I really enjoyed this. If you haven't heard of him before there was a gay neurologist who made a career writing about neurological disorders called Oliver Sacks. Robin Williams played him in a few movies and the two were friends. He was a fascinating individual and his loss was a true tragedy and his memoires are extremely interesting, funny, and touching. Dig through his life and see if you can find something funny in it to make a video about. He definitely talked about synesthesia, probably in a book called Hallucinations which is a fantastic read. His
most famous book was probably "The man who mistook his wife for a hat"
Nick has synesthesia too. Nick was seeing red the whole time.
OMG that is hilarious.
😂😂😂
Ughhh I almost spit my tea out!! 😂😫
😂😂😂😂
Bazinga!!😂😂
Nick’s cynicism balancing out Matteo’s need for attention is why they’re the perfect duo 😂
I think it was very fair of Nick to roast the man who made him sit still for 25 minutes while he pressed buttons on a computer. How dare you Matteo :P
😂🤣
As opposed to them sitting five minutes into a 15 minute convo and Nick not pressing ONE 😂
😂😂😂
Nick..."Wake me up when you're done lying" Nick, you're so mean! 😂😊😂😊❤
LMFAOOOO 😂
💀
No, he’s infantile & needlessly defensive because he’s willfully ignorant & he knows it & it hurts his EGO when others AREN’T. He’s CLEARLY mentally ill, he makes my Uncanny Valley SCREAM
Hahahah!!!!
Best is that this from a guy who pranked his besties with an attempt at a lie lol!
The Squidward-ness of Nick's voice makes it a million times funnier. Slay queen!😂😂😂
Truly!
Lame
ArrRrrRrrr mateyyyy
Honestly Matteo having synesthesia sounds like a flex and Nick not having any of it 😂
I spit out my coffee when I heard, "I think you're doing it for attention. " "If I went 30 years of..." You bring me utter joy #nicklove.
Matteo takes a synesthesia test while Nick watches 😭😭 next time have Nick do his own test but something like Buzzfeed's Which Bread Are You
"When i see u i've a reaction, why do u call that? Homophobia? That sounds good" NICK I CANNOT ☠
golden
The arrogance of Nick's all consuming conviction that if he hasn't heard of something, it doesn't exist is incredible.
Seeing a rainbow in your head sounds beautiful to me...but also Nick's constant roasting of Matteo made me laugh so hard.
"I don't see colour." -Nick @7:57
The comedic timing was perfect, why isn't he doing stand up too? 😂
I literally loled!
It would be too annoying for him
@RioRav can you imagine him on stage,
"Why are you laughing? that wasn't a joke." 🤣
I think he opens for Matteo sometimes? I could be wrong...
@@Leslie-wb8cbYes, Nick has.
Matteo, "This was a fun video!"...Nick, "For who?" OMG! You two together are absolutely hilarious!🤣😂🤣😂😂
“I don’t see color” almost got me snorting coffee out of my nose 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Never change, Nick! ❤
“Wake me up when you’re done lying.” I lost it!😂
Nick has the personality of a house cat! "Matteo I might be your friend an all, but I don't care about you or your problems!", Matteo: I have synesthesia!, Nick: I think you're lying! LOL
i see subtitles when i hear things...like my brain spells out what it hears, sometimes it's like scrolling subtitles and sometimes it just the letters piling up on each other in a vertical pile.
I just found out that this is a form of synesthesia
I have a spelling thing like that as well. As I’m listening or talking I always see the words almost being typed out like a typewriter.
so if you can't hear something clearly do you see **(mumbles indistinctly)** ?
@@Countfoscolikesmice😂😂😂💀💀💀
Same! I cannot remember anyone's name until I can picture the spelling in my head. If someone verbally tells me a name I haven't heard before and I don't know how it's spelled, I usually need it repeated a few more times before I can come up a phonetic spelling so I can actually visualize and remember it.
As a synesthete, this is the first time I had a visceral reaction to Nick's antics.
Matteo, I'm taking that test this afternoon. Thank you for explaining this in a way that someone like me can grasp. I have been mocked and told how "overactive" my mind is for over thirty years. You've provided context and words to an idea I could not fathom enough myself to communicate to those around me. Thank you dearly, Matteo. You're fun too, Nick.
