!❤❤❤❤
This is the best video I've seen for EnChroma. All the other videos there's people immediately screaming "what color is this? what color is this? what do you think this color is? NO it is green!!!!" Like, give them a second. This family is very respectful. Giving him time to process everything and explaining colors to him instead of testing him. Precious!
realtime36 True. If you go through life and miss all this, you only have yourself to blame. I don't know who could possibly take all we are able to see for granted, but I am sure there are plenty of them out there.
yeah but when you think about it, neither do we. Butterflies can see hundreds more colours than we can and there are hundreds more that even they can't see.
Im 38 years old, living east europe country, I paid for this glasses my two monthly wages, but the effect is priceless. Notice he needs a moment for a wow effect, this was the same for me. At first I thought ....well, nothing splecial, I expected more, maybe it is only suggestion, probably it doesn't work for me... But after some minutes. OMG! I CAN'T BELIVE THE WORLD LOOKED LIKE THAT ALL THE F... TIME! The color of the sky and human skin was the most shock for me :)
I've watched many of these type of videos, & I have to say, this is one of my favorites. Isn't it amazing what we all take for granted every day? Watching videos like this serves to remind me to look around, & to not take my surroundings for granted. I love the childlike sense of awe & wonder so often shown. It was so awesome of you all to get your Grandfather the perfect gift for him. You can really feel the love in your family. I teared up so much when he thanked you all. He seems like a good man. Thank you for sharing. :)
Well they can see colors but they are all kinda brownish, but also different shades, so they kinda learn what shade is what color. Maybe thats why he knew.
So beautiful to see his emotion. Our prior eras, the men were conditioned to be such tough guys and never show their emotion, it's absolutely terrible. Glad things are changing in that regard... I'd be swearing and crying at the same time if I saw colour for the first time after my 29 years, I can't even imagine 72 years....
I cried for him. The world is filled with colour and now he can see it. He's lucky, so many others worse than him can't afford or even know about these glasses.
I've watched several of this glasses videos and really loved the excitement and awe the young people expressed, but this...well, this was the most heartfelt I've experienced as he adjusted and then took in his familiar world through new eyes. Its easy to become weary and worn as the years weigh upon you. Its good for us old geezers to get a freshh kick in pants once in a while. This one had combat boots! Great job! I hope he had an incredible Autumn and Halloween with all the many shades of orange and a chance to see a Mardi Gras in all it's purple, green and yellow splendor! So happy for him and very proud of his family! Kudos!
There's a significant difference between seeing color and communicating the experience of seeing color. It's a significant chasm to cross. Well meaning bystanders who simply wish to participate in the newfound ability of the wearer are largely oblivious to the separation, unless they've gone through a similar experience with another sense or ability. It's like you can't talk about what you've never really known. And now that you are experiencing it, it will take some time for you to add the nuances of the experience to your vocabulary. Then you will be able to more fully communicate the experience of color. It's got to be similar to a baby who's senses experience the world for the first time, but they can't tell you anything about it. Nor do they have a personal framework of experience to compare it to in order to have developed a communicable opinion.
Most colorblind people do not actually see colors with these glasses, unfortunately, as in - they would still fail the colorblind test. They're, however, seeing more definition between the colors they've already known and could see before.
Please see our other family video at ua-cam.com/video/si2kgtfxzHU/v-deo.html so you can follow my sister in law as she overcomes her 3rd battle with cancer. 😀
using the same tech to develop these glasses, i wonder if we can create a pair of glasses that enhances the spectrums of normal eyesight, so that we can see how other animals see the world. the only issue would be, how would we know it if we saw it?
He would still be taught the colours, they would just look different to him. Maybe purple looked yellowish brown or something, but that's what everyone calls purple, so that's what he calls purple.
The colors he was familiar with all his life like on flowers, trees, etc, he would now see in real color. He would only guess at those colors compaired with other colors that look similar or the same. Being colorblind doesn't mean he can't see any colors at all. Only certain colors would look different.
