You Would Never Believe He Is Blind

written by John Chow on November 20th, 2006

I am simply amazed with Ben Underwood. Actually, amazing doesn’t even begin to describe this kid. Ben Underwood is completely blind, yet he can Rollerblade and play video games better than most kids I know. How does he do it? Ben uses sonic echoes to “see.” This is a truly fantastic story of overcoming one’s limitation. So many people make excuses on why they can’t do this or why they can’t do that. Well, try telling your excuses to Ben Underwood! Enjoy the video.

Now this kid beats us all…

Perseverance is the key… like a guy without arms who makes beautiful painting with his feet’s or Stephen Hawking who is paralized but one of most advanced minds on Earth — and he found time to have a love affair besides his wife!!!

This is amazing and shows how adaptable the human race is.

Does this mean he could become Dare Devil?

Lets be rational here for a second.
1) He is good, no doubt.
2) The TV producers were obviosly very interested in showing him like he can do anything
3) No way is he doing the radar stuff. It is impossible to do for a human, blind or not.
