One morning deaf guy from Istanbul by the name of Muharrem was surprised to notice that people on the street spoke to him in sign language. The world, which had previously been deaf to him, suddenly began to respond! Passers-by, sellers, a taxi driver - as if by magic, everyone around could now communicate with Muharrem. How this happened, and what the guy's reaction was, can be seen in video.
Muharrem's neighbors studied the language of the deaf and dumb for a month in secret from himself
One day, hidden cameras were placed throughout the area
Team from the company Samsung and advertising agency Leo Burnett trained Muharrem's neighbors in sign language for a month. On the appointed day, cameras were installed in the city, and sister Ozlem, who was aware of what was happening, went out with her brother for a walk. The guy was completely shocked when strangers to him began to easily communicate with him in a language that he could understand. What is accessible and familiar to ordinary people, for people like Muharrem, is akin to a miracle. This whole venture was conceived as an advertisement for a new call center for the deaf and hearing impaired in Turkey, as well as to draw attention to the existing language barrier between people.
In the morning Muharrem and his sister Ozlem went outside
… and a stranger suddenly said to them "Good morning!" in the language of the deaf and dumb
The local baker was also at the same time
One man dropped oranges, and when Muharrem picked them up …
… the man invited Muharrem and Ozlem to take an apple with them - and also in sign language
Muharrem is puzzled - how does everyone know sign language?
And even a taxi driver ?
The guy is confused, but the sister knows what the matter is
As they walk towards the main square, the team prepares for the final
Neighbors approach them from all sides
The guy's reaction speaks for itself
It is very important to overcome communication barriers …
… especially for people who face these barriers every day
The entire scene of what is happening can be seen in this video:
Of course, it is incredibly important to provide help to those who need it. And not only for people, but also for animals. As for example, they did it heroes of the video selection, in which ordinary passers-by show real humanity, saving animals from disaster.

Why the "great and mighty" Russian language did not become the state language in the USSR
The largest country in area in the entire history of human civilization was the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. However, if you look into all the intricacies of such a designation as "state", the USSR did not have one very important component of it. This is a single state language. After all, the Russian language officially, from the point of view of legislation, never became the state language in the Soviet Union
An American island where the language of the deaf was more important than English
How could a society look like, where people with disabilities are included in common life, making the environment accessible only because it is normal not to allow everyday life to belittle human dignity - a tradition and a common thing? History knows the answer to this question. In the nineteenth century in the United States there was an island called Martha's Vineyard, where the deaf and dumb were included in the general life, like nowhere else
Photo artist showed what the world will be like when androids become neighbors of people
Have you ever wondered who lives next door to you? No? Then it's time to take a closer look at your neighbors. What if, for a long time, we are all surrounded not by people, but let's say, high-tech and perfect androids, who are damn hard to distinguish from a person not only externally, but also emotionally, because modern "machines" have learned to show their own character, and along with him and intelligence, unusual for them
An easy way to learn sign language from illustrations
Renowned artist Alex Solis has created a series of drawings that can be used to learn sign language. The image of each gesture is supported by a miniature illustration, thanks to which the information is easier to remember. Unknown gestures are associated in our minds with cute drawings - and the language is assimilated as if by itself
