i don't believe you have synesthesia

[@thecornerkid402]

A grew up with a guy who had synesthesia and didn’t know it was weird. He’s a very talented musician and could pick out very complicated piano pieces by ear and we only found out he had it when he was in his twenties. “How do you go about picking out these pieces?” “I just match the colors.” “Colors?” “You know. The colors you see when you hear different notes………………… you don’t have that?” Turns out, every note would make him see a different color and his composing was partially painting. He couldn’t listen to overly complex music like symphonies while driving because he couldn’t see.

[@AHHHHHHHH.]

That's really cool, glad he figured out not to drive while listening to classical, but that's still really cool

[@aqilahhazirah5984]

That's so interesting

[@helsha]

That was actually very useful for me right now. Thank you! I have always found myself confused about synesthesia, because there aren’t many details described on the web. Like I never understood this “when you hear music you see colours”. Does that mean your friend actually sees these colours as hallucinations? How exactly then? Like shapes and spots flashing before his eyes? Or more like clouds of colours emitting from the source of the sound? And does it happen only with music? How does he see other sounds his car makes when he drives? As for me I have always struggled to tell if I have this condition or not. I’ve always just “known” exactly which sound is which colour and I have never actually physically seen them. I’m very bad at telling notes from each other, so I’m no genius, but to me all the sounds, musical instruments and human voices in particular, have their own colour ranges. Like for example guitar is a range of warm orange to warm yellow (from the lowest note to the highest) and piano is a range of deep dark blue to bright light turquoise. This actually helps me sometimes in my job as an animator and illustrator, when I for example have to make a cover for someone’s album or a clip to someone’s song. And I never even thought of this as something other than vivid imagination until my friend said she can’t tell which colour belongs to which sound at all. Tbh I still don’t know if it is synesthesia or not…

[@thecornerkid402]

@@helsha as I understand it, synesthesia exists on a spectrum. A pretty common manifestation is different letters or numbers make you think of a specific color. That sounds like yours only with sounds instead of letters. His is the rarest kind where one of his senses is triggered by stimuli from another sense. As he described it, his vision just gets colored. It doesn’t emanate from the source, it’s like his eyes are reacting to the music. For him it’s musical notes and each one manifests in a different color. It’s also worth mentioning that I’ve known this guy since he was four, he’s a legitimate musical genius, and he definitely has some screws loose.

[@helsha]

@@thecornerkid402 I see... Yeah, I think you are right about the spectrum. I was thinking about it and noticed that I have absolutely no associations with tastes or smells for example when it comes to sounds or colours. Which might be the proof that it's not only a vivid imagination of mine but also something else in the brain. Man, your friend is so cool!!! Thaks for your answer! ^^

[@ashleyremsing1262]

I know, right? As a synesthete myself, I was really glad that he showed a real synesthete and used the term "grapheme-color synesthesia," pointing out that there are different types. Most of the time, unless it's been a synesthete sharing their experiences, I've only ever encountered stuff that seems to treat it as *one* type, generally grapheme-color (which I mean, I get it cause it *is* the most common form people report experiencing).

[@vibaj16]

well actually they both have synesthesia

[@Skullhawk13]

@@ashleyremsing1262 one problem with accurate representation in media of this condition is that ((speaking as someone with an unrelated neurological condition so outside POV)) is a lot of the time I heard people not knowing it’s different. It’s not like we go out of our way to ask if people have symptoms, and so it’s possibly much more common than reported. I don’t know how to approach improving representation cause I’m not on the inside of the group but as an outsider I think education to help people figure this out could assist

My husband has this from a childhood (non cancerous) brain tumor. It’s so fun asking him what colors songs are, and sometimes it’s a pattern for him. So frickin interesting how the the brain works!

[@reklom2334]

I got the bad draw when it comes to synesthesia. I would feel super nauseous from seeing certain colors to the point I would feel weak and want to vomit. As I've gotten older, it doesn't happen that much anymore. I still brace myself when I see the color, but my body doesn't create those nauseous feelings anymore.

