What’s Halloween Like For A Blind Person?

[@rzeka]

Tommy is the most wholesome guy on this whole site

[@Loonaurtheworld]

I K R :)

[@catsandalcohol99]

rzeka Reviewbrah and Tommy are in the same tier of wholesomeness

[@earthchan9171]

Maybe the whole world

did you call youtube a wholesome site?

Tommy with the full sized candy to give away. LEGIT!

[@scotscub76]

Tommy I suffer from serious depression and your videos and laughter really help me. Thank you.

[@applebottomjeans1534]

youre such a blessing

[@chloroplast8611]

you're

[@MisterBigBlunts]

Kids run from house to house to get candy quicker. Running = more candy. Source: Was kid

[@gg_v2]

Jimby source: common sense lol if you wanted the most candy

[@MisterBigBlunts]

Lol, he said in the video that he doesn't know why they ran.

[@megdoyle47]

And you don't want the houses to run out before you get to them, either. Running was a necessity.

[@MisterBigBlunts]

Candy was life. Therefore we were running for our lives.

[@pixelpino8371]

Tommy! This cracks me up beyond belief! My mother was blind since birth and I remember her wanting me to describe what I looked like on Halloween. I continue to browse your videos, went to Molly's channel, and am just surfing the content. Unfortunately, I lost my mother 2 years ago but all your videos are making me laugh, cry, and just rejoice in my mothers love for me. Man she had stories and we had them as well. I just started my own KZbin channel on gaming, mainly video games, and today I recalled a memory I haven't though about since i was a kid. I loved playing Nintendo, and I once taught her to play a few levels of Super Mario Brothers. I'd instruct, she's listen, and she picked up the sound that the game would make as she jumped and squished goombas. We played like that for hours. In fact, because we couldn't play regular board games or afford the blind version of Monopoly or Scrabble, she always encouraged me to play games and she loved the music. Your videos inspire me, your content urges me to grow my channel. Your doing great work! By the way, I am very jealous of your reel to reel. I am working through thousands of records, reel to reels, and tapes taking in all the music I used to listen to with my mom. Gob bless.

[@ActualGoatUnicorn]

You should do a "Blind Person Carves A Pumpkin" as a part of your art series.

[@wali6477]

GoatUnicorn yea

[@elr4f436]

the "knifes" that are use to carve pumkins are not harmful, i mean even a blind person can use them

[@jacklineescobar1700]

GoatUnicorn yeah I agree with that. I am blind myself, and I've been carving pumpkins all my life. With some assistance, but over the years I've learned how to do it myself.

[@nujnuj87]

Daisy Alverez are you dumb he can feel where his hands are it's basic human biology

[@heresyosmoothie695]

synthwave remixes Sighted people can and do accidentally hurt themselves carving pumpkins. I imagine being blind would potentially increase those odds. To redirect your question a little: are you dumb?

[@josuevegaj23]

I still think Tommy is one of the best KZbinrs :)

[@avalonandon]

I agree, Mexican or American Potato ;-)

[@thejonnuhh]

Aw those costumes of yours as a kid were adorable!

[@djmetcalf3815]

I figured Tommy was the type of guy to give out the good candy. Your doing the lords work my man.

[@itsyagirlindica3505]

I love his cheesy jokes and the way he always laughs at them. They're always funnier when he laughs at his own jokes. Nobody has jokes like that anymore its rare and i love that.

[@strats007stts8]

0:00 I love it whenever he says that! 😄

[@lammy3055]

Why is there a gate around cemeteries? Because people are dying to get in!

[@therogueadmiral]

I can picture tommy sitting there, holding his ipad, it reading out the comments on his videos. then he hears this one, and chuckles a bit. XD

[@Bunny-gc1rn]

The Rogue Admiral But he can't read on technology...

[@therogueadmiral]

Kawaii Potato "IT" reading out the comments. He's said before that he uses text to speech on his ipad to read comments.

[@Bunny-gc1rn]

The Rogue Admiral oh ok

[@dfreeman13]

I see what you did there.

[@daikaijuzilla]

Tommy is so pure, I love his personality and energy!

