  • what did she say? didn't hear shit?!

  • Aw this is so awesome!!!

  • 1:15 so your que to say "i love you" dude...

  • she speaks to her like a dog or a 2 year old haha

  • @Slayerlegend13

    When ur born with hearing, u develop the nessecary muscles in you auditory canal to enhance and determine noises. Since she was able to hear at one time, she has those muscles. That's why if a child is born deaf, its crucial to do this type of implant so that they brain can develop and understand sounds as they grow up. My mother has cochlear implants, she lost her hearing due to @meningitis. I'm thankful she can hear again.

  • Yay god bless you girl :D And I like your tattoo.

  • it always warms my cold, dead heart to see things like this

  • Best Video on Youtube. Ever. So Brillent and Wonderful :) thank you for making my life seem so much better :')

  • @chancemayne hahaha true that!

  • How can she speak so well, if she was def since 8 years old?

  • @SLAYERLEGEND13 it says she was deaf since she was born. and i was wondering the same thing

  • Congratulations girl :D

  • All you people making sexist jokes should be ashamed. I love making jokes as much as anyone, but this is one time we should be nothing but celebrating this beautiful moment. A moment that we actually get to share with someone who gets to finally experience something we take for granted every day. I'm ecstatic for this girl, and I would hope everyone else could be too.

  • Sorry, but i have to point this out.."would you like to hear your husband say something?" *no reply*

  • Hey someone tell the deaf girl to lemme fuck(;

  • That's awesome, quite literally made my day. She's got some music listening to catch up on!

  • Great! Now I can finally tell her to make me a sandwich while she is in the kitchen!

  • reading is 4 gaylords

    id rather smoke weed

  • @14yroldgeniusatheist If your IQ is over 200 then why do you like to smoke weed? YOu fucking twat.

  • @cheezoncrack what has the iq to do with smokin weed or not? lol.

    nothin but just prejudices as usual.

    and good to hear bout that.. i couldnt imagine how it would be like without music and the voices of the ppl that are important to me =X

  • That's great!

  • I listened to you on MPR with Dick Gordon tonight and you sound sooo happy. Wow, what a story on the Story. The best to you and the Fam. Can I send you a bag of crutons? Bob.

  • Beautiful.

  • I saw this video a while back, but just saw the pinup girl tat on NY Ink. Reminds you to really appreciate what you have. Still brings tears to my eyes.

  • Why is there no dubstep remix of this?

  • Only thing I don't understand is how can she be deaf, but then upon hearing for the first time she can speak in perfect English. Not saying its not real, but I don't understand that aspect of it.

  • @basscase78 Because she lived her life with hearing aids to help her hear anything at all and if you watch the episode of NY Ink she is on the you will hear that she is still adjusting. She explains a lot on that episode.

  • @basscase78 me neither

  • that would be like being absolutely poor, and finding the winning lottery ticket.

  • She had extensive training and help through def ed school and other resources. This allowed her to lean the English language while she was deaf and helped her learn how to speak before she could actually hear.

    Go watch her appearance on Ellen. She explains everything.

  • My question is not how she can talk, but how she can understand other people right off the bat... if she's never heard words spoken, how does she know what they are? Unless she somehow can feel the actual vibrations, like what Beethoven learned to do... help me out here.

  • i am so happy for you, seriously. the joy you seemed to experience was heart warming.

  • seen you on new york ink. bad ass tats. congratulations! 

  • how is it possible she can hear when the vital orcans in her earrs were transmited defectivley when she was born, it is great how she can hear but was she actually 100% deft?

  • beatuiful i saw you onny ink ithough it was amaseing

  • Just seen your episode on NY ink, that's probably the best thing in the world!!!! Congratulations

  • cmon no hug?

  • Wonder how she learned how to talk with out hearing. Well COngrats!!!!!! Im so happy to watch videos like these.

  • YouTube needs more videos like this

  • thats AWESOME man, congrats :-)

  • VIDEO OF THE YEAR!!!!

  • I am so happy for you. I wish u well in the upcoming year !

