What if you are deaf?

Hi everyone. I am begining to slowly figure out what the ISIS is, but I want to test the waters here in case I am dead wrong. So I will ask a question, and you be the judge whether it is OK to answer it:

Can a deaf person succeed in solving this puzzle, other than with sheer luck of course?

And if you think that this question is appropriate, you'll probably like the next one:

Can a blind person succeed in solving this puzzle?

Thank you and happy thumbnuckling!

I can do it with my ears blocked and my eyes closed, although it is more difficult. However, first time I did it was with my ears unblocked and eyes open so I have a head start :lol: :lol:

I don't want to give too much away :wink:

Once you have de-cyphered all the clues you will know the answers to both your questions...

A deaf and blind person could probably be better at opening the ISIS (clues in braille for blind person) than someone with all their senses. Their lose of one or more of those senses would heighten their others.

The Blind person could feel the engraved heiroglyphs, and a deaf person could feel the vibrations of the bearings rolling around.