Well, God allowed the glasses to be made! He's an amazing God, he created these colors and everything. Y'know, no man could ever think of another color. Its incredible, any other color is seemingly impossible until you witness it. Just like this old man, he never knew theses colors were possible. His mind can't even fathom it. But God can because he's a perfect God, and he created all these beautiful colors! It's astonishing. Then sin entered the world and we got all this crap like color blindness lol It is truly amazing though that we've advanced to making stuff like this. It's so beautiful seeing him experience what the good Lord has given us to experience
thats the result of sin which God came to rescue us from... but were so evil we push away God. How do we epect God to save us when everyone hates him so much, pushes away his love? To what extent do you want God to get rid of evil or bad things? We're evil cause weve lied before, stolen before, were sinners. God cant take away evil to the extent of cancer without punishing us ourselves for our sin. If God got rid of "bad" things like cancer, he would get rid of all bad things. Including us. but he alows us to love to choose to follow him.
If this kind of stuff doesn't get a person in the heart, they are not human. We should make presidential candidates watch it, and if they don't cry, they aren't worthy to serve this country.
Brought a tear to my eye. I love videos like this. I never take all the 'little' things in my life for granted because I know I am incredibly blessed for every gift I have. I try to teach my son to appreciate all the gifts he has. - Heidi
At first I was in awe of their reactions to purples and oranges, but the more of these I watch, the pure amazement of the greens of trees and grass is something to behold.... such a mundane color that we take for granted every day and they literally can’t take their eyes away from it.... kind of puts things in perspective.
A very good friend of mine is color blind. I have a large set of colored pencils, and when I asked him to pick the color of skin (we are both from European decent) he picked a split pea soup color. I understand that these glasses do not 100% correct color blindness, but at least they can help differentiate the colors colorblind people have trouble with, but non colorblind people can normally see. Watching these videos has given me a greater appreciation for how different the visual world is for colorblind vs normal sighted people. This touched my heart.
I loved your dad right along with you. You are so blessed as a family. His influence on the kids is immeasurable. What a tear jerker. Even tho the tears were of joy it's still difficult to witness. Love to him and your family.
ABJKLMRS Akagami Ali You would need to read the direction to find out. All i know is that the effect is supposedly better when you don't flip them at first.
The brain needs some time to adapt for the new color information. If you flip the glasses up and down, the brain is somehow confused and it will take longer for it to learn the new information. But it is understandable they do it, i mean they want to compare....
Woow...this turned my soul inside out ,crying like a baby you got me her... Amazing invention are theese glases...I just today discovered about their existance and allready surfing net,searching info...but this I was not expecting to find...very overhelming to see old man to se world with colours...life is ending and to discover you practicly have not seen it as it is,is quite sad...But at the same time so cool he finaly can se it...It made me think how we all dont see world as it is and only se part...cos we dont se in infrareds,ultraviolets and so on... Awww,Grandpa and familly..TY for this present to grandpa and for sharing all these emotions..I got to se way much more than just a first impresions of some product..Im still in bit of shock,but I feel this video have planted seed in my conciesness and after seeing this i will never be the same..Peace&Love4ever
Thank you Liga! We love that we can share it with the world here on UA-cam. We did not expect this reaction and I don't think he did either. Really took all of us, including him, by surprise.
These are the EnChroma glasses I guess. =). There really are no "true" colors of the world. We only see a small part of the EM spectrum as colors and different species see a different range of the spectrum. Colors are just labels created by the brain representing different wavelengths.
❤❤❤The song at the beginning made me cry, Amazing Grace, then grandpa made cry, then the "You Are Sunshine" song made me cry even more. Love this family!❤❤❤❤
Whoever put together this touching video did an excellent job of it. What a beautiful tribute showing the love this family has for this special man in their lives. I'm so glad Ashleigh and Michael were able to share this precious time with her grandfather and her family.
Shanoa that’s the comment that really got to me! Bless his sweet heart. He’s just taking every detail in and trying to process it all. Can’t tell you how much I enjoyed this moment with such a lovely family!
I fully expect that when I get to heaven, I will have this same reaction-- I was blind, but now I SEE!! I'm so happy for this gentleman that he received the gift of color while still in this life-- those glasses are amazing, for sure.
