Anderson Cooper Goes Blind
I think that I could definitely live without my hearing, but I think I would freak out if I lost my sight. I just don't know if I could handle that. Anderson Cooper was filming a report for 60 Minutes in Portugal and had sunlight reflecting in his eyes off of water for most of the day. He sunburned his retinas. The same kind of thing can happen when sun bounces off snow and burns your retinas. Anderson says he woke up in the middle of the night and his eyes were on fire. Guess he will wear sunglasses in the future. The problem is that when you are filming, you can't wear them so then it is a matter of putting them on and taking them off between takes.
