my brain!

20000hz squarewave

OW! I could hear it...

B.S. I can hear it, and I'm 97.

-1

I can hear it, but it doesn't bother me or anything.

This is actually a 8,000 Hz sound you're playing ... http://img353.imageshack.us/img353/4391/80002yh.jpg

I can hear it, and it hurts my ears like hell.

wtf why did I do that Anyway, that mp3 was posted on the digg comments, people had varying results of hearing it/not hearing it/driving their dogs nuts. For me, my mother cannot hear it, but it drove my brother nuts

going back through audacity, generating a tone at 18000hz produces the same noise. Either audacity is not giving me correct numbers or you're getting bad numbers.

damn that noise hurts. btw, 5 for bringing some sort of intelligence thats also interesting to ytmnd. nice

OH GOD IT BURNS

I could hear it but my or brother couldent! 5'd

I heard my f*cking hairs realign when that sound when off, and that hurt like a bitch. Thanks. 5'd anyways, thanks for the ringtone.

i heard it, i want that as my ringtone man, new sound of 2006...snoop's gonan be jealous

That was cool. I think my ear might be bleeding though. I hope there's not some secret blaring noise after a few seconds because I'm linking friends to this.

Argh

ouch, yeah, i can hear it

Been done, and been debunked

It wears me out after a bit. Also, I hear two components? One is a werrr werrr werrr werrr werrr and the other is the a louder version of the high-frequency sound I hear in active televisions.

You just killed my dog.

+1

i'm 19 and couldn't hear it. it sucks being old for your age and not even being 21.

+1

Already done

I can hear it, but I can live.

Gave me three erections...

Is the sound really quiet? I mean I can only hear it if I turn my speakers up to a sound so loud that any normal sound would break my ears.

*Screams profanity* Yes, yes I can hear it... >_<

I'm 19 and can only hear it barely if I turn my speakers ALL the way up

I'm 14, and I can't hear it. :(

Go you.

lol. also, car park owners in britain have set up loudspeakers in their car parks so that if too many youths stand around and socialise in the car park they can play barry manilow to get rid of them

Jesus that is annoying. Im 27 btw. 2* for hurting my ears.

It's not too annoying.

i'm in an extremely loud band... so i have some permanent hearing damage. i am 23, i wasn't able to hear it until i turned my speakers up really loud. but i did eventually hear it. CRAZY.

i can't hear it, and i'm 20. guess thats what you get for listening to the rap music.

im 16... i just hear like a clicking every minute or so

strange. couldn't hear it and I'm 18. interesting nonetheless.

very unpleasant to listen to, I wish it worked the other way oaround so I could play a low frequency sound to keep the old folks out...

wow i can't believe i listened to that just to see what the next frame would say... painful

Great.... My ears are ringing, and I'm under 25...

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

I just heard a buzzing sound like a fly, not some high pitched whine...

I hate that sound. A family friend installed it as a cat scarer to stop them crapping in his garden, and wondered why I was suddenly leaning on his wall going "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH" f*cking sound.

For love of all that's holy, make it STOP!

1 for no sound included

i hear it and i'm 82

thank god im still young 23 ftw

I hear it I'm 22. any one not able? Im going to ask my older cooworkers.

I can hear it, and I like it.

Dude, my speakes started smoking after I played that. That's a serious fire hazard

I couldn't hear it at all but I think it still gave me a headache

I heard it my ears feel horrible... but my mom could hear it, she's like 40. so fail until I get proof

Yeah, I could hear that. Didn't bother me.

Time to kill everyone older than 25!

Ahh.... That noise... It hurts my head so much... (By no means is this a bad ytmnd. :) 5'd for being interesting!)

I could hear it, and my brain began to implode. my mom however could not hear it at all.

My eyes! The googles do nothing. But my ears don't hear anything ^_^

Yeah, it totally doesn't hurt. Just adds more pressure to my sinueses

weirddddddddd

the sound goes in and out for me

Of course I can heart it

ouch, my ears hurt

I just a frequency analysis with Cool Edit. It's 18000. http://img213.imageshack.us/img213/8683/analysis0qc.jpg

Btw I am 25 and I hear it perfectly.

i thought it was a joke, till i played it for my wife and she could not hear it.

