They say you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. A homeless man living in Canada certainly proved this after going viral for his special talent.
Ryan Arcand of Edmonton, Canada left people speechless with his piano playing abilities. Arcand played a special tune on a piano that was placed in a public square to encourage people to play.
A bystander named Roslyn Polard recorded the moment and shared it on her YouTube page. It quickly received millions of views.
Many viewers also wrote positive comments about Arcand under the video, including one who shared the famous proverb, “Do not judge by appearances; a rich heart may be under a poor coat.”
Another said, “This is the perfect kind of tune you can close your eyes to and simply get lost in it’s melody. Beautiful!”
After the video went viral, Arcand received a lot of media attention for the talent that he picked up as young kid.
“It was as though we were meant for each other,” Arcand told CBC of playing piano. “You’re looking at the piano and you’re falling in love with it.”
