heres the deal. i have astigmatism in my eyes and am forced to wear glasses. i have noticed that my sense of hearing and smell are stronger than most other people have. anyone here believe that if one of your senses is weak, then one or more of the others are enhanced?

dave123
makes sense

Rogue Jedi
a lot of the time i hear something or smell something that others do not.

nazgulinthedark
yeah, i have really bad eye sight and i can hear things that the rest of my family can't

that sounded weird messed

like, if the washing machine is on and its loud, i can hear my mom cell ring but my mom and my sister cant

Rogue Jedi
my friend kristine has no sense of taste, but her eyesight is like 20/10.

dave123
is that good?

Rogue Jedi
20/20 is perfect vision. 20/10 is like a little better than that.

nazgulinthedark
i have like 20/50 vision i think

the Vee
i beleive that..
unfortunately for me i have crappy eyesight, occasionaly crap hearing
and im not too sure about smell or taste, i think theyre average
But if you feel an advantage thats cool, kinda like compensation

yerssot
wasn't that proven?

like ... blind people have an extremely well develloped hearing and ...damn.. something else too but forgot...

Rogue Jedi
kinda like daredevil.

yerssot
"How can you see into my eyes
like open doors.
Leading you down into my core
where I've become so numb.
Without a soul
my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home."

(reminds me of bidmyblood)

Rogue Jedi
ok............

yerssot
that's from the titlesong messed

the Vee
Ahh...
So anyone got any other cool 'super' powers?

nazgulinthedark

flavinho

Rogue Jedi

nazgulinthedark

flavinho

Rogue Jedi

LarryTheArch

flavinho

nazgulinthedark

flavinho

Baylin
I have poor vision, poor hearing and my sense of smell/taste is pretty crap - but I'm psychic so it doesnt matter...

Darth Revan
yes that happens to animals too

I've known dogs that were totally blind but could still get around and pretty much be normal dogs yes

Rogue Jedi
i see dead people.

Baylin
But thats only because they dont know how to be anything else... confused

Darth Revan
roll eyes (sarcastic) and you would know, wouldn't you Baylin stick out tongue

Rogue Jedi
i see alive people too.

Darth Revan
So, which group am I in? the dead people or the alive people?

Rogue Jedi
dunno...you could be having an off day.

LanİeWindu
I have an astigmatism in my right eye, but only my sense of smell is great...my hearing is selective wink, I only hear what I want to hear.

Tptmanno1
Thats the best kind of hearing!

Rogue Jedi
*holds hand to ear*
HUH?!?!?!!?!?! laughing

JediHDM
yes, it is more or less proven that your other senses compensate for a lost or damaged sense. IE Blind people having exceptional hearing because they have to have it to survive, and partly because when you can see well, you rely on your sight, but when you lose that, you have to rely on something else. So the hearing comes into play.
