Best Answer

Deaf people sense vibration in the part of the brain that other people use for hearing - which helps explain how deaf musicians can sense music, and how deaf people can enjoy concerts and other musical events. These findings suggest that the experience deaf people have when 'feeling' music is similar to the experience other people have when hearing music. The perception of the musical vibrations by the deaf is likely every bit as real as the equivalent sounds, since they are ultimately processed in the same part of the brain.

While deaf people do not enjoy music in the same way that hearing people do, they can feel the vibrations with their skin, especially if the music is sufficiently amplified or is conducted by means of a chair that is designed for that purpose.

No deaf means that you can't hear.

Another answer:

Deaf people can still "listen" to music by touch, if it's loud enough to cause surfaces around them to vibrate.

They can see it, the lack of sound can hone a deaf person's vision to hawklike proportions. They can notice the slightest vibrations of the sound ricocheting off of items around them. This is the exact reason why deaf people can not hear dogs either.

Thomas Edison listened to music through his teeth. Helen Keller listened through her feet. Most hearing impaired people use hearing aids. Many with damage to their ears can still listen through their sculls.

Sound waves cause vibrations that can be felt. Since they are deprived of the sense of hearing, their sense of feeling is stronger.