  • I was in love with her tattoo:)

  • this is amazing

    

  • Theres one word to describe this....incredible

  • I'm confused xD How can a person that was born deaf, speak english so well?

    Would love an explanation, maybe I didn't understand it right c:.

  • @NStuker You can take speech therapy so that deaf people can learn to control their vocal cords and speak legibly! I know because I'm an ASL student! :)

  • I've seen this a gazillion times, but it gets me every time. Pure gold.

  • Just saw her on NY Ink, and had to see the full video... Makes me cry! So, so happy for you!!! And I love your new tattoo!!! XD

  • saw her on ny ink and had to watch video made me cry

  • @sodapop684 She was in NY Ink, link me to the episode NAO NAO NAO!!!!!

  • Same here,just saw this on ny ink.Very cool ink and amazing story.So happy for you with both ink and hearing EVERYTHING.

  • Just seen on ny ink awesum

  • i can't even help but shed tears when i see this vid.. I'm no poof either lol but damn! this is a powerful moment! And her being so gorgeoous doesn't hurt either :D

  • Or is she able to hear everyone but her voice till now? Maybe the title was just not that clear. Either way.. i'm lost. Great vid though :)

  • Not that i think this is fake. But if she was born deaf. how does she speak so well? I would think it would be like, well, you know. not that clear. Like Marlee Matlin. I know nothing about how that works, and don't know anyone who has been deaf. So.. help me out.. im confused.

  • @Wesleech I sort of was thinking the same thing. Also she responds to all of the nurses questions pretty easily. I would think if you were hearing actual language for the first time you might not understand it so well. Maybe she was lip-reading what the nurse was saying? Who knows what it's like to hear for the first time, except this girl.

  • @louiedthe1st She said she used hearing aids all her life

  • My Activation was great, but this brought tears to my eyes.

  • the husbands laugh/chuckle ruined this video....

  • Treasure your senses people.

  • imagine hearing music for the first time at 29...

  • Lovet it, nice to see something and truly bring a smile to my face

  • she's beautiful

  • There's a few people making threads that say very insulting things about god. If you are referring to the Christian God, then you need to look at history: no historian in their right mind would deny the existence of Jesus Christ, and we still can't find his body.

    Those of you who are Christians. We know because of the HS inside of us. Don't bother throwing pearls to pigs.

  • @TheCarrot1975 Millions of Christians, who believed exactly how and what you believe and with "HS" inside of them too, woke up and let reality reason with them; you just simply haven't caught up to it yet that's why you're still spewing old time bullshit.

  • I am probably the most cinical, cold hearted prick alive and I cried after seeing this.

  • @TheyCallMeTex I didn't. It wasn't even that emotional.

  • so happy for you.

  • fake

  • Oh wow, that's really touching x

  • BEATIFUL

  • It's kinda weird that a girl who had never heard before can talk like that.. I've met some deaf people who can't talk like that...

  • @TheApericurb Yeah she was on Ellen and she said she had intensive speech therapy as a child. It's incredible what modern technology can do.

  • thats so COOL

    Congratulation and the best to you in the future.

  • Hi, I am an audio/electronic engineer, who worked on the first implants. You just gave meaning to my life and my work! Regards e ;)

  • Awwh!

  • Congratulations, lol, I am crying now!

    I cannot say that I have EVER seen technology do anything more beautiful than that. I can only imagine.

  • I'm happy for you

  • Aaaw good for her! You can see the joy =)

  • hearing aids that how i old i start to use it

  • How come she can talk since she was born deaf ?

  • i am deaf i better then her i not cry i was happy dff sound loud then old one when get new was i start 3 year old now i am 37 now i look for new thing but i try deafchat not work i look for dff site none chat for deaf ppl only hearing ppl like myyearbook,facebook i use now

  • @bay00374 well you type like you're still 3

  • i am a bit confused. people who are born deaf do not learn to speak like the rest of us, if they learn to speak at all, its usually pretty obvious they were born deaf..... is there more background info to this story?

  • This is soooo amazing!!!! What a blessing!