People that have had near death experience, say that colors in Heaven are the most vivid,bright, alive, I know that it's true,never had a near death experience, but colors always had a profound effect on me as if I could taste them or immerse in them,hard to explain, but my cat which I adore, does look around my head when she looks at me, I believe she can see my aura.
And a sunset on the beach for a month at least!! Florida’s are a blessing and every one is different and absolutely breathtaking. Never been anywhere else so ?
I've watched several of these and surprisingly they seem to be most enamored by the different shades of green rather than the bright colors one would expect.
The most surprising to me is that they now see definition (shapes) of leaves, flowers and so many see various skin color on their family members as well as eye colors.
Impressive that he know colors that he as never seen, like the brain instinctively knows but has never been able to process it before. "yap that's purple... I have never seen purple"
+Joan Vasquez you'd have to imagine that being colorblind isn't like seeing everything in neutral shades. you can see certian colors but reds/greens blend together into a bland single tone. my great uncle was blue/green color blind. he was an excellent ball turret gunner in the Pacific theater because the cammo of the Japanese ships didn't work on him. he saw everything the same color and it made seeing the outline of the ships easy. he said it's like seeing in different shades of grey. you just have been taught that certian shades of grey are supposed to be a color and you just learn to live that way. it's weird to think about it but that's how they live.
Those that can see all the colors are so used to everything that sorrounds them that they tend to forget the beauty thats is all around. Nature is beautiful!
Typical Grandpa, Holding in those tears as much as he could. Best fathers day gift i've ever gotten the pleasure of seeing! wonderful family. much love from NZ
It doesn't change the wavelengths hitting the eye, it actually just removes some of the muddying overlapping colors which make colorblind people unable to see vibrant/distinct color.
I like this family. They let the man have his moment and don't make it about themselves. Even the kid is well behaved and not trying to steal the attention.
yep, they raised the kid well. He's so well behaved ❤
That's exactly what I was thinking. A sweet family!
And all the questions are "What do you think..."
Yes Exactly! This family allowed him to enjoy the moment. So many videos soon as they put on the glasses you hear "Does it work? Can you see color? See what I did to make this happen?" Kids jumping around but not here. Love this family!❤❤❤❤
What a beautiful invention. This should be covered by health insurances.
DutchJake Agreed 😎
No that would be a brutal waste of tax dollars.
Your attitude sucks, not going to buy your rice any more!
I think we need birth control more.
DutchJake there’s no proof that they work, people still fail the color blind test after they use them for a while.
This is the best video I've seen for EnChroma. All the other videos there's people immediately screaming "what color is this? what color is this? what do you think this color is? NO it is green!!!!" Like, give them a second. This family is very respectful. Giving him time to process everything and explaining colors to him instead of testing him. Precious!
It's actually really sad to know so many people have died without experiencing the true beauty of the world.
Agreed.
thats true, but that is also true for people without colorblindness.
realtime36 True. If you go through life and miss all this, you only have yourself to blame. I don't know who could possibly take all we are able to see for granted, but I am sure there are plenty of them out there.
yeah but when you think about it, neither do we. Butterflies can see hundreds more colours than we can and there are hundreds more that even they can't see.
we can see about 10% of what there really is.
Im 38 years old, living east europe country, I paid for this glasses my two monthly wages, but the effect is priceless.
Notice he needs a moment for a wow effect, this was the same for me.
At first I thought ....well, nothing splecial, I expected more, maybe it is only suggestion, probably it doesn't work for me...
But after some minutes. OMG! I CAN'T BELIVE THE WORLD LOOKED LIKE THAT ALL THE F... TIME!
The color of the sky and human skin was the most shock for me :)
Thank you for commenting and telling about your experience. So happy for you that you were able to get the glasses as well. :)
That's Incredible man. It's crazy what us 'color normal' people take for granted.
😍🌺🌸💐🦋❤🌷🌺🌏🙏
You have a lovely family. What a nice gift to give...color
I've watched many of these type of videos, & I have to say, this is one of my favorites. Isn't it amazing what we all take for granted every day?

why are people so surprised if the person gets the wrong name for the wrong color, HES COLOR BLIND! Its all new to him.
Romans909 I was impressed with how many he got right
Well they can see colors but they are all kinda brownish, but also different shades, so they kinda learn what shade is what color. Maybe thats why he knew.
