the moment this wonderful child began to speak I got teary eyed.. such a beautiful soul and attitude he has. He is going to do such amazing things
that boy has a lot to teach to grown people.
bullshit
Much respect for the father.
Rest in peace, Sam Oldridge. You are an angel.
He was diagnosed aged 3 with Optic Glioma and an inoperable brain tumour which over a matter of months caused him to lose his vision. The poor child died in 2009 aged just 8.
Bruh I just got finished crying over Ben Underwood...
My god. This is so sad.
Jesus Christ. I did not expect this
Even if you're not blind and not clicking, if you close your eyes and listen CAREFULLY you'll notice that the air sounds different when you're close to things than when you're farther away.
Honestly this kid gives me so much hope, he’s so positive and he’s dedicated. I love it wish him nothing but the best.
What a sweet and adorable child. My heart is with him.
I wish you a long and happy life
Bit pointless typing it when he's blind...
lorenzo maes if we lived in a world that lacked software commonly used by the blind that converts text to speech, you'd be quite right!
He died from an aggresive glioma two years later :(
yes
"If you can't see,your other senses get better". Very true. When you lose one sense it heightens the others. He's a very bright child. 🙏✌️
“Extraordinary animals”
What an amazing young lad, good luck Sam in everything you do...
sorry mate... found this , really sad. www.samueloldridge-appeal.org/aboutsam0.html
@@snotrat2 what's that?
This is probably stating the obvious but I'd think this could be enhanced greatly with earpieces and an electronic ping -- also maybe could be taken out of the human auditory range -- might even work better that way, per bats. I'd think higher frequency would have finer resolution, which could then be reinterpreted via the earpieces into a well-articulated picture.
konchog3 but then you know not everyone can afford that
Great hypothesis!
konchog3 yesssssssssssssss yes yes you are on right vision and yess its possible you hit on the nose everything you just said happens to every one but just in different aspects all of the hearing vision through a vibration can send a picture and let's practice you can figure out what's that image is through a frequency brought back by Soundwaves wow u open a door
konchog3 If he’s been blind since birth, it won’t produce any “picture” at all...he would perceive it in some other way than what we do when we picture things in our head. people blind since birth dream in smells and sound and feeling. They have no idea what vision is even like. Trying to get blind people to understand vision is virtually impossible. He can *sense* distance...but he can’t picture anything. The method you’re describing is a great idea. One boy who did this, was able to “see” almost as good as someone with sight. His skill at echolocation was honed naturally. He rode a bicycle, played basketball, etc. Seems impossible, but he did it.
What i wanne know is what it looks like does he just time how long it takes him to hear the echo or does his brain do something?
It's the young daredevil
visi0nary EXACTLY!!!!
Daredevil doesn't click his tongue 🤦🏽♂️😂
@@chiystar1268 We know that.
What a wonderful cute little boy he is, this is astonishing! Anyhow, i hope he live a happy life.
What an Extraordinary Animal!
............
There are two types of people in this world
Garrett Sampson
You forgot attack helicopter
Best comment
he has such a positive attitude even though he's blind... what a legend!
He's a clicker
Ahh a The last of us reference. Nice
there was kid years ago called ben underwood his eyes got removed due to glaucoma as child, he could play basketball, ride a bike and even sit there on a gameboy and play games using echolocation and more was really amazing to watch
Rest in Peace Sam🕊️🙏🏻 wish God didn't have to take you back so soon! you were such an amazing little man. Hope God's taking care of u well! 💖
Don't let Stick get close to him or he will turn him into a blind ninja.
Extraordinary animals 😂
Humans are animals too
@@Mr.Nefarioussness Sorry, you freaking animal.
I have been blind since birth. I also echo-locate. Under no circumstances do I make a noise, unless it's my cane sweeping from side to side. I've learned to sense the air bouncing off buildings, vans, cars, or walls, as well as bus shelters, etc. I hear it with my ears. I can tell whether the object is solid or not. I do not need the aid of a click of the tongue. I think this way should be taught, rather than the click of the tongue method. It may be perceived as anti-social in the wider society, and viewed by sighted piers as strange.
Samantha Ash
Experience is truly the best teacher
Oh wait...if you are blind,how the hell you typed this huge comment?I guess someone help you right?
You don't think blind people have different aids to help them type?
Rishit Shetty r/woooosh
Samatha, please tell us about the source of the sound that you hear bounding off of objects. Is it basically just normal ambient sounds?
0:35 OMG THAT KID GOES TO HOGWARTS! (the tie :p )
We believe the visually impaired deserve certificates and diplomas they can read and understand. Made on thin wood, using a textured seal and Braille writing. This kid is a hero and he should have his awards be something he can read.
Thank God he is happy and hasn't lost any hope
You really have a positive attitude,even you are blind.
Even adults couldn't use echo location.That's amazing!
He could use a handheld high frequency beeper to decrease the interval between echos.
Rest in peace Sam and Daniel.
Great work Sam! Keep it up!
hes going to be daredevil!
He is handsome and his eyes are very beautiful
God bless this kid
You crazy people.
God heal this kid. But I don't think God can heal him....
If there is a God he shouldn't have blinded him in the first place
@@arianrashid5745 exactly. and he died too which makes this worse
such a cute little boy
Very impressive! Real inspiration!
damn they referring him as an animal
RIP.
i wish him nothing but success and happiness in life ... poor kid .. wish he could see the world .. then again glad he dont have to see alot of other cold stuff that goes around every day .. glad he's learning to live with it tho ....