[@BlueSkyFight]

Tommy!!! You are just so funny!! I love your jokes about seeing and watching, I love your sense of humour and the fact that you are always smiling. I also think you are quite handsome by the way!! This is an amazing KZbin channel that is educating so many people that I find it amazing. I am from Spain and my mother works in the "blind people national organisation" let's call it that. I have always learnt about blind people through her work. And even me I had so many questions answered thanks to your KZbin channel!!! Keep up the good work. A huge fan from Spain living in Paris :)

[@creolebastard881]

Tommy is my favorite human for giving out full sized bars. I never got that stuff

[@tammysheehan4594]

Tommy, I met someone who lived in Nevada. I found out from her growing up that she always had halloween off! The reason why though is because it is Nevada Day. (Now though they celebrate it the last Friday of October)

[@helong91]

Hey Tommy! I just found your channel this week and I’ve already watched SO many videos! I love how much you’ve taught me already about life as a blind person. You’ve also taught me so much about appreciating life, which I really try to do, but I see you’ve been putting us all to shame in that department. You’re the most positive person I’ve ever seen! As a person with glasses, I wondered if that was hard for you to fully understand too. I watched your reflective, transparent, translucent video and you seemed to have a great idea of the difference, but I was surprised that Ben didn’t talk more about regular old eye glasses. They’ve always been really fascinating even to me who can see, glass configured in a way that makes my eyesight better. Anyway, I wish you all the best! I love your “dad” jokes!

[@GenJotsu]

Hey Tommy. Keep being cool. Learning a lot.

[@daiseysthebaby6071]

You have the best sense of humor! I hated Trick or Treating as a kid in South Florida. Most of the people would turn off their lights, yell "get off the lawn", or give me a penny! Lame-o!

[@someoneeveryone6623]

This guy makes me so happy.

[@CelloSeanMuller]

Does a blind person find places like Halloween Horror Nights at Universal, and other similar experiences (haunted houses for example), frightening and/or scary?

[@therogueadmiral]

if anything, its probably either nerve wracking or fun to hear and feel all of the people around you getting spooked, depending on the person.

[@degiguess]

Honestly I feel like they'd find it scarier because most of what makes us jump is the sound and having that paired with not being able to see your surroundings would be pretty scary

[@mymicks21]

I can't speak for haunted houses but I think sound is what makes horror movies scary 90% of the time

[@gagewhitman5018]

Kids can probably just keep coming back to this house over and over again and keep getting that jumbo size candy, he would probably never know...

[@korvo3427]

True.

[@ohyeagirl1111]

Have you ever done a haunted house or trail? I know the visual scares wouldn’t be accessible, but there’s always auditory or physical jump scares. Like loud noises or bursts of air.

[@erinkaye8382]

Tommy, you are by far one of the most beautiful people on this planet. Your personality & happy go lucky soul is just refreshing. Thank you for making me smile 💜💜

[@Adam-og1mi]

just came across ur channel, your channel is really insightful and entertaining, definitely subbing

[@celardore]

This bloke is adorable

[@avalonandon]

Isn't he? :-)))

[@pinkbunnygirl43]

Hey Tommy. I send you a package of fanmail back in April. Are you ever going to open it? Or have you already? It's okay if you don't, just let me know.

[@adamkey1934]

pinkbunnygirl43 Dear Mr. I'm-Too-Good-to-Call-or-Braille-My-Fans This'll be the last package I ever send your ass It's been six months and still no word - I don't deserve it? I know you got my last two letters I wrote the addresses in Braille perfect So this is my cassette I'm sending you, I hope you hear it I'm in the car right now, I'm doing 90 on the freeway Hey, Tommy, I drank a fifth of vodka, you dare me to drive?

[@zachcarter5274]

Adam Key ayyyyy Eminem bro that’s lit

[@djunaskye6220]

pinkbunnygirl43 hahaaha omg hi! I used to watch your channel a few years ago, so funny seeing you here. I don't remember your name though, sorry XD

[@jxmpking4384]

Adam Key damn I was listening to that song yesterday. Stan is lit.

[@strawberrymilksamurai]

Adam Key "My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all The morning rain clouds up my window, and I can't see at all And even if I could it'd all be meh, but the frame thing on my wall It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad" - Tommy, probably. Sorry, just had to make the joke... not meant to offend anyone. I love both Adam's joke and Tommy

[@RobtTa]

Thanks Tommy! I really enjoyed this video. =)

[@angelalbano4234]

Oh Tommy, you're such a delight!!!!