So beautiful to see his emotion. Our prior eras, the men were conditioned to be such tough guys and never show their emotion, it's absolutely terrible. Glad things are changing in that regard... I'd be swearing and crying at the same time if I saw colour for the first time after my 29 years, I can't even imagine 72 years....
He's gonna have a heart attack when he watches his first NASCAR race with those things on.
Steven Cramsie LOL
Lol.
I cried for him. The world is filled with colour and now he can see it. He's lucky, so many others worse than him can't afford or even know about these glasses.
thank you for sharing this. much love and enjoy your colors! ♡

Thank you for watching. Glad you enjoyed it. :)
"Never seen purple before."
Hope you can see it someday.
That's fucking hilarious because your profile picture is purple.
like 3 cans of soup I thought it was blue :(
I love this video! Beautiful family!!
Absolutely beautiful! The little story in the end was so precious x
May God keep blessing you and yours! You just started a whole new adventure!
Beautiful, just beautiful

Spot on. Thank you for this insightful comment.
Simply fantastic
So amazing!
10:57 What a hug! ♥️🔅
When he said, that’s purdy huh? That reminded me of my grandpa.
I want to give him a hug
YEAH, SCIENCE!
This is the amazing things humanity can achieve if we believe in science and try to stretch our boundaries.
had to cry, couldn't hold it 😂😭😇
Same!!
It would be funny if he said "what do you mean I'm not black"
He did! LOL We edited it out because of how sensitive a lot of people are about such things these days. LOL I cracked up when I saw your comment!
Most colorblind people do not actually see colors with these glasses, unfortunately, as in - they would still fail the colorblind test. They're, however, seeing more definition between the colors they've already known and could see before.
3:30 "Oh... the clouds..." :')
So colorblind people doesn’t see clouds as well? So happy for this man..
Where's the vid of him looking at some pictures/videos or in person of some hot rods with nice paint jobs?!
Great vid. 🌈❤🌈
im color blind :,( not too severe but wondering if other people see the world differently
He should watch a movie.
truley happy colorblind can be no more
And when the person passes on they will see even more colors which don't exist here and at a greater vibrancy.
what type of color blindness does he have
Red/Green
Anyone else check their phone at 1:09
Please see our other family video at ua-cam.com/video/si2kgtfxzHU/v-deo.html so you can follow my sister in law as she overcomes her 3rd battle with cancer. 😀
I'll keep her in my prayers.
Thank you so much!
using the same tech to develop these glasses, i wonder if we can create a pair of glasses that enhances the spectrums of normal eyesight, so that we can see how other animals see the world.
the only issue would be, how would we know it if we saw it?
How would he know the names of ANY colors if he's been color blind his whole life?
He would still be taught the colours, they would just look different to him. Maybe purple looked yellowish brown or something, but that's what everyone calls purple, so that's what he calls purple.

He would only guess at those colors compaired with other colors that look similar or the same. Being colorblind doesn't mean he can't see any colors at all. Only certain colors would look different.
They shouldn't be so specific with colors, all these ultraviolet and stuff, just say the basic colors.
oMMM jAAAAAAAAAA....
god bless these glasses.
*jk
'god' created colorblindness (one of many mistakes of evolution)
and man/science corrected it.
Well, God allowed the glasses to be made! He's an amazing God, he created these colors and everything.
Y'know, no man could ever think of another color. Its incredible, any other color is seemingly impossible until you witness it. Just like this old man, he never knew theses colors were possible.

Then sin entered the world and we got all this crap like color blindness lol
It is truly amazing though that we've advanced to making stuff like this. It's so beautiful seeing him experience what the good Lord has given us to experience
+Act29Productions Just like he Made 7 year olds die of cancer
Cis-white heterosexual male Yeah. And all the starving kids in Africa is because of God
thats the result of sin which God came to rescue us from... but were so evil we push away God. How do we epect God to save us when everyone hates him so much, pushes away his love?
To what extent do you want God to get rid of evil or bad things? We're evil cause weve lied before, stolen before, were sinners. God cant take away evil to the extent of cancer without punishing us ourselves for our sin. If God got rid of "bad" things like cancer, he would get rid of all bad things. Including us. but he alows us to love to choose to follow him.