  • Oh my gosh! god does miracles! god bless you! :)

  • Meant device but not deviant ,sorry

  • This is so amazing , was so thrilled to see this. Where can one get more info about the companies that carry this deviant and the docs that deal with it. What us the main difference between this ans the coca implant .

  • You have a beautiful voice and a beautiful laugh , thank you for sharing this with everyone !

  • Way to steal someone else's video.

  • This video got all blurry half way through.

  • Watch her interview on the Today Show (google it) and see the COVERUP the Today Show did! Did you spot the difference between the two videos? The TODAY SHOW had her COVER HER TATTOOS. See my post on this at memyselfandhim

  • I think this new piece of technology is amazing! Mt parents are deaf and when i was little my mother wanted to hear me so she got a cochlear implant. She had had it replaced 3 times and she told me that the seccond we can afford the new device you have we are heading right down to john hopkins hospital. my father chooses not to get anything and im ok with that and all the other people out there saying both are wrong IS WRONG!

  • 6 people are deaf and jealous

  • God Bless! Enjoy hearing the world around you. And never listen to the idiots~ and you will hear them everywhere! You made me smile today. And I heard on our local news that Ellen helped out as a suprise! I love Ellen! <3

  • Go science! Now, the blind. Do it, science! Doooo it. *disciplianary look*

  • If she was born deaf, how does she know how to speak clearly, and how does she immediatly understand what the doctor was saying. She was probably deaf temporarily, but not all life!

  • last thing...This video is beautiful! and impactful and perhaps yes the debates should be kept off it.. i'm embarrassed by Christians who just proclaim people are going to hell if they believe in science...maybe they are figuring things out, you're not setting a good testimony of who Jesus is...it's kind of a false witness.

  • @abcJarrad Its a debate that could go on forever, My answer would be that it is evident in creation around us, unexplainable events and the parallelism that we all desire to have purpose, we all desire love, no one is perfect so doesn't that result in the notion that we must have been created with these desires by a perfect creator? the world wasn't an accident. you may continue to say i can not prove God exists but you can not prove He does not exist therefore you hold no argument.

  • That is so awesome! Good for you, girl.

  • I am appalled by how many people have commented on this about absolutely nothing having to do with the video. Keep your religious debates where they belong.

    This video is so touching. Congratulations!

  • not ture......

  • who's to argue "God" didn't give us free will to fix things out of our control?

    = mindfuck

    this is truly an awesome awesome video though

  • Lol, Atheists are mad

  • @MrMphloI no necessarily atheists, just people in general who don't like religious people saying "thanks god" when really it's thanks to the scientists that designed the implant. they totally overlook the human potential for something that doesn't even have proof behind it. just a book and years of spreading the "word" i mean wtf

  • It's the first time she hears english .. O.O ? I'm doubtful.. :/

    But if it's true, it's beautiful..

  • Ahh the old God versus Science battle raging on here...What about a cosmic definition of God that encapsulates science? God as pure awareness? Why does God have to be some personalized force that grants people good fortune or deafness? What the fuck happened to the Oversoul! "There is no fucking god" is the top rated comment, and it's coming from someone as ignorant as any fundamentalist Christian. The cosmic unity underlying all things is beyond maybe their comprehension...

  • Theres science because GOD created humans with brains to create science. At the end of the day, no matter how much you refuse GOD and worship science, you gonna die and burn in hell and science cant save you from it. GOD will keep science around to be used as another method to help humanity n those whom believe in GOD, will be saved in heaven were science is not needed.

    Thank you GOD for giving them intelligence to save others through science :)

  • @IMTHETRUTHH so you're telling him to kill himself because his beliefs are different than yours? what the fuck do they teach you in that "church" of yours

  • @TheCabbageProduction I`m not telling him to "kil himself" neither I wish death upon anyone. All I said you can read it again above because I will not type the same thing. Who da fuck are you to question my believes or what they teach in any church ?

  • @IMTHETRUTHH aww were you offended? prove to me that there's a god and i'll GLADLY recant what i've said. honestly.

    im waiting....

    ya i thought so

    last time i checked america was known for it's religious freedom. along with that freedom comes the right to questions others'. otherwise how else will someone learn?

