You and someone you've never met are placed in a small room and told to keep your eyes completely shut, and if you open them at all until dismissed, you owe the organization that put you both in that room $100. You are also told that if you catch the other person opening his/her eyes, you will earn $100. Have fun.
What if your sense of color perception was screwed up? I mean, what if what you thought was "blue" was actually "green" to everyone else? Like, the sky was actually what you think green is in everyone else's eyes, but there's no way to prove yourself wrong? And you wouldnt be able to compare it with anything else that was blue, because it would all look green to you. For example, what if this, which is what you see as "green", meant what you see as "Red" to everyone else in the world but you? But you were raised to believe that that color of the trees and grass and plants is defined as "Green". So, all the grass and trees and plants are actually Red, but in your eyes, theyre not. You'd say, "Those are green.", and no one in the world would disagree. And you would never, ever know that you are wrong...
