There’s always a moment in your life when you come across something that just humbles you to the core.
For me, this was one of those moments.
Ben Underwood is a 14 year old boy who, due to serious eye cancer at age three, had his eyes surgically removed. For most people, life would have ended, but not for Ben Underwood. With his mother’s help and a perseverance beyond belief, he has taught himself to use echo location to navigate around the world.
By making a series of clicking sounds, he can use the echo to detect obstacles and move around in the real world. He goes to regular school, plays basketball, rollerskates and can even play video games.
See the videos for yourself.