  • @TheCabbageProduction Prove to me that there`s no God...Im waiting...ya I thought so

    You cant question my religion because you dont even know me son..then because you dont believe I should go and say "what kind of whore is your mother" ? The fact is that I dont even know u or her so I cant say that.

    No matter how much prof you get, theres nothing to be done if you dont want to believe. You believe in trying convince others of something with no proff. I have faith, n I need no proff

  • @IMTHETRUTHH fair enough. i just hate the fact that people go and say "thank god for this miracle" when really they don't even think about the scientist(s) who got this brilliant idea and did tons of research and made prototypes and eventually built the technology. unless of course the scientist IS god but hey what do i know, right?

  • @TheCabbageProduction God created a man with a brain, and he gave him intelligence to invent science in order to help humanity. Now, you can worship science, a machine, an electronic device, a car, but these was all created by man...and the man was created by God n he gave man a brain to think and create science to help humanity. Yes we thanks God for helping a scientist to invent a device to help a deaf person. It is a miracle from God !!!

  • @IMTHETRUTHH that's were our opinions differ. you think there's a higher being that "created" man (how could that happen). and i think we evolved over a loong time time. so really it's just two different beliefs. you have to understand, however, that the man who had the brains wasn't just born like that. it took years of hard work and dedication to his career.... hopefully you understand that something's are just the result of hard work, not "god"

  • @TheCabbageProduction Ok no problem, I know we came from God...u think we came from a monkey then dats ok. I believe in God, not in a theory saying dat earth was created by itself then somehow a monkey appeared n next thing you now it turned in to a man and here we are. You can deny your parents and say you came to this earth by urself as a result of hard work...but the fact wont change..u came from ur parents. Hard work or science cant save you from hell, repent now b4 is too late my friend.

  • @IMTHETRUTHH but can u prove that there is hell and god? because last time i checked, quantum mathematics proved that there in fact WAS a big bang. and there's more than enough proof to prove evolution. and i don't recall ever saying i didn't come from my parents so idk where "u came from ur parents". what came first the chicken or the egg? neither choices make sense, but ur beliefs say that the chicken would've suddenly APPEARED. even evolution makes more sense for that question... no offense

  • @TheCabbageProduction can you prove that theres evolution ? Show me a monkey turning into one of us. theres more than enough proof to disprove evolution..millions of facts that contradicts the theory. God created us, I have faith n I need no proff, but since you do, then why is it that you believe that earth was created by itself, we come from a monkey, and theres no hell ?...you dont have faith, but a theory that cant prove anything is what make sence to you ? ok then

  • @IMTHETRUTHH makes more sense than everything just FUCKING APPEARING i mean wtf. majority of people believe in god because only a minority of people actually have rationality behind their statements

  • @TheCabbageProduction and @IMTHETRUTHH stop flooding you fucking losers. if you want to have a conversation with your boyfriend why don't you guys add each other on facebook or something

  • @Killinemdead1 awww are you bothered by it? cuz there's no way in hell ima stop a conversation cuz of YOUR stupid ass. mind your own business.

  • @TheCabbageProduction fucking loser

  • @Killinemdead1 any better comebacks or is that all you got?

  • @Killinemdead1 You mother is a loser

  • @TheCabbageProduction Nah they minority simply refuse to accept God because they have no faith and they want prof for everything. Science will never be able to explain what God has created and where do we go after we die. Dats Gods engineering, all they can do is come up with senceless theories and act like the world has been figured out lol. So you say that we die, nothing hapens after, and we come from a monkey than comes from a cloud...yup, you do got the world figured out. So rational !!!

  • @TheCabbageProduction I was using ur parents as an example. What hapens with atheists like you, is that you all wanna live a sad life. There are millions of unanswerd questions that your science n theories cant explain and you act like you got the world figured out. You cant prove the inexistense of our heavenly father n u say he doesnt exist. Like the majority of humanity, I have my believes, faith and personal proff n expereinces...I need no explanation for everything because I trust God.