It hurts. But I hear it. That's awesome they use it for ringtones.

Gives me a headache...and I am well over 25.

couldnt hear it

The movie Irreversible employed a 20 Hz rumble which is also used to disperse riots and make ppl nauseated, I thought it sounded cool, and I donwnloaded the soundtrack.

Yeah, I can hear it. Annoyed the sh*t out of me back in high school when I was in a classroom with an unused TV and the teacher didn't realize it was TURNED THE HELL ON AND MAKING WHINY f*ckING NOISE

Also one time I was in a doctor's waiting room and there was this high-pitched (not this high but high) and LOUD AS ALL HELL noise coming from somewhere in the room...must've been hours before someone realized it was coming from THE OLD GUY'S HEARING AID

Been done, it sounds like a crappy tv being turned on.

ahhh f*ck, I had my headphones on and it was set to low yet it f*cking kills my brain, its like someone sticking a knife in your eardrum!

That's NO GOOD.

shoudlnt the best effect be a mixing of like 18000 and 18002 or something? i dont remember

hmmm i cant hear it and im 16, ill try another version of the file

wow, thats pretty cool... glad i can hear it :)

i still heard it for a few seconds after i left the page

cant hear it, slow gif.

Ya i could hear it... its the same sound that plays when a TV is left on without a signal... i can hear a tv from like across the house, and my parents can't

Perfect, all that needs be said.

So that's the noise, eh? It's not THAT bad. But I like how kids are using it as a ring tone.

I hear it, but it doesn't really bother me. It's actually sort of soothing.

i can hear it but it doesnt bother me much because i have a disease where my ears constantly ring, so im used to it

Years of listening to my walkman, discman, and Ipod have saved me the excrutiating ordeal of hearing this sound. I am now a teen of immunity. Shopkeepers cannot defeat me. I am their worst nightmare.

wow i can't really hear it and i'm 21

I can hear it. Go me. You? You get a 2.

20, I can hear it very distictly but faintly, and doesn't bother me as much as some of you apparently...

Was it playing the whole time or did it kick in a certain time? Im 26

I'm 30.....and it sounds like a heard of west nile mesquitos. I guess I'm not going deaf

I could hear it, and I'm 30. It failed. Oh you get a 4.

I just heard clicking when i turned my volume up.Hope you teens enjoyed that pain i couldnt.

i can hear it but it doesnt realy seem to bother me.

I hear it and i'm 25.

Oooh. I like that noise.

my mother couldnt hear it but it gave me a headache

I'm getting tired of these sites.

sh*t, dead ears

I can hear it at 21, I can also sense a TV being left on four rooms away, same thing.

I'm 17, and I couldn't hear anything.

I'm 27 and hear it. :D

I can hear it, but it doesn't bother me at all. I kinda like the sound.

aaaaaaah holy sh*t my ears

aye, aye be 15 an' aye hear it. it doesnt do crap. just sounds like high pitched white noise.

I can't hear it, but I have a headache? (I'm a teenager)

I couldn't hear it (I'm 25) then I turned my speakers to 11 and could hear it but it hurt my ears so much I immediately turned it back down.

I guess I'll never hear it, then. And I'm only 16 :/

i'm 31 and i definately hear it.

My ears!!

Interesting read, nice find.

woo hoo , i'm not old after all

Damn that's annoying.

Lol, I was gonna make a ytmnd like this, but never got around to it. gg

that sound is horrible, it made me feel sick

is it suppossed to be crackily, like little snaps? If so...

"i can hear it but it doesnt bother me much because i have a disease where my ears constantly ring, so im used to it" Yeah, I suffer from tinnitus too. Anoying as hell =/

jesus christ that hurts

Yea I can hear it after I turn up my volume. Kinda cool how the idea backfired on em'. I'm suprised they have started using the "Mosiquito" here in the US yet. It'd be great to keep the hoodlums from parking thier fat asses in front of the local 7/11.

I can hear it, but it's really not that bad... I guess it just has a slight effect on me!

25 and I can hear it, but my best friend, who's older by three months, can't. I WIN!

Too much sound lately's made it less apparant/made me hear other sounds right now...