[@karenkoning2876]

Hi Tommy, just in case you ever wondered, lots of times sighted adults have to ask the kids what they're dressed up as too. I especially have trouble with characters from new kids movies and cartoons. Most kids like to tell you and some get upset if you can't tell what they are, so I ask a lot. :)

[@marinaschmz6888]

Love your videos!!

[@WilliamLeeSims]

Can we meet your sisters?

[@inhence7163]

Can I meet yours ??? Didn’t think so trump 2020

[@frxsty2585]

Gaming Connoisseur What

[@inhence7163]

NCR trooper idk I just think it’s rude to meet his sister and trump 2020

[@frxsty2585]

Gaming Connoisseur I don’t get how it is rude and i don’t know why you had to bring politics into this but ok

[@inhence7163]

NCR trooper you are like 12

[@BlindWithaVision1]

Hello Tommy, I love watching your videos!! Halloween is my second favorite holiday and it is different when you are blind. I started to go blind at age 19 and I honestly don't get scare anymore!! LOL, seriously, I love the custums, the candy, but when I go to Knott's Scarry Farm I hear everyone running and screaming and to me is no big deal. I do have lots of fun hearing people running away from all those "scarry" monsters. Thanks for sharing your experience with us...

[@cbly]

Trick or treating in my Grandparents' neighborhood, there was a blind woman who let the kids inside her house to get one of the huge frosted pumpkin shaped cookies she made, they were laid out on a huge table in her dining room. Some kids would try to grab more than one and she would yell, "Hey, only take one!" After a couple years of going trick or treating we realized she said that to everyone... or did she know somehow?

[@hollytaylor932]

This channel is so heartwarming :)

[@jessicaz2073]

Did you ever wear a mask that covers your face and eyes completely?

[@therogueadmiral]

oh man. that never occurred to me. he could wear the coolest masks ever! no need to see! granted, he'd still have to breath...

[@therogueadmiral]

NERDYBIRDIE 001 did they have eye holes/slits though?

[@tacticalchunder1207]

Trying to breathe in those bloody things is always worse than trying to see!

[@DanteYewToob]

Epic Daredevil Costume. Haha

[@lissana7]

Your videos are edited so well!

[@Geekella]

thanks for sharing, tommy!

[@steviehammond1964]

Your hilarious! Everyone should watch you . You brighten my day for sure.

He's been killing it at the bird Box challenge before it was a thing

[@ItsEm2022]

You are amazing Tommy!!!

[@Diraphe]

I've grown to hate Halloween and the month of October over the years. For some reason I have the worst luck at this time of year and something bad happens to me every October.

[@milson721]

At 2:20 I can relate to that Tommy. When I was 6 I remember hearing about Halloween and getting free candy from the neighbours and stuff, and I was like cool I'm going to have a fun day tomorrow, and after we came home with my brothers my mom said "That's a lot of stuff HA HA , when do you plan on eating it all, and I said tomorrow when I don't have school. Then she said my worst fear "Kids still have school even after Halloween honey" Then I immediately started crying and threw my candy in the trash. FUN TIMES!

[@MrDeejaydon]

This guys life is dark yet so colorful

[@cyder3062]

I'm a bit late but... What's your experience with mathematics as a blind person? Especially in higher level maths which traditionally heavily uses written symbols and shorthand notiom. Algebra would be a good early example of what I mean. I used to study physics and mathematics in college and I honestly cannot think of how I could even really manipulate lengthy equations without being able to see the formulas I am working with. Very curious. :)

[@hannahlane3998]

I love seeing the pictures from when you were younger

[@Polololitoed]

I'd love a video with your sisters. Would be nice to hear your stories from their point of view lol

[@wilsonseto1]

How to know this guy is a good guy, COSTCO SIZED CANDY BARS. THAT SEALS THE DEAL, TOMMY IS THE PERFECT GUY

[@ritasantos98]

loved the video, keep it coming Tommy! ❤️

Wow I’ve only just discovered this channel, are you still making new videos? I love love love your happiness :)

[@zprimus00]

2:11 Sisters: "It's like taking candy from a blind person."

[@Jaydoggy531]

Regardless, you're bombarded with "pumpkin-spice" everything. Coffee, doughnuts, cookies, beer, hamburgers, water, toilet paper OH GOD IT'S EVERYWHERE

[@causeitshannah]

Do you think you completely understand what it is to see? If most people had a sense that I didn’t I don’t think I would be able to completely understand what exactly I wasn’t experiencing if I couldn’t experience it.