Hoodie Guy: finds out Bryler has dubstepesthesia Also Hoodie Guy: starts dissing Dennis for being skeptical

[@happgood]

Absolutely brilliant! So clever and expertly edited. Another winner...

[@adoomi_]

i feel bad for the guy who got hit by a red shell at 0:03

[@l.lawliet5896]

Broooo

[@metarunner514]

I JUST GOT A BETTER HELP AD WITH DANIEL IN IT! THATS BLOODY AWESOME

[@themanupdtairs]

Mastery. Panning the introductory audio. Fantastic attention to detail.

[@confusedperson21]

When someone tries to fake something but does it horribly

[@mschf4497]

You ever think that Daniel comes up with these at random places and just yells "Eureka" or something like that?

[@joyfulstone]

1:35 that is adorable

[@theundeadpancake9869]

I have synesthesia! I can taste colors, and often the brighter the more flavorful. Often times they're candy or fruit flavored too. Its affected my art too, i like picking bright colors because of the TASTE. A lot of people compliment my art on how bright it is and most of what I can say is, i just liked how it tasted. (Dont get me started on color combos, that stuff's WILD) Think its really cool that theres different types

[@Geekster1984]

what does like, the mona lisa taste like with all the desaturated browns?

[@fnaf351]

Interesting. If you read this, could you please answer the question in the comment above?

[@theundeadpancake9869]

​@@Geekster1984 It doesn't taste like anything cuz I've seen it so often. Some things don't have a taste, like how you don't see your nose despite it being right there. It just tunes out

[@2iLikeCats2]

This takes "taste the rainbow" to a whole new level

[@DawnyXO_]

“What do you see when you hear seven?” Me, no diagnosis: “P E R I W I N K L E”

[@thegr8hatty]

The cats really pulled the whole video together

[@neco5740]

I love how even he couldn't stay serious at 1:10

[@RobotModelNBEEPBOPBOOP]

As a person with synesthesia, beanie guy definitely has synesthesia

[@jajlegend]

I also genuinely have grapheme-colour synaesthesia, this is an awesome video bro!

[@kingofhearts69]

Anyone notice how at 2:34 he just describes the marvel character ghost rider? The flaming skull and motorcycle

[@axolotl_aristotle]

I absolutely love Daniel's attention to detail. Like I knew the guy was telling the truth at 1:50 when he said don't sneeze while I'm talking Dennis because he actually heard a sneeze when synesthesia was said and you can tell that from the fact that he said bless you when Dennis said synesthesia in 1:25

[@auralynn3862]

I just took it as a jab at how overcomplicated the word is (and the way it sounds)

[@sarahberkner]

Yeah that was the joke, not too complicated.

[@rascaljoy]

1:57 Hehe, saw his eye. 😂

[@bewtnewt]

what

[@benguthrie9827]

Nice, love to see you implementing all your talents!

[@XarftoneYT]

0:23 to 0:26 why that guy sounds like grey gravel. I know gravel in minecraft is Grey But his sound is more likely to be grey . If I agree comment me

[@Nico_DiAngelo]

I have synesthesia and autism. Its super cool but it can also be painful and cause sensory overload often. It makes going out in public so much worse. I associate words, letters, numbers, and people with colors, smells, and tastes. It’s super cool, but really painful sometimes

[@ObjectionHearsay-jj6tu]

I have no words- this is just really well done 😂

[@MikaylaGaming]

With my… with my Cynthia lol 1:23

[@MegaMonkeVr]

“Synesthesia” “Bless you”

[@SamChaneyProductions]

It's funny because I have number-color synesthesia but I still have imposter syndrome about it, like "is my connection between 3 and red really strong enough or am I just trying to be cool?". The fact that I have had it and told my parents about it before I knew heard the term for it gives me more confidence but still I doubt myself sometimes

[@Athrix94]

THE BEST. Even the ads Daniel does are insane. Daniel. Never change. You bring a pizza pie slice of peace to the world.