Nick is bringing the HEAT 😂 revenge for Matteo always roasting Nick 🤣
'the fuck are they on about?' -me, with aphantasia
Same.
I had to google that. And now I know!
Oh no, that sounds awful lol
I have synesthesia as well, but mines mostly associated with music. I always think that neurological perceptions are so fascinating because we have to abstract our subjective experiences into terms others understand.
I was aware of synesthesia but what I find really interesting is the link to learning new languages… like someone else commented, more of a flex than anything else 😂
LOL At Nick "bulldozing on over" his new years resolution... "More Patience"
Let's just say we could never describe Nick as intellectually curious. Let's just say that.
I think "intellectually curious" is redundant, no?
Fun! Thank you for sharing your special power, Matteo, and taking us along as you completed the assessment!
My hubby has this. He sees colour for names, plus words. It's a real thing Nick.
I really love how accurate your impression of Nick was during one of your shows hahaha
Both of you are adorable and I thank the universe for your combined chaos ❤
Yay! Another video with Nick and Mateo!!
If he were saying it to anyone else, I'd say Nick was a jerk for saying that they're making up having their condition, but he's just mean to Matteo on principle, and I doubt anyone really takes the things Nick says that seriously anyway. 🤣
I would never say it to anyone else, only to my mortal enemy.
CMON SUNDAY UPLOAD! Thank you Mateo
Thank you both, great video.
I love you guys! 😂 you guys fight like my sister and I. I love when Nick says “allegedly” 😂
Matteo you are a saint to put up with this
This was an awesome video! We absolutely loved it! It was actually informative and hilarious.
Omg Nick’s face at 1:59 😂
😂
Dead ! He’s so over it 😂
Omg! I wrote the same comment! 😂
@@nicanonymus2491 haha I need that as a gif
Fascinated by synesthesia helping with languages.
Chris seemed to mention aphantasia, as in not being able to think in pictures.
So, when Matteo said think of coke can red, I can just about do it, but, it's gone in a second.
We have so much more to learn about each other.
Funnily enough Nick isn't interested.
But, he is wearing great jeans !
I’m so in love with this interaction between you guys ! So cute
😂 I love how over it Nick was the entire time 🤣 I was interested in what this condition was and the test when the video started. Then as the video progressed Nick won me over 😂
This was actually really cool I would watch another video of Matteo taking one of the other synesthesia tests, especially with Nick there to heckle Matteo, it’s part of the experience!
OMG I love the eye rolls and sarcastic remarks from Nick. I love him!! ❤😂
Fascinating! Wow! This was informative & absolutely hilarious Nick….!!!
That is so cool that this helped you learn other languages by the similar colors. Really interesting. Thanks for sharing! 🌈❤
I did a double dosed tab of acid on my fourth time tripping and the synesthesia kicked in HARD. I was overwhelmed because it felt like I was seeing the matrix of the world.
Like green is the number 7 and it bounces up and down. So watching grass sway was actually like seeing a sea of a trillion micro 7s rapidly jumping up and down in unison 😂It was overwhelming, disturbing, yet beautiful
Did it stay with you afterwards or dissipate once the acid wore off?
And this right there is why I do not do psychedlics - my brain is already doing this stuff without the drugs 😅
@@sweetrain000it dissipated when I came down but it comes back sometimes, almost like an aftershock/residual effect, if I get too stoned or like do too many shrooms.
@@TaylorMaurandbhangrai gradually expanded my experience each time I did acid, so it wasn’t like this was my entry to drug lol and as I mentioned, it was beautiful and disconcerting at the same time.
Thanks guys this video has given me the best biggest laugh in ages ! ❤❤😅
Interesting! I never thought how that could help with learning languages! It's like a minor super power! Thanks for sharing Matteo!
This was hilarious! ❤ you guys
EXACTLY
As a Latino dude I I have synesthesia and I can SEE music. Every song has different colors attached to them and this is what helped me TEACH MYSELF HOW TO PLAY GUITAR. Every signature key is a different color, every note is a different color. Nick is just crazy but we can't do anything about that lol.
