Extraordinary People – The boy who sees without eyes [2/5]

This is a documentary about a boy (Ben Underwood) who has taught himself to use echo location to navigate around the world. Ben Underwood is blind, but has managed to do some truly extraordinary feats.
I’ve cut this documentary up into 5 parts, and all can be found in my profile, or below.

I think this is kinda rare where a blind person is totally blind. Because most blind people have a bit of sight but it is really limited so they use the blind stick thingy to tap at stuff

OMG! what if, clicking were the way, the first man on earth used, to learn about the surroundings,
not just through sight, but through sound,..i dont know, i just think, this “miracle” is a sign, that it could be a long lost talent. of human evolution. which could somehow explain the clicking in the primitive or primordial feature of human language, once, human were more familiar with the surrounding, clicking was not needed anymore, therefore, its no longer used.
