ReplyDeleteIn this post there were two videos. One about a woman hearing the sound of a voice for the first time, one about a man hearing a specific waltz for the first time. Both have wondered for tens of years what these sounds would be like. The shock seems to be the strongest for the cochlear implant but I also doubt Sir Anthony Hopkins heard this waltz the first time on this specific video.
