The noise is made by the use of the tongue, roof of the mouth and cheeks.

Does he just make the clicking noise with his tongue?

He uses echolocation to navigate.  He can also play video games on TV's even
with his back turned toward the TV.  It is based on the same princial as
either a bat or a dolphin uses to find its way.

Not sure how this guy does it just by sound, but here's a vid on a blind
skateboarder. I'd like to know how he knows when to turn.
