I stumbled upon this a few minutes ago, it's rather remarkable that humans can train themselves to do this.

Very neat. He just needs a blowhole and he's good for ocean life.

**Reincarnate** · 03-1-2011, 11:19 AM

this is amazing

That's remarkable. It also helps that his mom supports him so much and encourages him to go do whatever he wants to do. I think Ben will succeed greatly in life and hopefully this isn't the only time we hear about him.

No that's impossible. How is that possible? Is that possible????

**flashpantss** · 03-1-2011, 11:45 AM

very impressive.

**Magic_V2** · 03-1-2011, 01:14 PM

Inspiring. I read recently on a credible site (no source, sorry people) that the sight-center of the human brain will develop its own spatial awareness during extended periods of lack of actual sight that allows the blind to "see", only in a different way than those gifted with sight.
This boy has taken it to the next level, further adapting his already-proficient senses as a blind person to become something more.

This is really old, the kid died in 2009.

**Reincarnate** · 03-1-2011, 05:18 PM

According to Google, he died from the same cancer that claimed his eyes (retinoblastoma) to begin with. He developed a tumor in his sinus cavity.

Izzy · 03-1-2011, 06:06 PM

How old was he.