OW f*cksh*tCOCKASS

ouch!

I'm still young!!

I can't hear it and im 19...

oh nm i heard it but i had to turn my headphone vol up to way way loud.

So this must be the origin. It seems to make it to the news http://eeh.ytmnd.com

I could hear it when I turned it all the way up, but when my speakers are at anything lower then an 8 I can't hear it. I am 21.

can't hear it =

I can hear it loudly, but it isn't THAT annoying.

i heard about it, damn that noise

After going to the comment page, I could still hear the sound. >

my ears are hurting (and yes i can hear it)

My ears kind of hurt now. X_X

It's not that bad.

16 years, and I can hear it, but it doesn't bother me. Maybe it has something to do with me playing games that have bombs going off every 3 seconds on max volume too much. :l Oh, and I used that sound to torture my younger brother. "fetch me a 7up or get buzzed!"

Agh, so annoying. No wonder kids stayed away from those shops.

MY EARS! THEY BLEED!

i hear it but i wonder how loud it sounds to other people... it was REALLY quiet

I've heard about this, but never got to hear it. Awesome, it hurts!

I had heard of that before, but the cell phones were a nice touch

ARGH... it made me soil myself T_T

It stopped working because digg.com deleted it.

I can't hear sh*t. But I suddenly had a headache.... Weird.

BTW, I'm 11. Just for reference. I just know some1 is gonna use this info against me, but why the f*ck would I care?

just keep listening to it. you will feel the pain.

this has screamer written all over it, I watched it and know it's not ha, but it may deter a lot of people

dang

lol that is pretty smart... And yeah I heard it.. right in my headphones >.

Teenager repellent, that's the most interesting and beautiful thing I've heard of in recent years. 5 for showcasing it.

I heard it. It hurt my ears.

AAAGH! Owow!

That Blew my f*cking ears out. Dude, them using this to drive away teens is wrong, if it comes to the US I'm gonna be PISSED.

downloaded the sound and it worked, but the ytmnd itself doesn't work. Thanks for making me think I'm going deaf *ssh*l*e.........

Yes, I can hear it... I can hear it up to like, 60000khz...

It just sounds like a running television... I guess I'm to old?

I'm an old fart. No.

That isn't the real noise. I can barely here the actual noise but this one is loud as hell.

I can hear it... I can see how useful it will be to taking over the world. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

I can hear it. Thats freakin annoying. Hmmmmm, maybe I should set it as my ringtone.........

thank god i wasn't wearing headphones

Yeah, I can hear it.

i cant hear it !!! :(

I'm 21 and I can't hear it. I can feel my ears tingle a little though.

My ears hurt....

I hate that noise...

Suspected a "scare" site, but instead I got information. Sweet!

Just turned 25, now I can't hear it! Sweet!

I'm 20 and I can hear that sh*t, it's certainly annoying.

Informative FTW :)

im 17 and nothin. im an uber pwner

I can hear it, but very slightly. It has this soft piercing feeling but it doesn't annoy me.

OMFG OWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Yeah I can hear it, but it's not skull-burstingly painful like the noise at my local train station. It's bizarre that older people can't hear it. I'm 21 now - so when I hit 25 I'll suddenly stop being able to hear it, for some reason...

I hear it but it's really faint.

Oh, and I'm 25 and it hasn't magically stopped yet.

LOUD NOISES!

thanks for the damn ear rape

One starred for a lame joke. There is obviously no noise being played. Self-verifying joke, but still a stupid joke. What, are you twelve? Grow up.

i couldn't hear it that much...im 16 wtf

im 20 i could faintly hear it but i suppose it might have something to do with working on construction sites the past 2 years of my life... damn

i can still hear it at 24

we should have this sh*t on here for the bastard downvoters.

I hear it, but it doesn't hurt.

Whatcha gonna do brother??!

my ears just got brutally raped.

i'm 20, i can hear it, its not bad

i can hear it

are you sure this works? my mother just listened to it, she said she heard a high pitched "eeeeeeeee" noise

You have to turn it up to hear it. It's very annoying then. I'm 36 and I hear it fine...seems stupid to play this in a store if older people like me can hear it too.