So you're saying loving Christians can't possibly go homeless or starve?
Old people crying makes me wanna cry....
If this kind of stuff doesn't get a person in the heart, they are not human. We should make presidential candidates watch it, and if they don't cry, they aren't worthy to serve this country.
Here... borrow my hanky.
I'd cry if my disability check didn't come. yes, blind stroke survivors cry too.
"Is that brown?"
"No, that's kind of orangish blue mixed together."
You know what you get when you mix blue and orange paint? Brown.
Brown? No, it's ORANGISH-BLUE. Y'know, like REDDISH-GREEN or BLACKISH-YELLOW.
Ozzpot those are all shades of brown lol
Edit: That's probably the joke
TopOfAllWorlds lol, you got it! ;)
Believe it or not, I read those sentences the exact same time they're being said on the video. And I didn't mean it that way. Holy cow! Lol
thank you.
Brought a tear to my eye. I love videos like this. I never take all the 'little' things in my life for granted because I know I am incredibly blessed for every gift I have. I try to teach my son to appreciate all the gifts he has. - Heidi
Thank you for viewing Heidi and it is so true... the "little" things are really the big things.
Joan Vasquez Really was a wonderful gift and thank you for sharing. :)
He now can say: "Holy shit, grass on the other side is greener" :P
Ali Abakan now he will have lawn envy
At first I was in awe of their reactions to purples and oranges, but the more of these I watch, the pure amazement of the greens of trees and grass is something to behold.... such a mundane color that we take for granted every day and they literally can’t take their eyes away from it.... kind of puts things in perspective.
I think that the song 'It's a wonderful world' goes well with these moments.
Oh that would have been a great one!
JAJAJJJAJAJH HD UWIWGZIDHISJSJAJAJAJAJAJAJJAJDVIWI GV EOH EKCOHECLHCWHLXAOFXQTIQXTOQXOTXWTOXTW What a wonderful wooooorrrllld

Beautiful video. Thank you for sharing such a special moment with the world!
A very good friend of mine is color blind. I have a large set of colored pencils, and when I asked him to pick the color of skin (we are both from European decent) he picked a split pea soup color. I understand that these glasses do not 100% correct color blindness, but at least they can help differentiate the colors colorblind people have trouble with, but non colorblind people can normally see.

That was lovely, really happy for this gentleman :)
I'm not crying, you're crying !!
This really puts a meaning to "back in my day we didn't have color"
John Rust lulz
I loved your dad right along with you. You are so blessed as a family. His influence on the kids is immeasurable. What a tear jerker. Even tho the tears were of joy it's still difficult to witness. Love to him and your family.
Finally someone who didn't keep flipping them up and down!
Right?! That's the only important thing in the instructions!
wait why not
ABJKLMRS Akagami Ali
You would need to read the direction to find out. All i know is that the effect is supposedly better when you don't flip them at first.
The brain needs some time to adapt for the new color information. If you flip the glasses up and down, the brain is somehow confused and it will take longer for it to learn the new information. But it is understandable they do it, i mean they want to compare....
yea and besides he's 72 here he KNOWS the difference
The world is a beautiful place. Unfortunately we all too often take it for granted.
I loved the bonus reel at the end after the Johnny Cash slideshow.
Lucky Father. Smiling family surrounding him.
Surely, one of the most beautiful videos ive seen in youtube. No doubt about it. Regards from Spain.
Thank you!
how special thanks for sharing
Beautiful. ❤
that into made me cringe like 27 times over
I was not emotionally prepared to watch this. 😩❤️
Woow...this turned my soul inside out ,crying like a baby you got me her... Amazing invention are theese glases...I just today discovered about their existance and allready surfing net,searching info...but this I was not expecting to find...very overhelming to see old man to se world with colours...life is ending and to discover you practicly have not seen it as it is,is quite sad...But at the same time so cool he finaly can se it...It made me think how we all dont see world as it is and only se part...cos we dont se in infrareds,ultraviolets and so on... Awww,Grandpa and familly..TY for this present to grandpa and for sharing all these emotions..I got to se way much more than just a first impresions of some product..Im still in bit of shock,but I feel this video have planted seed in my conciesness and after seeing this i will never be the same..Peace&Love4ever
Thank you Liga! We love that we can share it with the world here on UA-cam. We did not expect this reaction and I don't think he did either. Really took all of us, including him, by surprise.