I also want to point out that NOT ONLY do i have synesthesia I am also RED-GREEN COLORBLIND (the most common form of colorblindness). So mine works with no "in between" colors. This means all my letters tend to be stark primary colors.
Even my wardrobe is mostly black, gray, and blue.
You and Nick have such a fun chemistry, even if you never liked each other 😂 PLEASE do an episode of INLY of Liza impressions!
This is fascinating. I have heard of this. I hear music when you two are together. ❤
Learned something new today. Thanks!!
This is so cool and I had no idea this was actually a thing!
S is purple?! S is definitely yellow!! 😄
Happy to see you talking about this. When I was a child, I thought everyone was that way too.
I am not sure I see letters with exact colours, but S is definitly more a bright one, so more yellow then purple.
Is it possible to see a range from dark to bright, with or without glow, matte, sparkling? It's that what I associate more. But I am an AuDHDer, so my mind is always doing extra circles around, I mean I am constantly associating. If I am bored I sing random.thoughts in my mind and it illustrates itself with comic-like notes on waving lines.
Yes, S is yellow. A lemony yellow. A is the color of a school bus, and Y is neon yellow. I thought everyone had their own colors and could see them in their mind's eye. We're superior beings. LOL!
@@JRR0013yes! And when I see the letter V, I see spongebob dancing. And when someone plays the Dune soundtrack, I see a bunch of tarot cards.
Hehe I agree. A very light yellow, like almost white : )
S is a golden yellow for me!
"And what do I call that?" Omg, I love you, Nick! LOL
This seems to explain artist minds. It makes sense. Nick was asking the same questions i was thinking.
I live for this banter
Mein godt, the RAGE..... Love you both!
Loved this. I’m like this too, I see all sorts of colors with music, letter and words etc. I have never known anyone else who has this
i just wanna be their friend to constantly hear this back and forth😊
I think this is really fascinating. I'd love to see an art project of a synesthete who creates an impression of what they see, for example, while listening to a song and reading the lyrics at the same time.
I sat and watched this, when you first picked the test I saw all those options and finally Googled something I've dealt with for as long as I can remember. I see subtitles when people talk, songs play, among other things. Reading has gotten harder for me over the years because I see double the amount of letters, but audiobooks and podcasts work out fabulously for me. It's more of a bubble with words scrolling in it in my "minds eye" I would say, and I thought everyone had this. Asked my husband and others, and not to that extent and most I asked not at all.
Tickertaping is what it's called, neat. 35 years on earth and only just now cared enough to Google it.
finally! Nick!! 💖
Nick is a treasure. 😂
I had never heard of this. Super interesting!
Sorry Mateo, whenever I see a video of you and Nick, I love Nick a little bit more 🤣
The CORRECT opinion
2.00 I just looved that eye roll Nick...classic😂😂
Remember, Nick is your go to for all medical emergencies!!!🤣😊😁🤙
Omggggg!!!! I swear it's just like talking to my mother the way ol Nick just kept tearing shreds off of you!!b🤣🤣😂
I cannot get enough of these two.
I love the subtle background music of old school “Gypsy Jazz” violin … very Django Paris street music … great vibe! Also, I dream in color, 3D, and visualize spaces I’ve been in the same way, even years later … I can conjure them up in my mind, like virtual reality!
Love your new tattoo, Matteo 🧜🏼♀️
Nick is wild 😂.
This has always been fascinating to me. I don’t have it but how cool!
I have pain/mirror touch synesthesia and auditory tactile synesthesia. I also assumed everyone had it, didn't know until I was in my 30's that it wasn't normal. Wish I had the cool color one.
😢
Nick is that best friend you keep around to humble you
omg you two!!! hilarious
I have synesthesia too, love seeing it talked about! Of all the stuff that’s wired differently in my brain synesthesia is my favorite one!