Wait- do they play that sound in America, too? Because I swear I've heard thatnoise just start playing when I'm in certain buildings. Anyways, 5 for information. I'm 22 BTW.

I can hear it in one ear. Think I'm going a little deaf.

Why do all these kids use it as a ringtone? To 'hide it from the adults' in school? Never heard of vibrate mode? LOL

5'd. drew my dog nuts

oh god my brain.... ow..

yeah my monitor makes that noise.Also plenty of 30 year olds I know can hear that still just fine

AAH!! I can hear it... probably not for much longer though... listening to this probably kills your high-frequency response, considering it is painful to the ears.

ouch lol

Old... And I still can't stand the noise for over 3 seconds.

they have this at my college campus looooooooooooool >:( pwns my *ss everytime i walk in to study

19 and can hear it. Yay.

ugh

Why would this drive us away from places? What, do they think we're animals? MOST OF US ARE SENTIENT BEINGS AWARE OF THE FEELINGS OF OTHERS, PEOPLE.

I can't hear it. :(

Very interesting.

I gotta try this on people I know

I use to be able to... =(

i dont hear it. 3 for effort.

Oh yeah! NOW I can hear it.

I heard it quite easy and im 28.............good ytmnd

-1 for... like a lack of a point.

22 and I can (barely) hear it. It did make my dog chill out, though.

I can hear it and I've already had the audio file on my computer for a year.

I can hear it but I've heard theses things before so it doesn't bother me as much. But now that I think of it my ears are kind of ringing right now.

Makes me dizzy.

I can hear it. Very annoying. I also half expected a screamer.

it is like a constant flick, doesnt really hurt, but pisses you off and alerts you.

That explains it! I would always get pissed off when people left TVs on but there was no input. This happened all the time at school. I would come in and be like "Why is the TV on?" and the Teacher woudl argue that it wasnt on. I also complained that my dad left the TV on when he went to bed. None of these people could hear that noise. I thought I was crazy.

Wow my friend needs to know about this. He is the only one in his home who can tell that the TV is on, even though the screen is completely black. His mother and father dont believe him... Ha!

22, heard it albeit it's not really annoying. Here's something fun to try. If you have a cathode ray tube television or monitor (the ones with a really large back to them) unplug them and plug them in, and see if you hear a difference. You should, and you probably won't even realize it's been there. Cathode ray tube displays use 70% of their power keeping themselves warm, the reason being so when you turn them on they light up faster. 5* for something interesting.

Freakin hurts my ears. Shoot. >_

23 and could hear it clearly. :(

I heard it. Hurts my ears.

Awesome. You win.

Dear f*cking christ that's annoying.

im 23 and my parenst are 50 and they could hear it no problem

I can verify this, heard this sound various times in my hometown in Yorkshire which is seemingly populated my the conservative living dead, who'd quite happily set up some kind of laser turret device if it kept the chavs away. Hell, actually, that'd be pretty cool.

That's really..interesting. 5.

24, can hear it, but it's bearable (although it gets a bit tiresome to listen to after a while).

this site be all "zweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee..."

Wow, just listened again, and this time I can hear beats (rippling) in it. Is that from compressing the sound or something? O_o

Aww f*ck! My godamn ears! X_X I can still hear it ringing... speed up the gif, so this torute doesn't have to be endured just to see it all! XD

It made my neck hurt

my ears are still burning

5 stars for sweet facts -2 stars for being really old -1 for giving me a headache

I have this as my ringtone, gets annoying.

OWWW!!!

I hear it. :)

can't hear it

I can't hear it oh wait I'm in firefox nevermind.

I CAN'T HEAR SH*T! -beethven charles

People seriously can't hear this? In a year, I'll be 25. If I check again and don't hear anything, I'll be quite disturbed.

I can't hear it, but I bet with my speakers up so loud, I'm bugging the HELL out of my family...

I like how the noise changes in pitch if you turn it up alot, this had alot of comments on 6-6-6 >:D

TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOUR HEAD TURN YOU

Weird. I can actually hear this, and I'm old.

I'm 18 and I hear it perfectly.

I can hear it, but it's not too annoying.

im almost 22. 6 months ago I could hear this perfectly. Now I can barely hear it... wierd