  • @IMTHETRUTHH im not necessarily athiest. im "hindu" but i only follow the geeta in the sense that i believe in the morals it contains in the stories and what not. the fact that ur christian isn't a problem to me or anything, because i do, in factn believe there's a lot to learn in ur religion. however, im simply saying that even IFFFFFIIIFIFIFIFFIFFIFIF there's a god, you can't thank "them" for this miracle. science has disproved some of ur beliefs. do u believe dinosaurs existed?

  • @TheCabbageProduction Dinosaurs ? Maybe, if God created them yes. Theres no solid proff of their existence, but I cant say they didnt exist. So, you are not athiest. You are religious but theres no God in your religion because everybody is a god in stuff like that. saguNa brahman is what can be called something similir to God for us ?

  • @IMTHETRUTHH there's plenty of proof for dinosaur. i have no problem with people's beliefs until they begin to be irrational. and there kinda IS a god in Hinduism, (supreme power or whatever) but i just don't believe in it... i just like the stuff it says about how the mind is connected to the body and stuff like that. Hinduism is a relatively science based religion. they new the earth revolved around the sun thousands of years before the europeans. i prefer science based religion more...

  • @IMTHETRUTHH AND IM NOT SAYING MY RELIGIONS ANY BETTER there's a lotta stuff in mine that science has disproved also. just letting u know im not hating or anything lol

  • @TheCabbageProduction So, u aint no atheist ....you do have a religion.... ?

  • @IMTHETRUTHH well ya i guess. i do believe in the "lesson" demonstrated in hinduism, but i don't believe in one primary god. while hindus DO believe in a main "god", there are many aspects that make perfect sense when they're totally independent. so yes, TECHNICALLY im atheist cuz i don't believe in god but that doesn't mean i hate people who do...

  • @IMTHETRUTHH "create science" That is just filled with awesomeness.....I mean how can you argue with someone who thinks humans created science with their brains. All things aside, awesome vid.

  • @bdmckell are you high?

  • I was literally crying after this it's beautiful moments like these that make you realize what you have is so precious. (: I

  • Science. Fixing what god cannot.

  • Science. Fixing what god cannot.

  • really over the debates on here, if God made her deaf...and science made her hear...what made science= God soooo yeah. This is a beautiful video. Although I support the deaf community, my cousin is deaf. And I believe it's a beautiful thing to be deaf or hearing...whatever you choose. In heaven the blind will see and deaf will hear!

  • @necole44 idiot.

  • @sk8r2000 hahaha PROVE IT!?

  • @necole44 how about you prove there is a god

  • Amazing so happy 4 her :)

  • SCIENCE: 1 RELIGION: -2,547,239,102.34

  • Thank the merciful lord Science for this miraculous event.

  • She has an american accent....she's been deaf for 29 years?!

  • Lol, God made her deaf, science made her hear. End of story.

  • @rgeis86574 made me lol.

  • @rgeis86574

    There is no fucking god.

  • @sk8r2000 Can you just end your life now please..whats the point..in your eyes there is no God anyways!

  • @robinho1979

    I live my life without God. I don't wish to end my life, because I believe that there's no afterlife, so I want to live my life to the absolute full instead of getting down on my knees and pretending that I'm having a good life.

  • @sk8r2000

    EXACTLY!!

  • @sk8r2000 dude dont listen to all these douchebags there isn't a god until they prove it so just ignore them lol

  • @sk8r2000 WTF does that have to do with the video moron!!

  • @sk8r2000 your a punk, im a ex vietnam combat veteran, 18 months in da nang, ive seen many good soldiers beg GOD to save their life after being shot. maybe when you do....face a real threat, youll yell out for obviously the one friend you COULD have???? your language, well your on a computer, tough person.

  • @sk8r2000 dude ur so fucking amazing

  • @TheReverendDB excellent, my life is equally well, without god.

  • Thanks science.

  • Fucking onions on my desk

  • I was under the impression that people born deaf can learn to speak, but with a lisp and funny accent like that woman from the TV show Sue Thomas F.B.Eye

  • THIS ISNT YOUR VIDEO, YOU RE UPLOADED IT.
