Blind Karate Black Belt

Connecticut -- 47-year-old George Sanchez from Middletown lost his sight at the age of 3. Now, after passing his test, he is a karate black belt.

After four years of hard work, he passed the test together with his son Timothy, 10.

"You're exceptional, but there were no exceptions for you," one of the teachers said to him at the ceremony. "No special treatment when performing. It was a challenge to teach. We learned multiple teaching styles."
