      Sounds like an experiment you’ll have to try out and find out…

      Blind, deaf and dumb I’d say. Sounds like a risky experiment!
      Well, if time stops everything stops so nothing at all happens anymore and we’re all left in a sort of limbo or suspended animation.
      Anyway, nobody has even the faintest idea of how to stop time … fortunately!

      This question has started a bit of a debate in my office! We recon YES, you would go blind. Mostly because your ability to process what you see takes time, and if time has stopped you wouldn’t be able to process what’s right in front of you.
