Watch A Colorblind Man Experience The World In Full Color For The First Time

“You won’t believe what happens next” videos don’t often drive me to tears, but I gotta admit, those cochlear implant videos managed to make me a bit misty-eyed. Ditto this great video featuring a colorblind man named Ethan Zachary Scott getting to see pinks, greens, and purples for the first time.

Ethan’s friends, being the sneaky buggers they are, picked him up a pair of EnChroma color filter glasses to correct his colorblindness. Without telling him. For his birthday. The result is Ethan wandering around the office and then outside, enjoying colors for the first time and swearing almost non-stop.

There’s just something magical about a man holding a tube of Lysol disinfecting wipes and whispering “What the f*ck?” over and over that will make your day. For more information on these cool colorblind correcting glasses, check out the EnChroma website.
