We all saw different colors, not as someone who is color blind, like what if the color purple you see is the different than what I see. What if your purple is what I call Green. What if my red is what you call blue. :?

Actually, it's very likely that we all see the same colours of light in the same formations, however...

Our perception of colour depends much on the society we live in and the words we have for it. In some societies, there is no "blue" or no "green", and colours such as those are commonly confused - why? Because they only have names for colours in various different shades, but not hues, and so in turn cannot tell colours, which are with the same shade and saturation, apart even if they all have varying different hues. It's just what they grew up learning. It's different in varying places, and even some places didn't have names for certain colours until more traveling and wider spread of information, so those colours didn't exist... "blue" and "green" being the same thing is a common example of this.

I've thought about that a few times. But I doubt it'd work that way as I see what colours people are telling me what they see.

All humans see the same color spectrum, unless they've got some kind of vision disorder (like colorblind people.) What I often wonder about is, what if someone discovers a color that has never been seen before?

"Pink" is what a colour that we cannot see appears as.

It's unlikely there are any "different colours" that aren't defined by society, as our eyes will be incapable of seeing it, most likely and register it as merely pink.

I saw a video about this on Vsauce...
It'd be weird if this were true.
But sadly, there's no proof that it is true.
But there is also no proof that it isn't true, either. (At least I don't think there is..)