[@32barty32]

Cause it's Hannah Ofcourse he doesn't. Its like trying to think of a new color, impossible.

[@sickfuck]

@@32barty32 but maybe the sounds or the context can scare him

[@Yesica1993]

So adorable!

[@gameragedad8953]

I agree. Halloween should be a national holiday!

[@TheWetbones]

Happy Halloween tommy!!!

[@kefie1029384756]

Y'all should do a guess-the-candy episode! Lay out a bunch of individually wrapped candies and blind vs blindfolded guess what they are by touch alone!

[@zori1422]

Tommy should gut a pumpkin! I bet he'd hate the feeling even more than noodles

[@brittnikay613]

Great video Tommy! QUESTION: Most of the things that I find creepy or scary are visual in nature. What sorts of things actually freak/ creep/ or wig you out? I'd love to hear it. Thanks!

[@DavidCAdams]

Tommy, did you have the Disney "Chilling Thrilling Sounds of the Haunted House" record when you were a kid?

[@mymicks21]

Hey Tommy can you make a video of you listening to real celebrity voices and impressionists and guess who the real one is? Maybe as a blind vs. blindfolded episode?

[@James8hg]

I still need a costume

[@boring_alien]

Hey Tommy! Just letting you know real quick that my Bell worked! 😁

[@chloroplast8611]

Tommy, you have the most wonderful smile! :-)

[@George-li1yv]

3:18 Literally the funniest guy ever.

[@Thislady_]

I am new to the channel and I love it. Thank you for all the information. A question that you might have already answered is do you shave? And if you do, do you do it yourself or go to a barber?

[@dula.peep.]

i love you tommy

[@CNder77]

Another great video I enjoyed :) And I hope you have a good Halloween Tommy! Here's something I'd love to see a video on :) Whats flying like for you? Are you interested in aviation and checking out the different planes and how they work? Like that car episode, where you rode that fast car and checked out all the others.

[@sarahrich2816]

Hey tommy! Love hearing your stories. I was womdering if you listen to audiobooks and if you could reccomend some good ones with good narrators

[@FraggleRagaraga]

Have you ever touched something and read it in Braille when it wasn't intentionally spelled out? Like rust bumps on a guard rail?

Do you have someone with you when handing out candy to chase off the kids who hit your house multiple times for those big candy bars? Just curious, not planning on doing it or anything 😂

[@gothicmatter9123]

I love this dude yes I agree Halloween should be a holiday where kids are off plus it's the best holiday period 🤘🏻💜

[@samhoey8247]

In the uk we get the full week off school for halloween :)

[@Takomaster87]

The dentist in the neighborhood I used to go trick or in would give us mulitple​ king size candy bars. It was pretty amazing

Must’ve been thinking: “This November is gonna be GOOOOOOD for business”

[@jurgita8886]

2:23 Oh yes. I felt the same..

[@ICARUSxRISING]

Tommy! 💜

[@dfreeman13]

New plan. We’re all going to Tommy’s house for Halloween.

[@infertilepiggy5667]

can tommy imagine things like simple shapes and geometry or could we sort of show him how to think of it like things drawn with a compass and ruler, i assume he can imagine what a cirlce and a line look like in theory if you know what i mean then you could maybe see if he gets how a hexagon is a cube from the corner if thought of as a 3d object, i dont know but it seems fascinating

[@Swampzoid]

You understand the spirit of things and that's why you enjoy the same things sighted people do I guess. I mean you can't see the costumes so, what, you can't see anything at all . You make up for it on a level we don't get.

[@Scrimm_]

I'd always hit the full size houses at least twice.

[@SamWal]

I wonder how a blind person would describe how aliens look like :D

[@samh4563]

in my school we have school on Halloween. But we get to dress up in school, however we can wear masks. We can wear hats. The only other day besides the day before Christmas break.

[@eateaten2908]

This guy only has two trick-or-treaters coming back all night.

Hey Tommy and Ben, I don't know if you're still interested in hearing about this, but I'm watching this video about 2 hours after it's been posted, but I haven't yet received the video notification for it.

[@kevinrdunnphs]

Have you ever tried rock climbing? With the safety rope and jutted out hand holds I feel like it could be doable
