Blind Father Gets His Dreams Fulfilled, Drives Car For The First Time In His Life
Many people take everyday tasks for granted, as nothing prevents us from doing so. Unfortunately, we all do not have such luck in life.
Bart Hickey was born blind, but this did not stop him from doing what he wanted to do in his life. He always wanted to become a mechanic, because he was simply in love with good cars, but he had another great desire.
His son Brendan was well aware of his dad's wish. That's why he joined with Mercedes-Benz, and together they realized the dreams of his father Bart.
Even though Bart has been a mechanic for 30 years despite his blindness, he has never even driven a car in his life. He always wanted to sit in a prestigious sports car one day and enjoy driving. Now they have fulfilled his desire!
Mercedes-Benz has prepared a surprise for a blind mechanic from Alsip, Illinois, which he will not forget for a long time. In the midst of the desert he was seated in the Mercedes-AMG GT R, and he drove the car completely alone in the presence of his son Bart. They surpassed the speed of 125 mph (200 kph), and the honest satisfaction of the blind father will make even your day better!
