00:00What would happen if you stopped blinking for one minute?
00:02The urge becomes unbearable.
00:04Your tear ducts panic and flood your eyes with water just to keep them safe.
00:08At 10 minutes, that protective layer evaporates into the air.
00:11A sharp, stinging burn sets in as the oxygen touches your raw eyeballs.
00:15One hour in, your eyes turn a deep, angry red.
00:18Tiny blood vessels swell up and burst from the strain of staying open.
00:21Twelve hours, dust particles land on your eye, but they are trapped.
00:25It feels like someone is rubbing coarse sandpaper directly against your brain.
00:2824 hours, your vision fades into a guilty water to live, dries out completely, and begins to die.
00:34At 48 hours without blinking, the internal fluid in your eyes evaporates and pressure drops to zero.
00:41Without that structural support, the eye physically collapses inward and wrinkles like a dried grape.
00:46By day three, dangerous bacteria start eating the dry spots.
00:49Open sores and painful ulcers form deep inside the tissue, leaking infection.
00:54One week in, the damage is now permanent and irreversible.
00:56Your eyes are destroyed and you are left completely, legally blind.
