Richard Riggs, from Yakima in Washington State was born colour blind but after a recent bump to the head, can now see clearly.He told Kima TV: ‘As a 70 year old man I fall quite a lot, as a matter of fact, cause my legs are not strong. I've been colorblind since I was born, and at age 70 I see colors of the rainbow now.
Richard added: ‘The old-fashioned Walt Disney slogan was “The world is a carousel of color”. I get it now. I'm seeing the world that way.’

A doctor told Kima TV that he was unable to explain Mr Riggs’ new-found sight, but speculated that he may just be perceiving colors differently.