Funny as it was, I was wishing Nick would back off a little and Matteo could get out not a complete sentence but a couple of them. 😆😂 Anything that has a test has a bit of info background on the subject, he didn't get to say anything but answer Nicks barrage Of questions he asked but his mind was made up and shut. And hilarious but I wish I could have heard more about it here now I need to research it myself.which I would have anyway, but if you're going to feature it, I wish cranky Squidward would at least let him get started lol I have this and a couple other neural things that happen in my brain. I was also born with a photographic memory with almost total recall, thought it was that was for everyone until I started school. Then the recall started to slowly get less as I was cramming all that other info in. But I m 62 and 20 years ago my husband, now ex, got frustrated and yelled It's not fair arguing with you!! You remember conversations word for word for YEARS!! His head about exploded when I asked, if you know my memory is that good, why do you argue with me so much? I wasn't being a jerk, it was valid question I thought. A current friend of mine yelled Yes!! He's absolutely right! When I told her he said that. And her head about exploded too, when I asked her same question. 😆😂🤣🤣
That's really interesting, Matteo!!
I love this! I have it to, but different than you. Mine is mostly that I see colors and movement (think of colored waves) when I hear music, and I hear a similar colored movement when I see things, like a painting or a landscape. Plus, days, months, and years have a spatial relationship in my head. But, the best part was Nick and his inability to understand! 😂
I have the same condition and Matteo's reaction to others criticizing is soooo relatable!!!
i have it too. i see colors when i think or see numbers. i also have something more rarely. colors have a taste too. for example red tastes like sour almost burning. always had it.
Funny and informative!
😂😂 lmaoooo Nick!! I can't stop laughing.. going to watch again!🎉
A girl I went to high school with has synesthesia and she was amazing at learning languages! Just like Matteo, she said the visual cues of colors made it easier for her to learn. I thought it was fascinating and would have so many fun questions if I were Nick 😂
I have synesthesia, Matteo! Grahame synesthesia. You see the colors in your mind's eye. I know Nick, people look at me like I'm nuts when I tell them that A, C, and Y are bright yellow. I also see the dates of the week in different colors, names of the months, numbers. I think school was easier for me because of the synesthesia. I'm also a musician and singer and see colors (sometimes) with music.
I was definitely more on Nick's side for this video LOL
That being said, there's a lot of interesting things i think i'd ask, so, Matteo, if you're replying to youtube comments: how does your synesthesia works across different alphabets? Like, do you assign similar colors between regular letters and the greek equivalents? Or what about the Japanese alphabets, or other Asian ones? Also, do accents ("e" vs "é") change the colors of letters? Also, also, is your color association more of a graphical thing (so similar shapes would have similar colors), or does phonetics also play a factor in it (so if differently-shaped letters sound the same, they have similar colors)? Also, also, also, does the choice of font play any part in the color? Like, do Comic Sans letters have different colors than the Arial ones?
Oh. Just tried to imagine that last one with the style, and I would say the more clear the style is the more clear the colour gets. Those oldstyly gothic look is a wishy-washy orange-brown matt with a shadow over it, comic glows in a shiny smurf-blue.
The questions about vividness of the scenes in your head are really associated with aphantasia, which I have! I cannot see anything in my head. When I close my eyes I can describe things in words, but I don’t see anything. I only realized as an adult that when people said they “pictured” things in their heads, they were not being metaphorical.
i have it too. colors and music and memories have a taste-smell-color. things i like are usually in the green/blue spectrum. yelllow and red are usually icky things.
i have this, but only for days of the week. It's very strong. When I think of a day, I see a colour. Monday is dark blue, Tuesday is orange, Wednesday is green, Thursday is brown, Friday is light blue, Saturday is yellow and Sunday is red. Always has been since a child :)
Matteo is so talented and cool!
Give me life! I needed you to post ❤ yay 😁 🎉
Matteo: I’m doing this video with my best friend.
Nick: Who??
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The way the Nick makes Matteo laugh is everything
In my undergrad my friend was the best student in our Latin class. She just ran circles around me in that subject. She told me that due to her synesthesia all the suffixes were colour-coded for her, making them much easier for her to remember. I cannot speak form personal experience, but it is interesting that Matteo also found it helpful with language acquisition.
I have syNICKthesia- complaining about my friends "fake" "condition" 😂
OK, boys, it’s me, Timothy,again.
When I see or hear you two together, though I don’t have the condition, I see fun and intelligence and comic engagement. Please keep it up!😂
Nick is not having it today lol Give this man his iced coffee asap 😅❤
"With friends like these, who needs enemies?" 😂😂