Just give him a few more years, and the clicks would be more subtle, and his hand movements would become even more subtle. And he would develop extraordinary smell skills too.
Very remarkable development of his talents.
He looks like a Super Kid :)
:(
Is he really blind? His eyes look normal to me!
Mate his eyes are moving in different directions
blind people doesn't have to have gray eyes like toph.
Anybody watching this should absolutely look up Ben Underwood.
God rest his soul. He made incredible strides.
Same case as benjamin underwood had..rip ben..
An amazing kid
may our Father in heaven bless this guy
....wow...😮...thats incredible!!!😱
WOWWWWW!!!!! God really did think of everything! That’s incredible!
That"s legendary😯
Amazing! Mashallah!
Due to the dolphins
If we seen this video,some one who filmed it can read any comments to him,but i think the main point that it came from my hart
AMAZING
Very impressive.
It creeps me out every time the voice over guy says Milo!
RIP Ben Underwood, the original human echolocator
The title: Extraordinary ANIMALS
well, we are animals but I get the point xD Also I think the title is because the episode goes about dolphins but they decided to briefly talk about Sam and his echlocation skills
That is so cool,what a smart kid!
Where is the media coverage!!!? Why wouldn't this make mainstream and social media explode?? Did controllers put a stop to this?
He has sadly passed away now... Godspeed with you
It's wonderful that he's been learning to do this so young! Imagine his skills in a few years. I love his attitude!👍😎
That dog looks like my dog!
He´s probably a master by now.
He died the following year. gftkd.co.uk/samuel-oldridge-cup
@@gl2k43 Oh... Thank you for telling me, I hope is in peace, he look like a really sweet boy : (
He's so adorable but this is some amazing developments it's just fascinating though but I have a question do blind people prefer there eyes open or closed
I guess their eyelids adjust to the most relaxed position... Provided there are no irritants
well done boy
Im reading a book an immense world it makes me think can people learn from animals about senses
An interesting experiment would be to have this kid spend a lot of time with dolphins and whales and have him try to communicate with them.
Extraordinary boy.
There was a boy on the Oprah show that navigated life like this too. Unfortunately he died from cancer
Having been amazed at this I googled his name and found out rather heartbreakingly that the poor little chap died a few years ago.
You sure you're not confusing him to Ben Underwood?
Is Ben underwood spelled the same as Sam Oldridge? Because if not i am pretty sure i am not confused.
+snotrat2 Stop spreading rumors...
google it
snotrat2 I did...nothing says he's dead
they should just give him a clicker that makes a sound that echoes even better, that we he just has to press on it a couple times and he knows where everything is
Independence. He's a role model for any human beings.
Tiffany Zette Ben underwood is
Brilliant!
Amazing
Nice
how are you supposed to echolocate using your sight? 0:03
Remarkable
He’s like toph from ATLA
Image if he just screamed like the guy who played toph in the theater they watched in that one episode 😂
But how can he hear the echo of a click so well??
Wow wow🆓🆓🆓🆓 is what is a boy who is happy just being. Who he is. So happy he doesn't have to see this more destruction in this world
Read the title carefully
animals!!!!!!!!
Toph
Toph
SUPERP......
Where is Sam now? Sam in is samurai ninja hit man who wears a bad ass fold while slicing those who oppose justice
Where’s the “love” button?
whose milo
Who the hell had the heart to dislike this video. Please show ur face, I need to practice my punches...
Cute
noo
Daredevil
far from it
Mans from last of us 😂
daredevil Is that you
Is there any way at all to learn echolocation, and do you have to be blind?
human eyesight is good enough that we dont need such a thing as echo location,blind people body automaticly develop it because their body lose the sense used to see their surounding
So is he legally or profoundlt blink
What happened to the poor boy's teeth?
2:44 What is written there ?
Matyáš Feranec mcanisicx
Silat Merpati Putih has better program for blind people, we tech them to get vibravision ability. We are able to differentiate between the different energies and perceive the weight, volume, velocity, color, shape and substance of any object
// ANT // ya
// ANT // in indonesia we call it ilmu getaran, Merpati Putih branch in utah america call it "vibra vision", you can visit MP USA UA-cam Channel

Oh wow, praise God for this idea!! 🙏✝️
check out Ben underwood the echolocation king although he died young he will forever be a legend.
The sixth sense,echo location.
What is the name for the sixth sense? For example taste,touch,sight,smell and hearing.I just don't know what is the name for the sixth sense?
well he is using one of his 5 hearing, however as he said when one goes the others compensate his hearing is very attuned.
Oh I see.
not to impugn you just saying i love science and researching improved and new abilities.
+Offtrailed Dino There's loads, the traditional 5 are just the obvious ones:
Proprioception - you can sense your body's position without moving or looking.
Heat (don't have to touch, we can detect infrared through our skin)
Balance (arguably a specialist sense of touch)
Rotational inertia (arguably as above)
Acceleration (you can sense going into freefall without using any other standard sense)
etc etc...
Those are as incredible as telekinesis!
That clicking would annoy me after a short while.
The boy is BLIND, for God's sake, and you're worried about being a little annoyed by some clicking sounds? Get over yourself.