Mikael Murstam Wait until Heaven. We may see, hear and smell new colors, see sounds. The possibilities are endless.
I don't believe in heaven. There is no reason to.
It must take a good person to have such a nice family.
Super !! I want all colorblind people in the world can have so exlnt glasses, thank you for this video :):):)
❤❤❤The song at the beginning made me cry, Amazing Grace, then grandpa made cry, then the "You Are Sunshine" song made me cry even more. Love this family!❤❤❤❤
A wonderful piece of technology....an elderly man, seeing the World like a new born child...awesome.
Whoever put together this touching video did an excellent job of it. What a beautiful tribute showing the love this family has for this special man in their lives. I'm so glad Ashleigh and Michael were able to share this precious time with her grandfather and her family.
I don't know why this shows that Michael posted this as it was posted by his mother.
Thank you Michael's mom. ;) It was his son in law Bob who put it together. I am Bob's Wife (Jim's daughter)
" What a pear tree. " LOL
Shanoa that’s the comment that really got to me! Bless his sweet heart. He’s just taking every detail in and trying to process it all. Can’t tell you how much I enjoyed this moment with such a lovely family!
what I always thought of is they would have to rewatch all movies to fully enjoy them again!. I am glad they worked for you :)
What an amazing gift to give someone you love.... wow, just wow!
Thank you for sharing the experience with us!
It's really nice he got to experience true colours but it's also sad he's in his senior years and missed so much.
I fully expect that when I get to heaven, I will have this same reaction-- I was blind, but now I SEE!! I'm so happy for this gentleman that he received the gift of color while still in this life-- those glasses are amazing, for sure.
Exactly what I was thinking....streets of gold....The face of Jesus....WOW
People that have had near death experience, say that colors in Heaven are the most vivid,bright, alive, I know that it's true,never had a near death experience, but colors always had a profound effect on me as if I could taste them or immerse in them,hard to explain, but my cat which I adore, does look around my head when she looks at me, I believe she can see my aura.
Sorry but the wife is annoying AF
Leave the man alone for a second let him breathe woman! Let him live it’s not about you geez
And a sunset on the beach for a
month at least!! Florida’s are a blessing and every one is different and absolutely breathtaking. Never been anywhere else so ?
is it true to show him colours of the world? i mean he lived that way all the years, so he may feel disappoint and sad about it huh?
We actually thought about that and asked him if he wanted them before we got them. ;)
I've watched several of these and surprisingly they seem to be most enamored by the different shades of green rather than the bright colors one would expect.
The most surprising to me is that they now see definition (shapes) of leaves, flowers and so many see various skin color on their family members as well as eye colors.
what a beautiful soul this papa is i just want to huggle him xx god bless you all xx
Thank fuck for science.
Wow, trying very hard not to cry here.
Thanks for sharing.
Life changer! Does he have the inside ones, now? 😍😍
Impressive that he know colors that he as never seen, like the brain instinctively knows but has never been able to process it before. "yap that's purple... I have never seen purple"
Crazy isn't it. I guess just because he saw it a certain way and people had pointed out things that were those colors all his life.
+Joan Vasquez you'd have to imagine that being colorblind isn't like seeing everything in neutral shades. you can see certian colors but reds/greens blend together into a bland single tone.
my great uncle was blue/green color blind. he was an excellent ball turret gunner in the Pacific theater because the cammo of the Japanese ships didn't work on him. he saw everything the same color and it made seeing the outline of the ships easy. he said it's like seeing in different shades of grey. you just have been taught that certian shades of grey are supposed to be a color and you just learn to live that way. it's weird to think about it but that's how they live.
Thank you so much for sharing! What a wonderful gift & family.
I would like to see a video of his family wearing glasses that would show what he has seen for the past 70 years!
Would have loved if that was possible. Good thought!
