DEAF PEOPLE HEARING SOUND FOR THE FIRST TIME !

What was your favorite clip?

I’m deaf. That moment of amazement at being able to hear, followed by the break down in tears, is the relief and stress of so long having to cope in your own private world. Makes me cry in happiness seeing that.

3:51 the sister making sure the first thing her brother heard was "I love you" just melted my heart

I’m hearing impaired. The moment they turned my hearing aids on, from what I thought was a near silent doctor’s room, suddenly boomed with the sound of chatter and technology whirring away. I broke down, then my mum broke down. Truly is a wonderful thing to realise you can now hear better but saddened at what you had been missing out on for years.

When that boy could hear, and his whole family was there, and his sweet sister said "i love you" i lost it. The first thing she wanted him to hear. Amazing.

Man, the things we take for granted... I'm so happy for these people!

I can totally relate to these people. I started losing my hearing at age 30 and by my early 50's I had lost 90% of my hearing. I got my first cochlear implant 3 years ago at age 60. I was so taken over with emotion because I could understand someone talking that I started crying. My wife was in the room with me and when she started talking I understood every wood. That day when we got home from the doctors I sat outside on our backyard deck listening to the wind chimes, birds and just all the sounds that I have missed for the last 30 years. When I got my other cochlear in the other ear it was the same reaction. It's just amazing what the cochlear implants have given me. Being able to talk on the phone for the first time in about 10 years. Being able to have a conversation with my family. The first time I heard a fire truck I was driving and I thought an alarm was going off on my car and when I didn't see any dash lights I look in the mirror and saw the fire truck about 3 blocks behind me and was able to pull over. I was so excited and couldn't wait to tell my wife what I heard. To this day I'm still hearing new sounds.

I love the scenes in this video but you know what else? In times like these, when things all over the world seem to be harder and more divisive than any other time I can remember, there are thousands of people here all saying they were crying out of joy for someone else's good fortune. It's good to remember that most of us want good things for each other most of the time.

I'm a retired audiologist. I was overwhelmed by my first experience with a child I helped hear for the first time. Many experiences later, I had found it very difficult to deal with the selfish narcissists who insisted the TV wasn't too loud and/or their family could "just talk louder." Early in life I asked God to teach me patience. Once again, I wasn't prepared for what I was in for. We studied all this stuff - but life is always different at street level. I'm grateful for my career, and better for it.

I am bawling my eyes out for these people. Especially the kids who can hear their parents for the first time. This is so amazing for them. I am so happy for them.

Both my parents were deaf. They're both gone now, too late for modern technology to help them hear but I am so happy for these folks who received the gift of sound! ❤ (It took me ten minutes to write this. I kept having to stop and wipe away the tears.)

I had a gf that was born totally deaf. Its amazing what technology can do to help people in life. She was very blessed to have her cochlear implants, and thanks to all the people that made and make this tech a reality! You all rock!

I had a freak accident, hitting the side of my head on my water heater, damaging my ear drum resulting in total hearing loss in that one ear. It was so difficult to deal with until I had surgery to replace that ear drum with skin grafting by the most amazing specialist. It's been 4 years and my hearing has been totally restored in that ear. These videos brought me to tears, happy tears.

I am a physician, and I can't being to list the gratifying moments in my job. But nothing comes close to these videos. If I had to do it all over again, I would go into audiology. Imagine being able to go to work each day, knowing that these scenes would repeat themselves over and over again! It has to be wonderful.

Amazing the difference is responses. Babies smile and giggle at a new sensory experience. Adults burst with such emotion, understandably. I feel so good for all of them - they're gonna hear things we take for granted - birds, wind through trees, rain, waves crashing, music, loved ones and so much more!

What we take for granted, others pray for. ❤touching

2:48 She lived 29 years without hearing. Her emotions are priceless.

As an musician/audio engineer, watching these always makes me cry like a baby because I couldn't imagine surviving my life without music

I bawled my eyes out with every one! The giggling baby’s reaction was absolutely PRECIOUS

That little girl at the end has the cutest reaction ever 🤩 The way she bounces with happiness, and that laugh is heartwarming.😊