[@EnderEmber]

I have synesthesia and i basically see color and images everywhere. I know someone who's voice always reminds me of a burning rose, it's bright red and beautiful but with a bit of hidden sadness. Most music to me looks like scribbles so for many years of my life i actually hated music until i found a genre that looks like dancing to me. Wind also has it's own colors but it's more subtle than other things yet at the same time overpowering.

[@AllThingsWithHope]

This was very enjoyable 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 the not knowing how to say synesthete hit home 😅 and the cat sound followed by the “I’m sorry hand gesture.. also “the sensation of receiving a large tribal tattoo” is so dang funny to me!

[@bebeth8468]

1:18 not the perineum 💀

[@destinywalker2001]

I’m sorry but the character break got me good 😂 “Don’t not say the word Uber to me right now” 😂

[@homoevolutus]

I missed the first "bless you". New fan!

[@catc2004]

2:00 the cat brrt was adorable

[@thelookingcat]

As someone who actually has synesthesia, this was hilarious.

[@jos-dbp]

i have musical synesthesia and this is a perfect example of my friends not knowing wth that is

[@TheCasualHazeFox]

Love the video and I honestly love to how at the end of the AD is talks about his tip and at the end he conveniently places his hands over his waistline. Haha I don't know if that was intentional but it was certainly right on time.

[@orinblank2056]

I don't know if it's synesthesia, but I definitely get a mental color and image to music fairly often. It doesn't actually manifest as a true sensation, but certain songs give me very clear color impressions, and I tend to think of music more as a moving thing

[@NgocNguyen-rh1iw]

I am also a person with synesthesia. I am quite sensitive to numbers and letters, they always appear in my head with colors. for example: 0 is white, 1 is black, 2 blue, 3 orange yellow, 4 red, 5 green, 6 conbant blue, 7 orange brown, 8 black, 9 dark blue. letter A is red, B blue, C yellow, D light brown, J is yellow brown, (E,O,I) is white, (S,H,Z) is black, (K,M,N,L) belongs the green system, (Y,P) belongs to the blue system, (U,X)is gray, V is brick red. And when I listen to a classical music, its color will always dancing in my head. All that I say is true, I have always shown the colors of these things in my head when I was a child, I didn't even know about this syndrome at that time, I simply saw colorful things (i also see the color of each name, I don't find it obnoxious, this syndrome helps me in drawing a lot😂)

[@maze6797]

cool story beanie guy

[@wippo42]

These comments kinda make me want synesthesia

[@NileR]

I love how you can hear him laugh at 1:09😂

[@nickm2015]

you are very talented, dude. I'm impressed

[@NoiceKirby]

This video reminded me of Count Olaf from A Series Of Unfortunate Events

[@emmaaaaaa62442]

Lmao I have synesthesia and whenever Daniel started playing the dubstep, I smelled caramel. 😭

[@ktgame2640]

I like how he starts by saying its normal to taste orange juice when you hear a certain note

[@NicoleMay316]

Anyone else read A Mango Shaped Space? I will forever associate that book with synesthesia

[@haeyin]

I've heard of The man who tasted shapes, but I'll check out a Mango shaped space 🤔sounds interesting

[@aimeesygney6515]

SUCH an amazing book!!

[@toasega]

Everyone else: "Daniel's so good at portraying multiple characters" Me: I don't know if Daniel made that dubstep song, but it's actually one I'd listen to.

[@harphappens4644]

I love how he’s able to play different characters this is great

[@ArchieDude-ml2ek]

I literally learned I have like 3 types of this today and it comes up in my recommended on a different device on a different account. Crazy. Also I agree with not being able to pronounce it lol

[@gracechica14]

As someone who has synesthesia I can confirm this is exactly what it’s like
